A THE A

At the mass meeting held in San
Francisco last Tuesday night, by Ital-
ians, to consider the New Orleans
tragedy, some very hot-headed
speeches were made. One Of the
orators of the occasion, f. N. Belgrano,
was roundly applauded for the follow
ing u~tterance.
al have made a sad mistake in be-
coming an American and l am sorry
for it. | have waited for the smoke Of
the guns to clear away, and now
want your attention for a moment. i
am calm, but as becomes one with
Italian blood and a Sandman heart,
J ask you can American money pay
the price of Italian blood? We de-
mand more than blood for blood, we
demand that the American flag shall
be draped with Grape and fly from the
Capitol at Washington beneath the
Italian colors, as evidence Of repara-
ton on the part of the United States.'
1t is not such mothings as this that
will create a widespread American sen
timent in favor OF reparation,
In fact, the sooner such men give up
their American citizenship and go
back to Sardinia, the better will it be
for all concerned. They are not fit to
be citizens OF this Republic, neither
are those who abet them, neither are
those who applaud them. Kept under
the bondage at monarchy at home,
they are unused to the air ofliberty, and
they misuse and degrade the freedom
given them under this Government.
The American people are pa~tiantx~nd
iong-suffering, but II is not safe TO
crowd them too much sacramento

The Silver State says the wood-cut
likeness Of G. G. Wallace, in the Reno
Gazette Of Friday, March 20, is a good
likeness Of Charley Wallace, and while
the Gazette is so liberal as to publish
the likeness Of Wallace il should con-
tinue on in the good work and give
the likeness of every n Of the men,
bers that Wallace controlled and
handled. With but few exceptions
the newspapers Of the State Of Nevada
during the last Winter gave Wallace a
kick whenever an opportunity offered,
and oftimes when it was not deserved.
Certain it is that Wallace la not at
fault in securing the support of any
member OF the Legislature for any
measure that he advocated, as almost
any one else would have done the
same thing either in their W or their
employers interest, and il there is to
be any one censured let the censure
fall where it is ~deserved-on those
members that were 30 easily led to
support measures in the interest OF
corporations that employed these
lobbyists. Certain il is that Wallace
was never known to abuse a member
for not voting for a measure advocated
by him. All his manipulating was
done in a gentlemanly manner, and IL
the Gazette will pay more attention to
the members that fell down to worship
at the shrine Of Eureka county's boss
it will be doing a good thing.

Governor Colcord returned Stearns'
bill repeating the ~ o'clock law in all
counties OF the State except Washoe,
Storey and Ormsby, to the Senate with
his disapproval, showing that it was
special legislation and clearly uncon-
s~titutional. The veto was sustained,
and one OF the best laws aver placed on
the Statute books remains in force.
The Tribune fought the proposed re-
peal from the start, and OF course is
grati6ed to see the law remain in
force. While pleased that efforts to
repeal the law failed, the Tribune can
not but admire the ~unceasing and
manly fight Charley Wallace made to
have the law repealed. He promised
the Eureka people before election that
he would make every effort possible to
secure a repeal, and he left no stone
unturned to accomplish his object.
Finding it impossible to effect a gem
eral repeal, he made concessions and
secured the passage Of the Stearns'
bill, only to be knocked out at the
eleventh hour by the Governor,
backed by the Constitution Carson
Tribune.
