The Pioche weekly record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1877-1900, 1894-11-01

Of that patty, of Senate Joint Resolution No. s,
by which our Senators and Representative in Con.
gress were urgently requested to do all in their
power to promote and secure the passage of an
Act of Congress for the adjustment or refunding
OF the Indebtedness OF the southe Pacific Rail.
road, thus emphatically endorsing the principles
OF ne Reilly bill now pending in Congress and
going TO q greater length in subserviency to that
company than any party in the State of Nevada
had ever gone before. And we cordially endorse
the action OF those Republican Senators who voted
against that resolution, and the course of the Re-
publican Governor who refused to give it his
sanction
Upon the maturing of the debts of the Pacific
Railroad Companies to the United States Govern
me Mt, we are in favor of the Government speedily
enforcing its demand in the best and most advan-
tageous way.
EIaHTH-We are most heartily in favor of the
construction OF competing line of railroad across
the 81 ate of Nevada, and urge the Legislature of
the State to give proper encouragement to any
parties who will undertake the construction of
such road.
NMTH-we Indignantly condemn the action Of
the self styled Silver party of Nevada, repre-
sented in the Sixteenth session of the Legislature
for passing propose Constitutional amendment
authorizing lottery. We edeclare the Republican
party Of Nevada to be unalternably opposed to
any lottery whatever and especially the proposed
one, which would shs nelessly make the State of
Nevada stock-holdeI therein, and every county
| in the State sharer of Its booty. We urgently
| recommend that every Republican County Con-
vention in the State pledge its Legislative nomi-
nees to vote against the pending proposed lottery
amendment to the Nevada Constitution.
TENTH-We invite the especial attention of the
| people to the splendid Republican administration
| of our State Government for the last four years,
| and if successful we pledge N maintenance of the
| same high standard during the four years to come.
ELEvENTH We are earnestly in favor of reclaim
ing the arid lands of Nevada in every practicable
way, and believe that 1t is the duty OF the United
States Government to aid in the work.
TwELFTH-In view of the fact large numbers OF
mining claims are patented and then virtually
abandoned and left unworket for years, thus ex-
Guiding from location and development large
tracts Of mineral land, we believe that the laws
under which such claims are patented should be
20 revised as to prevent the abuses referred to-
THIRTEEsTH- ADMIT the honest pui pose OF
the mass of our fellow citizens who have raised
the Silver and Populist standards in this State
but we conscientiously believe that they are
mistaken and misguided in the course which they
are now pursuing. Great battles are fought and
won by great armies and in all the history of the
world the stragglers from those armies never YET
struck decisive blow for any cause. The great
armies in American politics are the Republican
and Democratic parties.
They comprise about - 100000 voters. Will,
all the others combined aggregate barely one
tenth of that number, and even these are organic
ed on various issues Hence, it should be apparen
to every man who stops to think, that the mail
battles for silver should be fought within th
lines of the two great parties and that indepen
of results. Considering the advanced position i
has recently taken, we believe that the Republi
can party gives the best assurance of favorable
silver Legislation and that the stronger We cal
make the silver sentiment with that party, tn
nearer 1t will come to responding to our demand
We therefore appeal to the citizens of our suffer
ing commonwealth not to fritter away thei
I strength by maklng war upon the only power tina
is capable of doing anything for them. and is will
ing to do it, but to Join US under the banher c
"Protection and Bimetallsm'' In an honest an
determined effort to reach the end SO ardently dt
