THE PEOPLES FAULT.

Nominating Convention Should inquire
into the Antecedents of Candidates.
Commenting upon the report that Chief
Justice Bigelow intends to leave the State
at the expiration of his term of Office in
January next and the assertion Of the Elko
Independent that it was ever thus with the
majority of those who have acted as Justice
OF the Supreme Court, the Carson Appeal
says:
1t 10 the fault of the people if these
things occur. No man can be blamed for &C.
ceptIng nomination if he can get it, and
drawing fat salary if elected. Nomina.
ting conventions should inquire a little into
the kind of men who are asking for Office.
Nevada should see that the men who seek
office are taxpayers, property owners and
state developers, men who when their term
oil office expires could not pack grip sack
and get out on ten days notice. Men who
hold fat offices should put some of their sal.
aries into building up the State, making
more taxable property and improving what
they already own. When a man gets IN
before state convention and asks for a
nomination, he should be called on to tell
what he has done for the State and give
some account of his stewardship as a cit.
izen,'
Why this complaint about Judge Bigelow?
Is he not, in preparing to leave the State,
following the rule laid down by the Repub
licans when the State was admitted into the
Union and strictly adhered to ever sincey
II. G. Blaisdell, the first governor elected in
Nevada, was only constructively resident
OF the State, and he left after the expiration
OF his second term of office. Chief Justices
Lewis and Beatty both left the State when
their terms of office expired. Who, outside
OF railroad circles at Carson, ever heard of
H. X. Colcord until the Republicans to, k
him up and made him governor, vet he is
the only Republican ex.ofice holder who re.
NAMED in Nevada after his term Of Office ex.
PRED. The soil of Nevada was not good
enough for the remains of one Republican
governor, and nearly every state officer
elected by the party left the State when he
left Office.
Men have right, whether they hold Office
or not, to go where they think they can bet.
ter their condition. Under the gold stand.
ard policy Nevada has few inducements for
ex Office holders and the strange part of it
is that Judge Bigelow. who favored the con.
tinuance of that policy and told us it is good
for us, should arrange to leave the State the
moment the people cease to pay him 5000
year for remaining here.

Sad Accident.

Bradley Abel, an aged farmer living near
Elsie, was accidently shot in the temple
Monday and has slight prospects for re-
covery.
Mr.. Abel had been to Elsie and was turn
ing out his horses when the ball struck him.
He fell but struggled to his feet and stag
gered toward the house telling his wife, who
met him, that something had come over
him. lie was not fully conscious and did
not realize that he had been shot. Drs.
Way and Travis, of Elsie, were both called
and both probed for the ball but were un-
able to find it, and as 1t had lodged very
near the brain they were obliged to give up,
and gave no assurance of hope for recovery.
The shooting evidently was the careless
work of some boys from Elsie, who had
goue up the Maple river and were shooting
across the river al mud turtles or whatever
appeared in sight. One recklessly high
shot will probably prove to be messenger
of death.
His sons Calvin, Gustave and John @.
and daughter, Mrs. c. A. Perry, all of
whom reside in this city, took the evening
train for Elsie and have remained with theil
father since.

Death of lanes A. Chaplin.

No one who saw James A. Chaplin in the
city last Saturday, would ever even have
suspected that In less than twenty-four
hours he would be lying at deaths door, as
he had every appearance of health and
strength. Sunday forenoon he also ap-
peared 20 be in his usual health and about
noon went out to the barn. Though he was
gone longer than usual, his daughters
thought nothing of 1t except to suppose that
he was resting in the shade of some of the
trees. Mrs. Chaplin was attending Sunday
school. Finally, however, his daughters
became alarmed and started out to see what
was the matter. On going to the barn they
found him entirely helpless, suffering from
a stroke of apoplexy. They secured help
and carried him to the house, but he lost
consciousness before reaching the house and
did not regain it before his death.
Mr.. Chaplin was sixty-two years old and
had lived in this county over thirty years,
during about five of which he lived in
this city. He was republican and had

The New Silver Certificates.

The new one dollar silver certificates are
now out and The Citizens Savings Bank, of
this city, received fifty of them on Satur-
day. The two dollar certificates will also
be out soon. The one dollar certificates are
by far the handsomest and most artistic
bills ever sent out by the government and
were shown with considerable pride by the
banks officers. The design for the series is
the work of w. Ii. Low, the designer of the
Worlds Fair diplomas. The center of the
note is taken up with a picture represent
ing History instructing Youth. History is
represented by reclining female figure
With one arm resting upon youth, while
the other directs his attention to the scenes
about the capitol and the broad Potomac
beyond. The margin of the note is made
up of laurel wreaths, in the midst of which
are over score of names of famous Ameri-
cans, comprising poets and literary men, as
we'll as statesmen and soldiers. The back
of the note is also quite unique and con-
veys very pleasing, artistic effect. The
portraits of Washington and his wife are
there, but rest upon background of lathe
work, which is supplemented by many
neurological figures.
