than Frauk Newlands. lie has
fought Tor us in Washington, in San

speeches in nearly every silver State
In tho Union besides going ove to

thousands OF miles at his own ex-

a GREAT MISTAKE.

II someone uili tell us why it would
be better to send Bartine, Cleveland,
Foley or Williams to tho United States
Senate than Vim. NJ. Stewart, we will
listen with attention. We are not
claiming that Mr.. Durtine did not do
oil Ill his power il Congress 10 help
free coinage; but what did that
amount to? Does tho record show.
that no accomplished anything? Yes!
He succeeded in placing a duty on
laad-silrer orc, and this TO some extent
has helped the miners in the Galena
orc districts OF this State. But the
main issue for Nevada is free and un-
limited coinage, and the lead silver
ore sections would not cHre a snap
about the duty being OF this product
il they could get el.29 for the silver
they produce. Outside OF this meas
uro he has failed to accomplish much,
and the other aspirants TOR the Sem
atorship outside ui Stewart, would
probably not be able to accomplish
this much. Senator Stewart has re-
pcated!y passed free coinage bills in
the Senate but they have met with
defeat III the House. Besides this he
has looked after other matters CON
cerniug Nevada, and obtained more
for the State thnn any other man ever
did Tor us. Aud this ia tho man who
we are told must he defeated. What
I'm idiotic policy il would be for the
people Of this State to adopt. With
the defeat OF Stewart for U. 5. Sem
ntor the gold bugs will gain control
of thu silver question for years to
come, and there will be rs little agita-
ton about it as there was before he
was sent to Washington six years ago.
