Stewart Of Nevada has bolted from
the Republican party on the Force bill.
He kicked over the party traces and
outside Of the caucus gag and made .
speech against the infamous measure.
His argument was eomnonplsce .
based on the wrong ground, but his &C.
poussl Of the right side Of the question,
from whatever point Of view, Is secepta-
bic and will be appreciated by patriotic
men al over the country. II is one de-
cent public act to be pot down to Stew
arts credit and we honor him TO this ex-
tent. He seeued to predicate his oppo-
sition 10 the bill on the assumption that
il would be either . dead letter or re.
quire the United States army to enforce
ID. These alternatives might be sufh-
Gent to raise a reasonable apprehension,
but the real curse Of the bill lie lite long
stride 10 the direction Of empire. There
are some indications that Teller and
other Western Senators will join the re-
volt inargurated by Stewart. And well
they may. The Force bill is aimed
mainly at local self government in the
south. The South is always the friend
of the West in legislation. The sbless
champions, BY long odds, Of silver, are
the representatives from the Southern
States. How could Western Republi'
cans stand up and punish the South and
then expect the votes Of Southern mer
for ~silverl The South will furnish two
thirds Of all the votes that are given fol-
| free coinage in both Houses. tishightim'
that partisan rancor and radical section
alism were pushed aside in a patriotic en-
| deavor to do something TO promote th'
general welfare Of the whole country
It now looks as though the Republican,
in the Senate would fall to pieces on th'
Force bill and abandon its further consid
| Grafton after the holidays. The Democrat
had given notice that they would hitcl
a free coinage bill onto it as an amend
| ment and this also made an embarrassing
situation in the Republican ranks. Tn
Western Senators have doubtless deter
mined to bolt their caucus early rathe
than to stand pledged to vote agains
free coinage. 1t was the tactics Of tn
Democrats that made discord in tho Re
publican camp and at the same tim
made converts for correct principles o
| Government.

There is q point about the inAugura-
tion Of our new State administration
which we believe deserves some ssten-
tion and discussion. Formerly IL has
been the Custom to set everything 10
motion, the Legislature included, on the
6rst Monday in January. IL was the
rule to iDsugurAte the Governor in the
presence Of the two Houses Of the Legis-
lAture in joint convention, before whom
the Governor-elect took the oath Of office,
administered by one Of the Supreme
Judges, usually the Chief Justice, and
delivered his inaugural address. The
legal terms Of all State officers would
seem to begin, under the constitution,
on the first Monday in January. By 8
recent amendment to the constitution
the Legislature does not meet until the
third Monday, which falls this term on
the 10Th Of January. Will Governor
elect Colcord formally take Office on the
first day Of January or await the meet
ing Of the Legislature or the 10Th This
is q point which some Of the heads o
departments at Carson will be called
upon to decide within the next week
i. is our own opinion that the new Gov
ernor may legally go in on either date
but there will be more pomp and eireum
stance In having the business eonsum-
mated in the presence Of the Legisla-

