The CHILLED HreR Cheek of a Rene Man
Everybody in the vicinity of Love
locks knows Peter West, who resided
there for some years. He was q live
man, who always kept his name before
the public, and the following from the
Record Union shows that he is not dead
yet:
"Therelis no doubt that Peter West,
ESQ.,, of Reno, Nevads, is in earnest
about securing the appointment OF United
States District Judge for the District Of
Nevada. This position was recently
made vacant by the death Of Judge Geo.
NJ. Sabin. A Washington dispatch gives
publicity TO the novel method adopted
by Mr.. West to emphasize his desire for
the position, aud to sequaint the Senate
With himself. Each member of the Sen
ate has received a souvenir, in the form
of cabinet photograph of man dressed
in q suit OF store clothes, with . nicely
polished silk upon bis head and an UNI
brella under his arm, gazing at = knot
hole in the ''dim aud distant far away"
On the back Of this photograph lie the
following inscription:
"Peter West, Attorney-st-law, Reno,
Nevada. Graduated from Iowa State
University. Candidate for United States
District Judge, to fll vacancy in Nevada.
Age 40, height feet 10 inches, weight
1875 pounds. May 20, 1890.
"These paragraphs are accompanied by
a letter from Mr.. West, in which be
invites the Senators 20 whom they have
been addressed TO cooperate in securing
him an appointment as United States
Judge, ard be incloses the photograph in
order that they may see what sort of a
man they are assisting. This 10 novel
way OF seeking office, but it is not prov
ing any more effective than the orthodox
plan. 1t is, however, economical, saving
the expense OF trip to the national cap
ital. aud Of, perhaps, a wearisome stay
there at great cost. Ii will also, doubt.
less, strike the Senators most favorably,
because it will save them from the per-
sistent button holing and entreaty which
Office seekers in propria persona are won't
to infict. 1t lie, in fact, not to be
doubted that wearied Cabinet officers
and members OF both Houses of Congress
would hail with Joy the adoption of this
novel innovation Of the gentleman from
Nevada.

The senator Tanks the Passage OF any
Biil at This session Doubtful.
Tue following is published in the San
Francisco Chronicle:
IL am not very hopeful that any good
will come out OF the meeting OF the con
ference committee ON the Silver bill, 2"
said Senator Stewart to an associated
press reporter, 'for / believe that the
whole plan OF the opposition to silver
coinage is to play waiting game and
kill time. | do not know but 1t is the
best, after all, TO have the question set
tied by the people at the polls in the

"But, Senator, it is said by leading
Republicans of the House that they will
favor a compromise bill providing for the
coinage Of four and half million dollars

legal tender and redeemable in coin. the

Tue Paris News says: "We do not

Jones is in line with the preaching
of Christ. His were sermons of love,

heard of the saying, ''Tempora

But here is how the Rev. Sam JUST,
fes himself:
I just adapt my preaching to the
crowd 1 am preaching to. How can
T be decent in speech when 1 speak
to such crowd? Laughter. When
I speak to these old whisky soaks,
card-players and gamblers, how can
I be decent? And to you, quiet old
sisters, too, you haven't the sense of
COW. Sisters, when 1 say anything
that don't suit you throw it to one

and when she gets through you find
the briars and brambles she has
thrown aside and you just throw
aside the briars if they don't suit
you.

The question either of independ-
ence or annexation to the United
States will not down in Canada,
Judging from the following Mon
treal dispatch
Events are shaping themselves
gradually but slowly for some radi-
cal change in Canada's status. Ever
since the loyalty address to the
Queen was passed by the Commons
at Ottawa and the young Liberals
of Toronto and Montreal passed
counter resolutions in favor of Cana
dian independence, arrangements
have been quietly proceeding in this
city for the establishment of an or
ganization which will work system
atically and increasingly in favor of
'the emancipation of the country"
The project is as yet in its infancy,
bat the promoters, though some
what reticent, admit that iG will soon
be fully launched. They say that
the end in view is a patriotic one,
and that only pacific and constitu-
tional methods will be employed. A
Canadian independence league, with
all through the land
and beyond its borders, will be
formed.
