In eight years of service in the Senate Of
this State and four years in the Con-
gress o. the United States, the records
will be searched in yaiE for a single vote
of ours against the people and for the
corporations. In the local Legislature
we voted for every bill to regulate and
lower freights TO the people; in the Ma
tional Legislature we voted for the Rea-
gan Interstate Commerce bill at every
stage and we also voted in favor of all
the land grant forfeiture bills; and the
Reagan bill was still more stringent
when we voted for it than it is now, as
the humbugging Commission feature had
not then been put upon it by the Re-
publican Senate. We do not care much

rue CLASSES vs.. rHE MASSES.

The United States market ~ the Oest
10 the world. IL is the only one we can
ever be certain of holding, and 10 give it
over to foreign rivals for the privilege
Of undertaking them for custom with
which they arc not now content, would
be a folly into which the intelligent work
ingmen Of the country are not likely to
be inveigled.-Reno Gazette.
That would be an unanswerable argu.
ment il all Of the people III the United
States were sellers. But what about
the buyers and consumers? Have they
no rights which the trusts should re-
spect. The home market cry is a cum
ming device to deceive the people while
the few are growing rich at the expense
o the many.
An article on the outside OF this issue
Of the SENTINEL will show how the
scheme has worked under twenty-five
years of Republican rule in this coun.
try. The article in question should be
read by every thoughtful person and we
direct special attention to it.
The whole wealth has drifted into the
hands of one-sixtieth Of the adult male
population. This has largely been made
possible by class legislation which is the
only living, tangible principle OF the Re-
publican party. In all Of its legislation
it strives to form a copartnership be.
tween the Government and certain OF its
citizens. 1t knows nothing else and has
no higher conception OF the true func-
tior Of Government. Its whole policy
leads unerringly to one result-the build
ing up Of the classes to the detriment
OF the masses.
Under Democratic policy there was
always an equal distribution OF the
wealth Of the land among all classes. In
1860, when the Democratic party went
out of power, there were no tramps in
the land and but two millionaires-Astor
and vanderbilt-and these had acquired
great wealth through the legitimate ap-
probation of land in New York, and
not ny OONeEuHleub ouoSiuiSS ehN ~"
iffs, which have made most Of the great
fortunes since that time. Now we have
thousands Of m%illionaires and tens OF
thousands OF tramps.
Twenty-Five years from now, it Re
publican methods and policies prevail,
the country will be divided into two
classes-the very rich and the very poor,
with the very rich striving to ape
the royalty of the Old World by acquir-
ing titles for themselves, just as we
now see them buying Peter Funk noble.
men for their daughters. Not a day nor
8 year can come without the steady and
eeaseless flow Of the wealth OF the land
into the hands OF the few, with the op'
portunities and wages of the poor man
steadily becoming less day by day.
When people shall elbow each other
more closely, and when the public lands
shall have been exhausted, and when
the vast influx of undesirable foreigners
shall become unbearable, there is likely
to be music in this country and plenty
of it. The editor or other public man
who does not realize that there must be
a radical reversal of political policies, to
stay the tide, if it can be checked at all,
cannot see to the end Of his nose.

steel Ties a nevada Invention.

Steel ties for railroads are in demand
and it is not unlikely that within the
next twenty years, they will entirely
suppIant the wooden ones now in use.
The idea is not q new one. 1t was CON.
ceived some eight or ten years ago by
Capt. A. D. Rock of Eureka, in this
State, and by permission of the Directors
he laid several rods Of steel ties on the
c. P. r. K. road bed in Oakland. Al
though the experiment was successful,
out little attention was paid to it, and
the inventor took no further steps to
carry his idea into practical effect. 1t is
more than probable that his little exeperi'
ment was the germ Of the later "inven.
ton " which bids fair to revolutionize the
railroad tie system in the United States.
It's diamonds to dumplings, however,
that the obscure Eureka surveyor will
never reap a nickel's benefit IRON his in
vention, even to the extent OF riding
deadhead over a road bedded after the
design createdby his brain.work Times

or TODAY.