THE COLOR LINE In RESTAU
N

The strongest opinion in favor Of the
civil rights of colored citizens yet given
~ an American court has just been rem
iered by the Supreme Court Of Michi-
gan. Two negroes went into a Detroit
restaurant, sat down at one of the
tables and ordered a meal. The owner
told them that he would not serve them
here. but invited them to the other side
Of the room, where the tables were not
covered and were otherwise less desira-
Die. When they demurred he offered tc
owe and furnish the tables just as they
we're on the first side and serve the
guests in the same manner as they would
be served on that side. This they re-
fused and withdrew. They then brought
a suit for damages under the Civil Rights
law of Michigan. The trial Judge
charged the jury that, while the defend
ant could not lawfully make any unjust
discrimination, he had a right to adopt
reasonable rules for the conduct of his
business. He might reserve certain
tables for women and others for men,
certain ones for white and others for
colored persons, and that the last named
would have nc legal ground Of complaint
so long as equally good service was given
them. In other words, separation was
rot in itself unlawful discrimination.
The Supreme Court reverses this ruling.
1t says:
The fault Of this construction is that
4 permits q discrimination on account Of
color alone. which cannot be made un-
der the law with any justice. In Mich.
gan there must be and is an absolute
unconditional equality of white and
colored men before the law. The white
man can have no rights or privileges un-
der the law that are denied to the black
lar
Socially people may do as they please
within the law, and whites may associ-
ate together, as may blacks, and exclude
whom they please from their dwellings
and private grounds. But there can be
no separation in public places between
people on account of their color alone
which the law will sanction.
Cases in which it has been held that
separate cars, schools, ETC., may be pro-
vided for colored persons were cited to
the Court. In reply Judge Morse quoted
the Civil Rights statute of Michigan,
and said: "Under it no line can be
drawn in the streets, public parks or
public buildings, on one side Of which
the black man must stop and stay. while
the white man may enjoy the other side
or both sides at his will and pleasure;
nor can such q line Of separation be
drawn in any Of the public places men,
toned in the Act"

Silver is again going TO the dogs under
the law which Stewart said was better
than free coinage. Yes, better for the
gamblers and spectators Of Wall street,
who formed 9 speculative silver pool,
which procured the passage Of the in
famous Window fraud. The Eastern
papers charge that twelve Senators and
fifteen members of the House, which in
cluded . strong representation from the
Pacific Coast and mining States, were
made partners in this pool and its profits
without putting up q cent. The pool Is
making millions out of the fluctuations
which it causes in the silver market
from day to day. Can il be that the
people Of any of the mining States are
honoring men with exalted positions
who are fstening on their misfortunes
and miseries! Will the people kindly
overhaul their log.books and then an.
swer this not impertinent query.

NO POwER To g
The Decision of the supreme Court
ON the Counting of the
on d constitutional Convcn.

m the of the Returns
on n Constitutional ave
tton.
The following opinion was fled
Wednesday, the 18th inst, in the matter
Of a canvass Of the election returns
touching the subject Of . Constitutional
Convention:
The power Of the Supreme Judges as
canvassers is defined by the constitution
and statute. The only authority given
is to "opeu and canvass the election re-
turns for Member Of Congress, Gov
ernor and other State officers"
This authority cannot be extended by
implication so as to embrace the cleo
tion returns for other officers or ques-
tions. The only implication that can
arise is that the Judges have implied or
Incidental power to perform all acts ap-
propriate or necessary to the execution
Of the power expressed; that is to say,
to do whatever may be necessary t.
make a complete canvass OF the returns
for Member of Congress, Governor and
other State officers. Any canvass by
the Judges in the matter under consld-
Grafton would be an excess of their au-
thority, and Of no more binding obliga-
ton upon any one than similar action BY
private citizens.
The facts connected with the present
returns now on file in the Office Of the
Secretary Of State require that no actor
should be taken by the Judges as can
vassers, unless they have lawful author
ity to act, because some OF these returns
| upon their face are defective, and otherl
are not authenticated. so far as they re-
late to the abstract Of the vote for OF
against a Constitutional Convention, anC
no authority is invested in the Judges tC
require correction or amendment.

TT mAY he LEGALLY HELD.

