WAR, OR NO WARP

Mr.. Mckinley is still waiting to
see what the Spaniards are going to
do about his last message. They
have told him (those in authority
that they will not accept his terms,
still he says he has hopes of a peace
full settlement of the trouble. Now
it is reported that his message will
be sent to Congress next Monday,
and that it will be rouser. His
last one failed to mention the fact
that over two hundred sailors were
blown up and killed by the Maine
explosion, and it is just possible
that he may mention this fact in
his next message.
Lee is hustling Americans out Of
Cuba and will probably leave, HIM
self, to-day
Spain, it is reported, is going to
back down, but a Madrid dispath
of yesterday says the Spanish Cor
tez stands the same as when it re-
piled to McKinley's first message.
They will yield nothing, nor con-
cede anything.
Spain, we believe, wants a little
war. She is satisfied that she has
ost Cuba in any event. This takes
away good slice of her revenue,
and she is badly in debt. A war
would give her reasonable grounds
to repudiate her debts and be the
cheapest way for her to get out of
the hole.
We cannot see how this country
can get out of the scrape now,
honorably, without giving Spain a
good drubbing 1t may be honor
able to take pay for the lives lost
through Spanish treachery, but it
was not considered so in 1875, and
we had some people in that war,
and are still of their opinion.

HOW AND WHERE 1T STARTED

ting the old, worn out lie that the
Silver Party was conceived in the
Palace Hotel, in San Francisco by
the S. P corporation. We do not
believe that the papers which are
circulating such lie believe what
they say, for they we'll know that
the Silver Party started in. Dayton,
Lyon county, Nevada. The TIMES
has, heretofore made this assertion
and given the facts Of the organic
ing of the first silver league in the
State. 1t may do no harm to again
relate the circumstances, so that the
Silver Party papers in the State can
know Just where to hit the gold bugs
arguments that the party is the con-
ception of the S. P. r. r. Co.
On the 5th day of April, 1892, a
few Daytonites were discussing the
political situation, and denouncing
in no moderate terms the treatment
the Silver States had received from
both the Republican and Demo
cratic parties. In the crowd was
J. H. Rae, who declared that he be-
lieved the time had come for indie
pendent action on the silver ques-
ton. He proposed to circulate a
petition for signatures to that effect,
and was ridiculed by some and
urged to do so by others. The pc
tition was drawn up, however, that
day, and before night it was signed
by nine-tenths of the voters in Day
ton precinct, and inside of three
days there were but three men in
Dayton who had not signed the pc
tition. The petition declared for
free coinage of silver and pledged
the signers to vote for no man in
any party for any office who was
not known to have record in favor
of that move. Attached to the pc
tition was also a call for a mass
meeting to be held at the Court
House on Saturday evening, April
9th, 1892. This meeting was at
tended by everybody; the brass band
turned out, and a large transparency
bore the words "We know No Party,
We Demand Free Coinage" J. E.
Gignoux was chosen Chairman of
that meeting, and the writer of this
Secretary, and there, and then was
organized the first silver league in
the State of Nevada.
1t was not the purpose of the
league, at that time, to organize a
distinct party from the two old
parties as it was believed that the
point aimed at could be reached by
forcing either one or the other par
ty to give the people what was de-
manded. The public is aware of
how the Republican party was urged
to recognize the silver move and
threw it overheard, and how the
Democrats took it up, and how a
Republican majority of $50 to IT'S
was knocked out in Lyon county
and the Democratic Silver ticket
elected by majorities larger than
the Republican majorities had for
merly been. 1t is also aware of how
the move spread all over Nevada,
and how, afterwards Silver Party
was formed, which swept the State
These things the public knows we'll
but our gold bug friends (?) seem
to be DESTROYS of placing the credit
where it does not belong, while some
of the silver men are also desirou,
of taking the credit themselves fol-
being the sire of the party.
The Silver Party started in Day
ton, Lyon county, Nevada, and J
II. Rae was the father of it, and W,

Our New Terms.

We beg to call the attention of our
patrons to our new terms:
Recognizing that the credit system
mears much higher prices to the con-
snmer, we have revised the prices of
our goods and will now sell them on II
strictly cash basis.
Knowing, however, that it is an ac-
commodation to a large number of our
customers to settle their accounts
monthly, we will charge goods as usual
to prompt payers only, but accounts
for the preceding months purchases
must be paid when the bill is presented
While we are fully aware of the fact
that many OF our patrons are perfectly
good and that their accounts will be
paid in course of time, yet, suc, I'M
settled accounts will not replace the
stock taken out of our store, or enable
us to meet our obligations. Necessity
compels us to adopt this method of do.
ing business and it applies to all.
