MORE STRADDLING.

Mckinley is said to be the author of
the money plank in the PLATFORM Of
the Ohio Republican Convention. 1t is
a bold-faced plagiarism of the plank
in the last Democratic National plat
form, and, in the light of recent events,
is a straddle that viii deceive nobody.
1t gives the promise of bi-metallism to
the ear, but breaks it TO the hope.
The people do not want any more
straddlers." The gold men and the
silver men are agreed on one point, and
that is that they viii not longer sub
nit to declarations that mean nothing
Mckinley is gold man or he is not
Everybody knows that, while lacking
the nerve and manliness of Mr.. Cleye-
land, he would veto free coinage bill
just as quick. Why not say so plainly,
so that the voters will know where
he stands? The silver men and the
gold men both will have more respect
for him than the pitiable exhibition ne
made of himself in Chicago and in his
own State Convention.
The time has passed on the money
question when man can look two
ways for Sunday" The DIR. JekylI and
Mr.. Hyde act cannot be successfully
played in the future. Everybody
seems to have found this out except
the Ohio Republicans. 1t is one more
evidence that in that State there is
more hypocrisy and pretense, more
straddling and stiffness, more poll
ties ON the Pecksnifian and Uriah
Heep order than anywhere else in the

illustrating the position Of the Repub-

said, died and went up to the gate kept
by st. Peter. Peter sent him to Moses

WHY DELAY LONGER?

This is a peculiarly appropriate time
to take in hand the. work Of raising the

have a Vance revival and get contr1-
hutton for the statue from every voter

Five hundred dollars each from
Wake. Durham, New Hanover, Meek

Buncombe; two hundred dollars each
from forty of the larger counties; and
500 each from the other forty-nine

placed in Capitol Square. ~
VIII not one or more public-spirited
citizens in each county guarantee and
set in motion agencies to raise at least
500 for each county? Even on an
average of 500 for each county, ninety

NEVADA COLONIZATION.

For the past six years, water storage
mas been much discussed subject IN
Nevada, and it was thought that some
thing wonld be done when Francis G.
Newlands declared himself as anxious
TO undertake the storage of water on
large scale. Surveys and estimates
were obtained, which all showed that
new and profitable field for capital was
open. Large basins holding tremend-
Gus body OF water, and necessitatiny the
erection OF mammoth dams, at enor-
nous expense, were considered neces-
sary for the successful and economical
storage OF water, but experience has
demonstrated the fallacy of this idea
and proved beyond doubt that a sys-
TEN or chain of small reservoirs, re-
curing dams, simple and cheap, would
catch the surplus water equally az well
as the larger ones, and at comparatively
trifling cost.
Large reservoirs could never be relied
on, and were one OF these great mason
airy dams to break, destruction snd
death might result to the thickly popu-
lated valley below. Considerable at
tention and thought has been given to
the subject OF colonization and irriea-
ton OF Nevada's lands, and it is now be-
lleved that under the plans of newly
organized company tho interests OF the
entire State can be advanced.
A company of thoughtful, conserva-
tive men has been formed in Carson
City, who are enthusiastic as to the
grand possibilities of irrigating Nevada.
Having secured every available reser.
voir site on the upper Carson river,
they will begin constructing dams and
storing water next spring. They claim
that they will thus be able to keep the
river up to its maximum height, all
through the irrigating season.
In Carson Valley and down the banks
OF the Carson river are about SO,O01
acres OF arid land which can be irriva
ted by these reservoirs. Negotiations
are now going on with Eastern capital.
