such nomination was brought about, was
as good as election, as no matter how in
capable or unpopular the nominee may
have been it was impossible to defeat bim
at the polls; but by the new regime each
party will nominate two candidates for
assessor, and one will get left,
and If either party nomiaates a
man who is known to be totally unfit
for the Office it is easy for the other side
to defeat him. The new departure will
tend to make each party mora careful in
its selection of candidates for the position,
and will surely benefit the taxpayers, who
are to be affected by the change. The next
board of assessors will be expected to at
tend to, in thorough manner, the reas-
sessment of the property in the borough,
and it is hoped that both parties will make
1t point to present capable and efficient
candidates at the next town election, and
that the new board of three assessors will
be sure to right great wrong.

A Pleasant Renaissance.


The announcement that Thatcher's
"Tuxsdo" was to open here Monday night
with Richard Jose as It's tenor, recalls to
mind the time, about eight years ago, when
"Dick," whose home was in Reno, Nevada,
was slender, rosy-cheeked boy about six
teen years old. Els merry ways and ex-
quisite voice made him the pet of the town
and the idol of all the school girls. Dicks
voice may be more powerful, more highly
cultivated nowadays, but it had then s.
boyish, thrilling sweetness, which seemed
to electrify his audience. Flora Finly-
son, now with the "Bostonians," was then
living in Reno, and she and Dick divided
the honors about equally.
Frances E. Willard had just passed
through the western towns, and as a result
of her efforts W. G. T. U. had been
formed in Reno, which was on the eve of
giving it's first entertainment.
"Dick" was on the program for a solo,
and duet with Flora Finlayson. A crowd
of laughing, brighteyed girls had taken
possession Of one entire bench, and while
they made it appear that every inch of
ono of their party who had been delayed.
Finally, when all the seats were taken,
stsnding room also being pretty well COW
cred, an old man pushed his way through
the crowd, glancing hesitatingly from eide
to side. Such trsmpish, ragged old man,
with long, struggling gray hair and beard,
and such creased and wrlnkled face, as
If Time had traced the lines and winters
storms and summers sun beaten and
burned them in. A look of relief stole
over his face as his eyes rested on the girls
bench, and giving them a beaming father
~ emile, he crowded in in spite of frowns
as he leaned back, with his old, rusty,
battered hat still on his head. He glanced
at tie girls from time to time with euch
smile of good fellowship and such frank
confidence In their sympathy when any
thing amusing was being enacted, that they
forgot their pouts and returned the smiles
with interest. His enjoy ment was 30 real,
his applause 80 hearty, and his loud "haw-
haw" so genuine that they laughed and
applauded in sympathy.
1t last came Dicks solo-Eom little love
song. As always, be was encored, the old
mans hands and the eow-hiae boots max
ing thunder of applause ell his own.
Dick responded by singing his favorite,
"A Flower from Mothers Grave" Very
swsetly and tenderly he sang it, perhaps
the more SO because it may have brought
memories of grave in old England, where
his mother was lying at rest. Someone
glanoing at the old man saw the grizzled
head dropping lower and lower on his
brsass, while great tears were trickling
down his cheeks. Slowly his weather.
beaten hand crept mp to the old hat and
took it off, in reverence to the memory OF
dead mother. The old man had no sp-
plause for that song.
There were refreshments served after
the entertainment, and never was an old
tramp so surfeited with smiles and sweets
of every kind, pressed on him by fair
young hands gratuitously CO this weather.

Cured since week ago today, the
Legislative day of Tuesday, October
Eth, still continues.
Stewart (Rep.) J, of Nevada, gave
notice Of the amendment which ne
intended to offer to the repeal bill,
proposing conference to be held
at Washington within nine months
between delegates from the United
States, Mexico, Central and South
America, Hayti and San Domingo,
for the adoption of common silver
coin, to be legal tender in all CON-
mercial transactions between the

between the senate and the house.
The consideration Of the bill TO
repeal the purchasing clause of the
Sherman act of 1890 was then re-
sumed and Jones (Rep of Nevada,
entered upon the fourth iustallment
of mis- argument in opposition to the
bill. Jones made al elaboration OF
the argument he was advancing
when the senate took recess Satur-
day evening, that the standard of
INC country coulo ID neither gold,
silver nor any material thing, but
that whatever the standard might

Those who were expecting to see
Democratic compromise BIN IN
,roduced in the senate this morning
and speedily passed through thai
body were disappointed. The opin-
on now is very general among thc
senators who will discuss the ques
ton at all that the compromise bill
over which the senators were -
Aapguine Saturday will never be
introduced in the senate. The
reason for this change in the situa
ton is found in the fact that the
compromises have been unable to
get sufficient pledges to guarantee
the passage of the bill in case il
should be introduced, and they ssid
from the beginning they would
bring in no bill unless it's psssa {
could be assured. Statements ditfoi
as to the exact number of Demo
cratic senators who signed the
amendment, but the best authority
otainable places the number al 39
or 40, less than majority. There
does not seem to be much chance
of securing quorum. 1t can b
definitely stated that members OF
the steering committee have made
individual appeals to a great many
Republican senators, but have beer
refused alike by the repeal anl
silver senators.
