As the SESTIsEL predicted last week,
Senator Dubois Of Idaho took his medi-
cine like q little man at the meeting OF
the League Of Republican Clubs at
Cleveland, Ohio. last Wednesday. Un-
like the great Cesar Of old, be came, he
saw and he weakened, il the following,
which we End in the late press dispatches,
be true:
CHICAGO, June 1.-THE programme
has been agreed upon to avoid financial
discussion as far as possible and limit
the action Of the convention to the pre-
paration Of an address to the people oil
the country. simply reafirming the prin-
ciples Of the platform Of 1892. Senator
Carter, Chairman Of the National Com
mittee and one Of the silver leaders, is
in favor oil no resolutions at all on the
money question.
An important conference was held this
afternoon between Senator Dubois OF
Idaho, Senator Carter Of Montana and
ex-senator William Pitt Kellogg, at
which the policy Of silence on the silver
question at Cleveland was agreed upon
after Q full discussion Of the situation.
It was somewhat difficult to convince
Senator Dubois, who is young and risky.
that silver would lose no ground while
the party interests would be subserved
by avoiding . fight.
The conversion OF Senator Dubois is 9
notable one, for hitherto he has looked
upon the Cleveland Convention as bis
meat, and he was primed for a lively
row, with open threats Of boiling. unless
silver were satisfactorily treated in the
platform. This conference Of the lead
ers practically assures harmony at Cleve-
land, as it is hardly likely the rank and file
Of silver men will assume to jump over
the traces. Probably nothing more than
an address will be formulated, and even
that may be omitted.

A contest took place in Chicago last
Saturday between the silver men and
gold men, which resulted in . complete
victory for the former. The fight was
for the election Of Presidents and other
officials Of the various Democratic ward
clubs Of the city. and the gold bugs also
made . desperate effort to get control OF
the County Central Committee. Avictory
for the goldites would mean 337 gold
bug delegates in the State Convention
next Spring, which. with such support
from the country districts as could be
counted on, would mean the overthrow
Of the free silver organization and res
toration Of Illinois to the single gold
standard men which would cut . very
important figure in the National
Democratic Convention next year.
It now transpires that the gold bugs
felt confident Of vanquishing their oppo-
nents, but instead have suffered . more
complete defeat than they did ct Sprin-
field . short time ago.

w. g. Land, the cattle dealer and
pioneer OF Arizona, is at the Russ. He
tells the Examiner that cattle have
gone up in price. "There is the bright
est outlook for growers in six years."
said Mr.. Land, "as there is a shortage
of merchantable steers three years old
and upward from Louisiana to Wash
ington. The advance has been in the
last eight months. Stock cattle have
advanced in proportion. In the last
four months in the neighborhood Of
81 5000 head Of cattle have been ship
ped from Arizona to Texas, Kansas
and Montana. Arizona is a big cattle
country, and l am glad prices have
advanced, though I am a buyer, and
buyers are not apt usually to talk this
way"

Jackson, the great Tennesseean, who
achieved fame through bis successful an.

story Of Jsckson's refusal, when cap
tured by the British as q boy, to blacken
the boots Of an English officer. who
struck him with 9 sword, leaving a scar
that he bore until his death. Sibley
gave it = political turn by exclaiming that
there were Democrats in Tennessee who
would blacken those boots to-day and

We are often told that while we may
be able to cure consumption or pneumo-
mia, yet we cannot cure . common cold.
We desire to state In this connection
what we have often said before, that we
have q very favorite remedy for ell these
cases. We have tried it in very many
instances and with almost invariable
success. The remedy to which we refer
is pLenace.ine. So soon as the patient
feels the premonitory symptoms OF the
cold let him take a hot foot bath ct bed
time, drink freely of some warm drinks,
and take five, seven and q hall. or even
ten grains Of phenacetine. In q strong
adult we do not hesitate to give the full
dose Of ten grains. The result is that
the patient has . good nights sleep and
awakens in the morning free from pain,
while nearly all the symptoms oil the
cold have disappeared. OF course unu-
sual care must be exercised during the
day TO prevent the body from becoming
chilled.-Medical Compend.

