Tho Rogiater indulges In q sudden
burst Of vir.uous indignation over ito
anticipated outcome OF tho Ford.Princo
contested election case before tho house
OF delegates, and in It's comments
ignores oil tho facts aud assumes, with.
out reason, that tho matter was decided
or 10 DO decided without hearing.
Such was not the case. Tho committee
was appointed aud tho evidence rcgu.
larly submitted. Tho fact that Chair.
man Smith has asked for further tina
indicates that tho matter 10 receiving
duo consideration.
Prince. tho Democratic claimant OF
tho seat, had little doionse to make,
while, on the other hand, Mr.. Ford, tho
Republican contestant, had n convinc.
ing case from tho start. Il was tho
knowledge of this fact that warranted
tho statement which gives the Register
so much pain. namely, that 1t would
not take long to dispose Of the matter,
and that Mr.. Ford would be given the
seat.
The Register, after denouncing what
it calla prejudging Of tho case, with
its usual inconsistency, says tho Demo.
cratic claimant was honestly elected.
Now, not having seen the evidence,
how does the Register know this2
Whit can such IN assumption DO but a
preiudSment Of the case?
It's not true, u, tho Register says,
that tho Democratic claimant had a
majority on tho face OF tho returns.
Ford. the Republican candidate in Ra.
leigh county, had majority on the face
Of the returns. Prince, the Democratic
candidate, demanded recount. The
Democratic commissioners went far
enough with it to give him a majority
OF one, and then stopped the recount.
Does the Register endorse that action =?
viii the virtuous (?) Register justify
the giving Of certificate on au untin-
ished recount? What excuse can it
mako for such an outraSer
On the other hand, to overcome a
Democratic majority OF one on an uncou.-
pietrd recount, tho Republican candidate
produced aftidavi,s OF two Democrats
who voted for Prince and swors they
were under age, and six others who
voted tho Same way did not live in the
county. Will the Register say that
under these circumstances there was
no justification for tho assertion that
Ford had clear case?
But the Register denounces Chair
man Smiths undue haste" in tho mat.
ter. Tho Register endorsed tho I'm.
seating Of SIR. Smith himself by the
last Democratic legislature. Does it
remember how long it took that body
to settle that contest? II our contem.
porary will turn to its copy OF the
House Journal it will find that tho mat.
ter was disposed OF in much shorter
time than the Ford-Prince case has
been. Tho Register should DO consis-
tent and unbiased when i. assumes to
deliver lectures on political virtue, for
il it will turn to its own files it will find
that the Smith.O'Kano verdict was con.
fdently predicted by it even before the
case was submitted.
The Registers hypocritical talk about
a partisan legislature comes with poor
grace from the organ OF a party that
committed the Smith outrage, and stole
outright governorship-the blacklist
political crime that has ever dissraced
the name Of any state.

Some popular ideas concerning ap

Hunter Mcclure before the Virginia
medical association in its sessions at
Wytheville. He has Il national repu-
tation, having been Stonewall jack

said that he had never, in all opera

trouble, seen a single grape, tomato

A Rank Nuisance.

The sewer leading from Sun Wah's
wash house in Chinatown empties
into an open ditch few feet from the
was hhouse, and reeking mass of
filth and corruption flows through
that part of town, breeding pestilence
and death. An INDEPENDENT repor
ter took a look at the ditch this morn
ing and came very near throwing up,
not only his breakfast, but the sole
OF his shoes as we'll. Scarlet and ty-
phoid fever and diphtheria microbes
breed i'll filth, and Sun Wah's ditch is
an excellent breeding place for them,
where they can grow fat and sleek.
The INDEPENDENT calls the atten-
ton of the proper authorities to this
matter in the hopes that steps will be
taken to abate the nuisance. With
small poX and other contagious dis
eases raging in Carson and scarlet fe-
yer in Carliu, our people can not be
too strict i'll the observance of SAINT
airy regulations. Sun Wah's sewer
and ditch is rank nuisance and
should be abated at once. A delay
in this may cost valuable lives.

DEATH OF DIR. HAZLETT.
A Prominent Citizen of tho State
Passes Away.

