rHE OLD AVID rae NEW.

The present Congress dies by hmita-
lion Of law March 4 next. The terms OF
the Congressman elected on the 4th in.
slant begin on the same day, but the
new Congress, under the law, will not
assemble for organization and business
until the first Monday in December,
1891 little over one year from this
date. II the President should call an
extra session at any time after the 4th OF
March the newly elected Congress viii
have to assemble in Washington. We
make this explanation for the reason
that a number of people In this section.
not familiar with the law, have an idea
that the new Congress will meet March
4. Uuder the circumstances il is impos-
sible for the new Democratic House to
give us . free coinage bill for more than
one year. We will have to drag along
and be patient.

THE RS

The Stats papers take kindly to the Tri-
bune's suggestion proposing Charles f.
Bicknell for Speaker OF the next Assembly.
Ia reality Charley Is the only man elected
to the lower branch OF the Legislature who
is qualified to fill the position .-Carson
Tribune.
That would seem to imply q weak lot Of
men. We had hoped that there would
never be elected In Nevada again another
Legislature like the last. As . matter OF
fact. about all q Nevada Legislature ever
thinks Of doing IL to record the will Of
three or four Republican bosses. No one
ever accuses 1t Of having any sense Of Its
own. We elect men to make laws for rs
who do not know the names Of the States
comprising the American Union. Eureka
has sometimes disgraced itself 10 this way.
OF course there are q few honorable excep-
tIons-just enough to prove the truth Of
the general rule. We are not intimating
anything against Mr.. Bicknell's fitness for
Speaker. We believe he would make q
very good me-. He has had wide expert.
ence in legislative proceedings az Secre-
tary Of the Nevada Senate 10 former years.
Charley Bicknell ought to be more than an
average parlismentarian. But we imagine
that he will be found TO lack the decision
and force so necessary in the ideal presid-
ing officer. We have known Charley In
vain II be is not 9 difident man. who
would rather listen thar act himself. But
the SENTINEL is for him for lang syns.

EFFECT OF THE DOWNWARD
SLIDE.

The downward slide Of silver is having
its effect on the furnaces and other buy
ers of ores all over the mining regions
where custom ores are purchased. Ihe
rule is to settle for ores purchased BY the
daily New York quotations for silver.
For the last month the buyers have been
getting the worst Of it, as silver has not
unfrequently fluctuated from three 70
four points in a day under the Sherman
Jones-Stewsrt-Bar silver law which
all Of these demsgogues and special plead
ers claim to be "better than free coin
age" The loss to some Of the heaviest
buyers Of ores in these parts has been
very considerable. The silver market
has continued to go down, down, down,
steadily day by day. II slumPed or
jumped or ~corfumexed three points on
Wednesday Of this week. One buyer
lost on q single batch Of ore 500 over
night by the down hill hop, skip and
lump Of silver in the Wall street market.
This same buyer wakes up of nights &c
curse old Bill Stewart for saying that the
new fraud Of a silver law is "better than
free coinage and he is q Republican,
too. The truth is, the new law is not Z
silver law at all. 1t is q political Law
passed to pull the Republican party II
Congress out OF the snti.free coinage
nine hole into which il had fallen by OPP
posing BANDS motion and standing b,
the Window fraud. Think Of q lot o.
idiots, or scoundrels, representing a State
like Nevada in Congress, voting Tor .
measure to make Of silver a commodity
like hoop.po ! and pumpkins Tar and
feathers, or . rope, is what they richly
| deserve.

KANSAS CRY, Nov l2.-The Farmers
Advocate, the official paper Of the Farm
ers' Alliance. the peoples party OF Kan
sas, has the following TO say OF the fu-
ture Of the party: 1--WE shall al once
commence to marshal the hosts OF the
people for the conflict Of 1892. In this
great work there are many prejudices to
overcome. Sectional lines must be
abolished. Interests which are identi-
cal must be brought together against the
combined forces Of the corporations,
monopolies, trusts, s~yndicates and mon
eyed a~ristocrats who have for years
Toasted upon the substance OF the peo'
pie, When we say that these forces are
TO be marshaled against the oppressors
of the people we do not mean the in
Justice which has characterized the cor
porate power Of America is to be re-
turned in kind. The people simply ask
for iustice-that alone, and that, by the
Eternal, they will have. =,
"The coming contest, therefore, Will
not take place between the Northern
and Southern sections OF our country.
The interests Of the people Of the West
and South are identical and their pohti-
cal forces must be consolidated against
the power of corporate greed. We may
| as well recognize this fact now as to per.
| nit our prejudices to postpone the day
| OF its recognition. The professional pol.
| i~ticians Of both parties, both North and
| South, who have devoted their lives so
a~ssiduously to the promotion OF corpor-
ate interests, recognize that this union
Of the two sections is the great danger
that threatens the power OF monopoly;
and they, therefore, constantly aim to
keep alive the p~rejudices that have es-
tranged them, only to prey upon them,
and maintain political supremacy by
their alienation.
at has been and is the holy mission
of the Farmers Alliance to subdue this
sectional prejudice. 1t is full time for
| this Nation to become united. Did the
hosts Of the army in blue face shot and
shell to maintain and perpetuate . more
perfect union, or to divide the Nation
into contending sections? II the former,
let us see to it that those who fell did
not perish in vain. Let us see to it that
those Of their comrades who survived
may live to see Q country redeemed and
its liberties restored. Down with al
sectional lines; away with all sectional
prejudices; let the pipes Of patriotism
that still burn in the hearts Of the peo-
pie consume the p~rejudices Of the past
Let one flag float over us and one spiri'
80 perfectly pervade our hearts that w
shall be able and willing to stand shoul-
Her to shoulder in the great fray tina
must make lasting the conquest OF thu
hosts Of corporate greed that are fatten-
ing upon the stolen substance OF thu

NOTES FROM
4 Reno Lady Gives Her Impression
of the Northern Boom Metropolis.

OF the Northern Boom Metropolis.
Virginia Chronicle: A private letter
from Mrs. R. Fl. Lindsay, who with her
husband and family emigrated from Reno
to make their home in Seattle nearly
three months ago, gives some items Of
interest as follows:
"No one here seems to have much
time for social life, or for any other bus.
mess than buying and selling lots
There are more real estate places than
all other businesses combined, and
don't believe there is q bank or store, os-
tensibly devoted to other matters, where
you could not strike up a trade in real
estate. Food of all kinds is compare
lively poor and high-priced, with the ex'
ception Of meats, and fuel is very nearly
as costly as in Reno. although they are
burning down timber by the hundreds Of
acres to get it out Of the way. But no
body can get time to cut down the trees
and make 6rewood of them, they are In
such a hurry to get the land staked of
into lots"
Rents are much higher than in Ssr
Francisco, and much poorer accommoda-
ton given for the money.
The street cable service system is ex-
c%ellent, good sidewalks and electric light
everywhere, ever far out in the suburbs.
The water is not very good, and sewerage
in a state of chaos.
Magnificent business blocks are goine
up, not to be surpassed by anything in
San Francisco. and the public schoo
buildings are ahead Of San Francisco, and
the system OF instruction Oh the kinder
garten lines.
The mail service here is q fearful and
wonderful thing, but 1t is hopefully or
the improve. I am not 80 enthusiastic
over this place as some, but when we gel
fairly settled down into q full resumption
Of domestic life I guess I shall like II
better and feel more at home"
