4 NEyADAN FOX MELrER ANn Rs-
FINER.

News from Washington indicates that
John II. Dennis, late of the Tuscarora
Times-Review, and now Internal Revenue
Collector in Utah, will be appointed by
the President melter and refiner at the
Carson Mint to succeed DR.. Tuttle, who
has been transferred to the Philadelphia
Mint. Mr.. Dennis was mentioned for
the position two years ago, but as the
Mint was then closed his appointment
was not urged. 1t is stated that Senator
Stewart has personally presented the
claims of Mr.. Dennis to the President,
who will doubtless nominate him for the
position, unless, meanwhile, some hungry
carpet.bagger does not apply for it.
Major Dennis is an old resident of Ne
vada, and has ever been prominent in the
councils of the Democracy OF the State,
but if these facts become known at the
White House, they will count against
him.

INAUSPICIOUS BEGINNING.

The District of Columbia Republican
Convention met in Washington Wednes-
day for the purpose of choosing delegates
to the Republican National Convention
1t Chicago. A large number of the men,
bers were colored and they did not see
things exactly as the white politicians
wanted them to. In consequence of the
independence manifested by the colored
men the gathering was among the live
Lest Of the kind ever seen in Washing
ton. They quarreled, wrangled, Kissed
and shouted for hours and the police were
finally called in and cleared the hall. Later
in the day one of the factions met, Sc
Iected delegates and adjourned and then
the other faction met and did the same.
As this was the first convention to
elect delegates to the Republican Nation
al Convention it is looked upon as an in
auspicious beginning. Two sets OF dele
gates, each set claiming to be the duly
authenticated representatives Of Wash
ington Republication, will present their
credentials and demand admission to the
National Convention.
It is not stated in the dispatches
whether the convention split on the
celer line. the tariff, or on Blaine and
Sherman.

1 DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSMAN o.
REVENUE REDUCTION.

Representative Foran, who represents
the Cleveland, Ohio, district in Congress,
having been elected for the third time on
the Dem 1cratic ticket, expresses himself
unequivocally on the question of reduc-
ing the revenue. In letter to the
Foran club, a Democratic organization
of Cleveland, he says:
"Ali Democratic Representatives agree
that the surplus must be reduced and
that its further accumulation prevented,
but it is now conceded even by the Pres
ident's trends that this cannot be done
upon the lines laid down in the Presi-
dents message.
"a bill reducing the revenues of the
Government will surely be passed, but
this bill will surely include internal rev.
enue taxation. All legislation consists
of or is the result of compromises, and
the legislation upon the surplus will also
be the result of a compromise.
st is a mooted question among those
who have given this subject close atten.
tion and much consideration whether or
not the reduction of tariff duties lessons
the amount of revenue collected from the
articles upon which the tariff tax is re-
sduced We are certain of one thing.
.All articles placed upon the free list les
sen the revenue just the amount now col
lected on such articles.
II favor placing upon the free list all
articles not produced in our own country
or which cannot be favorably grown or
manufactured in our own country. also
favor the adjustment of the tobacco tax
and the tax upon such spirits as are used
in medical preparations and in the arts,
if it can be done without defrauding the
Government.
''In short, / favor the reduction of the
surplus, but desire to see this accom-
plished, if it can be done, without touch.
ing or disturbing any American industry.
After this l favor such modification and
revision of the customs duties as will be
Just to consumers and establish American
Industries.
81 am not in favor of any policy by
our Government which meets the hearty
recommendation of England's ruling
classes. They do not like the Republic,
never did, never will, and, so far as am
concerned, don't care whether they do
or not. am for American goods, Amer
ican industry, American home trade first,
last and all the time"
