New York bankers have lately been
interviewed on the subject Of the new
silver coinage law and its effects on trade
and commerce. Very many OF these
~fnanciers Of the financial center Of
America, says the Grass Valley Tele-
graph, are declaring that IL is yet too
early to predict the effects Of the silver
law. But just before that Act became
a law those financiers were ready enough
and quick enough with their predictions,
and they said that dire ruin and misery
would pervade the land and that pros
perity would forever keep her face away
from America and only smile on those
nations that had the single gold stand
ard for money. And now. when their
bad results, as predicted, do not take
place those eminent financiers are hest
Eating as TO further predictions. 1t lie
curious to see how wise men get stupid
all at once. This is perhaps because the
wise men were not SO really wise. And
with other things besides the silver law,
il has often been shown that statesmen
and experts can see just about az far
ahead, as to the effects OF q measure, as
can ommon people. Theories Of the
best construction are often overthrow
by the simplest kind of facts.

In connection with the race the Chico
Enterprise relates the following in
cident:
One Of the " s~ure-thing " boys was
neatly taken in at his own game last
Saturday, and it served him just right.
An old man in the employ of ID. NJ.
Reavis purchased a couple OF pool
tickets on Vic. A gambler standing
near saw the transaction, and noticed
that the old man could not read. He
had two tickets OIL Frank NJ, but az
Vic had just won two heats, and every
prospect pointed to her winning the
third, he tried to do the old man and
was beaten himself. He made an ex-
cuse to see his tickets, rapidly substi-
tuted them for his own, and gave the
old man the two on Frank M. The
gamblers rage and disappointment
can only be pictured when Frank M.
trotted in under wire, winner.

A NEEDED

The Carson Tribune says there is
nothing that would tend more to secure
honest legislation than the election Of
United States Senators by direct vote of
the people, for 1t Is q generally conceded
fact that in every State Legislature dis
graceful bargain and sale has prevailed.
Men entirely incompetent to enact salu-
tary laws have been elected to the SEN
ate and Assembly Of our State for the
one purpose. to vote for q certain man
for United States Senator, and scenes
have taken place at the capital Of Ne
vada that must forever remain . blot on
her name. The votes of so-called hon
orable men have been bartersd for as
might be ct . public auction; men have
been elected under q promise to support
one individual and shamefully perjured
themselves by taking and voting for the
opposing party, and these being patent
facts mt one will care TO deny that the
election Of Senators by the people. as is
the case with Congressman, Is . reform
much to be desired.
II would seem that an aspirsnt for
Senatorial honors would prefer to sub.
init his ~pretensions to the popular vote
instead of creeping into Office by the
vote Of . few individuals selsated for
that purpose. for he would then have the
right TO claim the title Of the peoples
man. and popularity instead of coin
would place him in his seat. which he
could. under such circumstances, fill
with honor to himself and his constitu-
snts. By this means able men could be
secured for the upper House Of Congress
and sent thereto by the popular voice. or
in other words Q candidate for Senate.
rial honors need not be q millionaire nor
supported by that class.

CALIFORNIA PATRIOTIsM.

asm az we do. When the average Ter.
ritory is admitted il bubbles over with
Joy until its first slate Of State officials
is filed, and then il has something else
to think OF.
1Of course the Importance Of Admis-
sion Day to the Californian mind is easily
explained. There was q combination Of
circumstances which made the addition
Of Dur star TO the national flag . dra-
matte event. The sleepy Mexican prov
ince was suddenly turned into a battle.
ground. For a moment it vas an indie
pendent republic. and then before it
fairly had time 10 shake the cresses out
of its bear flag ID dropped into the arms
OF the United States. Before the ex.
element over these events had sub
sided came the gold discovery and the
impact Of the adventurers Of the world.
On top of that arose the slavery quarrel,
and Congress was racked With the dis.
pute whether California should come in
as a free State or stay out until the slave.
owners could get a better foothold.
Meanwhile things in this remote Terri
tory were drifting into anarchy. When
the news Of Statehood came il came as a
message Of deliverance. No wonder the
day has been remembered ever since,
especially when we have two such bodies
as the Pioneers and the Native Sons to
keep as In mind OF ID.

TICKET.

The ticket nominated at Virginia City
seems 10 have been arranged on new
principles, as its greatest strength Is at
the tail end. The head is the creation
of Mr.. Yerington. who imported il from
Bodie, California, for the purpose OF
making il 10 name the Governor OF Ne
vada, while in reality it would be the
puppet Of the General Superintendent OF
the Virginia & Truckee and the Colorado
& Carson railroads. Nevadsus never
heard Of Mr.. CoIcord until Mr.. Yer
ington, through bis Carson m~outhpiece,
a month or two ago introduced him ss .
candidate for Governor Of the State.
For Congressman Mr.. Barsine has
been renominated. He purposes stand
ing on his record, but that is so weak
that il will not sustain him, light as he
has proved himself to be. A strong man
in his place would have made every
ounce OF silver produced in Nevada
worth twelve cents more than il is to-
day or the Maine despot would not &C.
cupy the Speakers chair.
The Judicial ticket, with the excep.
tion Of Bigelow for Supreme Judge and
Rising for District Judge, is below me-
diocrity, and some Of the arguments
that can be advanced in favor Of Bige-
lows election will defeat Rising. Oh
the three other nominees one-Talbot-
has no record and is scarcely known out
side Of the suburbs OF Elko. and the
| other two-Wells and Cheney-hsve
records but would be much better of
without them. but II they care TO have
them known the Silver State will assist,
without charge, in giving them c%irculs-
tion.
As the duties OF the other State off,
| GERS are in nearly every instance per-
| formed by deputies ID is OF little CON
sequence to the people who the princi'
pals are, provided they are not under
obligations, IL elected, to appoint incom-
petent persons. There are good and ca
pable men on the ticket, but II seems Il
be constructed on the kangaroo princi
pie, and they are on the tall end.

claim himself an independent candidate

greater interest TO the people Of Nevadi

Representative Kennedy Of Ohio.
radical Republican, attacked Senator
Quay in . speech in the House Of Repre-
sentasives, aHd branded him as . Grim
insl, and said the Judas Of two thou
sand years 2 o who took thirty pieces
Of silver and hanged himself, left an Z
ample well worthy Of ouay's imitation.
The speech has caused much indigna-
tion among Republican Senators. Sew
ersl consultations were held, but no plan
for action was agreed upon. A promi'
nent Senator said that IL after q time
the House took no action the Senate
should pass 9 resolution calling the at
tention OF the House to the uDpsrlis-
mentsry proceeding and then leave Il to
deal with the question as it saw ht. But
this action would depend upon the man
ner in which the knowledge Of the de.
livery Of the speech reached the Senate.
Kennedy's remarks do not appear in the
Congressional Record, the reporter not
ing that they "are withheld for revis'
ion." Unless they come before the Sen.
ate in the Record or some other suthori'
tative way. it may be that nothing will
be done. Quay knew nothing Of the de-
livery of the speech until next morning,
and after his arrival at the Senate he
conferred with several Of his colleagues,
spending considerable time with lDgslls.
He said to a reporter that he had not de
termined upon what course to pursue.
He had under consideration the making
of a statement under the rule governing
questions Of personal privileges.
