KIND woEDs From CASSIDY.

After all TIE mud throwcrs at
Stewart in the campaign it IS pleas
ant TO read these kind words from
Cassidy In the Eureka Sentinel:
There can be no question that
Senator Stewart is making himself
immensely popular with all the
people oil the Pacific Coast.
Through his great energy and ahili-
ty he has pushed himself right into
the hearts Of his immediate constlt-
uen.s here in Nevada, irrespective
OF party. Words in praise OF him
are to be heard On every hand.
No other man in Washington is SO
frequently and so favorably quoted
by the San Francisco press as Sena-
tor Stewart. His measures and
speeches and opinions are referred
to by all papers, and quite frequent
ly from the basis OF leading editor
ials on current public questions.
There can he no question that the
people OF this Coast like Il man oil
activity and ability. In this view
they feel a just pride IN the efforts
of Senator Stewart. In common
with the great mass of his fellow
citizens we accord with him IN the
highest degree the position OF use
fulness and industry in the dis
charge OF the duties incumbent upon
every representative of tine people.
A close observer of public men
once said to US of Senator Stewart,
in connection with his former Sena-
torial career, that he was tine ablest
and most Influential member OF
that body at that time. The est
mate may or may not have been
too high, but it is quite certain that
the Senator is starting off in q way
TO make himself felt during his pres
ent term. We are always glad to be
able truthfully to say graceful
things OF public men, because their
lot is usually hard one, and
their efforts in the main are never
half appreciated by those they
serve. Senator Stewart is q good
and useful public servant OF ability.
Regarding the stories of Jones
apathy in the Silver fight the Senti-
mel also says:
4 California paper wonders that
Senator Jones OF Nevada did not
take 2 more prominent part in the
recent silver debate in the Senate.
That is easily accounted for. The
was Senator Stewards
and ii was eminenily proper that
Senator Stewart should have charge
of the subject on the floor. 1t is,
indeed, the customary parliament
airy procedure for the author OF =
measure to DO the principal battling
for ii until it is disposed OF. The
rule is always we'll observed IN |
both Houses OF Congress. 1t would |
would not be viewed rs strictly |
courteous for i member to the det- |
riment OF his colleague. In other
words, each member is entitled to !
his Own thunder and all he can
make out OF it " the nature OF popu-
lar ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. Senator Jones
saw that the fight was being well
handled by Senator Stewart, and
such being the case it was his place
TO leave tie entire management TO
that gentleman. No doubt if a
critical moment had arrived, where
the friends of silver needed aid,
the senior Senator from Nevada
would have gotten "his oar in" in
effective shape. But it was not
and so he allowed those
who had inaugurated the contest to
fight it to a successful finish, which
was the correct thing to do from a
strictly parliamentary standpoint.
Besides, Senator Jones sowed
good seed in The interest OF silver
in his great speech some years ago.
1t is the fruits OF that speech that
are being gathered row. 1t oil
men in public life were as true and
as effective in the silver interest as
Senator Jones has proven himself
