GEN. REEDER RESIGNS
And Col. Lambert Is Appointed Sec-
rotary OF State of Pennsylvania.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Sept. S.-General
Frank Reeder. secretary of the common
wealth. to-day rendered his resignation to
Governor Hastings to take effect at once.
The Governor asked for Secretary Reed
er's resignation on Thursday.
Last Thursday the Governor sent re-
quest for Reeder's resignation, but gave no
reasons. General Reeder at once sent in his
resignation and after conference this
morning the Governor accepted it. There
are various conjecture as to why Secretary
Reeder was asked to resign, but the con-
sensus of opinion is that it was because he
was one of the signers of the indemnity
bend given the state treasurer for any loss
sustained in paying alleged legislative en-
ployeS.
Governor Hastings this evening rendered
the office of secretary of the common
wealth to COL James H. Lambert, at pres
ent insurance commissioner. Colonel Lam
bert asked for time to consider the matter
and consult with friends.

send-OR for Longstreet.
Chicago Post.

chicago POSt.
Wednesday noon--if he does not expire of
old age before that time-General Long
street will lead to the altar the beautiful
and accomplished-the phrase is not our
own-Miss Ellen Dortch, who is thirty-two
years old. The general is eighty and ex-
tremely hard Of hearing, a fact somewhat
disconcerting TO u.s. for although we have
often heard that love is blind this is the
first public declaration that love is deaf.
We do not know why General Longstreet
proposes to give hostages to fortune at
this time of life, but we presume that he
has been moved by Mrs. Charlotte Smiths
great public manifesto, and is fearful that
the ladies will prevent his appointment as
railway commissioner unless he proves his
entire, sympathy with the divine institution
of marriage by a sublime personal sacrifice.
Why Miss Dortch, barely out of her teens
and at once beautiful and accomplished,
should desire to wed a. gentleman of eighty
is beyond our knowledge, and, incidentally,
none of our business; but, as Sol Smith
Russell sings in one of his touching bal
lads, I'VE little know the female heart"
and, as the poet asks, WHO, who can
fathom woman's lover" General Long
street is undoubtedly a Hoo Hoo. We take
the liberty of congratulating the general
and of proffering to the fair bride our most
reSOe ctful SalutatiOnS.

THE SMOKE NUISANCE.
An Evil That should BE Abated in
Every City.
States Duty (St. Louise


Those who allow, without an effort to
suppress, the smoke nuisan e OF this city
are criminally negligent from day to day.
Strangers who visit the great cities of the
country annually on business or pleasure
shun st. Louis because the central parts of
the city are saturated with smoke, SCOT and
filth New buildings soon become dingy,
clothes are destroyed, health impaired,
property deprecated, people driven from in
stead of being brought to this great city
as permanent residents. In fact, the smoke
nuisance dons this a city of mourning in
stead OF sunshine There is no excuse for
such complaint People who willfully tres
pass on the rights Of thousands who are
helpless to prevent such trespass commit
criminal nuisance. Those engaged in large
manufacturing pursuits or other public
calling, who depend upon the people of this
city to buy all or part of their wares, in
jure their own business by continuing the
smoke nuisance. large number of mex
penSive smoke consumers are on the mar
ket. They can be applied either to the
chimney or furnace. There is no reason
able excuse why a war of determination
should not be waged until the smoke plague
is driven for all time from this splendid but
suffering and becIouded city.

Pittsburg Dispatch.

I 3 I1IspeItVII-
This is the week of the harvest moon.
The time when fair Luna, almost constant
for three days, fingers TO look down upon
the garnered grain-perchance upon more
sentimental things. The week of the har-
vest moon was formerly the time for the
harvest home festival when the reapers
and binders and all the countryside made
merry together. 1t has fallen somewhat
into desuetude in later years-been crowded
into the background by the more practical
county fair with it's artificial attractions.
Agriculture has been thrust into an age of
steam machinery, the agriculturist has
fallen into a hard haste that gives him
time for but one picnic q year, and so the
time that was erstwhile given to rejoicing
and thanksgiving has lately been devoted
to inspecting prize stock and improved ma
chinery, with possibly a bunco game here
and there.

New York Sun.
1t is historical fact of deep interest TO
all the friends of 16 to /, and most of all to
the Indiana Silver. League, certain mlscel-
laneous silver clubs and the Hon. Parks
M. Martin chairman Of the Indiana Demo
cratic state committee, that there was sill
yer conference in Indianapolis last week.
There were sixteen persons present, a num-
Der evidently appropriate and symbolical,
and an address was issued which draws
tears from your eyes as soon as they are
permitted to see it.. 1t is really affecting
and a passage which calls upon the people
to arise and shake off their shackles is d
masterpiece of silver pathos. We have
marked this passage for a second reading
on the 31st day of this month. Still, noble
a thing as it is to shake off shackles of any
kind, and especially noble to shake off
shackles of gold rivited by the Money
Power, it is no sort of weather for in
discriminate shaking off of shackles There
must be a cool, refreshing feeling about
gold shackles now. a breath of Alaska and
Klondike When the thermometer apollo
gizes and fall evicts the poacher summer,
there will be time to shake off shackles.
Until then, in the language of the Hon.
Artemus Ward, ''let 'em clank."

Shall Elko Have Reduction works9
Mr.. J. S. Loder of tho Pyritic Re-
duction Company Of Denver Colorado
has been in Elko for the past week,
quietly arranging his data, ahead of
making an extended trip through the
camps Of Elko county. to ascertain
their resources in ore, with the mind
to establish great smelling plant in
EIko OF north at Mountain City, as
the interest of his company may be
better served.
Mr.. Loder left Elko this morning
for Gold Creek as the first point, and
will be absent a week. about Mardis,
Gold Creek and Tennessee. His next
visit will be to Tusca cora and White.
Rock, and then for a month to Bullion
Bull Run and near by placers. 1t is
of the utmost Importance that the
mineral resources of our County
shall be properly pre- sented, ard on
Mr.. Loder's return all Interested,
should make a point of furnishing
data and facts respecting ores and
their their variety.
This is the 3rd time the INDEPEN
DENT has advised our people to be
alert to their interest and not permit
another camp to get the advantage of
Elko in smelter location. The estab-
hShment of such plant here means
an influx of people, the growth and
prosperity of our pretty city, the ex-
penditure of millions of collars in
nearby mine development, this as the
home of mining men and operators
1t means more in the breaking of the
power of the Central Pacific road to
rob enterprise of its fruit, to prevent
industry from profitable operation.
Elko will be the great station be
tween Den yer and San Francisco Elf
our people arouse to their opportun-
ity. Talk it over and see what wa
