GRANADA. Nicaragua, May 29.-The
United States cruiser Atlanta arrived at
Greytown Thursday. Lewis Baker, the
United States minister, telegraphed her
commander that it was necessary to
land marines from the cruiser. The $50
armed men from Matgatpa Saturday
joined the revolutionary forces. The
revolutionists are now claiming bellig-
erent rights and demanding recognition
by foreign governments. Preparations
are now being made by the insurgents
to march upon Managur and drive Sa-
caza's government from the Nicaraguan
capital. Forces were sent against the
government troops stationed in the
plaza at Tippa Tipa. They were 500
strong, but retreated toward Managua
before the insurgent forces arrived.

A Day OF Excitement on the Chicago
Board Of Trade.
CHICAGO. May 27.--The provision pit
on the board of trade was scene OF
wild excitement during the session. 1t
was caused by a break ia pork, the price
going from $50 So per barrel for Septem-
Der at the opening to sa3. The selling
of about 1000 barrels at that figure
stopped the runaway market. and in
fifteen minutes the price was i; ick to
$22.30. The close was at S.235, or 81. SO
up from the opening. This ren1ar,Sab BILE
action is but a flash in the deal
which has quietly tied up al: the
stuff in sight and will release Nc :; ing
except at great punishment u the
shorts. The manipulation, VIII; h is
credited to the Cudahys, Charlie VIZ ght,
and some say n. X. Fairbaas, has
been the scarecrow in the p. vision
trade for weeks.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

The supreme court of Michigan
on October "a declared the act per-
mitting women to vote at municipal
elections unconstitutional. This is
another instance demonstrating the
statement made in the ADVOCATE q
short time ago that this is not a gov
ernment of, for and by the people.
The people have absolutely nothing
to do with the government. They
cannot enact law that is worth the
paper it is written on. They can
elect legislatures it is true; and those
legislatures can play that they are
making laws; but if the laws they
make do not happen to suit the Judge
upon the bench he brushes them aside
like a cobweb. The people are abso-
lutely pOwerless to protect their own
interests by Legislation. We are liv-
ing under a Judicial Oligarchy of the
most imperious character, and it Is
useless to attempt to disguise this
fact. The most important legislation
to be aimed at in the near future is
the total abolition of the courts and
the establishment Of system of ar
bitration in their stead.

ism, Fourierism, communism, nihilism or

has any knowledge Of the subjects

snce, prejudice and malice. We charge
further that they are equally ignorant
on the subjects Of finance, land and
transportation, as announced in the
Omaha platform. They don't know the
meaning Of the word money" or the
word "value," or the word 'intrinsic. "

their course last winter cannot be defended.

about discussions when there is no

Cleveland works in congress, the bankers
will be expected to work, not in New York
only, but throughout the country, doing
their utmost TO pinch business everywhere
in the expectation Of causing money crisis
that will affect congress powerfully from
every question. There is an expliCitness in
these declarations, and boldness in max
ing them that would be astounding were
not the country too familiar with Mr..
Cleveland and his methods to be astonished
BY anything from him.
In the Cincinnati Times-Stsr Of March
II, 1893, President Cleveland is quoted
as follows:
This was what President Cleveland said
in conversation with one Of his friends, and
while discussing his future policies.
~ fear shall not be able to command
action from congress. never saw such
obstinacy as exists among members of CON
gress on the silver question. Il is useless to
appeal to them now. We shall have to sim
ply bide them, Il is my opinion that we
shall experience close times in money mat
ters during the year. and when congress
gets together next December, it will be
mora reasonable, more traOtsble. It some.
times takes hard times to bring people to
realize their condition. When the squeeze
comes, the men who stand in the way of
legislation intended to preserve public con-
fidencs will lose sight of local theories and
sentiment, and will be willing to join the
majority and general sentiment of those
who know best what should be DONE"
There is the whole scheme foreshad-
owed. The "obstinRcy" Of the peoples
representations who simply were deter
mined to remain true to the trust OF
their constituents was known, for they
had already been lsbored with, and here
we have outlined the means proposed by
an alleged democratic president to break
down their opposition, their truth to
those whom they represented, into social
obedience to his will. Was there ever
anything mors deliberate and cruel?
His methods are those of tyrsnt and
a coward. But when the opportunity
again arrives, il enough Of the American
people do not make sure to utterly des-
troy all parties with which the breeding
OF such monsters is possible, then they
will prove themselves no longer worthy
Of their lineage nor their liberties.

The inconsistency of this talk about
political leaders disgracing their state
is sickening. Senator Mitchell of
Wisconsin does not dare return to
his home because the sheriff stands
ready to pounce upon him with
papers which would bring HIM to
account in court for his compliclty in
the Milwaukee bank frauds. Just
think of man who is at the head Of
his party being outlawed from the
state he represents in the United
States senstel! What if PETER or
Simpson or Judge Davis were in such
a predicament? How the stand

The Revised Encyclopedia Britannica
which we offer to our readers at the I'M
heard Of rate Of only 10 cents day for
ninety days, is unique and splendid
work. 1t has no peer among Eucyclo-
pediss. There is but one Bible for
Christians; one Talmud for Hebrews; one
Koran for MohsmmedRns, and there is
but one Encyclopedia Britannica for the
peo de who speak and read the English
language, and who turn to it as to the
one comprehensive, sll-incluslve and au-
lucrative epitome OF human knowledge
in all it's branches.
To possess this mstchless work is to
own whole library and have access to
information on every anbject within the
domain of human experience, study or
inquiry. The extraordinary terms an

the revised edition Of the Encyclopedia
Britannica will be supplied to our read
ers, are only for such readers.
Remember this fact.

now able to offer a later, better and
more complete edition, in twenty vol
umes, compromising q total Of 1000
pages, with ninety-six colored maps, at
almost q nominal price.

