The Walker Lake (Nsv..) Bulletin says
our country Is getting exceedingly mate
rial. We are not sure that a big war
would not do us all good. Men are en-
crossed in trade. engrossed in money
making; men who are piIiug up pyra-
mids Of gold, and again. those who are
working and only making a living at best,
cannot kindls In their hearts any partic.
ular emotion over the prospect Of . Pres
idential election. We are not sure that
a war Is not needed to get rid Of what is
selfish in the hearts Of men and to kindle
that which is exalted and which leads mp
to acts Of elf-abnegation and to cour-
age, and which compels men TO think Of
their country, and TO kindle In their
hearts the thoughts which make them
their country's defenders.

THE SITUATION.

The people of the country are ripe for
a revolt. Both of the old parties have
been feeding the laboring classes for the
past fifteen years with promises and
taffy until rs per cent of the voters are
Disguised and ready for a change. A
new party will in time perhaps become
as corrupt as either Of the present par
ties are. but for a while it would be
much purer, and during that time o
great many beneficial laws could be
passed.
In travelling one will meet with very
few strongly partisan Democrats or Re-
publicans. the great majority being ex-
tremely lukewarm and ready to follow
any new party that gives promise Of q
change Of policy. Four out of five
Democrats will say Cleveland cannot
carry New York, and eight of ten Re.
publicans will tell you that Harrison
will be defeated out lof sight in New
York. and so II goes.
Inc mar this year that can name the
winner in any five States will be . good
n Wall street will take no part IN
less they think Weaver will ley both Of
their pets out. then Of course they will
get down to work.
Weaver and Field will carry Nebraska,
Kansas, South Dakota, Georgia. South
Carolina and Alabama, and . strong like.
iihood of Texas, Oregon. Iowa, Mime
sofa and Virginia. Nevada, Colorado,
Montana and Idaho will 60 for silver
electors, who will undoubtedly cast their
votes for the third party ticket, so the
election this year will cause Harrison
aud Cleveland about as many sleepless
nights as Weaver. Silver State.

The Arizona Mining Report Of Phenix
says: Arizona is far behind all other
States and Territories In free silver
clubs. Nevada and Colorado are far
ahead Of US. 1t is time we awakened to
thefact that our future prosperity depends
on the stand we now take in the great
silver agitation; we cannot afford to be
behind our sister States and Territories.
Let each and every camp in the whole
Territory organize q silver club. even If
you can only get a half dozen mem
bers. Let the word 60 out to the whole
world that Arizona is solid for silver.
Help to encourage Nevada, Colorado
and other sister States in their great
fight for the free coinage Of silver, which
is synonymous with the prosperity Of the
whole people.

tragedy "a savage butchery." Being
asked his opinion on the situation, he
said: 81 am not now prepared to give q
full expression Of my views. but from
what I can learn from the press reports
there can be but one side to the case.
The strikers are certainly on the right
side and their position will be supported
to the end, that is, until they obtain

our government is used to defraud one Of
the great productive industries of this

been in the habit Of purchasing silver
bullion at the market price. selling ID to

the case OF the Austrian brokers, were
redeemed in gold, and the latter trans

SAN FRANCISCO, July y, w.
Ed. SENTINEL: I am Q little SLOW IL
giving voice to my regret ct the death o.
Mr.. Cassidy. but / an sure you will mol
regard my sorrow as less substantial or
that account. He was among the frs'
men l met when l came TO Nevada, q
the close OF 1870. Since that time l have
been familiar with the affairs and the peo'
pie Of the State, and, so far as my knowl
edge extends, the death Of no citizen oil
Nevada has called forth more general OF
deeper sorrow than that Of our friend,
His loss is all the more keenly felt, al
this time, when q man OF his capabilities
and temperament could be OF supreme
service in promoting the silver cause in
which the people OF Nevada are so vitality
interested. / shall not sketch his life OF
compose his eulogy. Others more compe-
tent than I have already done this. They
have spoken handsomely and well OF him
but his biography had been written in
advance upon the hearts Of his friends.
He had his faults ss the rest OF us; but
they did not cancel his merits: they only
made him human. He wore his heart on
his sleeve, and the mistakes he made
were Of the head. Gone and lost to Us,
now, . fair and kindly appreciation
makes his errors small and his virtues
large. My personal relations with him
began when i made your acquaintance in
the Office OF the SENTINEL in the Fall Of
1882, when l was employed by him to
take his place during his term in Con.
gress TO which he had just been elected.
Coming back to bis constituency two
years later, he made another gallant fight
for the SURFACES Of the people whom he
had served with extraordinary zeal and
efficiency. He was defeated, but I re-
member well with what qualification and
oouyancy he hailed the election Of the
head Of the ticket, the first President Of
thu party for twenty-five years. 1 have
met him, now and then, ever since, and
whether he was up or down, I have found
hin always the ssme-friendly, cheerful,
independent and self-contained. Full Of
resources, his elasticity was such that he
could throw off trouble and regain his
feet, after q fall, as quickly as any one ]
ever knew. His talent for newspaper
work was exceptional. He was full OF
vigorous, effective journalism. 1 do not
believe that, for clear, strong ringing
English, there is 8 newspaper man on the
Coast whose style is superior to his. He
had not literary culture, but he had an
which, Bacon says, is outside
Of books and above them. He was o
natural editor. We greatly need, In San
a thorough, faithful newspaper
exponent of Democratic doctrine; and
had cherished the hope that he might
yet come down here and devote his re-
markable energy, boldness and ingenuity
TO the establishment Of such q party
paper. But be is irrevocably gone Th'
State he loved and whose dignity snd in
serests he was ever ready and capable t.
defend and maintain will preserve hi
memory. Sincerely yours.

WE are not much given to prophe-
sying, but our observation justifies
us in laying dawn this rule to pre-
dict the future of our boys: When
a boy brings his books home from
school every evening and studies
the lessons for the following day,
working out all the hard problems
in arithmetic, aud parsing the more
difficult sentences, in grammar in
stead of loafing in the streets and in
the stores, you can safely predict a
useful, honorable life. This rule
seldom fails. 1t is almost infallible.
"As the twig is bent the tree is in
clined," loses none of its force be-
cause uttered a long time ago.
Truth never changes. Parents,
make the application at home. If
your boys prefer running on the
streets to study, make an earnest ef-
fort to get them interested in their
studies. Help them. Encourage
them. 1t will be of more value to
them than any other inheritance
you may leave them.
