Washoe, and Wasnoe county brought
suit to compel the company to settle,
The lower Court gave the county a
Judgment and it vas appealed 70 the
Supreme Court, where the judgment
of the lower Court was sustained.
We trust that this lesson will not be
lost to the company, and that in Ihe
future it viii not seek to evade its just
share of the burdeCs Of taxation.

1t was so strongly Pntrfrchad that

This case demonstrates that il must
face the tax collector and settle in full

have saved the tax payers in general
a good deal if this state of affairs had
been in vogue twenty years ago.
Considering the fact that the people
have beer paying taxes for years to
pay the interest on its bonds, it comes
with bad grace for the corporation to
attempt to further distribute the
weight of its taxes upon the rest OF
the community.
One thing can be said to the credit
of the road. 1t has been ably mau-

IF TRUE

The Reno Gazette really should
st udy up on the financial question. To
a recent issue it said.
It is true the stamp Of our Government
makes A cents worth OF silver pass
for 100 cents it also made a scrap If
paper entirely without value it itself
pass for any amount the Government
might stamp thereon. Why? Simply
because that piece of paper or that
silver coin could be taken to the sub
treasury and exchange for as much
gold as its face called for.
Give US free coin age at The ratio Of
IL to l and take thu redemption in
gold from tehind the silver dollar,
and instead Of raising the value
of the worl - supply Of silver, the
white metal would seek its bullion
le vel, and We should have the greatest
panic that the world has yer known.
Does not the CARTE Know that
greenbacks are not redeemable in
gold any more than they are in silver?
Does it not know that silver is not
redeemable in gold?
Does it not know that there is no
redemption in gold behind the silver
dollar?
Does it not know tn at the sub-treas-
uIies can refuse to give gold for sill
yer whenever they want to, and that
they have done SO on many occasions
that the Sub-Treasury in California
did so last year? Where is the r.
demptioD? the Government tcco.
modates in changing money when il
feels like it, and refuse when hat dis.
position over it. To say thai
silver money in the United States
keeps its face value because you car
get gold fof it is just as sensible as il
would be to declare that gold money
maintains its face value because yo,
can get silver for it.
The silver money OF the United
States st ands on its w bottom an(
on the faith and credit Of this Nation
There is no gold nor anything els'

GOLD DEMOCRATS
Meeting in New York Of the
National Executive Com.
mittee.
Preparing to Carry on a Hot
Fight in Ohio, Kentucky
and Iowa.
IF Silver Men Win This Fall
There Is No Reason for
Their Existence.

NEW YORK, July 22.-Gold Democrats
trom all over the country have gathered
here to attend a special meeting OF the
executive committee Of the National
Democratic party to be held at the Of
fee of Chairman William D. Bynum.
Plans will be matured for continuing
the campaign of education among Dem.
ocrats. The principal points of attack
in sight are Ohio, Kentucky and Iowa,
where third state tickets will be put up
this fall. Colonel Halderman will ex-
plain the situation in Kentucky, and l..
NJ. Martin of Iowa is here to tell the
committee what is needed for the cams
paien in his state. From Ohio, Virgil
Kline, T. P. Linn and s. H. Holding
have come on to address the national
committee ON the requirements of their
state in the coming campaign.
1.-The meeting" said Chairman By.
mum, Twill, I think, demonstrate the
| fact that the fight for a restoration OF
Democratic principles is to 60 on harder
than ever. We expect to show in
elections, like those in Ohio, Kentucky
and Iowa, that we hold the
balance of power, and that it is impos.
sible for a so.called Democratic ticket to
win on a free silver platfoam. If it can
win after such q fight as we will make,
then there is no reason for the existence
of this movement, and we will go out
of business. It is our desire to conduct
a campaign of education in these and
other states and to put Democratic
speakers on the platform in every
county. This year there is no occasion
for Democrats to vote the Republican
ticket, because the danger that threat
ems the country is not SC great, and W
expect to poll a very large vote. An in
dication of what we may do was shown
In the Michigan election. There il
1896, Palmer only polled $500 votes
bnt a few months later the gold Demo
Gratis of Michigan polled over 5000
votes. We have had many importan
accessions to our ranks and we have no
lost a man."

ASTORIA, Or, July 22.-There is
trouble among the salmon fisheries on
the Columbia river. A few days ago,
when the canner decided to reduce the
price of fish to 3 cents a pound, the fish.

impression there would be no trouble.
But trouble of a serious nature has
broken out. Late at night, between 800
and 500 armed men sailed over Bakers
bay, which is q veritable net work Of
fish traps, destroying offensive gear.
Every trap they came to was rendered
useless. From reports, property valued
at from $4,000 to $4,000 was de.
stroyed. It is said to be the object OF
the men to remove all the traps in the
river and force the Gamers. to pay the
price asked, which is 5 cents.
