In connection with the meeting
of the Association Sam Davis blew
himself in on banquet fit for the
gods. Champagne, lemonade and
mineral water served as drinks to
wash down the incest of roast pig,
turkey, chicken, salad, Holstein ice
cream, bread and butter, and in fact
everything that master epicurean
mind like Mr.. Davis could suggest
to make people at peace with all the

Grated table and enjoyed by not only
the members OF the PresS ASSocla-

NEwLANDs ON THE OUTLOOK

Congressman Francis G. New
lands in a business letter to Hon.
John S. Mayhugh of Elko, describes
the outlook for silver in the east.
The Elko Independent, by per-
mission, publishes the following ex-
tract from the letter:
AS you probably know by this
time, | was inaccurately reported
by the New York paper 1t is a
part of their campaign programme
to misrepresent silver men. / have
not changed my views.
"My impressions of the silver
outlook east of the Mississippi,
briefly stated are: It is a contest
between the people on one side and
the bankers, bondholders railroads
an the other. While the masses
of the people in the South are over
whelmingly for it, yet Northern
money and railroad influences are
debating the policies Of news
papers and leading business men.
The sentiment in Illinois and In
diana and Kentucky is for silver.
With education, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and New England will make
a surprising showing. The silver
sentiment is growing, and, if the
people will stand united under a
silver standard, they will eventual
ly triumph. To-day the gold press
are trying to create good times, just
as two years ago they created a
panic, in the hope that it would
hurt the silver cause. There may
be little false prosperity, but good
times will not arrive until the sill
yer question is settled for the peo-
pie. There is no need to despair,
and if other states would follow the
independent action of Nevada, the
question would be speedily settled.
An encouraging and gratifying sign
is, the laboring man is holding his
own and is successfully resisting
the efforts made to decrease his
wages"
That Northern money and rail-
road influences, are debating the
policy of certain newspapers in
Nevada as we'll as in the East, it is
evident to everybody who reads
those papers. A New York paper
misrepresented Mr.. Newlands on
the silver question. Several Nevada
newspapers, which are for party
first and silver afterwards, copied
the misstatement, some going so

Cubans Should BE Recognized as
BelligeremtS.

If we had Jackson or a Grant
at the head of affairs to-day the ar
rogant and insolent tone of Spain
would soon become as mild as that
of cooling dove. To proclaim that
death or deportation awaits every
Cuban fighting for the same inde-
pendence for which our own fore
fathers battled more than a hundred
years ago, should enlist every
American in the advocacy of
"Cuba's libre."
For seven long years the men who
made the United States what it is,
sacrificed their lives and their for
tunes at the altar of liberty, and
those who survived saw their count
ry relieved from the oppression of
foreign despotism and become a
harbor or refuge for the oppressed
of all nations.
In those trying times nation
5000 miles away gave the people
struggling for liberty not alone its
sympathy but the material aid that
made victory possible. America has
never ceased to be grateful to France
for her practical sympathy, and
next to the stars and stripes in
American hearts is the tri-color of
our sister republic far over the sea.
If France was generous enough to
extend this support to the strug-
Cling colonists, it would be dis
grace to the American name to see
the brave patriots of Cuba, our
neighbors and friends, overwhelmed
by the hirelings of an effete Spanish
monarchy. Spain is a nation that
has lost no opportunity to show it's
dislike to the American Republic as
the foremost champion Of universal
liberty, and there is no reason to be
discovered in either diplomacy or
delicacy why the government es-
tablished by the Cuban revolution
lists should not be recognized as a
belligerent power.
If it should be done, Cuba would
be free in sixty days, and we would
have earned the eternal gratitude
of its people.-Sacramento Sunday

PENcIL-PUsHERs IN COUNCIL
What Was Done Mt the Adjourned
Press association Meeting Last
Sunday.

