ting q Standard Bearer.
According to late dispatch the
friends of Senator Cameron say that
Mr.. Cameron will not consent to have
his name used as presidential possi-
bilitv on the new silver party that
Senator Jones, Stewart and Pettigrew
4are endeayoring to organize, according
TO dispatch published in the Gazette.
Senator Cameron is an ardent free
coinage man, but is now and always
has been a staunch Republican. Many
of the leading Republican silver men
arc looking t Senator Cam ron to
Lead the Republican hosts in '96, and
ii the silver men would unite and make
IAN earnest fight for candidate like
him for the Presidency on the Repub-
lican ticket they would be doing the
silver cause more good than by. organ
iixinc a Thousand independent political
nart;es. It is a little strange. we think
fl,at Senator Stewart should be now
talking of new party on the ISSUES Of
protection and free coinage.
Senator Stewart for the past two
wears has been writing to the people of
Nevada telling them that protection
.4as IL "sham," and repe. teddy refer
luz to tie .-shain battle" "over the tiar-
Ma. he saw tit to style 1t. Now Lhe
Senator see,us to have conc to the
conclusion ti,At protection is really
INV Mportallt, and that it is to be givoa
Askace along side OF silver ;4s a great is
sHa before the people.
If the press despa ch is true Senators
jones and Stewart have about aban-
tloned the idea of securing the free
coinage of silver by means of the sill
yer party in Nevada and have come
TO the cs Inclusion it will be necessary
to consider the rest OF the nation as a
factor in the political affairs of this
country.
The Silver party of Nevada, from
stump and press, has argued that there
was, nothing in the tnriif; that it was
a esham battle" used in the East to
blind the peoples eyes 70 the true inn
portance Of the Silver question. That
talk had It's effect on the people of
Nevada, and for two years they have
blindly followed the teachings of de-
signing politicians and shewd Demo
Gratis, Who by means of the Silver ar
,tv have about gotten possession of all
IEanches of government in this State.
Tlhe election demonstrated that protec-
ton is still great issue before the
American people, and it has been for
over century in the past, and likely
will be in the next century to come
Eastern people are not fools; neither
do the people Of Nevada possess such
vast amount more of intelligence
than the people in 9th r sections of the
country. and as the Republicans in
this State always declared, protection
is now acknowledged, even by Senator
Stewart, to be an issue that must of
necessity remain prominent before the
people.
The dispatch says: ''The revolts of
the recent election have given the
leaders renewed confidence, as they
now believe they will be able to absorb
the remnants of tie Populists and Sc
cure through ths protective plank, ad,
hesion of the labor vote of the East "
What Absorb the Populist party on
protective policy, when the Popullsts
even excel the Democrats in their ef-
forts to secure free trade? The his
tory of the Populist party in Congress
is history of an. aggressive fight
against the Republican idea of protec-
ton. But Senator Stewart can Doubt
MSS arrange matters and scoop the
p Tbpulists into his new scheme, We
#oi1der what the next move will be,
but will not be greatly surprised at
