Eureka weekly sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1887-1902, 1890-05-10

The Republican party has the Admin
istration and both Houses Of Congress.
To the dominant party the silver men
look for the ful6llment OF the promises
made in the National platform and oy
the Republican speakers during the last
Presidential campaign. Everybody with
three-clam bake brain power can foresee
the political consequences IN TINS stats
II nothing substantial is done Tor the
silver interest during the present session
of Congress. II will mean Republican
defeat and disaster in all the silver pro-
ducing States and Territories.
The above is from the Tuscarora
T~imes-Revisw. the ablest Of the Repub-
licsn press in Nevada. The quoted para.
graph is true reflection Of the public
pulse 90 10 seems to beat to-day. We
meet hundreds Of old.line Republicans
all over the State who swear by the
Eternal that they will vote the straight
Democratic ticket this Fall unless their
party shall pass a free coinage bill at the
present session Of Congress. They want
no Window nonsense nor bullion certih.
Gates representing silver as a commodity
like pig iron or cheese. Free and I'M
limited coinage is the cry in this State
among the voters Of all classes. We
never before saw the people OF Nevada
90 much aroused on any public theme as
they are to-day on the silver question.
The coqueting by our delegation in
Washington with the goldbugs is also
trying their patience sorely. They want
no more Of il nor will they accept plaus-
ible explanations this Fall. They want
results and will be satisfied with moth
ing else. II our servants have any re-
gard for the interests Of the people Of
Nevada they will unite with the Demo-
Gratis and pass 9 free coinage bill. There
is no other course open to q Republican
claiming to be . friend Of silver. If he
consorts with the goldbug majority of
his party he thereby proclaims himself
also an enemy Of our dominant industry.
There is no two ways about it. The
representative who places his party alle-
glance above the public welfare in this
crisis is too narrow and bringing . crea.
ture to be entitled either to the conf.
dence or the respect Of sensible men.
The people Of Nevada do not propose TO
be cheated any longer on the silver ques.
tion. They now realize, as they never
did before, that they have committed
grave mistakes in sending Republicans
10 either House at Washington merely
to reinforce the goldbug majority of the
Republican party against themselves and
thus prevent legislation. They are get
ting their eyes open and are not going to
commit the same crime again. In the
future they are going to stand by the
friends Of silver and vote to place both
Houses under control of the party that
shows the greatest friendship for free
coinage. There are not "sacks =
enough on the Pacific Coast to elect q
Republican Constable in Nevada this
Fall unless that party should change
front at once and give us a measure Of
this character. Neither the Window
nor the caucus swindle will do. II must
be clean cut free coinage with more Re-
publicans than Democrats voting for it,
This is the local political significance oil
the situation. The man who shall fail te
come squarely up to the scratch may
safely rely upon seeing his anne written
IS "MUD."