sunday.
The newspaper men OF Nevada
held an adjourned meeting at Sam
Davis Holstein ranch, near Carson
last Sunday, to fix schedule of ad-
vertising rates and discuss other
matters. In the absense of E. D.
Kelley, the President, who was
obliged to attend the funeral of DIR.
Hazlett, at this place, S. P. Davis
was called to the chair. The Secre-
tary presented report of what had
been done since the meeting on the
18th of Septe mber, and made a few
suggestions which were acted upon,
after which the Association got down
to- business, and unanimously
agreed to charge the rate allowed
by law for all legal advertising, re-
gardless of person. It was also
agreed that all advertising of a
political nature should be charged
for at the rate of $3.50 per square
for the first week and 81 per square
for each subsequent week, payable
in advance. Political parties and
candidates are too apt to think that
it costs nothing to set type and
that the paper has to be "flled up"
anyway, and have an idea that the
paper is in duty bound to hammer
away and hammer hard for two or
three months before an election in
the interest of their respective par
ties and candidates for the love of
being a Republican, Democrat,
Populist or Silver Party of Nevada
paper. The Association wisely con-
cluded that after this the Press
Association would stand as one
man and demand fair treatment at
the hands of political parties and
candidates.
1t was also agreed that all cards
Of thanks, in memoriam resolutions
and similar matter should be
charged for at the papers standard
rate, and where there are two or
more papers in a town and they
cannot agree on that standard rate,
that the question shall be left to a
Board of Arbitration and a rate
fixed, and until that time the min
imum price for such matter shall
be ten cents a line per day.
An action was taken also in re-
gard to travelling showmen and 9TH
er travelling companies or individ-
uals going into town and having
job work and advertising done and
skipping out without paying their
bill. Any such companies or in
dividuals hereafter visiting any
town in this State and leaving with
out paying their printing bill, the
bill shall be forwarded to some
newspaper in the next town visited
and the papers of that town will
refuse to do business with them un-
less the back bill is paid. In other
words they will be pressed along
the line and denounced as frauds,
On motion S. P. Davis, Miss An
ME H. Martin and III. A. Lennon
were appointed to compile the news
paper laws of Nevada and send the
compilation to the Secretary, who
in turn will send copy to every
newspaper in this State, .r
A Board of Arbitration was ap-
pointed to whom all disputes and
libel cases if any there be, should
be left, and in case any paper OF
the Association is sued for libel it
shall be the duty of the Board to
look into the matter and if they
find the newspapers inthe right the
Association will defend the suit.

A printing office is usually con-
sidered a rather tough place; and
the newspaper man mighty bad
man. Statistics, however, do not
bear out the idea. Of3,890 convicts
in the state penitentiary Of Texas
there is not a printer or newspaper
man, while there are ministers,
doctors, bankers, BARRIERS, photog-
raphers, barkeepers, preachers, cooks
and members of all professions and
callings. The printer gets bad
name because the nature Of his
business teaches him to detest shams
and he scorns the hypocrite. -Er.

PARIS READY FOR A SIEGE.

Preserved Food Now In Storage Sufficient
toFeed the Population for Many Months.
Taking into account the remarkable
advances that science has made in the
way of preserving and COMPRISING
food so that it can be stored in an in
initely small space in proportion to its
nutriment, it is not likely that any be-
sieged city in the future will undergo
the horrors of starvation. Paris has
learned substantial lesson from the
experience she had in 1870 and 1871,
when the German invaders completely
surrounded the city and prevented
any food whatsoever from going in.
If, in fact, an attack should come at
moments notice, the Parisians
would now find themselves well sup
piled and with everything in their
warehouses necessary to support life
for an indefinite time. The war de-
partment has made the accumulation
of an enormous stock of provisions its
especial hobby. Not only meat, flour,
biscuits, preserved vegetables and
solid soups are stored away in the gov
eminent magazines, but also milk,
"Pasteurized," and petroleum, wood,
chemicals and coal. Even the horses
have been kept in mind, for there are
packed away great stocks of com
pressed fodder and grass preserved by
the silo system.
That all these supplies can be kept
on hand in the comparatively small
space the war department has for the
storing of provisions is not so remark
able when it is remembered that forty
thousand rations of preserved vege-
tables can be stored in n space measur-
ing forty inches each way. Milk, the
scarcity of which was a great cause of
distress during the siege of Paris, is
now well provided for. DR.. Antefage's
method OF .'Pasteurizing" milk, which
the government has adopted, will pre-
serve this important necessity of life
for almost any length of time, render
ing it pure and sweet after months and
even years.
BY new chemical methods ice can be
dispensed with in the storage rooms.
and by the use of ammonia machines
1t can be readily made for household
and garrison use. This is extremely
important as regards preserving meat.
One special feature of the policy of the
war department is that it has all it's
arrangements perfected toward imme-
diately collecting, in the case of inn
pending danger, hundreds of thousands
OF fowls. In u few hours, almost, the
city could be substantially provisioned
for nearly year in this regard. Be
sides this, thousands OF pounds OF pre-
served meats are kept continually on
hand.-N. Y. World.

