The following resolution was unanimous

Resolved that this committee direct the

SOME of the Eastern papers s

SOME of the Eastern papers sneer
at the nomination of Don Cameron
ior President, but they do it with
rueful faces because they cannot say
that Mr.. Cameron is a silver mine
owner, or that he is a an adventurer
who is playing for advantages. They
have to admit that he is a shrewd,
level-headed man of affairs, and not
one of them believes he has any in
terest directly or remotely in silver
mines. Hence the naming of him as
candidate for President worries
those papers because they see intu-
itively that it will not do to fight him
with the weapons which they have
found SO effective in charging that
all men in favor of silver have no
higher object than to get better
price for the silver which they dig
from the mines. Old Don is not a
silver miner, but he is a very level
headed man. His ear is close down
to the ground and he knows what
the people mean, and he, among his
Eastern friends, stands out soil
tary example of that courage which
is sufficient to enable him to declare
his convictions, no matter who or
what stands in the way

Official Paper of Esmeralda County.
WEDNESDAY ......,...A AUGUST s, 1894

We congratulate the Republican
party of Michigan on having broken
away finally from that absurd and
meaningless phrase. parity of val
ues, and on its fair, square, out-and-
out declaration in favor of silver as
a money metal. If there ever were
a misleading, fallacious and inexplc-
able phrase in connection with ex-
isting financial conditions, it is that
expression parity of values. There
never has existed an exact parity OF
value; at least since the science OF
money has been studied, nor is it in
any way necessary or useful that
such parity should exist, but it has
been shown conclusively that from
1857 to 1873 under bimetailic
system the commercial ratio of the
two metals was never lower than ] to
AL and never higher than | TO
1926, variation Of only about two
points, and this slight difference is
accounted for by the difference in
ratio fixed by different Governments
and by the cost of exchange.
The effect of free coinage or unlim-
ited demand for both metals for over
two hundred years was to fix their
practical parity at the ratio es-
tablished and to make them virtually
one metal, and it is return to that
wise and salutary policy which the
Republicans Of Michigan advocate.
They are not alone in this, for they
certainly have the support of Ohio
and California and there are many
States yet to hear from. As More
ton Frewen has recently said, the
slogan Of the Republican party in
America must be protection and BIZ
metallism, and with such o war-cry
he predicts success. S L. Chronicle.

A YEAR ago an extraordinary ses-
sion of Congress had been called and
the cry was that the reserve in the
Treasury of the United States had
been reduced to less than 500, 0O0,
600. When a few days later the SEES
sion met, the President informed
that body that the reserves had been
trenched upon to a dangerous limit,
and that the purchasing clause of the
Sherman law must at once be re-
pealed to stop the panic, to give the
people confidence and to permit the
business OF the country to resume its
normal conditions The law was re-
peale1 on the demand and command.
The good times did not come When
the Winter came on the Secretary OF
the Treasury sold $50, 900, 600 in
bonds, on which he received a pre-
MUM OF s8,000,000, which gave him
S58, 00e, 900 TO brace up the Treasury.
A year has Just gone by and there is
just about that S58, 100000 left as re-
serve. Without it there would not
have been cent A year ago there
was over $50, 900, 600 and it was con-
sidered a dangerous state Of affairs.
TO brace up that, S58, GOO, 900 was
added by borrowing, and the round
up Is that the whole 500, 900, 900 is
gone because there is only $59, 0OO,-
600 left now. That is the effect of
one years administration on the part
of a Democratic President, Secretary
of the Treasury and Congress, with
all the New York banks and New
York press to give advice. We won
der if the thought never steals
through the somewhat slow-moving
brain of President Cleveland that
maybe, after all, there has been a
mistake; that possibly it would be
better to make a fair investigation
to see if there is not something out
side of the gibberish about the Sher-
man law, and the clatter about the
tariff, which hurts. Rather, is it not
just possible that the present finan
cial system is fatally deficient in
some regards and ought to be over
hauled? We hope a tariff bill will be
passed this week just to show to the
men in authority that no patchwork
will suffice; that they have been doc
toring symptoms, and meanwhile
the disease has been pursuing its un-
interrupted course; that it is time
for some heroic treatment lest the
patient shall die.

A Lesson in Geography.

A bright Spectator on the Orient
al war suggests that Chinas land
across to Korea, in the event of ma.
val disaster, would not help her, as
the sea touches Korea on all sides
but one, and the victorious japanese
fleet would command the country.
Evidently this commentator thinks
Korea is sand-spit, and that the
Japanese naval artillery can range
clear across the country. Korea Is
a mountainous peninsula with a
length of about 500 miles and width
of from 100 to POO miles. 1t is coter-
minous with China on the north for
several hundred miles, where the pc
nipsula widens out. Japan might
by means of her fleet command GER
tain points on the coast, but unless
she is prepared to maintain an army
of occupation she cannot hold the
country at large, China has been
sending troops to Korea by sea be
cause it was more convenient than
to march them by land, but she can
adopt the latter alternative in case
of necessity and get there just the
same China has a newly built rail
road from Tien-Tsin to Shan Hal
Kwan, where the Great Wall reaches
the sea. From there to the Korea
boundary is about 300 miles overland
The route lies through the Manchur-
ian province of Shing King, fertile
district with a population Of over q
000, 900 and several considerable cit
les, one having about $4,000 inhabi-
tants. The railroad is being extend
ed from Shan Hai-Kwan northward
through this province toward the
Russian boundary, and nearly skirt
ing the Korean frontier. At Tien-
Tsiu the railroad is in connection
With the Grand Canal and the bust
pass arterial system of the empire.

As STATED in yesterdays GAZETTE,
the bills that had previously passed the
L. 5. House of Representatives for put
ting sugar, coal, iron and barbed wire on
the free list, have been, as was anticl-
pnted, referred by the Senate TO It's u
nance committee. Not only was ma
ioritv of the democratic Senators OPP
posed to them, but the Secretary OF the
Treasury took the trouble to write a
letter to the Senate urging their re-
lection. Why the House ever passed
them passeth ordinary comprehension
as it must have known that the Senate
which had refused TO lower, to the ex-
tent ola farthing, the tariffon any one OF
the articles referred to, could not, with
anv regard forts own understanding, DO
anv thing else than scout the idea OF
putting them or the free list. But the
WAYS of men are past finding out.

a few minutes later the President, DR.

to the Gray Gables landing. The
President was met at the wharf by Mrs
Cleveland and little Rnth Cleveland,
and went Immediately to the house,
accompanied by DR.. O'Reilly and Capt.
Evans. Mr.. Cleveland walked slowly
and unassisted. Later, to query as
to Mr.. Cleveland's condition, Mrs.
Cleveland replied: "The President is
suffering from an attack of malaria
aggravated to considerable extent by
overwork and by close attention TO his
duties at Washington. Since leaving
Washington the President has greatly
improved and it is evident the trip has
already done him much good physical
ly." AS to the Presidents return to

A Row i'm n Church.

BRAZIL, Ind, Aug. l7.-In the midst
of the services at a negro church near
this city last night several toughs en-
tered the building armed with clubs and
began an onslaught on the crowd.
Religious services were suspended and
the participants engaged in the fight,
razors and clubs being freely used. a
number of persons were seriously in
iured. One young man, in an effort to
strike man with club, struck his own
mother terrible blow which knocked
her senseless and it is believed fractured
her skull.
