The Omaha platform demands the
free coinage of silver at the present
ratio of 16 to 1. The Minneapolis
and Chicago platforms are at best mis-
cradle straddles on this question SO
important to the people of Nevada.
Which of these platforms should re-
ceive our support? General Weaver,
who stands on the Omaha platform,
favors our interests, while Harrison
and Cleveland are against lis. Which
candidate will the people of Nevada
support at the ballot box in Novem-
Der? If we vote as we talk, General
Weaver will receive the unanimous
vote of the State. -Elko Ind.

Democratic Committeeman Resign.
The following from men who have
for years been identified with the
Democratic party, explains itself and
proves that those who place the in
terest of the State before party will
support the silver ticket:
CANDELAR1A, July 16, 1892:
To the Members of the Democratic
Countral Committee of Esmeralda
County: Conference.-The, the under
signed Chairman and Secretary of
your Committee, hereby tender to the
Democrats of Esmeralda county (f
there be any, after the action of the
Democratic Congress on the Silver
bill, bill of vital Importance and of
paramount issue to the people of Ne
vada, our designations, as we have
decided to throw party aside and to
henccforth work for the whole people
of the State; and, having become
members of the third or Silver party,
we will henceforth join hands with our
old enemy and vote and work for any
candidate from Residential Electors to
Constable who has the interest of our
State "first, ''party afterward. E"
1t is not'without struggle that we
part with our old love, but to save our
State from disruption and despoilation
we must say goodbye. Hoping that
the Democrats of the county will as
sert their independence and fail to
call convention to nominate ticket,
but will show solid front to the enemy
by having only one ticket in the field,
national, State and county, to wit
The Silver ticket with Weaver and
Field as the standard bearers of the
people of our State. We remain re-
spectfully yours,

P. G. Weber, who was one of the
Nevada delegates to Chicago thinks
the above does the delegation inius-
tice. Their object in voting for Cor
man was to divide Mr.. Cleveland's
strength and prevent his nomination
on the first ballot, in hopes of getting
Senator Hill nominated subsequently.
Besides, at that time German had not
been considered an anti-silver man.

acceptable to the Silver party, provi-
ded he comes out independent and
foreswears all allegiance to the Ma
tional ticket. Unless he does this,
and the Republican party of Nevada
abstain from putting an electoral
ticket in the field, the Silver party is
bound to nominate an entire State

either or both parties, and trium-
phantly elect its ticket on the 9th of

following:

or moro easy words.
In beginning writing let half the class practice
on the blackboaTds and the other If on states.
After the first five months let pupils occasion
ally take lesson with zen and paper.
In spelling use both the oisl and written
method.
Teach every child as soon as possible TO write

your pupils to lake home their first readers and
read aloud few lessons 10 taeT fathers and

The teacher must require the child TO speak as
much as possible.
Children must be trained 10 make correctly
the figures from TO 10 on blsckboards and
states. See that they make them in the right

Mr.. BeansioD, but il is not right, and the