The Supreme Court declined to can
vass the vote Of the people on the ques-
ton Of holding . Constitutional Conven-
zion. The Court holds that there was
no law making 10 lie duty to do 90. This
may be admitted for the sake OF the ar
gument, but the convention may Be
legally held nevertheless. IL is con-
coded on ell sides that a clear majority
Of all the voters favored the calling Of .
convention. This result was reached
after recording against the proposition
the votes Of sll those who did not vote
either way, which vas . great sdvan-
tsge in itself. and . very serious obsta-
Gle to have been overcome by the affirm
alive friends Of the question. But ID
was in accordance with the mode pointed
out in the constitution, and the sdvo-
Gates Of reform having won in spite Of IL,
must insist that their will be respected
and obeyed by the Legislature. Ii
would be Q pslpable outrage on the
theory Of popular government and the
right of the majority TO rule TO ignore
the expressed will Of the people Is ID
now being urged by the weak and time
serving tools Of monopoly in this State.
The constitution seems 10 leave it TO
the Legislature to determine the whole
question relating to the holding Of q
convention. II it appear to the s~stisfac-
tion Of the Legislature that 9 majority
OF the people have declared for 3 conven'
tion, the Legislature must provide for
it's meeting within six months. There
is the a~scertainment of but . single fact
involved In the whole question. Did q
majority Of all the voters decide in ia
vor of o convention? That fact beiIG
determined all the rest is mandatory.
The constitution being silent on the
manner OF ascertainment IL is as compe-
tent AFTER as BEFORE the election fol-
the Legislature to make provision fol
getting the desired information. It il
praanfnen knat hna =rekurna@ ara M
possession of the Supreme Judges. A
simple joint resolution will bring thos'
returns before the Legislature and that
body in joint convention or otherwise
can proceed to canvass the vote and de-
clare the result. II any county hsi
failed to make returns either House o.
the Legislature, il it choose, may sent
it's Sergeant-at-Arms after them.
The Executive, Legislative and Judi
cial departments of government unde
our admirable system are each suprem'
within their respective functions. Tn
legislative branch stands more directl,
for the sovereign majesty Of the people
A Legislature therefore implies the EN-
bodiment Of . great deal Of dignity AM
power. Il can do anything which tn
Constitution Goes not say it shall not do
The coming Legislature will get at thos
returns and provide for the holding Of
Constitutional Convention IL il be no
composed Of q majority who are th
willing slaves Of the Central Paci6
Railroad Company and a few politica
bosses.

The belief is gaining ground that the
Eastern Republican Senators are at
tempting to pay off the Western farm
ers for voting as they did at the recent
election by keeping the Force bill before
the Senate for the purpose of rendering
il impossible to pass any measure look
ing toward the free coinage Of silver.
In this way they will punish the farmer
by keeping the money market in its
present stringency.

The Republican Senators are still eau
cusing and temporizing with the silver
question. A majority of them are
against free coinage, but are willing to
favor q measure that will take up the
surplus silver in the market, provided
something be done for the national
banks in the same bill. All Of this is
but cheating and deceiving the people.
There is no permanent cure for present
financial ills except absolute and uncon-
ditional free and Unlimited coinage. The
man who will compromise on anything
less is an enemy of the general welfare
and of the people. The people have
been tricked and betrayed often enough
on this subject.

cent whether their representatives In
Washington do anything for silver or
not. By their votes last Fall the people
Of this State Endorsed the Window fraud

The Republicans don't know whether
to go ahead with their Force bill or let it
die quietly. They remind us Of the
Irishman who had swallowed an egg
without breaking the she'll. He was in
a terrible state of mind, because il he
jumped round he might break the egg
and the shell would cut his stomach,
and if he lay still the egg would hatch
and he would have a Shanghai rooster
clawing his insides.

strange sources of Profit.

Among the Governments strange
sources Of profit is that resulting from
The destruction of paper money. Only
the other day two trains met in a Ken
lucky tunnel and for thirty hours the
wreck burned, In the express car was
an iron safe containing 5 $1,000 in cash
and q lot Of jewelry. 1t was all paper
money and was almost reduced to ashes,
for 500 was all the Redemption Divis-
on Of the Treasury was able to get out
Of it in a condition to redeem. On the
early issues Of fractional currency it is
estimated the Government cleared $l5,-
900, 600, and the destruction of larger
denominations is estimated at something
less than l per cent. A good deal Of the
money has been placed where it will
never be recovered. Only a short time
ago, on the body Of a murdered man dis
covered neal an Ohio town, was found q
pocketbook filed with greenbacks that
had to be sent to the Treasury for re-
demption, and it is estimated that many
q snug sun lies moulding in the grave.
