from Gothenburg, Sweden, also from Copen-

New York and Boston. The passage, in the
summer time, occupies some twelve or thir-

Speaker Reed returned from Pittsburg to-

THROUGHOUT the State there APP
pears to now be a better feeling for
the Republican ticket. Some weeks
ago there were number of kick
ers," whom it was feared would not
not fall in line before election. In
the Eastern part of Nevada as well
as in the West, whatever differences
there might have been in the party
have been smoothed over and there
now seems to .be united pull being
made for the ticket. Two years ago
there was handsome Republican
majority in the State, and we see
no reason why the majority should
not be as great this year, if not
greater. Bartine will, we believe,
run better than he did two years
ago. He has made a good record
and will be returned to show that
the people endorse his actions.

IT may be all right for stump
speakers to tell you that the Repub-
lican party never did anything for
silver, and all that was ever done
was due TO Democrats of other
States; but when you put on your
thinking cep and recollect that new
er since the establishment of the
Carson mint did the institution quit
coming bullion until the Democrat
ic administration of Cleveland, and
that it did not resume operations
until Cleveland was retired from the
Presidency and Republican was
placed at the head of affairs at
Washington, you will probably be-
gin to see that something is wrong.
So far, under the rule of Republi-
cans, silver has reached higher
point than it has seen for many
years, and the agitation of the ques-
ton, and the work done by Repub-
licans is what has done it. These
are facts, whatever may be said to
the contrary. 1t is true that the
present bill is not free coinage
measure. We do not think it is
better than free coinage, nor do we
think it will lead up to free coinage
as Mr.. Cassidy stated Senator Stew
nrt had remarked, but believe that
it has done some good to the silver
producing countries already, and
that in time and with few changes,
the measure will become just what
is wanted in this country, and all
over the country for that matter.

From all appearances the State
University at Reno is drifting into
a political proposition to be used
to create positions for more office
seekers. If there is anything in
the State that should be kept out of
politics it is our educational insti-
tutions. As it is, there are two
nominees now on both the Repub-
lican and Democratic tickets for
Regents of the State University.
We doubt not that all the nominees
are excellent men, well fitted to fill
the positions to which they ask the
people to elect them, but why not
select Democrat and Republican
as Regents this year. What ought
to have been done was for each
party to make but one selection for
Regent at the conventions, and
then have each party endorse the
nominations. w. e. f. Deal, of
Storey county is one of the Demo-
cratic nominees for Regent, and we
think there is not man in the
whole State any better qualified for
the position, and we have no hesi-
tation in saying that we think he
should be elected. There is nothing
to say against Mr.. George, Mr..
Deals opponent, but we think more
interest would be taken in the Uni
versity by the people if there is not
a bit of politics about it.

BoYcoTTING is a practice that we
do not as rule approve of; but Re-
publicans would be justifable in
using it upon those merchants who
have attempted to raise prices on
articles that are either not affected
at all by the tariff law or upon
which the duties are lower than I'M
der the old law, on the false plea
that the increased duties under the
new law make it necessary. There
are few, very few articles upon
which the duties have been raised
sufficiently to justify an appreciable
