A Baton Rouge. La, dispatch says:
The Anti.Lottery League has issued an
address r%eciting at length the history
Of the lottery in Louisiana and its cur
rupt purchase of legislation. The ad-
dress says: 1.-THE aggregate of the
schemes monthly and s~emi-annual
drawings is the fabulous sum of S28,-
000, 600 per annum, and the aggregate OF
their daily drawings are 80 arranged that
they can sell ssventy-fve per cent OF
their tickets and pay ten per cent for
selling them and lose all the prizes pro-
vided for in the schemes; pay 81, 0O0,.
900 for expenses and still make 50, OOO,-
600 profit per annum." This, the ad-
dress says, shows the scheme to be fraud
ulent and unfair. The address recon-
mends to Congress the immediate adop.
ton OF an amendment to the Federal
Constitution prohibiting any State from
chartering or licensing any lottery or
gift prize. and abolishing those already
established.

A London scientist comes to the front
with a bit Of information that ia very
interesting just now. He says that
housefiies are killed by q certain fungus
whose spores permeate the air. As
soon as the growth settles upon a fly it
sends out roots which penetrate the in
scots body, gradually sapping il Of life
and strength. The human race is directly
interested in the fungus described. Can
not science 60 still further now and tell
US how to cultivate this fly disease. and
to generate . fly epidemic that shall ex-
terminate the whole pestiferous race. 1t
has already been proved that the dragon
Fly is the natural enemy Of the mos
quito, and n~aturalists are experimenting
on means of multiplying the dragon ont
pat for each year. Success to s~cienoel
This world will be q great deal better
place, in every way, when there shall be
no more flies and mosquitoes.

The new Congregational Church at
Mooreland. Iowa, was dedicated on the
10th ult. with impressive ceremonies, but
when the minister pronounced the bene-
diction many people who had an anxious
desire to rise kept their seats for fifteen
minutes or SO. and when they did get up
many small donations were made in the
seats, such as fragments Of silk dresses,
swallow-tail coats, and other necessities
in the way Of dress. The church had
just been vanished and the flock were
evidently stuck on the surroundings.

MILLIONS n

The Blaine proposition that he, or the
President and he, shall be allowed, after
q year or two years, and at their sweet
discretion, to lower, raise, abrogate or
reimpose the duty on sugar, is worthy
Of the immortal Sellers. There's
millions in it,"
But do the Blaine people who are cry
ing up this proposition imagine the peo-
pie are blind Congress will reassemble
next December; a new Congress will as.
semble in 1891. Congress is almost al
ways in session. On what pretext can
any one ask that the legislative branch,
almost continuously in session in these
days. shall surrender to Mr.. Blaine, or
TO President Harrison and Mr.. Blaine,
the power to lay and remit duties, which
are taxes, at their.ow sweet will?
By all means let us have reciprocity
treaties. But let these be negotiated by
the President and ratified by the Senate
and legalized by the House, as the Con-
stitution provides and as has Away been
done.
This new Blaine way, by which the
two Houses Of Congress are to abdicate
and put their highest and most delicate
powers into the hands of the President,
opens the door to one Of the biggest
scandals in history. There's millions

The Legislature Of the State Of Ne
vada now meets every two years, and
there are sixty enthusiastically Sena-
tors and forty As~semblymen. The pay
of this body for q session Of sixty days
at IS per day is $500. By reducing
the number Of representatives to forty
and holding q thirty.day session every
two years there would be Q saving oil
nearly 10000. leaving the pay as al
present, IS. The amount Of business to
transact can be done in thirty days and
forty members can do il as well, il not
better, than sixty, and 10000 a year
would be saved the State. The next
thing to do would be to abolish the Su-
preme Court Of the State. We have
three Supreme Judges who are paid a
salary Of $1,000 a year. The State can
do without a Supreme Court and thereby
save SIS, 900 q year on this item. Inc
next saving would come in the reduction
of salaries Of State officers and the lop-
ping off of the many deputies. The
Governors salary would be ample at
$500 a month, or So, 900 q year; the Sec
rotary Of State, who now gets $500 per
year, could very well afford to do all
| the work there is in the office for $1,000
a year and have no deputy; the State
Controller, who now gets 5000 q year,
could do his work for 81, 400 q year; so
| could the State Treasurer. We need no
| Attorney General, for the State Board OF
| Examiners could hire all the counsel
necessary for 81, 200 . year. Otherwise
| the officials are paid about right, and the
| changes here mentioned would save just
SII, 200 q year. These three items would
save in one year S39, 200, or nearly
enough to pay for a Constitutional Con-.
~vention according TO some estimates OF
what such q move would cost. With
the saving that a State poor farm would
be to the State--say ! 5,0O0-we could
have a reduction Of expenses amounting
to $54, 200. This is a large saving, and
we believe il should be made. as the
cost Of running the State now Is alto
pether too much for $4,000 people. In
many counties the consolidation Of off
ces would also reduce the taxes Of tbs
people to a considerable extent. The
way to accomplish all these things in
bunch is TO call o Constitutional Con
v%ention. Lyon County Times.

