.votion to the Federal Union, and to the Con-
stitution of the United States and it's amend
ments and hereby readopts the principles of

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND INpoRsED.
We congratulate the country upon the sue
cessful administration of President Cleve-
land.
He has maintained the peace and dignity Of
the nation; has upheld Public Credit; las re-
duceI public expenses; has restored millions
of acres to the public domain, and has Impair
TALLY enforced the laws throughout the length
and breadth of the land.
Under his wise and benefcent admiuistra-
ton the whole country is enjoying remarkable
prosperity and all sectional feeling has been
Ubliterated.
The Democracy of Nevada recommend hi
denomination, and invite all libcral-minded
men, irrespective of past party predilections,
TO unite with them i'll re-electing him.
THE TARIFF QUESTION.
We fully opprove of the efforts of the Demo-
cratic Representatives in Congress to perform
tho pledge made 10y the last National Demo-
cratic Convention to reform and remove taxes,
to the end that the labor of the country be re-
lieved Of onerous and unnecessary burdens.
We denounce the present tariff system, which h
creates an annual surplus of Sl55 600 900 in the
National Treasury, by taxing the every day
necessities of our farmers, miners and labor
ers for the benefit of protected Eastern mGnu-
faSturcrs 80 for every dollar that goes into tho
Treasury, and which does not protect the la
borer. We declare that taxation should DO
limited to the requirements Of governments,
and that the burden of taxation should rest
upon those who use luxuries rather than upon
those who use only the necessaries of life.
FREE COINAGE OF SILVER ADVOCATED.
We favor the free coinage Of silver now en-
jOyed by gold, or, in lieu thereof, the right Of
deposit in all of the Mints Of gold and silver
bul ion, for which certificates shall be issued

ADVISING THAT RATES BE ADVANCED.
THE ROADS WEARY OF THE RATE CONTEST
PRESIDENT spFNCER's VIEWS.

The executive committee of the trunk lines has
recommended TO the Central Traffic Association Of the
Western railroads that freight rates be advanced 10
those prevailing prior TO June 1, and to cancel all
commodity tariffs that had been approved by the Joint
executive committee OF the Eastern and Western lines
Railroad men are hopeful that the Western roads Will
take favorable action on this recommendation, and
meeting of the Western committee Is expected to be
called soon II the advance Is ordered II Is believed
that II can be put into effect by September at tho
latest The roads are weary OF their contest over
rates through season when the water lines and the
part rail and part water routes absorb large proper
ton Of the tonnage and with the crop prospects prom
ising to give a good movement for the latter part Of
the year there Is strong disposition to take advan-
tage OF It TO secure all the profits possible.
This is shown by the statement of President Spencer
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, quoted In wall
Street Yesterday. Mr. Spencer denied tho rumor
that he had held an important conference with bis
leading executive officers at the Oriental Hotel at
Manhattan Beach. Tuesday night. with reference to
Robert CARROTS affairs and condition. He explained
that he had simply received the reports Of the ocer
who had represented him at Tuesdays conference at
the Commissioners Office I'm Broadway. Mr.. Spencer
added There is no reason why all our roads should
not obtain fun rates. and speaking officially can
say that there Is enough business In sight for the
next ninety DAYS to give the trunk lines all they can
carry at the rates which by law they arc lustihed
In cXacng.'