A Panic Made to Order,

N--N
startling significance. It shows that
Mr.. Cleveland 10 the facile instrument
Of the most dangerous conspiracy to
plunder the people which the world has
ever seen. When this matter is fully
comprehended the stand taken in the
senate by few strong men from the
vest and south to prevent its consum-
matior will be seen to be- nothing less
than heroic.
The conspiracy began in 1873 to estsb-
lish the gold standard It met with
partial overthrow in the Bland act Of
1878. But since that time every Bd-
ministrstion has been obedient to the
behests Of the conspirB ysnd has evaded
or violated the law in the operations OF
the treasury department to serve its
purposes. The preservation OF the ns-
tional bank system, which must expire
in the near future by reason Of payment
of the bonds on which the system was
based, made prompt action imperative,
as these, being the only banks Of issue,
represented the original cause Of quar-
rel as old as the government-whether
the government itself should exercise
its constitutional perogRtive and issue
all forms Of legal tender money to the
peopl, or permit its perogative to lapse
and delegate It's power to banks OF issue.
When Mr.. Cleveland went from Wash
ington to Wall street at the expiration
Of his first term he knew unquestion-
ably that he was going among friends.
Both his and Mr.. Harrison's nomina-
tions for the presidency were dictated
from Wall street, which subsidized
metropolitan papers Of either party
made to appear popular demand and
which subsequent republican and demo
cratic conventions met merely to rstiHy.
This same prostituted press is now urg-
ing on repeal OF the Sherman law with
one accord, showing that service to party
and to country has subsidized into service
to an influence more powerful, per-
suRsivs and imperative. This is the
concentrated money power of the world,
which is the great modern political lion
tanner, in whose presence the democratic
leopard and the republican lion meekly
lie down together and find no cause OF
quarrel, for their common master has
them both in proper training.
Now that a conspiracy to precipitate a
panic upon the country under which to
force q repeal Of the SILVER purchasing
clause OF the Sherman act was deliber-
stsly planned, it's details arranged, and
that the administration was party to
that conspiracy in all its purposes, there
10 now no doubt and can be no serious
controversy. Conscious of nearly Rbso-
lutte power, holding the president in
their hands, disguise was thrown away,
their purposes in all their Asgrsnt de-
tails were boldly proclaimed both by the
New York press and by the president.
Nothing 80 utterly inhumaD, so shame
less, 30 arrogant and so reasonable in
fact, has been seen in high places in all
our history. Never has the highest

QUEER BUSINESS.

On Monday the committee on
State Prison and insane Asylum pre-
scented a lengthy report TO the Assem-
bly, in which they charged that Frank
Bell while Warden OF the Prison in
1880 sold cut stone valued mt $l54.2O
TO =. L. Longabaugh, OF Reno, aud
that the sum of S29.25 WIS paid by
Longabaugh and accounted for by
the Warden, and the balance, S124.9o,
was carried from page 394 Of the pris-
on ledger to pege 397 on the first Of
January, 1887, but that before the
18th of February, 1887, the date OF
the Warden's retirement from Office,
the account was erased by running
red lines through the same and that
no part Of said balance has ever been
paid to the State. It also charged
that on or about the 18th day of
january, 1856, one Frank Craven, en-
gagged in road building for the coun-
ty Of Ormsby, paid to Warden Bell
SIT for waste rock hauled from the
State Prison and that no record of
said transaction was found upon the
books of the prison. This charge was
bucked up by the affidavits of Frank
Craven and his son, James Leroy Cra-
ven.
This report, smirching the charac-
ter of Mr.. Bell and branding him as
a thief, was read in the Assembly and
published in the papers in the West
ern part Of the State before an oppor-
tunity was given him to defend him
self from the charges mado by the
committee.
On Tuesday the Assembly investi-
gated tho charges made against MIR.
Bell and resolutions were unanimous
ly adopted generating him and ex-
punsing the charges from the report
1T the committee.
This attempt of few maliciously
inclined individuals at the State
Capital to besmirch tho character of
Mr.. Bell merits and should receive
the condemnation OF every fair-mind-
ed man in the State OF Nevada.

The front of the hall was artistically

decorated with flowers, the altar and
officers stations being masses of brilliant

arrangement and in the tempting array

Nearly or quite hundred visitors re-

allv in short ana neat address, and in
troduced the Grand Officers of the Grand

and a season of sociability followed, till

GOOD things of the table, Grand Chief
Companion Mrs. Carah and others re-

ance dated back for years, the tone of in
