After a housekeeper fully realizes

hold she is never willing to be without
a supply of it, says the Home Queen.
It gives quick relief to burns; it is an
excellent application for corns; it is
good for rheumatism and sore Threats.
Then it is sure preventive against
moths; by just dropping trife in the
drawers, chests and eupboards, it will
render the garments secure from in
jury during the summer. 1t will keep
ants and bugs from the closets and
store rooms by putting few drops in
the corners and upon the shelves; it is
sure destruction to bedbugs, and il
will effectually drive them from their
haunts if thoroughly applied to all the
joints of the bedsteads, and Injuries
neither furniture nor clothing. A
spoonful of it added to pail of warm
water is excellent for cleaning paint.

What Is said OF the Nominations.

The Carson Appeal has interviewed
some of the leading politicians of the
western part of the State, and here is
what they have to say on the party
NOMINEES
Gov. Colcord-I do not think it was
the best nominative we could have pre-
sented to us and would much prefer
to see Blaine in the lead for the reason
that he could more readily control the
silver State at the polls. However
faulty we may deem it I am sure Ne
vada will make the best of the condi-
tons now surrounding us and try to
elect him.
II. M. Yerington-All this talk
about free coinage and third party
business is nothing but buncombe. l
have no fear of these revolts and when
the voters go to the ballot box net Fall
they will vote for the Republican NOM
inees. You need have no fears about
the result. Harrison's all right.
o. H. Grey simply consider it
crow straight for Nevada and would
have much preferred another course
in the shape of Blaine. If o. II.
swallows that crow next Fall the last
of his Nevada chicken pie will end with
his present term. ED. News.
Gen. R. M. Clarke-Harrison is
without doubt the brainiest man in the
Republican party to-day, but his record
on the silver question will down him
in Nevada. He can't begin to carry
any portion of it.
Ex-Congressman WOODBURY. - Ben
jamin Harrison's nomination is wet
blanket on the voters of the silver pro-
ducing States.
Senator Haines, of Douglas = 1t
falls dead. l was in Reno when the
news came. People looked at each
other dazed. Some one proposed to
hurrah for Harrison, but there was no
response. He can't carry Nevada.
The silver plank is meant to humbug
the West, but it won't. The work
was too clumsy. No one but luna
tic would be fooled by it. If they put
up silver man at the Omaha Conven-
ton I'm for him and the electoral vote
of the State ought to go for him. We
must show these fellows we mean bust
ness or we'll never get them to think
so. Nevada will vote against Har-
rison, sure.
The White Pine news. [volume] (Treasure City, Nev.) 1868-1906, 1892-06-18
How They Received IL.

At Ely the news of the nomination
of Harrison was received with cold
indifference. Not at cheer went up,
not flag waved.
At Hamilton, it is reported that on
receipt of the news the President was
hung in effigy. We hope, however,
this report is not true, as we can APP
prove of no such proceeding.
Eureka-The nomination of Har-
rison was a cold wave here to every
body. No one could be found in Eu-
reka to cheer for him. The news was
received with groans.
Winnemucca-A heavy frost cover
ed Winnemucca when the news of the
nomination reached here and general
disgust was everywhere manifested.
The silver men will hold regular pri-
maries and send delegate to the State
Silver Convention.
Observation-Disclosures nomination
sickened the town and it was proposed
to half mast the flag.
Dayton-No enthusiasm here over
the nomination. The Silver plank is
regarded as straddle.
Austin-Harrson will not get ten
votes in this section on election day.
Elko-Many old Republicans here
have declared against Harrison.
Reno-Harrison' nomination dis
gusts everybody and was received in
silence.

The Reno Convention.

The Humboldt county Silver Lea

people to be represented there. We

to take the liberty of appointing dele
gates from other precincts. They
should come direct from the primary
source of authority-the people. But
why all this hurry2 There is plenty
of time for the Silver party of Ne
vada to build from the foundation up
before Fall. Then we can exactly tell
which party suits us best, and if none,
we can go it alone.

A Painful Accidon {.

A very painful accident occurred to
Gus Benson at the keystone mill Fri
day forenoon by which he loses his
left eye. While tagging pulley, the
engine going at high speed, a spike
or some part of the pulley few off and
struck him above the left eye penetrat-
ing and splitting it in the center, de-
stroying it without hope of restoration.
He went out by private conveyance yes
terday to Cherry Greek en- route for
Salt Lake to consult an occulist So as
to save the other eye.
The Keytone boys have worked
hard all winter and spring and are
just ready to start up their teaching
plant. They have made hosts of
friends in this section, and our peo-
pie sincerely regret the misfortune that
has befallen one of their number-Mr.
Benson.

The company is divided into two
parts, and sit facing each other at OPP
posite ends of the room. captain is
chosen from each side, who sits little
in front of the others, but near enough
to the mem bers of his group to enable
them to whisper to him or speak in
low enough tone to be heard on
one side of the room only. One OF the
captains begins to count slowly from
one to ten. While he is doing this the
other captain, who is the mouth-piece
of his party, gives some geographical
name beginning with A. Anything is
allowable that would come under the
head Of geography-contine mount
ain, city, river, etc, however obscure,
provided it be known to be a veritable
place. As soon as tho captain has given
the name he takes up the count, and
the other side must name the place;
and so one back and forth, until one Of
the captains reaches ten without hav-
ing been interrupted by the other side.

In Senator Carlisle's speech clos
ing the debate on the Democratic
side of the senate when the McKin
ley bill was on its passage "a speech
of which the Democratic Congress
ional Committee circulated 10000
900 copies in the congressional cam
paign of ls90) he boldly declared
that the tariff, if it became a law,
would raise the average rate of GUS
toms collections on dutiable goods to
90 per cent. at the very lowest, and
on tree dutiablo taken together to at
least 45 per cent. That charge, re-
peated ten million times to the
people on the eve of an election by
so respectable a person as Senator
Carlisle of Kentucky, must have
influenced many voters. But it was
so reckless, false and foolish that one
can hardly say whether it is more
charitable to the Senator to call it
williul falsehood or sheer idiocy.
The Government year ended on Jure
30, when the Mckinley bill had been
in operation only nine months and
sugar had been free only four, and
yet, even with those conditions, the
average rate on dutable imports for
the full year was 1920 per cent,
not 60, as Carlisle charged it would
be, and the rate on both free and
dutiable was not 45 per cent, but
1926, the lowest rate that has been
paid since the war.

"No election district or voting pre-
cinct under the provisions of this act

When any election district or voting
