A LOWER TARIFF.

The Republican tariff makers spent
a day considering the schedule OF man.
ufactures Of iron and steel. The com.
mittee decided tentatively to put the
rate on nails at about one-fourth the
Mckinley rates, and to make 10 specl.
tc. Even the Wilson rates on nails
were, Ia the minds OF the committee,
practically prohlbitiye, and majority
OF the Republicans expressed the
opinion that nails ca n be made so
cheaply In the Eastern states that
duty Ia unnecessary. The Pacific
coast, however, on account OF foreign
competition, seemed to need protection
aud the duty agreed upon win be for
the benefit Of the coast.
The Mckinley program ia TO stake
all upon a revision Of the tarlff at an
extra session OF congress- as the sur
st means OF restoring prosperity. In
be mean time, while waiting for 1t 10
.ome, we advise people TO put out
gardens, saw their own wood, white
wash instead OF paint, and make rag
carpets and everything else instead OF |
buying until the prosperity arrives.

Secretary Of State Howell has dug
up the law and discovered that the
soldiers from this state now in Cali
fornia are entitled to vote. The
statutes have the following. The
right of suffrage shall be enjoyed by
all persons, otherwise entitled to
the same, who may be in the mill
tary or naval service of the United
States; provided the voters shall be
made to apply to the county and
township of which said voters were
bona tida residents at the time OF
their enlistment; and provided fur
ther that the payment of poll tax
or a registration of such voters
shall not be required as a right to
vote. Secretary Howell has for
warded the necessary blanks to hold
the election to San Francisco ani
has also ordered ballots for th,
voters. There should be about II
voters in the company.

The White Pine News has chang

and fell to the floor in a state of
complete collapse. The remains
were on exhibition next day to dis
appointed subscribers, but there
were only two chief mourners who
oficiated at the funeral and per-
formed the sarvice, which by the
way was Scriptural in language but
We cannot refer you to the exact
chapter and verse. Perhaps it is
well that life of the deceased was
brief as it is hard to predict what
yicissitudes it might have had to en-
counter if it had been exposed to the
power of the press. We regret to
add that We have positive informa-

Every man who wants VIM. M.
Stewart sent back to the United

should vote for the Silver Party
assemblyman next Tuesday. The
Silver Party is the only party who
announces itself fatfooted for Sena-

pose as silver men, and as matter
of fact could not hope to be elected
if they professed to do anything else,
but none of them are openly COM
mitted TO Senator Stewards election
and that is the point to consider.

After the RECORD registered it's
kick last week because the voters
names were not printed this year as
usual the talk became so general
that the MESSENGER, as the county
paper was waited on by the District
Attorney who happened to be in
town, Commissioner Simpson, the
Pioche Registry agent and some
others, and got move on itself and
began printing the names on slips
for posting, and SO doing something
for the $50 a month it is getting
from the county.
After the matter was settled one
of the registry agents remarked to
the RECORD man We never had
any trouble of this kind when the
RECORD and LODE did the work.
What's the m liter, has the law been
changed2 He was Informed that the
law was the same but that this rep
resented political reform.
Another citizen remarked that the
REcoRD's kick had done good work,
as without it the names would moi
have been printed at all.

manded extra pay for the work,
though it is contract work and al

Believes in LlcnoIn County

On the return to Reno of Eugene
Howell and Dave Ryan from their
recent trip to this section. the Reno
Journal man captured the pair and
quotes us follows: Eugene Howell,
Secretary of State, reports Lincoln as
being one of the best and most pros
porous counties in the State. A rail-
road from Milford to Phoebe is now
under progress of construction and
when completed will open up vast
mineral country. He says DeLamar
is a town of 1900 people and lighted
with electricity throughout and has
the appearance of live go-ahead
city. The DeLamar mine is one of
the greatest ever opened up in the
west and has one of the most improv-
ed cyanide plants in the country
The April Fool mine adjoining the
DeLamar mines is also very valu.
able and extensive property and bids
fair to be one of the great wealth pro,
ducers of Nevada. The agricultural
communities are prosperous, the
mines affording ready market fol
their products. The southern par
of the county is semi-tropical anc
fruits of nearly every kind are raised
in abundance also tobacco and cot
ton. Lincoln county promises to b.
in the near future. one Of the great
est mining and agricultural center
in the western country.