IL is touching and beautiful to READ
how men did business in 40 and 90.
When mems honor and general sense oil
decency and the fitness Of things was
the law that guided their actions.
In those days Alvibzs Hayward had
= partner named Chamberlain. who got
disQruntled, quit mining and started .
ranch. One day Hayward couldn't get
trusted for o sack Of -four. So be
mounted . horse and rode cver to Cham
berlain's ranch and laid the situation be-
fore his former partner. Chamberlain
heard him out without comment or sign
Of any kind, and when be had finished
the tale quietly arose and motioned him
to follow. Going ont behind the house,
be took q pitchfork standing there and
scratched away some straw that lay on
the ground near by. From a small hole
thus disclosed be took out a bag. and
without q word handed it over to Hay
ward. The bag contained $1,000. NO
scratch OF the pen was wasted, no more
words we're exchanged. Men acted in
those days. Hayward rode back to his
mine, paid off his men and quietly went
to work again. At q depth Of 500 feet
ore was struck and q rich lead it was.
l q q few months q sixty-stamp mill was
and the mine paying handsomely.
When about s35. 900 . month was COM
ing in, Hayward had the property di-
vided into three equal parts. a deed
made out for one OF them and sent with
out comment over to Chamberlain's little
farm in FL Dorado county.
In these days men dare not trust their
most intimate friends with money with
out a receipt. Men lie. gouge and swim
die and the man who gets the better OF
his friends is ranked as smooth and cum
ming and is regarded as a great deal bet
ter than the man who gets swindled.
The old days of mans confidence in
have long passed awsy.-Carson

rux OLD PARTIES DISTURBED.

The Chicago Record, . paper which
does not advocate the gold standard nor
the free coinsge Of silver, says the silver
question will be the paramount issue in
the next campaign and is now causing .
great disturbance in the old parties.
Lifelong Republicans are in the ranks
Of the free silver advocates and will sup
port the party most favorable to that
cause, and staunch Democrats are de-
eidedly opposed to free silver and will
leave the party IL il puts a free silver
plank in its platform.
Il is admitted that IL one or the other
Of the old parties do not put IN unequiv.
Deal silver plank in its platform a third
party will do so. The opinion is now
expressed that the silver men will en-
deavor to capture the National Demo-
cratic Convention and nominate o free
coinage candidate for President. That
would cause the gold bug Democrats to
bolt and 90 into the Republican ranks.
What the Republicans would gain by
this accession they would more than lose
by desertions from their own ranks, IS
at least one-third OF their number are
in favor Of free coinage. The silver
producing States would all cast their
electoral votes for the free coinage candi
date. as would also every Southern
State. with the possible exception OF
Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia.
The great Central States, Ohio. Indiana,
Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota,
Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas are
said to be for silver. so that in a square
fight on the question the silver candi-
date would have a large majority, though
every State east Of the lakes and north
of the Potomac should vote for the gold
standard candidate. The gold party.
with the friends Of silver united, could
not carry more than twelve or fourteen
States nor get more than $50 electoral
votes.

EUREKA, June 20, 1895.
Ed. SENTINEL: The worthy citizens
of Elko, who are engineering the
scheme to establish a daily mail serv-
ice between Elko and Hamilton "in
lieu Of the present unsatisfactory
service between Eureka and Hamil-
ton, are not showing just how the
present order Of things is "unsatis-
factory" II seems that the people OF
Hamilton are refusing to sign the petit
ton for a change. This might indicate
to any but the aforesaid worthy citi-
zens OF Elko that the present service
is not so unsatisfactory after all;
at least to the people who would be
most seriously affected by the proposed
change.
The mails for that section of the
State have been sent out from Eureka
for a great many years, and this is the
first complaint heard OF the service.
The contract is at present held by Mr.
Miller Of Ely, and his management is
giving the best satisfaction all along
the line.
Wonder how the worthy citizens oil
Elko expect to convince the Postotiice
Department at Washington OF the adj
vantages to be derived from a change =?
Hamilton is 12S miles from Elko, and
but 43 miles from Eureka. That is,
the the people of Hamilton, Ely,
Osceola, Baker, Sunnyside, Cleveland
and several other towns would, under
the proposed change, have the pleasure
of adding IL or II hours to the time
made under the present system.
