In speech at Democratic jollif-
cation meeting Gov. Boies, of Iowa, &C.
knowledged that his election was due
to the AUTHORIZATION sentiment
which is growing rapidly in the Hawk
eye state, and expressed the hope that
the protest of the people against Pro-
hibition would not be disregarded
Republicans should learn lesson from
Iowa and not waste their substance up
on such an impractical question as Pro-
hibition. The amount of reform in
drinking produced by Prohibition is
vastly overbalanced by the many vices
it calls into action. A good license law
properly enforced, with local option, is
the most successful way to deal with
the liquor traffic and we believe brings
about the most satisfactory results to
the community.

Some Of the papers of this State are
suggesting methods of reducing ex-
penses without holding a Constitu-
tional Convention. Why they should
oppose the popular will in this matter
seems inexplicabIe to ordinary NOR
tails, but there is doubtless a cause for
it. Ii is right and proper that the
Legislature should do all in its power
TO reduce State expenditures to the
lowest figures compatible with good
government, but the present constitu-
ton provides for offices which expe-
rience proves are not necessary, and
the Legislature, however willing, can
not dispense with them.
The Legislature has been tinkering
with the constitution for years without
improving it to any appreciable extent,
and finally becoming tired OF the BUSH
ness, decided to submit the question
of calling a convention to frame a new
constitution to the people. At the
last general election a majority Of the
electors voted for such a convention.
Ii is the popular method OF remedy
ing defects in the present funda-
mental law Of the State.
The members of the Legislature
who insist, regardless of the opposi-
ton OF bosses, on canvassing the vote
for a Constitutional Convention, and
providing for the meeting of such con-
vention, can point to the fact that they
are obeying the will of the majority
and performing their sworn duty

How MonId a Work.

Cannot the citizens OF this State
the taxpayers-organize g ghost dance
in the Capitol square during the ses-
sion OF the Legislature and in that
way get some wholesome laws passed
and State expenses cut down. 1t
would be pretty cold work and the
Gazette does not know as anything
could be accomplished by it. Still it
might have the effect Of keeping the
lobby in its place and stimulating the
honor Of the members. Reno Gazette.
There ought to be a sure-enough
ghost dance at the Capitol, if the
Legislature ignores the voice OF the
people in the Constitutional Conven-
ton matter, or if it falls to redeem
its pledge to pass the Australian bal
lot aw.-Virginia Chronicle.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CoNvEN.
TON.

The Legislature will perpetrate the
foulest outrage on the people of Me-
vada II il does not at once, on owen
ing, call a Constitutional Convention.
To say that there is no authority for
any one to canvas the vote on the
call, does not by any means say that
the will Of the people should not be
the will Of the Legislature, should not
be supreme. II there be no power to
canvass the vote, then the sovereign
will of the people may never be grant,
ed, Nevada may never have a Con-
situtional Convention.
The State is in a fine mess, COM
pletely in the hands OF the manipula-
tors and " bosses under this rule.
But suppose no authority is expressly
given. The Legislature may lawfully
do anything not prohibited.
Is the Legislature prohibited from
calling a Convention? Certainly not.
The people having voted for a conven-
ton, the Legislature must call it, or be
branded as a high-handed, arbitrary
and rebellious body, usurping au-
thoriy it has not.
What is the Legislature?
The people OF Nevada.
What have the people of Nevada
voted for?
A Constitutional Convention.
Will the Legislature call a conven-
ton?
Yes, or else every member of that
body should be eternally placed on
the black list of Nevada's history, and
buried so deep in infamy that they
would not and could not rise any more
forever.-People's Advocate.

They Are All In sauna.