We find the following in the Salt
Lake Tribune OF a recent date:
In the latter part OF August, U. ID.
Farlinger, a prominent citizen OF Eureka,
Nevada, arrived in Salt Lake City, blind
in both eyes. For months his sight had
been gradually leaving him, and it is
truly pathetic to hear him describe how,
little by little, sight faded away until at
last he was in total darkness, and he
had to be led to and from meals and
there fed. He was told that by a deli
cate surgical operation he could-if he
operation proved successful-haye his
sight restored to him. 1t then became
a question Of momentous import to him
to whom he could trust sufficiently to
allow him to operate, After numerous
inquiries cas-. and West from Dew York
to San Francisco, be decided to place
himself In the hands OF Salt Lakes
young occulist, DR.. A. w. Burrows, OF
Freeman & Burrows, who after an ex.
animation, decided to operate on the
left eye first. Accordingly the Doctor
assisted by his partner, DR.. Freeman,
and his sister, Miss Nellie Burrows, at
3 o'clock T.. u. on slonday, sept. y,
performed the operation on the left eye.
The method decided upon was "Von
Graefe's Linear" aud by $3.50 o'clock the
eye had been cut open, an iridectomy
performed, the lens extracted, all
blood clots and capsular shreds cleared
from the interior Of the eye, aal it
neatly bsaaag5d, when nc was informed
that the operation thus far was a success.
As to the subsequent progress OF the
case it is gratifying to hear Mr.. Farlin-
ger-bis face radient-describe his visit
to the Fair and his appreciation Of the
liye sEoek theFs eshihitsd, aIsa his strolli
around our city, aud how he is impressed
with the beauty 0! our new business
blocks in progress Of erection. He il
apparently enjoying the great blessing
Of sight to the uttermost. The primary
operation was so thorough that a second
cry one was not necessary a character
istic Of the Doctors surgical work
After a short visit home, Mr.. Farlinge
will return and have the eye-now to
tally b~lind-operated on. Let Us hop,
that the Doctor will be as succeasfa
with the second as with the first. As i
is an honor to Salt Lake that her sur
peons should be selected before those o

rHE ROYAL nREMERY.
The Greatest Institution Of th'
Kind I'm the world.

Yesterday the entire city Of Munich
was in a state OF turmoil and uproar in
honor Of the tri.centennial anniversary
Of the foundation Of the Hofbrauhaus,
or Royal Brewery. Ii was established
on 9th Of September, 1859, by Duke
William Of Bavaria, and has become one
Of the national institutions OF the coun.
try. No one who has not visited Mu.
mich can form any idea Of the grimy,
dingy tavern in which the Royal Court
beer has been retailed for the last 300
years, and which forms part of the Alte
Hof, as the ancient palace OF the Dukes
Of Bavaria is called.
There are no walters or mattresses,
everybody being expected to attend to
his own wants. 1t is q common sight TO
see Colonies, and even Generals in full
line, often behind 3 chimney-sweep or
scavenger, and wait their turn for q
stone mug, and hen proceed to rinse 1t
themselves at the tank before again
forming in line for the purpose Of having
il filed. They then take their places
at the rough deal tables. which have
done service from time i~mmemorial, and
purchase from the vendors present
slices OF wurst and schwarz bread.
II will naturally surprise most people
that great ~personages should be ready TO
put up with so much trouble and dis
comfort for the sake Of a mere mug OF
beer. A draught of the latter, however,
is all that is required by way Of explain
alton. The brew is truly royal and
every way worthy Of the ancient by
nasty Of Witteslbach. which produces
it. Nowhere else in the world is it pos
sible to obtain such beer, the receipt for
which was obtained by the Ducal foun-
der from the famous brewer, Degern-
berg, and has been kept a State secret
ever since. The net profit Of the Hof-
~brauhaus-the beer being only sold at
retail and to be drunk on the premises
amounts to about 5000 0 or 81 ,0OO,-
600 per annum. and constitutes an i'm
portant source Of private revenue to the
reigning sovereign Of Bavaria-New

NEvADA's BULLION PRODrCr.
what the state Has Contributed 60
the WORLDS Wealth.

