EIka County Republican PIsE!n,

WHEREAS. We, the representatives
OF the Republicans of tilko county, in
convention assembled, do recognize

the most beftting occasion for the
enunciation Of our principles, and the
declaration of our loyalty to the car
dinal doctrines of Republicanism,
therefore he it
Resolved, That we, as Republicans
of the State of Nevada, will cast IL
votes for those Presidential electors
Of this State, whom we know to be
unreservedly In favor of the free and
unlimited coinage of silver equally
with gold, and who will cast the cleo
toral vote of the State of Nevada for
no one, who does not favor the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to l. And we therefore
recommend the voters Of this county
TO cast their ballots for the silver
electoral ticket, nominated at Reno,
June oath, 1892.
Resolved, That, while we endorse
the administration Of President Har-
rison for it's able foreign policy, and
! general wise administration of otfairs,
we do at the same time most vigOr-
ously denounce his UNMARRIED attitude
of hostility to the cause of silver, and
therefore to the interest and general
welfare of Nevada, and all laboring
men throughout the United States.
RESOLVED, That we fully endorse
the energetic work of our Senators
and Representatives on behalf of the
free and unlimited coinage Of silver
and appreciate the services OF Frarcis

The Rush for Western Lands.

The opening of the SissetOn Reserya-
ton in Minnesota to public occupation
Saturday was accompanied by scenes
such as were described when the Okla
homa territory was similarly opened by
the government to homesteaders. The
reservation is triangular piece OF open
land, lakes and woods in the northwest
corner of Minnesota. 1t has speedily
become the habitatIon of considerable
population, 5000 Of whom gathered at
one town on the border and swept
across the line at noon with over
five hundred teams under whip and
great number of saddler horses I'M
der spur. The conservative estimate of
male settlers who went on the reservation
is placed at $500, which IN the ordinary
ratio of families would place the popula-
tion at 10000 to $1,000. Allowance must
be made, however, for the men who file
claims for speculation who have no fam
lilies, and the lower figures are probably
more correct.
The Cheyenne and Arapahoe reserva-
ton, ia the Indian Territory, containing
three and a half million acres of land,
was thrown open TO settlement Tuesday
at noon. As the signal was Numbered by
cannon and repeated by calbines, 23,OOO
men on horseback, in wagons and on foot
rushed in to claim hOmesteads No trOube
was reported. The land is mostly the
ordinary prairie, covered with high grass
! flowing with brackish streams bitter with
alkali.
