Ceremonies.

A large crowd assembled at the
Governors Office in the State Capitol
to witness the ceremonies incidental
to the Inauguration OF Governor
Jones.
The Appeal says a little after IL
o'clock Chief Justice Bigelow nd.
ministered the oath OF Office to the
Governor and Lieutenant Governor,
us the law requires. Tho other
State officers merely had to flo their
oaths OF office with the Secretary OF
State.
After the oath was taken Governor
Colcord shook hands with Jones and
Sadler. and ina very pheasant little
speech introduced them to the guests.
Governor Jones, 1 greet you, and
most heartily do 1 wish that you may
succeed in bearing the high trust re-.
posed i'll YOU as nobly, as c~onscien-
tiously and rs honorably MS l have
tried to do.
Governor Jones replied us follows:
Il accept the trust imposed upon
me in accordance with the Constitu-
ton and The laws. In assumming the
duties of the office ! will endeayor to
discharge the functions OF Chief Ex-
ccutive in such u manner us to reflect
credit on myself and to promote the
industry and general prosperity OF
the State. This 1 can:do only with.
the assistance and cooperation Of the
people, which | hope and trust will
be freely given. Tho policy. the WIS
dom and the progressive ideas that
have made the administration OF my
honored predecessor so successful, 1
will endeavor to emulate
Then followed applause and hand
shaking and everybody congratulated
the two men who could reach them.
There were calls for Gov. Sadler,
who announced that he was not prim.
ed with Il speech Just then, but would
open the valves Of his oratory some
later day.

Views OF Republican Senators.

WAsHINGToS, Jan. l0.-Senators

rich, Republican members OF the FL
nance Committee, had u conference
to-day for the purpose OF deciding
upon Il policy in case there be an ef-
fort to take up the currency question
i'll the Senate. The conference was
decided upon after Chairman Voor-
hecs issued a call for Il meeting OF the
full committee ut . o'clock today.
They agreed that no definite and fl
nal conclusion could be reached I'M
til some measur had been brought to
their attention by the Democratic
members of the committee.
They will not suggest a bill them
selves % suggest anything looking
to the reflection Of a bill. Further
more they will suggest ia the Demo

called upon for suggestions that in
view Of the report that Secretary Car
Isle has been in consultation with the

revival of the currency bill in the
House, I'M modified form. it will be
the better plan to postpone my effort
to do anything in the Satene until
there may be an opportunity to ascer.
tain what will be the result in the

Tho conversation developed that
the Republicans do not consider the
Treasury situation so critical rs some
of the Democrats do. and they think
1t n question Of revennc rather than
currency. 1t is said n new currency
bill having executive approval will be
introduced in about two weeks.
The Senate committee on finance
met at . O'Clock to-day for the pur.
pose Of considering the Currcncyq ues

WEEKLY INDEPENDENT.
CLERK OF THE SUPREME COURT.

The Virginia Enterprise says: "a
letter to the Legislature, asking that
the office of Clerk OF the Supreme
Court be re, established, was sent
here for signatures OF the lawyers OF
this section a few days ago. 1t was
duly signed and returned. The Office
Of Clerk is not so unimportant as
many suppose and it ehould have the
undivided attention il necessary OF
ont person.
From the above it would appear
that a determined effort will be made
in the next Legislature to repeal the
Act of February 20, 1893, abolishing
the office of Clerk Of the Supreme
Court and placing the duties of that
officer on the Secretary OF State. II
it is accomplished, it means the sad
ding OF another useless officer on the
already overburdened taxpayers OF
Nevada. We say n useless officer be-
cause, under the present conditions
in Ncyada-the sparsity OF popula-
ton, the poverty of the people and
the small amount of litigation that
reaches the Supreme Couat-the Sec.
rotary Of State has ample time to
transact all the business necessary to
be done by n Clerk OF that Court.
The people Of Nevada are not in a
condition to pay salaries TO
sary officers. a great many of them
can barely procure the necessnries OF
life for themselves and families.
They1ookto the incoming Legislature
TO lop Off all unnecessary cxpendi.
tnres of the public funds, instead OF
increasing their burdens by the ere.
alton of unnecessary offices, to be
filled by the pets of the dominant
party. Retrenchment, not extrava.
gancc. should be the motto of the
Q Legislature.
Tho lEpErENpEST hopes that il a
bill TO re.establish the Office OF Clerk
OF tho Supreme Court be introduced
into the Legislature, it will receive
the united opposition OF the Elko
delegation in the Senate and Assem-.
bly, and be promptly defeated.
The letter spoken of by the Enter
prise shculd have but very little
weight with the members OF the Leg.
islaturc. Their duty is to the entire
people OF the State, and not to the
members of II particular profession.
Tho Secretary of State, as ex-officio
Clerk Of the Supreme Court, can at.
tend to all the duties OF that Office as
well as n seperate officer, and he
should be made to do il. He will
not have work enough, then, to make
him tired.

JAPANESE TRADE.

Some OF our local dealers are be-
ginning to feel keenly the competi-
ton OF the japanese. But it is not
only Hawaiian dealers that feel the
pinch. The japanese are begin
ming TO Gust the manufacturers OF
America and Great Britain from
the markets OF the Far East. "
In the matter of cotton goods the
import of raw material has in
creased immensely in order to sup
ply the manufacturers. To form
some idea OF the increase, the total
number OF spindles doubled from
1893 to 1894, advancing from one
quarter of a million to half a mil
lion. japanese cotton goods are
now sold from Corea to Singapore.
a watch company has recently been
formed. The very best machinery
from the States has been obtained,
and very soon japanese cheap
watches will be following japanese
cottons. japanese matches have
pretty well revolutionized the I'M
fortunate match trade. Labor in
Japan is so cheap, and its people
are so excellently adapted for sue
cess in any line that requires man
lal skill, that once a manufacturing
inc is taken up with adequate
,apital it must undersell the pro-
lucts of nations whose workmen
must have a good wage to even de-
emily live.
Exactly how to meet the present
here is not very clear.
We cannot prohibit the import of
apanese goods-we cannot dis
riminate against them. 1t must
e met, however, and our retail
Merchants need to be up and doing.
rom small beginnings great things
row, and complaints coming from
ome of our traders show that there
danger to all.

Let any one take watch and sit
quietly to see how long a minute

the greater severity of the shock.

which Time is tripping over with

that bill, treated without gloves. 1t
never got outside the House, how
ever, and died quiet death within
