tiOn has Done for the state.
Main Street at Cob ms corner
was Illuminated last evening by
a blazing fire to which was sup
plemented several smaller ones
by boys in the vicinity. A
band discussed stirring strains
in the Opera House which was
filled with people despite bad
weather. The Carson Glee Club
gave well rendered piece OF
music which contained a mum.
Der of local hits On Senator Fair
which were received with APP
plause by the audience.
Ex-senator Stewart being in
troduced, spoke as follows:
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
We meet as is customary On
these occasions to discuss poll
tics. For more than q year we
have witnessed the proceed
jngs of a Democratic Executive.
Have we anything to commend
in that administration: Ha We
their promises been kept? Have
they done anything as they
agreed? In early times we had
mail routes to give mail facil-
tiles in the new districts to
help the country, but a Demo-
cratic administration cut them
down in the interest of economy.
We had a Mint here for twenty
years ana the Democrats closed
it, probably to get the credit of
starting it again. Some years
ago when the Mint was estab-
lished it was opposed on the
score of economy. was then
in the Senate, l admitted that
the cost was something, but we
were not weighing cost against
good in public measures. l
told them we had been voting
for their Eastern measures and
they ought to be some reciproc-
ity. We got the Mint. Econ
emy is not always the thing to
talk of in the management of
public affairs. Hendricks, the
ablest speaker in the Demo-
cratic party spoke and the bur-
den of his song was against the
lookup in the Treasury. Theft
have $500, 100000 locked up
and the industries of the coun-
try are paralyzed.
SILVER.
They have made! a move on
the poor mans msney, silver
They want to demenetize sill |
yer. Why? To double the
worlds Indebtedness. The
hackers of Cleveland, the bond
holders of Wall Street, asked
to do this and he has
the country to hard
times in obedience to their be-
hests. If you who are IN favor
of silver will unite. the fight
can be carried in Congress now.
+ rance stood by silver oy the
enactment Of laws which caused
silver to flow to France. England
demenetized silver and the Gun.
ming bondholders caused the
repeal of the French law.
America was humbugged also,
and a bill Struggled through.
You know the history of that
Infamous trickery to cripple the
Interests of the West. Some
say that if we remonetize silver
We will be flooded with it.
Well suppose flood Of 5000
100 or so came in on us. 1t
would have to come somewhere
md would help make us pros
porous. They cannot repudiate
ilver entirely in Europe with
,ut bankruptcy to the country.
Were we to pass free coinage
aw, the bondholders' conspiracy
would be broken up, and in one
:our the wires would flash the light
yer the world and silver would be
all over the world.
his silver question is an issue Of
he campaign. We would like to
lear from our Democratic friends
N this subject. Fair is big bond. J
older. We may hear from him t
ereafter; we have not heard from l
i'm yet. But you have valiant t
lan in the House. William Wood I
urn; who has made a good fight ,
or you unaided, [applause] and l |,
must admit that his predecessor, &
Ir. Cassidy, did good work. We
