HON. FRANCIS q. NEwLANRs
Was then introduced and received
with rapturous applause.
Owing to the latanes Of the hour
and the length of Mr.. Newlands
speech, it was impossible to have it
Transcribed and placed in condition
for the printer. His address was
mastery and his arguments irrefut-
able. He was frequently interrupted
by rapturous applause, and held the
attention Of the audience through~
out.
The said that self-preservation is
the first law Of nature, and he would
refuse to believe that there is a citi-
zen In the State Of Nevada, who
would do anything that would not
tend to its welfare and preservation.
More than one-half the people of the
State are engaged in or dependent
upon the mining industry, and with
out that industry what would become
of our State! With the immense
amount of wealth that has been taken
from the mines even now Nevada |
should be prosperous, if proper legis>
lation in regard to silver had been |
enacted. Instead of enriching and |
building up our own State, what has
become of its wealth! 1t has gone
to enrich an ungrateful city, whose
every effort is i'll opposition to our
interests.
Mr. Newlands drew a vivid pen
picture of the desolation which has
been brought about by legislation
antagonistic to silver. I'm Candelaria
he had a personal interview with the
Superintendent Of the only mine in
operation, and from him learned that
it was simply for humanity's sake
that the mine was kept open at all,
as with silver at its present price the
was running behind month
i. Unless something is done in the
of silver, and very soon,
the Superintendent said he would !
certainly be obliged to close down
which would mean the depopulation
Of the entire town.
In other places where good proper
ties might be developed, prospectors
sat around the stove and discussed
the silver question, not having the
heart to make any effort at develop
ment. In Storey county the mines
are capable of sustaining a very large
but will the price of sis
yer warrant it! In that district there
IS any quantity of low grade ore,
which at the present time will not
pay for working If it were not for
,he present system of assessments
of the mines on the Com
stock would be closed. If stock
holders refuse to pay assessments the
mines will be shut down. Orrnsby
