Bro. Simpson Takes II Seriously.
In giving place to the following
letter, it is but fair for us to say that
the extract thar calls it forth was pen
ned by us not in spirit of ridicule,
or even harsh criticism, but simply
in the performance of our journalistic
mission-to note the prominent men
who are changing their political faith,
and the cause assigned for such action.
If we threw little sarcam in on the
"side," Bro. Simpson ought not to be
SO "touchy" about it, but remember
the days of yore, when he used to
soak his pen in gall over night that il
may be good ami sour in the morning
to whach away at political acrobats.
But, here is Bro. Simpsons grievance

From Patterson.

A correspondent of the Phoebe Re-
cord writes from Patterson as fol-
lows:
A semi-weekly stage and regular
mail have again brought us within
reach of civilization. For more than
a year past our situation in respect to
mail facilities has been wretched, as
we have been compelled to travel
from As To 10 miles to reach a post
Office.

w. NJ. Stewart know how thankful
we are to him for his determined and
successful efforts in our behalf. When
we compared his untiring labors in
the interests of the people and State
of Nevada, with the difference of our
other representatives IN both Houses
political differences are forgotten
and Democrats aud Republicans alike
unite in declaring him deserving of
all honor.
We are now able To communicate
with our county seat without our
missives having TO pass through TO
the adjoining Territories.
Mining matters are at standstill ;
the continued depression in silver Of
fering no encouragement to investors.

pennsylvania, the best protected State
IN the Union, American workmen bad
been driven out by the protected
lords and their places filled by hordes
of imported pauper lal or. The pro-
tected Industries there did not pay as
high wages as those who lad no pro-
lection at all.
HOW PROTECTION PROTECTS THE La
BORER in NEVADA.
Wool, lead. copper and borax are
the only protected industries of Ne
vada. Wool is taxed 10 per pound.
DO sheepmen pay their herders better
wages than cattlemen or ranchers, who
have no protection all No. They
pay lower wages, give poorer accom-
modations to their employees, and hire
the cheapest labor they can find. Mr..
Cassidy did not say this, but we do.
Ed. NEWS But, continued Mr.. Cas-
sldy, if protection protects the miner,
how is it that those working In lead.
copper and bOrax do not receive
higher wages than the silver miner
who has no protection at all9 He in
stanced Eureka, one of the largest
lead mining districts in the country,
and which was the first in Nevada to
reduce miners wages. This cry of
protection for American labor is a
delusion and a fraud.
Personal.
Mr.. Cassidy referred to his past
course in Congress. There ne was
the Representative of all the people of
Nevada, irrespective of party. His in.
terest aud those of the people were
the same. During the -four years of
his Congressional career he bad Sc
cured Federal appropriations for Ne
vada to the amount of 100000,
which was more than all his prede-
cessors and successor had done. If
elected, he would serve the people as
faithfully in the future as he had in the
past.
Mr.. CasSidy's speech throughout
was marked by a spirit of candor and
fairness, and devoid of abuse and per-
sonality, seldom heard upon the
stump. He held the close attention of
his audience for an hour aud half.
and at its close received the hearty ap-
planse of his hearers.
Cassidy is the man Nevada will
send to Congress.

AN INHUMAN HUSBAND.
A West Eirginian Kill His Wife Because
She Wants Bread,

WHEELING, W. Va, Oct. 1.-Two brutal
cases of wife murder have been added to
West Virginia's long list of criminal
events. Mrs. Louis Hildebrand, the hand
some young wife of a well known citizen
of the Sixth ward of this city, died at
o'clock this morning, from the effects of a
pistol shot wound inflicted by her husband
about o'clock last evening, in fit of
drunken anger Hildebrand is an employe
of the Riverside Bar mill, and Saturday
was pay day. 1t has been his custom on
drawing his money to get well soaked with
liquor before going home, and yesterday
was not an exception to the rule, His
wife met him at the door and. asked him
for money to meet current bills
and purchase food for the Sunday dinner.
Hildebrand gave her s., but as she owed
that amount in sums of 81 and 81 for nee
essaries purchased during the week she
asked for more. lie refused, and after
applying the most indecent epithets to his
wife went 10 Mrs. McCook's, next door,
and sat down. Mrs. Hildebrand followed
and succeeded in getting him back home,
where she again asked him for more
money.
Angered by her repeated request, he
drew revolver and fired at his wife. She
ran through rear room, second shot
missing her as she went, but third took
effect in her back, just under the shoulder,
and the woman pitched off rear porch
into an alley, where she wasfound.
Hildebrand cody walked cut of the front
door, threw away his pistol, and strolled
up street in full view of his neighbors. He
was arrested in half an hour by the police.
At the City Hall HildeDrand was lying
in his cell in a slight dozs when the re-
porter called him by name.
What have you got to say about the
shooting?" was asked him by the reporter.
II don't know nothing about any shoot
ing" said he; II don't even know what l
am in for"
This is about as much as could be got
from Hildebrand, except that he told the
lookup keeper that when he went home
two men were there in a barouche, and
one of them had big revolver, which he
fired off three times He has told several
other improbable stories.

uniformed Democratic clubs numbering
three hundred, passed in review and then
drew up in front to escort the party to
Liederkranz hall, where the speeches OF
the evening were to be made. A pryro

spoiled by the rain, but nearly 1900 per.
sons had gathered, packing the hall, and
the fireworks were soon forgotten ID the
speaking Mr. Watterson was intro
duced by Mayor Jacobs in a
neat speech of welcome and fol-
lowed with an address lasting over an
hour. He expressed his pleasure at being
once more among some friends and then
turned his attention to a vigorous discus
sion of the questions of the campaign
giving especial attention to recent devel-
opments in the tariff. He was succeeded
on the platform by the Hon. Boyd Win
chester, minister to Switzerland, who is on
a visit to old friends here. Both speakers
were roundly applauded throughout.
