The weather was most inclemeut at first;

Marsten and Water.


Mr. r w. Marsten, who did the comedy
business at the late Chicago Convention by
drinking anywhere from 10 to Is glasses OF
water in the presence of the bowling audience
of 90 900 persons who would not allow him
to speak, is likely to gain some substantial
advantage from the ridcule heaped ON MN.
Mr.. Marsten's picture was published In the
various papers as "the Louisiana water
tank.n and he now seems to be IN UNIVERSAL
demand in consequence. One OF the largest
and best-known mineral-springs companies
in this country, which claims to have sup
nlied The water used at the Chicago ConVen-
tion. has written to Mr.. Marsten to secure
certificate from him that the reason why ne
drank those 10 glasses of water credited TO
him was because he found it the best drink
ing water he had ever used.
There are other rival mineral-water COM
panies after him, however, who believe tnat
his Endorsement of their product wouid %
the best advertisement they could get.
Moreover, the water-drinking episode prom
ises to land him in Congress. Mr. MaIsten
was not dreamed of as a political candidate
before the Chicago Convention, having very
little political influence, but he has since
come out for Congress, and taken the stump,
and is meeting with remarkable success.
His district is strongly Prohibition" as well
as for free silver, and Marsten's water record
is doing him as much good as his financial
position In every Marsten meeting so Tar
held he has been greeted with shouts OF
"Water! water!n and Prohibition hymns
are sung. Mr.. Marsten has become the
hero of both the Silver men and the Pro-
bibitionisls, with every prospect of going to
Congress on these issues of water and silver.

Urges That it be Hold 1t Nashville.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: have sss-
sestion to make for your consideration. ana IL
You deem it of any value use the same in any
manner yon choose through ysur paper. by
plea 10 for the National Eucampment for 1877
to be held in the city of Nashville, Tenn. con-
current with the celebration Of the Tennessee
Centennial, which Is to be an exhibition second
only to the Worlds Fair at Chicago. We be-
lieve that an organization Of young men sucn
as the Sons of Veterans, of National character
in every sense of the term, can well AFFORD, IL
need b. to make some sacrifice to hold its next
annual invention in the city Of Knoxville
on the battlefield of Pap Thomas" and
Hood-and gather lessons OF inspiration and
patriotism from the place and the OCCASION.
We believe for them to do this will be no sac
rifce. but pleasurable and profitable dis
charge of duty that We as Sons OF Veterans
owe to our country, by culeivating closer
association with the young mon OF the south.
The only objection that can be urged againsi
such meeting in 1897 is the fact that Tor two
years, 1895 and 1896, the EncsmpBent mas
been held South. e., at Knoxville and
Louisyille-and therefore, il should not DC
held South in 1897, but 60 North, East, OF
West.
We will admit the premise, but should we
not look earnestly and with favor upon the op'
portunity and the occasion which the lennes
see Centennial will afford the Sons of Veteran:
for a more extended and favorable acquaiHt
ance among the people of the South. and become
more familiar with localities aud conditions
where their fathers offered their lives asacrihc'
for the salvation of our Government. The more
freouent we can have such Conventions inter
chaugeably North and South among our yount

How the Laboring Men of Mexico Live on
$40 Month.

Isl. Louis Globe Den,ocrat.l
The American Vice-Consul- General at
Nueva Laredo, Mr.. Walls, was asked for an
estimate of the living expenses of a Mexican
family of seven.
Ten dollars month"; he said.
Mexican money 2" was asked.
"Yes; Mexican money" was the reply.
"The families of Mexican laborers here in
Laredo live Oh SO MONTH"
How can they do it?"
"You've seen their little one-room jacals?
The jacal, as you have probably noticed, has
a couple of poles in front or in rear of the
main structure, supporting roof Of brush or
boards. This gives SO much additional
shelter When the weather is pleasant the
whole family sleep out of doors under this
roof When the weather is bad they all
sleep in the one room of the jacal. They
have no bedsteads. There are millions of
Mexicans Of the labor class who never sleep
in a bed from one year to another"
"What rent do they pay for these little
one-room huts?"
From SO cents to So month, Mexican
money. Sometimes they go to person who
has piece of ground and get the privilege
of putting up hut rent free or at merely
nominal charge"
Do you include clothing, as well as rent,
in this estimate Of $40 a month for the ex-
penses of a Mexican family OF six or seven ?"
"Yes. The clothing is mostly of the
coarsest cotton, with calico dress for the
woman and pair of trousers for the man.
1t is small item. The food is the chief
| thing"
ION what does the Mexican laborers
family live so cheaply-yegetables?
mo. The Mexican laborer must have
| his meat. But he makes little of it go a
long way. II you will visit our market you
| will find the laboring people making their
| purchases just before closing time. They
wait until those better off have supplied
themselves Then they go and bargain for
what is left. In this climate the butcher
must sell, and the laboring people wait
until the last hour, SO as to buy as cheaply
as possible. This meat is cooked twice be.
fore it is eaten. II is boiled and stewed, and
the soup or broth thus made furnishes the
dinner. Then the meat is taken out, cut in
long strips, and fried with plenty of pepper
| for another meal The fjoes, or beans, and
the bread make, with the meat the staple
articles of food for Mexican labor. Pota-
toes, as a rule, come too high. The Mexi.
can laborer cannot afford to eat potatoes.
He uses vegetables only when they are
abundant and cheap. He is great on melons
| When they are in season he will come az
near living on melons as the negro does in
the States. Rice furnishes q dish that il
growing in popularity with Mexican labor.
| II can be bought in New Orleans for q
cents and cents in bond, and is sold here
for cents and 8 cents pound. On his
| meat his beans, and rice, and his bread
| made from corn soaked and mashed, the
Mexican laborer lives, as he considers it
pretty well ON $40 month, house rent and
clothes for six included. And this $40 il
Mexican money, worth to-day $500 il
American money"

Official Paper of Esmeralda County
FEBRUARY 5, 1896
The Silver Bill Passed.

The Senate substitute for the
House bond bill passed the Senate
Saturday by the decisive majority OF
AZ to 80. The bill provides that the
mints shall be open to the coinage Of
silver dollars of 4124 grains troy Of
standard silver upon the same terms
as gold, and when such silver coins
shall be received into the Treasury,
certificates may be issued therefore
as now provided by law. The Secre-
tary of the Treasury shall coin stand
ard silver dollars as prescribed from
the silver bullion purchased under
The act of 1890, and the difference
between the price paid for such bull
lion and its coinage value Shall be
used in the payment OF the current
expenses of the Government and for
the purpose of making such differ
ence Immediately available for use as
money, the Secretary is directed to
issue silver certificates against IT,.
No National bank note of demon
nation of less than SO shall hereaf-
ter be issued and all outstanding
aotes of less denomination shall be
redeemed and cancelled and notes of
larger denominations issued in their
stead. The Secretary of the Treas
ury shall redeem the United States
notes commonly called greenbacks,
aud also the Treasury notes issued
under the act of 1899 in standard
silver dollars or in gold coin, not at
the option of the holder, but eXclu-
'sively at the option of the Treasury
Department, and greenbacks when
so redeemed shall be reissued.
The passage of this act would obvi
ate the necessity of issuing bonds. 1t
would place the finances of the coun-
try on a bimetallc basis instead of
the single gold standard, 1t would
enhance the prices of nearly all the
products of the soil and the work
shop release the country from the
s5rangling grasp Of the money power
and make our State one of the most
prosperous in the Union. If the
House should pass the bill, there is
little hope that Cleveland will sign