SCHOOL AND CHURCH.


There Is much excitement in En-
gland over the discovery that iron
manufacturers have been making idols
for the worship of the heather of India.
Gen. Booth has issued special
appeal for money and officers for work
in Germany, where the Salvation
Army has made much gratifying pro-
gress lately.
The state law of Illinois prescribes
a four-mile limit to saloons around the
Northwestern university at Evanston,
Chicago The city authorities were
about TO license four saloons within
the limit, but on a protest from Presi-
dent Rogers, the mayor OF Chicago
promised that the licenses would be
refused.
"A Greek Catholic priest ins south
ern Hungary recently forced his whole
congregation to swear in church that
they would not touch liquor for three
years. The liquor dealers and revenue
collectors thereupon protested against
his action to the minister of finance
asking him to declare it illegal He
has not answered yet.
The courts at Stettin recently had
up for settlement n case that can not
be paralleled in the history Of the
church. A member of the consistory,
the highest ecclesiastical body in the
province, DIR. Schumer, of Konigsberg,
was arrested and brought before the
tribunal of justice for having fought
duel with lawyer. What the punish-
ment consisted in the papers do not
state.
The Woman's Improvement League
of Minneapolis, MINI, is engaged in
carrying out plans for the identifying
of the city, and lettering the condition
of it's people. Shade trees have been
set out on several streets; Z. los school
children have been furnished with
flower seeds, with instructions how to
use them for the best results. They
intend also to interest the children in
discriminating the Russian thistle.
The league will soon open cheap bath
rooms with competent persons in
charge.
Another missionary pioneer has
gone, Rev. Samuel Hutchiugs, d. d.,
of Orange, n. j. He sailed in 1888 as
n missionary of the American board
for Ceylon, India, was there for n num-
Der of years, and then returned to this
country on account of ill-health. Dur
ing these years he was pastor of q
number of churches in Massachusetts
and New Jersey, and did a good
deal of literary work, especially in con-
nection with Chambers Encyclo-
pedia" and ''fhe Encyclopedia of Mis-
sions." To this latter he contributed
the greater number OF biographical
sketches. He was for many years in
feeble health, though always active,
and died at the age of eighty-nine.

Land Titles In Ind,nn Territory.

There are now about three hundred
thousand white people in the Indian
territory. They have built up towns,
but are mere tenants at suffrancc with
out particle of title to the lands Oh
which they built The Indian courts
are closed against them, rs are the In

thousand OF whom have no other OPP

those whose parents are able to hire
private teachers. They have no voice

tons nor police officer to protect
them or their property against vio-
lence. twill be the object of.the com
mission, first, to obtain such solu-
ton of the TOWNSHIP question that
those who have built up these towns
and invested large sums in costly
buildings and expensive stores and
trading places may have some title to
the ground upon which the structures
stand and some voice in their govern
mcnt, and secondly, to see that the
vast and valuable territory shall be
held either according to the original
title, for all Indians equally, or shall
be allotted in scvcralty to them, so
that each NAV hold his own share In