Is there any connection between
the apparent change in the policy
of the Utah 4 Pacific in creeping
forward as slowly with its road as
at present, and the fact that Lincoln
County whose eastern border they at
first proposed to reach by January
next, has a large and burdensome
debt hanging over it?
Not few think there is, and that
legislation will be asked by the road
which will prevent its being prac-
tically held up by the holders of the
heavy judgment against the county.
These holders reside in San Frarcis-
co and for the most part believe, or
affect to believe they will ultimately
realize dollar for dollar on their hold
ings.
II their attitude becomes too arbi-
trary. it is not beyond reasonable
possibility that the road viii build
around, instead of across our county.
A gentleman who is believed TO be
interested directly in the Utab 4
Pacific enterprise expressed himself
to this effect recently. Said he
eve know that the people generally
want the road, and recognize too
that the county is unable to extend
us any material aid in the way of
cash bonds, such as is frequently
done; but if there is any danger that
the scounty,s resentindebtedness will
be forced upon our 8 oulders, we
can, and probably will change our
route and go south to the Rio Virgin
and into Arizona, strike the Atlantic
Il Pacific road, and thus go around,
and not across Lincoln County.
The route is about as feasible as that
already selected, and possesses
about as many natural resources to
develop.
Legislation of some character in
relation to this will be asked at the
coming session, and this is one of the
most important reasons why our
representative in the Assembly this
winter should be a man who has
had experience and is acquainted
with our present financial situation,
and the conditions and reasons
which brought it about, SO as to pro-
tect the peoples interests on the
one hand, while doing the fair thing
by those who may ask aid on the
other.

PLATFORM.

The Silver Party Of Nevada pledges its un-
wav. ring devotion to the prime. pie Of govern
ment aid down by Jefferson and Lincoln:
That tn highest duty of government is to SO
regulate its laws that the spirit Of equality
shall follow men through life, giving each amp
lest opportunity to work out to the fullest
measure his possibilities unrestricted by law,
and unhffiicted by the conquest of his domin
ion CT opportun ty by other men. We indorse.
as expressing the demands of the American
people in consonance with the foregoing, the
platform of the National Silver party formu-
lated q st. Louis, July %, 1886, and the finan-
cisl plank of the National Democratic party
adopted at Chicago, July 7, s96.
The history of the movement for the restora-
ton of bimetallism is the glorious story of Ne
vsda's leadership. The educational work so
p,triutically undertaken six years ago has
spread throughout the entire country. On the
issue that the value of money Is quant1tative
and not qualita i've, the intellectual and politi-
cal forces Of nations are now battling. Mind
full of her glorious record Nevada will take her
place again in the conflict, not as the ally OF
Gold, but ON the side Of those who struggle in
the fields OF adversely.
We reaifirm our devotion to the free and un-
limited coinage Of silver at the ratio of l6 to
by the Independent action Of the United States
and we are una terably opposed to the Repub
hcan policy of increasing the bonded debt; Of
transferring the sovereign power Of the gov
ernment to issue money to banking institu
tions: of contracting the circulating medium
TO the single gold standard, and of increasing
taxation while contraction is diminishing tn,
! means Of payment.
| Our faith in the loyalty. ability and wise lead
! ersiiip of William ]. Bryan Is undiminished
and we edict for the silver forces Of the Uni
{ 4 States. with 10 TO l as their motto, ant
William j. Bryan as their standard bearer, al
overwhelming victory in l900
We invite the cooperation Of the Republics,
/ party of Nevada who declared in their plat
! form of May 70, Is 0, as follows:
RESOLVED That the Republican party o
this state Is in favor of free and unlimited coin
age OF both gold and silver; that it holds to thi
principle as tenet of party faith and q test o
party allegiance; that II viii permit Of n
abandonment or modification of this doctrine
that let whosoever prove recreant TO the prir
ciple of bimetallism 1t win remain steadfas
thereto"
And who on May Q, lsee, ct Virginia City, d.
clared as follows:
I'VE again reiterate our steadfast devotio
to the cause Of the free and unlimited coinag
Of silver. and declare that in our Judgment th

Our Smaller Colleges.

There are a few striking facts about
the small American college," writes Ed
ward w. Box in the Ladies' Home Journal.
"One striking fact Is that 60 per cent OF
the brainiest Americans who have risen
to prominence and success ere graduates
of colleges whose are scarcely
known outside OF their own States. II Is
a fact, also, that during the past ten years
the majority ofthe new and best methods
of learning have emanated from the
smaller colleges, and have been adopted
later by the larger ones. Because a college
happens to be unknown two hundred
miles from the place of its location does
not always mean that the college Is not
worthy Of wider repute. The fact cannot
be disputed that the most direct teaching,
and necessarily the teaching most pro-
ductive of good results, is being done in
the smaller American colleges. The names
of these colleges may not be familiar to
the majority Of people. but that makes
thom none the less worthy places Of
learning. The larger colleges are I'M
questionably good. Butthere are smaller
colleges just as good, and, in some re-
spects, better. Some of the finest educa-
tors we have are attached to the faculties
Of the smaller institutions of learning.
Young girls or young men who are being
educated at one Of the smaller colleges
need never feel that the fact of the college
being q small one places them at a disad-
vantage in comparison with the friend or
companion who has been sent to q larger
and better-known college. It Is not the
college; it Is the student"
