SIGNIFICANT SIGNS

The light votes at the Republican
primaries of last Saturday is regard
ed as significant by everybody who
investigates It.
Nothing like it was ever known IN
the history of politics in this State.
Virginia City polled bur 259 votes
and Gold Ei.l 139. This city gave
66 votes. Ii Reno there were but
% votes polled and in Eureka eigh-
teen delegates to be elected only
polled twenty-four votes. In other
localities the vote was so small that
the party papers refrain from mems
tioning it at all, but content them
selves with the names of the dele
gates elected.
This merely shows that Repubh-
cans all over the State are remaining
away from the primaries to be foot
loose in the silver battle this Fall.
When the Democrats hold thelr
primaries the vote cast will very soon
demonstrate whether they are as
earnest as the Republicans on the
Silver question.

The Illiterate Can't Vote.

Secretary of State Grey has asked
Attorney General Torreyson for an
opinion on Section % of the Aus
tralian Ballot Law.
Section % Statutes 1891, p. 4o),
reads as follows: "a voter who de-
clares under oath, that by reason OF
physical disability, he is unable to
mark his ballot, shall at his request
be permitted to receive the assist
ance, in such marking, of an elector,
other than an election officer, but no
person shall be permitted to go in
side the guard rail as an assistant to
moro than one voter.
The Attorney General holds that
physical disability does not mean
mental disability, and person who
cannot read and write cannot have
an assistant.
This is undoubtedly the correct In
depreciation of the law, and mar
who cannot read his ticket cannoi
vote. This will materially lessen the
membership of The sell-out clubs
and give Nevada chance to repudi'
ate the title Of "rotten borough"

PURE BosH.

When it comes to writing pure
bosh, we think the Reno Gazette is
entitled to the palm. 1t says:
The Gazette man was good deal
surprised yesterday to hear bust
ness man argue the possibility and
even probability OF third party
holding the balance Of power in the
House, thereby enabling it to name
the next President if there was no
majority in the Electoral College. 1t
was almost impossible to convince
the gentleman, who is generally well
informed, that the present Congress,
if any, is the one that will elect the
next President, and that the terms
of the members will expire on the
same day that the next Chief Ex-
ecutive is inaugurated. The gentle
man when finally convinced of his
error, frankly Acknowledged that his
reason for favoring the organization
of a third party was knocked In the
head, and he expressed his determ-
nation to have nothing to do with a
movement which could only assist to
foist free trade gold bug OF the
worst type in the executive chair for
the next fur years"
A sensible business man who would
be influenced by such an argument
as the above is not sufficiently intel
ligent to vote on any question.
The next Congress viii be com
posed of moro silver men than the
present one, where the gold and
silver men are SO nearly even that
neither dare come TO vote.
The present Congress had ma
jority of over forty for Sly r, and
the gold bugs had to buy it llp. When
these fall down" fellows SIT home,
the way they VIII De ca.led 70 account
by their swindled constituents viii
cause them very soon TO reach the
conclusion that it is rot healthy to
repudiate pledges.
The silver feeling will be 50 strong
when Congress meets again, that
they will not dare try to stem the
current.
The Farmers Alliance, with over
three million votes for silver, will
have a great deal to do with shaping
the course OF Congress, and If a
third party throws the election of a
President into the House, the man
elected will neither be Harrison nor
Cleveland

The Ring Trap Set for COIored
Voters.

The ring set trap to catch the
colored voters which has sprung and
our cOlored citizens are now looking
out between the Stats to see how they
can get out.
The triggers We're set at the Kriscn
hall meeting by passing a resolution
authorizing committee to nominate
q county ticket for them. This was
protested against but the protest was
not listened to, and now the colored
voters are told that they are bound
hand and foot to vote for Callaghan.
Our colored citizens are disposed to
be free men, aud good citizens, and
such trap lie not likely to hold them
until the day OF election. Among our
cOlored citizens are many taxpayers
and worthy. people who will resent
such apparent trlckery. Their inter-
ests are Identical with the interests of
our best citizens and they Will vote to
down the ring.

The Ticket Conspiracy.

