MUST BE

The Winnemucca Advocate takes
the ElkO Demo: Gratis to task for advO-
eating the nomination of a straight
Democratic ticket, and asks If they
are more concerned in Office seeking
than in the silver cause. We cannot
W where the silver cause will be
benefited by permitting the Silver
party to run the whole tickle: to the
exclusion of the Democrats. Nor
a we see how tine Democrats can
maintain their party organic .tion in
any other way than by nominating
men for Office. We have repeatedly
stated 'hn' we are not personally i'll
terested i'll the candidacy OF any man
or set of men for any posi- ion within
the gift Of the people, but at the SAINT
time we are desIrOus Of seeing the
Democrats get d full share in the
distribution OF the offices under the
fusion plan not foT the Office or the
individuals who will secure them, but
from the fact that we consider it alb
solutely necessary that there should
be a Democratic ticket run in the
State this year. We have never seen
any necessity for maintaining the
Silver party organization other than
those who agreed on lie one question
and disagreed us to others. But we
never contemplated the idea of totally
abandon ny the Democratic party III
the State and permitting the Silver
party to nominate the entire ticket,
or even to permit them to say what
part OF the ticket should be conceded
to tile Democrats and then run them
under the Silver party name. In the
light OF the National standing Of the
two parties this would partake too
much of the proposition of the tail
wagging the dog.
In looking owe our State ex-
changes and FROM private advices we
note that there are from two to five
candidates for every State position,
and almost without exception they
announce themselves as seeking the
nomination before the Silver party
convention. This naturally leads. us
to wonder what will be left for the
Democrats. No doubt this condition
OF affairs is brought about by a de-
sire on the part Of the aspirante to be
on tn" winning ticket. Neither do
we doubt but that many of them
would now be equally rs ciamorous
tor a position Oh the Republican
ticket we're that party in the ascen-
dency.
Some have commended that the time
il not ripe for disbanding the Silver
party. This may be so from a Re-
publican punt OF view, but to those
who have accepted the declarations
Of the Chicago platform as genuine,
and who believe that the machinery
OF The Silver party is to be used mere
ly for the purpose Of Inducing into
soft Jobs u lot OF hungry Office seek
ers, 1t wonld appear that it has gone
beyond the ripenlng period and is
rapidly approaching the stage Of de-
composition.
Taking this view of it, the Demo.
Gratis are justified in declaring for a
clean, straight ticket, and demanding
that recognition which their position
rs the only simon pure National Sill
yer party clearly entitle them .--Times

CONvICTs MAKE BOGUS MONEY.
Their Plant Discovered I'm California
State Prison.

FOLSOM, Cal, March s11-A counter
feiting plant has been discovered within
the walls of the state prison. The work
was done In the engine room by convicts
l.. H. Coyne and James Brown, and SO
far as Known only nickels were coined,
presumably because no silver could be OBJ
tanned. The men were detected in the act
of manufacturing bogus coins by guards
who had been told of what was going on.
When the officers rushed in Coyne and
Brown feaped through a window and threw
their dies and crusibles into a canal lead
Ing to the American river.
A large number of well-executed scent
pieces were found. They were made from
Babbitt metal taken from the engines
which run through the prison grounds for
the purpose Of hauling rock from the
quarries. 1t is thought that the dies or
molds were not made bys the men who
coined the money, but by fome OF the ex-
rert counterfeiters in the prison.
The impression prevails among the Off
GERS that it was the intenfion Of the con-
victs to coin great quantity Of ntckels
and then ship them out son the freight
cars. where their friends SON the outside
could give them in exchange for opium.
Several Of the bogus coins have been found
in circulation in the town Of Folsom

with which the American navy is still sup
piled. This obstacle Is serious, but not in
surmountable. 1t will require the procure
ment in Europe of a large quantity Of am

our domestic ammunition makers to change
their plants and make the special sizes.
Torpedo Boats to BE Accepted.

the usual formalities in the case Of the
torpedo boats Gwin and Talbot, and has
directed their immediate acceptance for the
use Of the naval service. These vessels
were built by the Herreshoffs of Bristol
r. l.. under contract with the government
and were tested as to speed and general
seaworthiness over the Newport course
They each exceeded their contract speed

tract. 1t is said they can be put in condi-
ton for active service within a few weeks

It Is felt that the needs Of Japan are quite

PRESIDENT HYDE DYING.
Equitable Assurance Director At
fIcted with Heart Trouble.

hActcu WIN hSaft trouble
NEW YORK, Nov. 7-Henry B..
Hyde, president of the Equitable Life
Assurance society, and the most widely
known man in the life insurance bust
ness in the world, is dying at his home,
8 East Fortieth street. He is said to
be suffering from heart trouble in an
aggravated form and little hope is held
out for his recovery.
MIR. Hyde was born about sixty-five
years ago in the Catsl1ills and in his
early youth he manifested the traits Of
leadership that have distinguished his
conduct of the Equitable Life, which Is
the child Of his brain. He draws
salary Of $780, 900 a year. probably the
largest paid to amy business man In
the United States, If not in the world.
The connection of Mr.. Hyde with the
insurance business in this city was in
augurated when, many years ago, he
was installed as cashier Of the Mutual
Life Insurance company. He was am
bilious and formed the plan of life
insurance company of his own. He ask
ed President Winston, of the Mutual
Life, for assistance, was refused and
went about laying the foundation OF
the Equitable Life Assurance society
himself. The success of the enterprise
by reason of his shrewd management
has been phenomenal. Many Of the
largest financial deals In the invest.
merit of insurance funds ever made
were manipulated by him.
