The Republican Central Commit
tee Of California has adopted tn,
following resolution: :.
THAT the officials elected by The
Republican party should not repeal
the fol- lner reasonable practices o.
others by making a Republican
victory a sideshow for Democratic
advantages. No appointment made
to favor the Democratic boss can be
justified. Let the watchword be,
Republicans only should share in
Republican success"
This sort OF resolution reads
well in any community where good i,
solid Republicans live, move and
have their being.
The Republican party in Nevada
has, for some years past, fallcu into
the rather bad habit OF reconciliat-
ing enemies instead of looking after
its friends. The spoils Of victory
have been fought over by men who
are OF the .srevenue only" sort, and
are generally distributed to the
trimmers and policy men, who are
always skulking in the suffers tent
while the fight is IN progress.
Men who are on Ike fence until
the result is decided are generally
the first to come forward after the
matter has been settled and shout
vociferously foe the winning Ticket
and the lion's share OF the offices.
Ii they don't get them they threaten
to buck "next year," and the sopp
is generally thrown them.
Tie U. S. Mint used to be filed
up with lot OF Eastern carpet
baggars and home-ralsed Mug
wumps, and the political status OF
the institution was so poor that you
couldn't get over half dozen to
attend the primaries, without you
sent for them in hack and pad
all the expenses.
1t is time to clear the decks OF all
the old frauds aud humbugs in the
party, and the men who vote |
scratched tickets at every election. |
BY proper management the party |
in this State can be made impres-
nable, and next Spring is the time
ID commence house cleaning.