Attention has been called to the
fact that the ring had put up q job
on the people In the matter of decid-
ing on the style of the ticket. The
idea has been to waste the time I'M
til the day of the election so that in
telligent voters who will have to
make up their own tic kets will not be
able to acquaint themselves with the
form OF the ticket, and thereby be de-
tered from voting. The illiterate voter
will be thoroughly drill led and taken
care of by judges selected by the
ring.
There is a regular trade on hand in
which the ticket figures very promi-
nently. The agreement being to put
the Clark state ticket In the first
place with Terrell for congress and
the Callaghsn county ticket. Let the
people keep their attention on this
thing, and determine to vote in spits
of the conspiracy and trickery being
produced on them.

Yesterday afternoon at o'clock the
Masters court resumed its labOrs pur
suent to adjournment in the forenoon
Only very few minutes were devoted to
the business at hand. On the opening of
court Messrs. Newton and BergStrom
said they had no further testimony to
offer and as Col. Houston was in the same
mood, the trial was declared ended
Some talk was INDUCED in about arguing
the case but as none of the parties SEEM
ed over anxious it was submitted without
argument.
1t wiiltake at least three weeks for the
stenOgrapher to transcribe her notes, as
the testimony is very volumnious and at
the end Of that time Judge Flemming
will deliver his opinion. Before doing
so, however, he will show it to the attor-
neys in the case, so they may make. il
they so desire, objections and take a bill

BERGSTROM MAKES A BREAK
AT YOAKUM.

His Friends Catch and Hold Him.
Last evening Mr.. B. F. Yoskum
stopped at the corner of Commerce
street and Main plaza to talk mo-
ment to an acquaintance, and while
there Mr.. Bergstrom, Mcnamara,
Cooper, s. g. Newton, and maybe
others came out of Brady's saloon Mr..
Yoakum started around the corner
home Tor and shortly afterward Mr..
Bergstrom made break up the street
and in pursuit of YOakum. He was
followed closely by Mr.. Mcnamara,
who overlook him as he halted mo-
ment in front of the Revolving
Light saloon, and holding him
till others of his friends came
up and induced him to desist In
his intention of attacking YOskum.
Mr.. Yoakum was several yards in adj
vance of the point where Bergstrom
was stopped, and evidently did not
know of the intended assault, as he
went on home without noticing the
occurrence. AS Bergstrom passed the
corner he was heard to remark that
he would do something to the s.
-. and policeman coming on
the scene while Bergstrom was being
demonstrated with, was told by by.
stander that the city attorney had
gun and was after Yoakum.
1t will be remembered that the
Arkansas Pass railway receivership
investigation had closed during the
day, and that during that investiga-
ton Mr.. Yoakum had testified very
strongly to the detriment of Mr..
Bergstrom, as the man through
whom a large amount of election
Doodle was paid at the last election.
Hence the bad blood. No arrests
were made, nor was it seen that any
pistol was drawn by Bergstrom, but
his halt under the light in front of
the saloon was thought to be to get a
bead on his man.

reporter passed the opera house last night
at $50 o'clock and the house was not
open. The ushers, two or three country
people and one drama tic critic composed
the flair audience" They were patiently
waiting for the doors to be opened. 1t
is thought the performance did not come
of, simply because the fair audience
would not pay the expenses. 1t will be
remem bered that there was no matinee
yesterday, as was announced. Moral:

THE NEWS OF THE DAY,

A move is being made in Congress to inves-
tigate the methods of naturalizing foreigners
in New York. The House Committee on I'M
migration on Saturday was told that of 6,S71
foreigners natnraliZed in one court in New
York last October 1900 were A ustrians, Rus
slams and Italians. Of this whole number
Mr. Davenport gives it as his opinion that
only 800 paid the expenses of taking out their
naturalization papers. The expenses of all
the rest were paid he says, by political Or
CARNATIONS.
The wife of Robert Glasgow, all industrious
colored man OF Page county, who has an I'M
governable temper, put out her husband S
eyes last week in shocking manner. She
wound up tongue flashing by dipping tin
pail of boiling water from the pot on the
stove and throwing it full in his face. While
he was dancing around the room in par
oxvsm of agony, his step-son thinking he was
attacking his mother. felled him to the floor
with bar of iron. 1t is not thought Glasgow
will live.
