CAUGHT OUT.

The Chronicle has been badly
caught out in it's stand on the i'm
migration question. Its PROPOSE
ton is that the Democracy is al
ways ready to welcome with open
arms any European who wants to
seek a home in America.
II the Democracy OF Nevada
really means this then let it GO into
the campaign on this issue and
make square fight for its princi-
pies.
The AfPEAL is informed that re-
Gently Italians have arrived in this
country who have hired them
selves out to ranchers and signed
contracts to work for one year for
$i5 year and their clothes and
board.
Is this the sort of people the
Democracy OF Nevada wants to
welcome into the midst of an intel
ligent community where the slavery
OF labor is unknown?
How would the Miners Union OF
Storey like to have few thousand
of S45-a-year miners welcomed to
Storey county to take the places OF
$5-a-day men in the mines?
What particular class of voters
does the Chronicle expect to catch
by such talk as it has OF late been
INDUCING in?
When it says that the foreigners
now here want their relatives to
come over and share the good !
things of the country it torgets that |
the Americans of the United States
also have worthy relatives to pro-
vide for, and our American rela-
tives ought to be the first to receive
our attention.

strange policy readily accounts for

while her rich lands lie waste. By
special treaties with France and Eng

her manufactures in competition
with the accumulated capital and inn

that controlled the nomination three
years ago when Mr.. Smiley was
nominated, were in control OF the

that as Mifiin county had gone for
Smiley three years ago, Smiley
would now go for the Mifflin county