EDISON ON KEnLER's DEATH.

Thomas A. Edison has the following
10 say on the death Of Wm. kemler;
"The fault in the mal-execution OF
Kemler lies wholly with the doctors.
Theoretically they are right no doubt.
The nerve center Of the human system
lies in the base Of the skull. but practi.
cally they are all at sea. Here we have
had something like thirty perfect exam
ples Of instant death by electricity in
accidents that have happened in and
around New York. How was electricity
applied in these casesi Never in the
head.
"Of what use has been the death Of
these thirty men, In every case the
mortal charge entered through the hand.
In no case was the strength Of the cur
rent nearly half what was to have been
passed through Kemler's skull. The
reason why contact by the hand is so
much more fatal than through the head
10 that electricity travels through the
water in the body. The hair Of the head
is Q non.conductor. You see that when
you comb your hair with q rubber comb.
The bones are also non-conductors, and
In electrical executions like shat oil
Kemler the bones Of the skull have to
be penetrated. Had he received the
whole 300 volts into his body it would
have burned him up.

Ex-Secretary Bayard nnounce that
he will attend the coming Democratic
State Convention Of Delaware as a dele
gate. This is as it should be. There is
no duty more incumbent upon a private
gentleman than that he should take an

The Reno Gazette in . mild sort Of
way has on several occasions recently
criticised Senator Jones adversely.
Such q thing as a Republican paper lind
ing fault with a Republican ofhce-holder
has never occurred before in this State.
Il has been the usual course Of the Re
publican press to beslobber Republican
o~fice-holders and swallow them boots
and all aver though the said o~fice-hold-
ers were not worth sheepherders wages
to the State or the people. 1t is an en-
couraging symptom TO find even one
journal protesting the Republican faith
with sufficient independence TO say that
its soul is its own-if Republican papers
have souls, which is very doubtful, since
a conscience in that case would also be a
necessary condition. But we are not
certain that the Gazette's assumption OF
independence had anything to do with
it's criticism Of our senior Senator. II is
more likely to be attributable to it's fond
ness for the RED. headed Rooster "
from beyond the Sierra rather than to a
spasm Of manly frankness and indie
pendence. The Gazette seems to be de-
voted very largely to the personal for.
tunes Of F. G.. Newlands. The Gazette
Is the medium through which that gen.
tleman has been instructing q benighted
world on 9 variety Of subjects during
the last FIVE or six months. Logically,
therefore, it is to be inferred that in it's
effort to pull Jones down from the SEN
ate the Gazette INDUCED the hope that
by some lucky turn Of political fortune
its patron saint might be showed into
the hole made vacant. But it is q ques-
| tion Of grave doubt in many minds
| whether Newlands can fill Jones hole.
| We shall not speculate On that branch
Of the subject. 1t is quite apparent,
however, that Newlands is either q can.
didate for Senator against Jones or the
Gazette is trying very hard to get him
into the race by pointing out the weak
spots In Jones' armor. We care nothing
as to which may win. 1t is q great
misfortune for Nevada to send any Re-
publican to either House Of Congress.
We will never have free coinage while
the Republican party controls the legis'
lation OF the country.

SIC HIM, BOSE.

The Virginia Chronicle asks: What
the dickens is the Reno Gazette driving
at. anyhow 1t is scoring Senator Jones
like a p~ickpocket. and in the same
breath ~extolling to the skies Citizen
Frank G. Newlands, who, 10 declares.
isn't a candidate for anything. With
highlands out of the field Jones is the
only Republican Senatorial candidate
and the Gazette cannot, without eating
dirt enough to choke an elephant, sup
port such q lukewarm friend to Nevada
as 1t claims our senior Senator to be. 1t
looks as though our Reno friend was
preparing to kick over the Republican
traces. Well, neighbor, if you mean
the true business come right along and
you shall have . snug and sunny corner
in the Democratic fold. If you are
using somebody as an augur to tap Mr.
Jones' barrel bore deep and give US all 3
chance at the bunghole. You have our
sympathy, anyhow, whether as a Demo
cratic ally or q Republican kicker. Our
enjoyment OF the fun couldn't be- sur
passed except by welcoming you into
the Democratic camp, where there are
no kickers and nothing at present to
kick at. But hurry along If you're com.
ing. There's plenty of room now. but
there's no telling how soon the house
will be full and the gates closed. The
only way to beat Jones is with . Demo.
orat. II you want to beat him bad
enough for that come right over and help
us do it. If you don't, keep up your
bluff and scare him to death II you can't
kill him.