We wonder il this Legislature will
maintain the reputation and follow in
the footsteps of its predecessor. The
rule has been for the press, at the be-
ginning of the session, to denominate
the assembled representatives as the
most intelligent body that ever as
sembled in the State. After awhile,
when things begin to move along mer-
rily, comes the intimation that that
shadowy hand of corruption is dis
cernible. Then come the open charges
Of venality. At the adjournment
there is the newspaporial sigh OF relief
that the people are no longer in dan
ger; that they can pay the bills and
hope for better results the next time.
However, the evil seems to be a neces-
sity.-Sac. Themis.

ARsON Letter.
A Lively Legislative Caucus-Boss
Rule Ignored The List of APP
p~Oininenfs Made

CARSON, Jan. 10, 1891.
EDITOR CHRONICLE: The Republi-
a members here held a series Of
wrangling c~aucusses, commencing
Saturday evening and ending this
Monday morning at l o'clock, that
has caused much dissatisfaction and
some encouragement among true and
honorable members who feel it their
duty to obey the demands OF the peo-
pie instead OF the orders OF schemers.
The attempt was made to start off
with a bogus organization under the
plea OF economy and reform. The
scheme was to dispense with assistant
attaches generally and several inn
portant clerkships without which
legislation could not be protected from
the efforts Of vicious persons under the
pay of bosses. Members who are anx-
ious to assist the State out OF the mire,
OF who have been members OF former
sessions, were early to discover the
huge darky posing in the distance and
grew quite vehement in expressing
their condemnation, and give Senator
Gallagher much credit for throwing
the first bomb that began scattering
the forces of the plotters against the
calling OF a Constitutional Convention.
1t would be well for some Of the
bosses-whose names / will not now
mention-to understand that the cur
tain behind which they expectto con-
ceal themselves is easily perforated
nowadays and the path leading to it is
not so labyrinthian as formerly, and
the finger-boards OF these days seldom
misdirect. To submit longer to boss
rule and the evil of conscienceless
legislators will be 10 allow an immov-
able plaster OF disgrace placed upon
the State that l do not believe the peo-
pie Of Nevada will tamely permit.
Legislators have been elected to per-
form more important duties this ses-
sion than any have for any previous
session. They know their duty and
must not shirk. They should remem
Der that Benton served thirty years in
the United States Senate, but when
he disobeyed the demands OF his con
stituents he wal retired. 1t is not
easily told what the people Of Nevada
might do il their recently elected SER
wants fail to compile with the demands
that were directly coupled with their
Observation-Disclosures.

The underhanded way the twelve
Senators went to work to get the or
g~anization of the Senate Sunday has
created much bad blood. The six
who were left out Of the caucus feel
aggrieved, ashley have reason to, and if
the twelve who took the reins into
their own hands do not regret it before
the session is over we will be badly
mistaken. In fact the majority of the
twelve now feel ashamed of their ac-
tons and would take it back if they
could, but some Of them have too
thick a skin to care anything about it,
further than to fear that they will get
paid back with interest before the
close Of the session.-Reno Gazette.

The Meat N

The Reno Gazette has the following :
The beef market give indications of
better prices in the near future. A
well-known San Francisco butcher
told a Gazette reporter that if he bad
money he would have no hesitancy in
putting it into beef cattle at the present
prices and holding them for a raise.
He said that Arizona had but about
10000 fat steers left and that only
about 5000 OF them would find their
way into the San Francisco market, as
Los Angeles, San Diego and the sur
rounding country would use fully
1000. He also said that good beef
was getting very scarce in California
and the most of it was rough meat at
best, and that it would be May before
grass beef would come in.

Na Other Alternative.

Mr.. ii. ii. Beck, of Reno, in his
speech before the State Board of Trade
said that the Legislature should either
call a Constitutional Convention or
cut down expenses so people can live
in the State. The people have already
called for a Constitutional Convention
and all that the Legislature has to do
is to canvass the vote and make such
provision for a convention as the con-
stitution directs. AS no material re-
duction OF expenses can be made I'M
der our present constitution, there is
no other alternative than the first
clause in Mr.. Beck's suggestion, which
has been directed by a vote of the peo-
ple.