! A private telegram was received in
Reno to day announcing the death of
DR.. j. G. Hazlett, which occurred at
Dayton, Lyon county, at 4:3O o'clock
this morning. No particulars of the
doctors death are given, but it is
learned that he has been suffering
from a severe attack of cholera NOR
bus for some weeks. Mrs. Hazlett,
! who was i'll Reno Friday last, thought
her husband was much better, in fact
! out of all immediate danger at that
time, but it would appear that he had
suffered relapse.
DIR. Hazlett was among the most
prominent men of the State, and has
resided in Dayton for about thirty
two years. He was prominently con-
nected with the Masonic and Odd
Fellows societies and at the time of
his death was Grand Master of the
former and Past Grand Master of the
latter. He was looked upon by the
fellowmembers of these societies and
by his many friends as man of I'M
usual worth and stability.
! He was che of the foremost and
most enterprising citizens of Dayton,
and at one time ably represented Lyon
counly as it's Senator in our legisla-
ture, and has held the office of Dis
trict Attorney of thatcounty for sew
eral terms. His advice and careful
counsel was always sought when
matters Of Importance were in pro-
gress, and the people had the utmost
: confidence in his judgment.
DR.. Hazlett was candidate for
i Governor on the Republican ticket
against Ex-Governor Bradley, when
the latter was elected the second
time, and has always been prominent
ly identified in politics. He was ia
miliarly known throughout the State
and hundreds of people in different
parts of Nevada will join the citizens
at the place of his late residence in
! expressions OF sorrow.
+ The doctor was about Go years of
age. His funeral will take place on
Sunday next at o'clock in the after
noon.-Thursday's Gazette.
When the news Of Bro. Hazlett'a
death becomes known throughout the
State, there will be many expressions
of sorrow. Little did we think when
we met DR.. Hazlett at the I. O. 0. f.
Grand Lodge in June that we would
be called upon so soon to chronicle
his death. He was then in the vigor
of his manhood and looked as if he
still had a long lease of lifo before
him. He will be missed at the annu.
al meetings Of the Orders he loved SC
well. His calm council and words of
wisdom will no longer be heard at
these gatherings. His tongue is
stilled and his voice is hushed, but
the memories that cluster around his
name will live in the hearts of all
who knew him.
The INDEPENDENT extends its
tenderest sympathies to the bereaved
widow in this hour of trial May
her sorrow be lighteened by the ten.
der care and sympathies of the great
brotherhoods that mourn the loss of q
wise counsellor and an earnest co
worker.
Though dead, Brother Hazlett still
lives in the hearts OF his brethren
Sleeep gently, dear Brother, until the
resurrection morn.

We know of no town with the

that pays SO little attention to its
streets-its lights-and its water.
The paving of our streets could
be easily accomplished and the
mud that we are now forced to
wade through done away with if
each citizen would pave either
with brick or concrete or asphalt
the distance i'll front of his own
home. In our large cities they
the residents,-are compelled by
law to do this and it might be
we'll if We were forced to do the
same thing. Many places i'll our

ance that a grass grown country
lane does and it is not to our

reach as does a boomerang.
neutrality-suspicious. of the law by
those whose duty it is to make 1t
clear are sometimes the result OF
carelessness, at others of neglect,
and still at others of intentional
suppression of whole or part OF
the truth. Much indignation
has been expressed, by many,
that the qUhoLe law as revised,
was not known, or if known,not
made public before the election

Interpretation of it at the first,

The light question is only
light in the levity with which it
is discussed. Why remain in
darkness? If we are to have On>
ly the kerosine lamp why then
double or quadruple the number.
Those that we nave, remind one
more of a belated FREELY OH his
way to convention than of any
thing we have seen. There is
capital sufficient in our town to
equip and run an electric plant
and it would be an investment
that would yield large returns.
The same power that drove the
dynamo might with equal ease
drive the machinery for an ice
plant and we would have home
capital benehtting both our town
and the investor. If capitalists
sit idly by they will see some one
else reaping a harvest of shekels
that might have gone, into their
Golfers. Turn on the light.

1t seems to some folly to say
water when there is water every>
where; but is it the kind of water
we need? Recent articles i'll this
paper and the experience of some
of our citizens say that it is not.
1t is urged that we cannot, with
out great expense if at all have
artesian water. Very good. Why
not cisterns, instead of the little
top,heavy "holes in the ground"
that we find around town? Some
may say that the scheme is not
feasible. Let lis see: Locate
large cistern at the corner known
as Dixon 's,-the water from four
to six or even more roofs could
be easily conveyed to it-another
higher up town say at Burton's
corner could be supplied in the
same way-one on the Academy
green, supplied from its roof,