The Virginia Chronicle abiding to the
admission of Nevada as a State, says
reference to the ammount contributed to
the worlds wealth in gold and silver is
both relevant and interesting. The
total bullion product from 1850 to 1870
was s2l4, $50, 900, and to date $780,
900, 600, of which $500. 000, 900 was
produced from the Comstock lode mines.
The above estimate includes the yield
Of mines operated by private capital and
the product from ore tsilings before the
passage of the bullion tax Act, OF which
there is no record.
The estimate Of the yield Of the Com
stock is based upon carefully compiled
statistics prepared by mining secretaries
and is considered unimpeachably reliable
by Comstock mine superintendents.
The cost OF producing the above yield
did not exceed $3.50, 900.

ANOTHER SINNER REpENrs.

Recently we had an article in the
SENTINEL giving the Republican slate for
next year in which we remarked that a
possible kicker against it might be found
in White Pine. Commenting on this
portion of our article, the News says:
1t is not at all likely that the White
Piner referred to in the SENTINEL will
trouble himself much in kicking against
the slate. He will probably stay home
attending to his herds and let the office
seekers severely alone. In times past
he has helped many ascend the ladder of
fortune and fame, but when it came his
turn to be rewarded, but few of them
gave him a boost. No; the gentleman
from White Pine will hardly be either a
kicker or a booster in the next Republi-
can campaign.
This is a notable conversion to the
paths of virtue and we sincerely hope
that it may stick. The gentleman is
never a back.slider when once he has
made up his mind to take the bit in his
mouth. 1t is especially gratifying to us
to learn that the ablest Republican poll
tician in the State is to devote q season
to sackcloth and ashes. But with the
hypocrisy and false promises and gen
eral rot.enness Of the g. o. p, it cannot
wondered that a gentleman Of his
discernment and probity would deter
to get under cover. Yes, "the
world do move"

IL cannot be said in truth that Ne.
vada is maintained as a State for the
purpose Of keeping millionaires in tie
United States Senate more than any
other State. The United states Senate
is . goal for millionaires. and that is ell
there is about it-sDd Nevada is not to
blame for that. We take it for granted,
even by the Chicago Herald, that a
mining stock millionaire is as good as a
pork millionaire, or q coal oil stock mil.
lionaire-Enterprise.
When the Eastern press talks about
the dismemberment Of Nevada, il dis
plays a lack Of common sense. Nevada
is one Of the sovercignties composing
the American Union and there is no
power in Congress, or out Of it, except
that which resides with our own people,
to blot it out as q State. Inasu UGH as
there is no feeling Of that kind here, it
is not at all likely that this will ever be
done. Nevada needs more taxable
property and more population, which
she can never acquire in fifty years ex'
cept by the annexation Of contiguous
territory. We are only a little ahead OF
the time on the Utah matter, but it will
come all the same. There is no possible
relief for us in any other direction.
But now a word Of Doodle Senators.
We quite agree with the Enterprise that
Nevada is neither better nor worse thar
a majority Of the Northern States. The
South does better and still sends her
best men to the Senate whether rich or
poor. This comes mainly from the fact
that the South being an agricultural
country has few special interests to
serve. She lacks the great manufactur.
ing m~onopolies, banks and railroads and
other corporations which run things in
the North. But the South is fast getting
all OF these things and soon none but
the boodlers will receive consideration
there either. The trail Of the serpent is
over the land.
And there is not one Doodle Senator at
Washington. out of the whole lot, with
sufficient ability to make more than a
fair average County Commissioner,
while some of them are but common
fools, OF the more owlish and stupid va.
riety. Still with the aid of a too chart
table press they are made to stand out
before the world as great men; and the
fools get to believe it themselves after
awhile and become disgustingly intoler-
ant. Clerks and retainers prepare man
uscript speeches for them about once in
a term and these are read before the
Senate pretty much as a ~schoolboy reads
his composition in the closing exercises.
Then the too charitable press will give
them another boost to greatness, and in
time their respective constituencies will
be deceived into regarding them as OF
the intellectual salt of the earth. We
know one Senator who has been shining
for eighteen years on a speech written
for him by others.
