Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1896-10-17

INDEPENDENT candidates in this
county may be likened to the Pop
ulists, Democrats or Republicans
who refuse to fuse for the purpose
of electing Bryan. They are in the
field, with very little show of win
ming, only to injure the chances of
the Silver nominees. The Lyon
county Silver ticket is composed of
just as good men as the string of
independents which the Republi-
cans have lined up to oppose the
Silver ticket. A vote for the ticket
is vote for a clean government for
the county, just taxation to all, and
the return of J. p. Jones to the
u. s. Senate. Silver men should
bear this in mind and vote the tick
ct straight, also get their friends to
do the same. If the party is to be
held together the nominees must be
supported, else there is no use of
having party organization. A

WHILE our Mason Valley neigh
bors are finding so much fault with
the sheep license Act would it not
be good idea for them to stop a
moment and consider the matter.
There IL no earthly reason why the
owners of bands of sheep should
not pay license or tax to help
support the government of the
county. They have not done so in
Lyon county, because the Assessor
failed to collect from them last
year These same .sheep men,
however, wentinto Esmeralda coun-
ty, and there paid taxes to the
amount of about $1,000. They
paid there this year also. Now
what is the reason of this? It is
simply because the range in the
neighborhood of the Valley was
eaten off and ruined, and the men
with the sheap sought pastures new.
The sheep ought to have been as
sessed last year in this county, but
for some unknown reason, to us,
they were not, and Lyon simply
lost that much revenue. The own
ers of sheep, who own land in Ma
son Valley are not kicking about
the law. In fact Mr.. Miller, a
large land owner in the Valley,
says the law is the best one that
has ever been passed. He is a
large owner of sheep in California,
Oregon and elsewhere, and says he
would be glad to pay just such a
tax in those States as the sheep
men are compelled to pay in Neva-
da Cor rather, are not compelled to
pay In Lyon county
1t is not supposed that a general
law for the entire State can be made
that some communities would not
have a grievance against The OBJ
ject of making laws of this kind is
to see that each individ ual and
each industry pays its just proper
ton of revenue for support of the
government. Neither is it sup
posed that officers of the law will
allow one class to escape just tax
alton because of bis friendship to
this class on political grounds or
otherwise.
From the simple reason that
there has been no license collected
under this law, and therefore no
hardships (if it can be called such
to pay Just tax) has been worked
upon the sheep men, Of Lyon coun-
ty, it must appear quite plain to
all who will think the matter over
that the law is not responsible for
the sheep men leaving Mason Val
ley and going into Esmeralda
county to pay taxes.

ELECTIVE FRANCHISE.

We denounce the purchase and sale OF the
elective franchise as destructive of our liber-
ties and favor the strict enforcement at all
future elections OF the law passed at the last
session of the Legislature, known as The
Purity of Elections Law" and recommend
that all candidates for the legislature be re-
unired by their constituents to pledge them
selves against the repeal OF the law or any
modification that will impair its efficiency.
UNITED STATES SENATORS.
We are in favor of an amendment to the con-
stitution of the United States, providing for
the election of United States Senators by direct
vote of the people of their respective States.
UNITED STATES SENATORS AND MEMBER OF
CONGRESS.
The able and efficient serv ices of Senators
Stewart and Jones and Congressman NeWlands
in the Congress of the United States in behalf
of all interests that promote the welfare OF our
people are worthy of the endorsement II every
patriotic citizen OF the State. and we are In
favor of the election of Hon. John 2. Jones Tor
United States Senator.
Resolved That the Silver party was organized
for the purpose of securing he reconciliation
of silver and that We are opposed to any enort
to disorganize it until silver is remonetized.

HOW WILL YOU VOTEg

To determine the monetary ques-
tion in the election of 1896, the
party names which were used in the
past must not be allowed to inhuence
your vote: It is the question at
issue NOW which should determine
it. Most of us have attachments
for the party name under which
we have been enrolled, but we must
remember that in the past the
Democratic and the Republican
parties, in the selection Of candi-
dates for President and Vice Presi-
dent, have, unknown to us, been
dominated by the moneyed inter
ests, except in 1890 and 1884. and
then they re-secured their selfish
ends by defeating each time the
one who advocated Stable Prices
Stable Money.
In 1884 they defeated that SUI
perb statesman James G. Blaine
and elected Grover Cleveland Pres
ident of the United States-a man
pledged to the moneyed interests,
see history of his foregoing and
subse Quent acts. In 1896 the
moneyed interests are moving
heaven and earth to elect Napoleon
McKinley-a man pledged to de-
feat rising prices. 1t makes Lin
coin Republicans and Blaine Re-
publicans shudder to think that
the party which freed the slave and
saved the Union is now captured
by "the tories of 49," and that its
great name is now leveled against
the rights of all men except the
few who own the wealth of the
world: By the magic of old party
associations the INSCRIPTIONS mon
eyed interests are trying to draw
the votes of "the old guard" Of Lin
coin and of Blaine But as the
first gun at Fort Sumpter united
the Unionists on one side and the
is-Unionists on the other, so are
the guns of the political campaign
of 1896 grouping together on one
side the patriots opposed to an in
creasing measure of value, and on
the other side those bent on loot
and booty through continuing in
existence a shifting measure of
value. AS to which side will sue
coed we must bear in mind that
during the past twenty years the
measure of value has been doubled,
but as Napoleon met his Waterloo
and was banished to lone rock in
the ocean, SO, we hope, will the Ma
pnleons of Finance meet their Wa
terloo this year and be banished
from the White House and the
Halls of Congress. To accomplish
this, however, each man and woman
must fight the foe with as great
energy as was displayed by the
Unionists during the COS and by
our more early forefathers of rs.

GoD's little boy, who squeezes out
the Mason Valley Bladder in the
Yerington junk shop, is little
wrathy because he cannot secure
all the job printing to be done for
Lyon county and send it out OF the
county or State to be printed. Be-
cause we told him he lied when he
told Sheriff Littell that he would
print the tax list of Lyon county
he thinks he has found an opening
to talk about characters and other
things that some people have and
others have not. This matter both
ers us not. A liar has not much
use for o character, good or bad,
but that is neither here nor there.
The junk shop man told the Sheriff
he would print the tax list if he
was given the job. Now, to get at
the matter, we will bet him $40 that
he did not print it, 800 more that
he lied, and $40 more that we can
tell him where he did have it print
