Plain Bot Truthful Talk.

The Constitution directs the Legis-
~lature, if a majority Of the votes in the
State are cast for a Constitutional Con-
vention, to enact a law providing for
the holding of the same. Every
legislator takes an oath to support the
Constitution Of the State, which means
OF course to obey it. Amajority Of the
votes cast at the last election were in
favor OF a Constitutional Convention.
The legislator who violates his official
oath is a perjurer. A p~erjurer is a
scoundrel. Refusing to enact a law
for the holding OF a Constitutional
Convention under the present condi-
tons, is a violation of the Constitution.
This in a legislator under his oath is
perjury. Hence, a legislator who
votes against a bill providing for the
holding OF a Convention is a perjurer
and a scoundrel. This is plain talk,
but it is truth all the same, for the
connection ia complete and there is no
broken link in the chain which CON
meets the plain provision OF the Con-
stitution with the sworn duty Of the
legislator in this matter Virginia
Chronicle.

In our legislative report to-day will
TIC seen mat McFadden offered a reso-
luton on Monday in the Assembly,
the same as that offered by Foley in
the Senate, requiring the Clerk of Eu-
reka county, to appear before the
Assembly, with the ballots cast in
said Eureka county, in order that the
Assembly might thoroughly under
stand how thssvote stood on the call
ing of a Constitutional Convention in
that county. The resolution was in
definitely postponed by a vote OF % to
Is, which virtually settles the calling
Of a Constitutional Convention. The
bosses got away with it, and there will
be no Convention. We are glad to
notice that the Humboldt delegation
stood well up to the rack, and voted
for the calling of a Convention. So,
also, did the Elko, Nye, White Pine,
Washoe and Douglas delegates, and
Gignoux OF Lyon and McFadden OF
Lincoln, and those that opposed the
calling OF a Convention were the mem
bers Immediately around the bosses

VIVA, Three senator. Say.

The Washington correspondent Of
the Salt Lake Tribune telegraphs that
journal as follows under date Of the
2nd inst Senator Stewart said to
me This morning hat any free coinage
bill which could be passed would be
vetoed by the President, and that it
would need two or three Presidential
Yetoes to bring the matter before the
country with such overwhelming
force that the demand would be so
resistless that it could not be longer
opposed. He added that in his judg-
ment the greater menace to perpetu-
alton Of the Republican party was the
attitude which its members were TAX
ing upon the question of the free coin
age Of silver. This view is also taken
by Senator Teller, and | understand
by senator Jones, not ono of whom
look for the passage Of financial legis-
lation during the present Congress-"

Against Their Constituents.

The Carson Appeal, in an article on
the Constitutional Convention, saysthe
counties Of Elko, Eureka, Esmeralda,
Humboldt, Lander, Lyon, Nye and
Washoe gave majorities for a Constitu-
tional Convention. Had the Senators
from the counties noted obeyed the
wishes OF their constituents. the vote
in the Senate would have been four
teen for a Convention, to six against
it. In the House, if the principle OF
carrying out the will of the majority
prevailed, the vote would stand %
for a Convention and IS against it.
The Senators who respected their
oath and their constituents We're EN-
mitt, Foley, La Grave, Sproule, Saw
yer and Williams OF Ormsby. In the
House the members who acted for the
people and against the bosses are
Ainley, Graves, Gignoux, Hansen,
johnson, Kinney, Leeper, McFadden,
Mcclellan, Murphy, McGill, Nixon,
Thompson, Weighed, Warburton and
Wager.
The Senators and Assemblymen
who, in compliance with the will of
the majority, voted for a Convention,
did nothing more than their sworn
duty, but it has come to this in Nevada
that members Of the Legislature who
do that deserve praise and are entitled
to the confidence of their fellow citi-
Zena.

hfSh4tHt ufe Rek1fohMA -
A resident Of Winnemucca, in a
communication to the Reno Journal,
after quoting the provisions in the
State Constitution relating to the Of
fetal oaths of Legislators and the
manner Of calling a Constitutional
Convention, says:
What is the plain and sworn duty
OF the members OF the present Legisla-
ture? To provide for the legal canvass
Of said vote, andif it appear that a ma
jority OF the electors voted for calling a
Convention, to then provide by law
for calling it. Can any member evade
this duty without perjury on his part,
whether he be individually in favor Of
such Convention or not? Will the
people permit our lawmakers to COM
NIT a gross crime and go unwhipped
of justice? II they do, they deserve to
become slaves and the laughing stock
of knaves. 1t is well understood that
there is combination OF those opposed
to the Convention to thwart the will
Of the people by prevailing upon the
Legislature to preserve a mastery in
activity and let the matter go by de-
fault.
1.-THE people may be thus deied
and insulted and lose the Convention,
but they a transfer from the Legisla-
tive halls to the State Prison all men,
bers Of the Legislature who defeat the
popular will in this matter, either by
bold opposition or n~on-action.
"The citizens Of each county should
appoint a committee to act in conjunc-
ton, be on hand in Carson when the
Legislature adjourns, and arrest and
prosecute all members thus guilty Of
perjury before they have an opportu-
nitv to pack their paper collars and
leave the State. This is a plain duty,
and it should be entered upon with
vigor and determination. Let no
guilty man escape"
