THE SNOW ORDINANCE.
A cItizea who ;rhlnks There are Other,
TO Enforce.

A CItizen who Thinks There are Others
TO Enforce.
To the Editor OF tho Intclligencer.
sIR:-Please allow me to ask through
your columns. for what purpose the
board OF public works advertises Its In
tentIon to enforce certain ordinances
and continues to wink at their infringe
ment? a year or more ago It threaten
ed TO enforce the ordinance In regard TO
awnings, and obstructIng the sidewalks
with merchandise: yet nothing was
done. and 1t Is well known that there
are many awnings In the business part
OF the town under which man not
more than five feet four inches tall,
cannot walk without knocking his hat
of, unless he Stops, and almost every
day In the week passers-by must cross
over TO the north side OF Fourteenth
street II they want 10 go from Market
to Main streets.
And now comes this board OF public
works and threatens the people with
the enforcement OF the ordinance in
regard to clearing the sidewalks OF
snow and ice. Those OF us who always
obey this ordinance wonder why It is
not enforced In some notorious In
stances. One case will mention. as II
interests a good many law-abiding clti-
Zens. The pavement in front and on
the side Of the Peck property on the
corner Of Fourteenth and chapitne
streets Is never cleaned, either OF snow
or anything else, and Is constant dis
grace to those occupying the building,
and a nuisance to foot passengers.
There's job for you, most noble board
of public works.

Fourth Of July.

The members oi Harry Wilson Lodge
No. BIB, brotherhood Of Railway Train
men, have begun arrangements TO give
Il grand ball ON the night before the
Fourth. They have been working hard
earnestly and to good purpose. and the
magnitude Of the undertaking is some
thing to cause wonder.
They will erect il Herman's Grove
the largest summer pavilion ever bull
in Nevada.
They have arranged for Hastings
Brass Band OF l3 pieces, the best music
in the state.
The Southern Pacific Company has
said that free transportation from anv
point on the sygtem would he given to
its employees who desire to attend The
ball.
All railroads in the State viii give re-
duced rates.
The parties given by Harry Wilson
Lodge in the past have been magnificent
affairs and are known ali over the State.
This means that therf will be guests
to this ball from all points along the
road and from near ahd distant towns.
1t has been the case before, it will be SC
again.
The boys are sure that they will give
such "a grand ball as never has been
known in the historyof Nevada and they
will handle it in the same mastery man
ner they have before.
But they feel that something should
be done for entertainment on the Fouath
and that is the question now to be con-
sid, red.
They justly feel that the citizens
should take matters in hand at an early
late and arrange an entertainment for
the day to consist of field sports. =
They have asked the DISPATCH 10 bring
the mater up for discussion, and hence
this article.
We art, with the boys. We feel and
know that something in the line sug-
gested, should and must be done.
We hope the citizens will first discuss
matters between themselves as indi-
vidnals and a committee from Harry
Wilson Lodge appear before the citizens
in public meeting, that we may all ar
rive at some understanding. ,H

Here is a short lecture for the boys by

not in the footsteps OF the loafer and

the seats on the corner are all taken and
the whiting places are all occupied. 1t

Frank. the second son of T. V. Julien,
while prscticing on a horizontal bar at
his home last evening fell and broke
both bones OF his left arm near the wrist.
The little fellow did not whimper but
told his elder brother not to frighten his
mother, but to tell her there had been
an accident and he was slightly hurt.
His nose was bleeding and after stopping
it he went quietly into the house ard
told what had happened, being satisfied
by that time that his arm vas broken.
DIR. Phillips Vas called and set the arm
and the little fellow was made ae COM
Portable as possible. Frank took the
thing philosophically, simply remarking
that the arm was broken and that was
all there Was about it.-Journal.

neither ex-Gov. Dillingham; nor Cas-.

of delegate to St. Louis. Neither OF
these men desires the election. and
neither will stand as candidate. SO
there is, in the candidacy of any
other person. no ignoring such men
as Cassins Peck" or any other man.
The right not to be is as sacred as the
right to be a candidate for any office.

by year for the best interests Of the

their appreciation of Col. Kimball's
good citizenship by sending him to

Every true American rejoices over
the magnificent success of the latest
bond issue. The bids for the $780,
600, 900 of bonds were opened last
week, when it was found that the
amount had been over-subscribed
nearly six times, the exact amount of
the bids being 1865, 269, $50. The
Morgan syndicate bid for 800, O00,-
600 at ITO. 6S77 and secured S33,2ll,-
$50, the balance of SOC, iSs, $50 being
taken by various parties who bid
higher than the syndicate. The re-
suit shows the immense resources OF
this country and the splendid credit
of the government in spite of the
many attempts to impair it. 1t also
eflectually proves that public or popu-
lar loans are vastly more successful
than private deals like the last made
with the Morgan syndicate. I'm
doubleday much of the credit for the
success of this Issue is due to the New
York World and it will not be back
ward in claiming lis full share thereof.

Congressman Barrett of Massachu-
sets is attracting considerable atten-
tion for a new member. He cham
pioncd the resolution censuring Am
bassador Blyard and last week under
took to have Congressman Talbert OF
South Carolina censured for saying
in speech before the House that he
was not sorry for the part he took in
secession and under similar circum-
stances would do it again. Talbert
explained this utterance in way
satisfactory to most of the members,
but not to Barrett. The latter was
beaten and his resolution referred.
Many members who did not like
Talbert's speech hardly thought it inn
portant enough to warrant censurc.
Somehow Massachusetts, and South
Carolina are always running up
against each other.

How Silver Campaign Would Work

1t is obviously the intent of the free
silver majority in the Senate to play
| the dog in the manger. The House is
opposed to free coinage and so is the
| president. There is no hope of restor.
ing silver during this Congress. The
Senate admits all this yet its silver
majority peevishly nails free coinage
substitute onto every important meas.
ure that comes from the House, and
forces the defeat Of these bills, since ii
cannot even hope that the House and
the president will concur in any meas
ure however important, provision of
which is the free coinage OF silver.
There is some politics in it. The
bond bill and the tariff bill, both OF
which passed the House, are distaste-
full to some of the sound money Dem
ocrats in the Senate. These combine
with the silver Republicans in carry.
ing free coinage substitute, being
aware that this plan will kill the leg
islation to which they are opposed.
The silver majority in the Senate is
about seven. The house is overwhelming
ly arraycd against free coinage. The
Senate, being made up as it is Of two
members from each state, whether
large or small, is not correct index
OF the country's sentiment. Silver is
entrencbed in the Senate by means of
the rotten-borough system, under
which a sound money state like New
York has no larger representation
than deserted mining camp like Ne
vada. The House is apportioned ac-
cording to population and its man
dates ought to be of more force than
those of the Senate.
The silver question is still the Lead
ing issue before Congress, asst may be
before the country ere the year closes.
a state of affairs is easily observable
whereby it might become the only is
sue of the next campaign.
The Republican party is now i'm
bued with hope--and with good rca-
son. AT its national convention il
will have to formulate a platform.
That platform cannot ignore the silver
question. Not few far Western
states are Republican naturally, but
are now welded to silver idols. IF j
they are kept in the traces il must be
by some remote recognition Of the
claims of silver-we say remote be-
cause the mass Of the party will not
,olcrate anything more. The nomi-
