Chooan Gnod MEN.

The Elko Independent says: The
question of the election OF a United
States Senator should cut no figure in
the coming campaign in Elko county.
We do not think 1t for the best inter-
ests Of the State to elect men to the
Legislature who will consider their
work accomplished and their salaries
earned when q successor to Senator
Jones has been chosen. There Is
something else to be done in the inter-
est Of the people. Good laws should
be enacted and bad ones repealed,
which should be OF more interest to
the people than returning Jones to the
Senate. II John p. Jones wants to 20
back to the Senate. let him go; and
let our Senators and Assemblymen
take some interest in local questions
which more nearly oncer the welfare
Of our people. The coming Legisla-
ture will have to deal with question OF
more importance to the people OF Ne.
vada than the election OF a United
States Senator, and the very best men
in both parties should be chosen on
4th Of November.

can it be that these servants think

do they imagine they own the posi-

The San Francisco Report comment
ing on the decline in the population O
Nevada, says:
1.-THE census was taken at a rather
unfortunate time for the State OF Ne
vada-at the worst possible time. Ii
gives Nevada a smaller population
than ii has ever had since the dis
covery Of its rich mineral deposits,
and smaller than il will ever have.
lie census marshals caught out sister
State between wind and water-im-
metiately after a serious depression in
III mining industry and an except
ally hard agricultural season, and
~ nediatelY before and inevitable re-
val OF mining and the commence
A. ent OF a steady and great expansion
OF the agricultural interest,""
1.-The advance in silver will result in
the immediate opening Of hundreds OF
mines, which can now be operated at
a reasonable profit, and will conse-
quently give employment to a large
number OF men, who will soon bring
Their families around them. The ex-
tension OF irrigation on a very large
scale has been planned and, in fact,
is going on, and that will establish a
permanent and thrifty population over
a large era of the State, of the richness
OF much Of the soil under irrigation
there can be no doubt whatever"
The census of the year 1900 will
make a very different showing for the
State across the mountains. So let it
bear with philosophy the filings its
bad luck in the census may bring upon
it, and settle down TO work. II has
its wild oats and has had its sea-

Does Not Altogether Inspire Conn.
dence.

While the new law relative to silver
has advanced the price OF silver bull
ion considerably and demonstrated
beyond a doubt that free coinage is
what is wanted, the law does not al
together inspire confidence in men OF
means who are anxious to invest in
mine property. The f~uctuation OF the
price of bullion shows that it is still a
commodity that can be dealt in the
same rs hay, potatoes or pig iron.
What should be done with silver is to
make il q money metal the same as
gold. Capital could then be invested
in silver mines with the assurance
that at no time could a gang of manip-
ulators lower the price. A free coin
age bill is what will be required to
effect this change, and that is what
Congress should keep working fol
until it is accomplished.-Lyo County

The La Grippe.

The Carson Appeal says this dread
disorder that consigned SO many to
untimely graves last Winter seems to
be r~easserting itself in Carson City
and the State generally. Almost
every second person one meets COM
plains Of stomach pains, sore threats
and cough. The experience OF last

light disease and on its first appear
ance medical aid should be secured.
1t Is an insidious disorder and the
precursor Of other and more malignant

The alarm of fire ON Mob Hill last
Tuesday morning was caused by the
cotton lining in Miss McKenzie's
kitchen taking fire from a hot stove.
But slight damage was done. The
alarm in the evening was caused by
the bursting Of a coal oil lamp in the
Presbyterian parsonage. The damage
by this fire amounted to about $3.50
fully insured. The fire department
was promptly on hand at both fires,
which accounts for the small amount
of damage done,
