Long Bros. Show.

Long Bros circus and dog show
drew a crowded house last night,
The children were out in force and
their merry laughter showed that
they enjoyed the antics of the clowns
and the tricks OF the dogs. The per-
formances on the trapeze and horri-
zontal bars we're excellent and elicit
ell rounds OF applause. The closing
farce provoked much laughter and
sent the audience hone in the best Of
humor.
This is one or the best companies
that has ever stopped in Elko and
their patronage last evening shows
that our people appreciate good
show. They will give another enter
tainment tonight with nearly an en-
tire change OF programme aud we
predict another full house.

to vote in November next, because
take it for granted that the Silver
electors are sure to he elected in this
State. We have also met for the pur-
pose of instructing them. In our first
conventions perfect harmony reigned;
the most perfect harmony that ever
saw in convention existed through
out its proceedings. Let US hope
gentlemen, that our proceedings will
be conducted with such moderation,
with such a desire for the success of
our course, Independent of individual
or personal preferences that when we
leave this hall we will be able to say
that this convention has been equally
harmonious.
The convention WAS not called for
the purpose OF making any nomina-
tons for office, but we have new the
spectacle Of rump Republican con
ventiou. have thus dubbed the an IT,
silver Harrison convention, that is its
true designation, because no man
can favor Benjamin Harrison for
President Of the United States, and
DO true silver man. They have
met in convention, have nominated
Presidential electors, styling them
selves the Republican convention OF
this State Our Secretary of State, 1
am told, is in full sympathy with the
gold-bugs of the United States, and
that he will probably recognize that
convention, although it only com
prised about one-third of tho Repub.
licans who had been elected to the
State Convention, as the regular con-
vention of the Republicans. No doubt
he will do that!
The Democratic party passed in
their regular convention the nominal
tion OF electors, bnt nominated a
Member Of Congress with whose most
tragic death you have been acquainted
with since the nomination was made.
But call was made for meeting OF
the Democratic State Central Com
mittee. Thirty-two of the members
of that committee. am informed,
were opposed to the nominations of
any silver electors by the Democratic
party, but postmaster, that is an ex
postmaster, one of Cleveland's up
pointees and three or four employees
OF the mint under Cleveland with. u
proxy or two, got together and they
nominated what they style u Demo
cratic electoral ticket, and nominated
candidate for Congress and candi-
dates for Regents or the State Uni
versty, and no doubt the Secretary
OF State sympathizing with these
gentlemen will recognize them as the
regular Democratic party of Nevada
and place the names on the ticket that
they placed in nomination, because
these men, these gold bugs and these
tools of gold.bugs are all in sympathy.
They are thick as thieves. The result
will be that we will have to place the
choice OF the Silver party OF Nevada
in nomination by certificates that is,
we must name in those certificates
(more familiarly styled petitions) the
names Of the parties we desire to
nominate for the respective oifces
from electors down, including Mem
Der Of Congress, Regents of the Uni
versity and Judge of the Supreme
Court.
Nov, while this convention was not
called for the purpose OF making these
nominations, it seems TO me that it
would not be calculated to introduce
any feature that would produce or
show lack of harmony. For us at
least TO express 10 the people our

loving test to govern voters at the

date who does not favor the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at legal
ratio of 16 to l."
We invite the cooperation Of every
person who loves his country better
than his party, who believes in action
rs well as in words, who not only de-
clares that he favors the free and un-

ent legal ratio of l6 to l, but who is
willing by his vote to demonstrate the

No Perfect Figure. in chIeago.

1t is reported that one of the artists
on the exhibition buildings is in a guam
Diary. He wishes to paint the figure of
a physically perfect human being on
one of the ceilings and cannot find a
model. But why should he want one?
He will not discover perfection in
humanity, and if he has in his minds
eye the ideal of the perfection he wishes
to represent he ought to be able to de-
lineate it ''al fresco." That is what the
artists of the world and their admirers
have called 'creation," to distinguish it
from the more servile work of merely
copying what is set before them. This
particular artist may be justified by the
code of the profession, and yet it may be
regarded as a pity that he cannot rise
above the recognized necessity and dis
pense with the mental pos .-Chicago

The remedy which remains TO MIR.
Gladstone in case the house of lords re-
fuses to pass his Irish home rule bill
after it has been accepted by the COM
mons is to prepare a list of a large num-
Der of new peers who are Liberal home
rulers and recommend their creation by
the queen. There is not lacking prece-
dent. both in English and French his
tory, for the creation by a prime minis
ter of peers for political purposes. By
this means Gladstone would get a ma
jority for his own party in the house Of
lords, Justin Mccarthy thinks, how
ever. that rather than see themselves
swamped by new Liberal peers in this
way the present house of lords will shut
their eyes and gulp down Gladstone's
home rule bill when it comes up at the
next session of parliament.

two farmers who are both we'll known

gether in a buggy coming here, and
when they were near Joe Roney's place
a chicken hawk lit on the side of the
road. "Look vt that hawk" said Mr..
Beckwith. Eyes, | see him" said Mr..
Pitcher. They drove on, and the hawk
didn't move. They drew nearer and
nearer and finally were almost up to the
bird. Mr.. Beckwith took up his whip
and as they reached the hawk made a
crack at it. The blow struck just right,
and the hawk was struck full in the
neck. The crack was SO well made that
the full force was executed and the
head was cut clean off. The gentlemen
brought the hawk and its head to town
