An Awful calamity at St. Louis.


Yesterdays dispatches brought US the
first brief account of what appears to
have been the greatest calamity the
country has suffered since the Johns
town food An awful coronado struck
the great city Of st. Louis on Wednes-
day night, and accomplished awork of
destruction which marked it as one OF
the greatest calamities in many years.
The loss of liYes is estimated at all the
way from 1000 to 1900, and the des-
truction of property was enormous.
The accounts, so far, are very meagre
and the details will be awaited every
where with the greatest anxiety. st.
Louis is a great city and there is
scarcely a village in the west where
some or the people will not be anxious
for further news, because of having
friends there AS large loss of life
occurred by the destruction of excursion
and pleasure boats on the river, filed
with people from every portion of the
city, it viii require long time to make
up a list of the lives lost.

Those are sincere congratulations
that are being showered upon England's
queen in honor of her seventy seventh
birthday. She is an old woman now,
very near the grave; she was never ac-
cused of being brilliant or scholarly;
such beauty as she possessed vanished
and was forgotten years ago; she has
whims and superstitions and since her
husbands death has been too much
given to sadness and gloom; and yet
she viii hold higher place in history
than any other sovereign who ever sat
on Britain's throne, She has done the
very best thing possible for her people
she has let them alone. If there are
any monarchs left in the world two
hundred years from now they will be
following her example and not making
their nations ridiculous by such whole
sale interference as Germany is tolerat-
ing from its ambitious emperor -Spo-
kane Chronicle.

Cyclone horrors have been of un-
usual frequency in the middle west, du-
ring the month Of May, from Texas to
Iowa. and the number Of lives lost has
aggregated fully one hundred. No
damaging cyclone has ever been re-
corded on the Pacific side Of the Rock
les, and immunities therefrom are
among the blessings vouchsafed to our
people.

Bro. York ought to have remembered
that there is no glory in running away

must have found his inspiration by pc

Of Hon. William j. Bryan for Presi-
dent Of the United States, rousing
cheers we're proposed and heartily
given by citizens who happened to be
on Main street when the stage ar
rived on the 18th instant. The Stars
and Stripes were displayed and sa-
lutes were fred in honor of the nomi-
nee. The booming Of cannon COM
menced ut 7 o'clock p. M. and con-

Bryan is a very popular man in Nye

taken in the night with cramping
pains and the next day diarrhoea set
in. She took half a bottle Of black
berry cordial but got no relief. She
then sent to me to see, if / had any
thing that would help her. 1 sent
her a bottle of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and
the first dose relieved her. Another of
our neighbors had been sick for a
week and had tried different remedies
for diarrhoea but kept getting worse
1 sent him this same remedy. Only
four doses of it were required to cure

~Thirty-Six Years.

history Of the. United States be divid-
ed into periods Of t~hirty-six years, a
remarkable fact is discovered. Thlrs
ty-six years after the organization of
the government a political crisis oc-
cured in which the old Federalist
party disappeared, and John Quincy
Adams was elected as the first Wing
president. Thirty-six years after that
the first Republican President. Thir
ty-six years after Lincoln's election,
and now we have witnessed the Popu
iisric reformation of the Democratic
party. and in November hope to see
the triumph Of the new democracy.
Thlrty-six years ago the next presi-
dent was born.

A number Of Republican papers
are simply o~yerhowing with great JOY
: at the telegraphic announcements that
a few Democratic papers have decid-
ed that they could not support Bryan.
but it Is a fact worthy Of note that
they studiously refrain from saying a
word about Republican papers that
have refused to have the Mckinley
and protection bill showed down their
throats.
The list Of Democratic papers re-
tusing to endorse Bryan have been
published and republished in large
and small type under scare heads and
in every conceivable way to attract
attention and work a point. The truth
is that the two or three dozen papers
80 listed occupy about the same posi-
ton or comparison in the newspape
world as a few dozen raindrops would
in the broad Pacific. 1t is more than
probable that each one of them is
controlled by a syndicate or corpora
ton closely allied to other syndicates
or corporations that are in turn con-
trolled by the gold trust and all that
Ii necessary to shape the policy o. the
papers i'll question is to pull a string
or push a button at head quarters and

In connection with this subject why
is it that four or five Republican pap.
ers in Nevada have been SO ready to
publish the list and comment on Dem
ocratic papers that have declared
against Bryan, yet are so backward in
placing Mckinley and Hobart at the
head of their own columns?--Reno
