ALL STRAIGHT GOODS.

The selection of attaches for the
Senate and House was very gratifying
to Silver men. They We're all straight
goods even to the Pages and lady at
taches. They were either regular Sill
yer people or belonged to Silver fam
lilies.
Quite number of regular straight
Republicans. men who fought the
ticket last November, were on deck
asking for offices for themselves and
their people. but in no instance We're
they offered any more recognition
than they would have given Silver
men were the Republican party in
power. The party lines were drawn
taut and the political antecedents Of
each candidate down to the Pages We're
carefully srrntinized. The record
shows TO Silver men that there is a
regular Silver party on deck in New
ada and it will continue to he on deck
until the clamor of the stamp mill and
the whiz Of Mint machinery turning
out silver dollars at Is to l is again
heard in the land of the sagebrush.

DeYcung and Perkins.

Over in California is Senatorial
struggle between two representative
men of California. Mr.. DeYoung and
George Perkins.
One is a clear cut out and ont silver
man. who has advocated bimethllism
in his paper for years. The other is a
professed silver man. hut his silver
principles are hedged all about with
quail fications and promises, by which
the careful eye can recognize the pri-
vate brand Of Wall street. He is a
sort Of third crop silver man and if
an early Fall frost comes you can'tde-
pend on the crop.
Nevada wants to see none OF this
sort in the Senate and every Nevada
man and every real silver man who
wants 10 see some energy impressed
into this fight against Wall street,
from this Const should help the editor
of the Chronicle in his struggle.

REFUTE THE FALSEHOOD.

Senator John P. Jones has been a
he entered the United States Senate
shortly after it became publicly known
that the Act Of 1873, relating to the
United States Mint, demonetiZed silver.
He received almost the unanimous
support of the people OF Nevada for
Senator because OF his advocacy OF
free coinage He hoped for many
wears to accomplish this within Re
publican lines and, therefore. re-
manned with that party. He used ar.
gument and influence in a vain en-.
deavor to convince the Republican
leaders that the gold standard will re-
duce the price of labor and commodi-
ties and cause general commercial de-
preston. Finally he severed his re.
lations with the Republicans and in
formed the State Central Committee Of
the fact and gave his reasons for the
change The State Central Commute
arroeantly demanded his resignation.
tor who did not affiliate with the Re-
publican party did not represent the
sentiments Of the people Of Nevada.
Since the Republican State Central
Committee demanded the Senator's
resignation a general election has
been held in Nevada, and the Legisla-
ture chosen at that election is now in
session One Of the very first acts OF
that body should be the adoption OF
resolution refuting the falsehood that
Senator Jones did not represent the
wishes OF the people Of this State when
he left the Republican party, and ex-
pressing confidence in his Judgment
and ability as representative Of
silver producing State.
It is due the Senator that the Legis-
lature should recognize the fact that
he left the Republican party, with
which he had affiliated for many
years, because of the attitude Of that
party on the silver question, and that
his course is approved by his constit.
uents. He participated in the cam
paign and denounced the policy Of the
gold trust, which is running the
country, from the stump He is iden-
titled with the reform movement and
is recognized as one Of the ablest
champions and most trusted leaders.
He is opposed to issuing bonds to ac-
eommodate the gold men, and is one
of the staunchest and nncompromis.
ing friends Of silver in the Senate. and
the LEGISLATURE, by joint resolution,
should unanimously proclaim to the
country that his course is most
heartily approved by the people Of
Nevada. -Jonrnal,

Governor Turney Makes a Formal
Claim Of Recollection.
REFUSED TO CANVASS THE VOTE.

Democrats Refuse 20 Allow the Result TO
DO Declared Untn Action Is Taken ON
aaotion for Investigating Alleged Frauds
at the Ballot Boz.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Jan. ill., new
move was made In the gubernatorial fight
yesterday. When the senate met the pc
tition Of Governor Turney asking to be al
lowed to appear before the joint conven.
ton of the two houses ITO contest the re.
turns and to show that was elected, and
that II. Clay Evans was not" was read.
This was In the nature Of a surprise to
many, the fact that such petition was to
be presented not being generally known.
No action was taken on the petition.
There was but q short session Of the
house, the chief interest eentering around
the senate, where a lively debate was In
progress all day Upon Senator Buffers
resolution to Ak day for the meeting Of
the joint convention to canvass and an
nounce the vote for governor Senator
Beine, Democrat, offered a substitute
which postpones the converting Of the joint
convention until an examination into al
legged frauds and Irregularities shall have
been made during this session Of the legis-
lature. The debate was opened by Senator
Butler, and generally participated in by
senators Of both parties.
The Republican argument, outlined by
Senator Butler, is that the constitution of
the state provides that the returns sent by
sheriffs to the speaker of the senate shall
be openly canvassed and announced in the
presence Of the members Of both houses in
joint convention, and that no objection
can be made against the correctness Of the
votes shown by the face of the returns.
The Democratic senators contend that the
face Of the returns is only prima facie evil
dence, and the correctness of the returns
can be assaulted and an Investigation had
II alleged frauds are proven; that all
proper corrections must be made and then
the canvass of the votes made and an
noupced by the speaker of the senate.
The debate was along these lines and
was quite animated at times and attracted
large audience, the house adjourning TO
attend. When the senate adjourned the
debate had not ended and was resumed
this morning. There is much activity
shown by the leaders and managers of both
sides.
Rumors have been afloat that from nine
to thirteen Democratic Legislators had
promised to vote for the seating of Mr..
Evans without an investigation and con-
test of the returns, and Democratic man
ayers have been busily engaged In run
ming these runors down. They say there
is no truth in them Conferences and
meetings behind closed doors by both sides
are going on, and there is much hustling
being done by the steering committees.

RALEIGH, Jan. 1.-The legislature is
getting ready for some effective but con
seryative work. Bills have been intro
duced in both houses u reduce the legal
rate OF interest from TO per cent. Tho
last legislature made some amendments to
the charter Of the state Farmers Alliance
by which the work Of that organization
was considerably weakened. Senator
Newborne introduced bill to repeal these
amendments, and the bill passed its three
readings. The senate will arrange to have
Its standing committees appointed by
special committee, and not by the presi-
dent of the senate, as Is customary. This
is because the president, who is the lieu
tenant governor of the state, holds his
office by Democratic suffrage.
