THERE is law on the Statutes
of this State which every newspa-
per published in Nevada should
demand to have repealed. This
law is termed the 'Purity of Elec-
ton Law" but it is the worst per-
jury breeding piece of legislation
ever passed by body of sane men.
There is not a candidate who is
seeking Office to-day who can make
his canvass and keep within the
limit of expense prescribed by this
law, and when they come to make
affidavit that they have done so
they simply perjure themselves.
The law was passed in the interest
of few men who now get behind
it to avoid paying legitimate cam
paign expenses. Now is the time
that the newspaper men should
stir themselves. A legislative tick
ct is to be elected in each county
next month, and the newspapers
should refuse to support any legis-
lative aspirant who will not pledge
himself to use his influence and
vote against this obnoxious law.
Two years ago the Press Association
asked for the repeal of this law,
but the Silver Party solons proba-
bly, ignored the request for the same
reasons that they passed bill to
reduce legal advertising rates and
also tried to knock out the Union
label law. There is no wonder that
there is only one Silver Party news
paper left in Elko county; the won
der is that there is a Silver Party
newspaper allowed to exist in the
State. Good Lord, deliver us from
our friends.

A COLORADO volunteer, recently
returned home from the South, died
the other day from fever and star
walton, and his last request was
that he be not buried in his army
clothes, nor that any demonstration
be made to show that he was SOL
der. When it comes to such a pass
as this-when a soldier is ashamed
to acknowledge that he has been a
soldier-there is something wrong
in the management of affairs. From
all accounts of late Uncle Sam has
treated his men. or allowed them to
be treated as bad, if not worse, than
the Spanish government treated its
enemies in Cuba.

FOR GOLD ONLY.

The attention of Nevada Repub-
licans who pretend to believe that
their party is for silver, is especial
ly called to the platform of the
Michigan and Washington Repub-
licans. The people of Nevada are
assured that if anything is ever
done for silver it will be by the Re-
publican party. Now come the Re-
publicans of Michigan and say;
We reaffirm the principles of the
St. Louis platform and pledge them
our support as sure guarantee OF
national prosperity and honor. We
stand upon the existing gold stan
dard, and condemn the proposition
to admit silver to free and unlimit-
ed coinage at the ratio of 16 to 1 by
this country alone.
Now also come the Republicans
of the State of Washington and de-
clare as follows:
We favor the existing gold stand
ard and oppose the free and un-
limited coinage of silver.
1t is in order to explain how a
party which is almost daily declar-
ing for the existing gold standard"
and denounding free silver coinage
can be expected to do anything for
silver.--Appeal.

REAL ESTATE DEAL MADE.

Involves $4,000 of VaIdOsta Proper
ty-Other Items of Interest.
valdosta, Ca, Nov. lone of the most
important real estate deals that has oc-
CURED here inasome time was that by
which several residences and a lot passed
from Mr. David Thomas to the ownership
of Cook & McAlpin 1t is understood that
The sale represents an outlay of about
$4,000 and may involve the construction
OF a large hotel here, as it is understood
that the buyers of the property are large
ly interested in such a movement. The
houses bought are four structures on Hill
avenue and Stevens street, including the
new home which Mr.. Thomas built a year
or so ago 1t is said that plans for the
new building have been made and that
capitalists in Canada and the East are in
terested in the new project.
Work upon the Atlantic, Valdosta and
Western Railroad is now going on inside
of the city limits and the work is being
pushed very rapidly. The road will be
completed to this city in a month or so
and movement is on foot to celebrate
the occasion with a great jubilee.
The death of Aline Davis, the 9-year-old
daughter of Mrs. Perry Davis, on Thurs
day. was an unusually sad one. 1t was
the second death that had occurred in that
family in the past four weeks, an older
daughter having died about the time Aline
was taken i'll. The family resided in the
upper part of the country, and moved here
on account of health conditions, several
members having been taken with typhoid
fever before they came to Valdosta- Two
other members of the family are danger
ously i'll, but have improved some in the
past few days.
Mr.. Joseph Dasher a prominent young
business man here, was married on Thurs
day 70 Miss Bessie Hightower, the cere-
mons being performed quietly at the res
idence of the brides mother
1t is understood that the Plant System
intends TO pave Savannah avenue with
Florida rock and deed the street to the
city. The street has been used as pub
lie thoroughfare for years, but belongs
to the railroad. BY deciding the street to
the city the road would be relieved of
that much taxes.

ONE MAN is A REGIMENT.
Peculiar Dilemma of Sergt. Clutch of
Philadelphia.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Secretary Alger has ordered the Third
Pennsylvania Regiment to be retained for
garrison duty in Cuba. If the mandate Of
the secretary is to be carried out to the
letter. Sergt. Robert NJ. Clutch, in all his
solitary and regimental dignity, will en-
bark for the Pearl of the Antilles and
there guard and fight perhaps for the
honor of Uncle Sam. Sergt. Clutch is the
Third Regiment All the life and exist
once Of this doughty Philadelphia organi-
cation is wrapped up in one man, who
occupies a unique position in the armies
of this great nation
MANY imagine that a regiment consists
Of colonel captains. and columns of
marching soldiers. 1t does usually, but in
this case things are different. There is a
colonel his name is Clutch; there is a cap
tain also Clutch, and so on down the
whole list il is Clutch, from the glory of
fhe shoulder straps to the apron of the
humble but necessary cook History tells
Of mon Young in years who have mar
sbaled the armies OF nations and by their
military prowess changed the destiny of
enonires. but none of them Napoleon in
Guided ever was a regiment himself.
This strange condition of things came
about as follows: Last week the colonel,
staff line officers, and men of the Third
Regiment. on furlough in Philadelphia,
were formally mustered out of the service
of the United States-that is, except one.
This was Sergt. Clutch, who at the pres
emf writing is still a soldier and a regi-
ment. too. The sergeant was absent from
philadelphia and could not be mustered
ont with his command, Company A. He
arrived in town late on Friday night. and
arrangements we're not made to have him
Iaa,,e the service The rest of the erst-
while bows in blue are parading around in
newest store clothes, but the gallant SER
geant is alone entitled to wear the blue
blouse and jaunty campaign hat. Satur-
Az afternoon an order was sent from
me war department 20 Philadelphia that
he second and Third Regiments were to
he retained, instead Of the Fourteenth and
Fifteenth. now at Camp Meade. The Sec
ond was stilI intact. but for the Third
me order came too late to affect the now
d,scbarged officers and men.
So the mantle of military glory falls on
the sergeant. He is the Third, and the
Third has been retained. IL he is dis
charged. It will be contrary TO the order
from Washington. and 50 he must mobilize
himself for further orders.

Denver Col, Nov 7.-While the Repub-
lican managers profess to be confident
of electing their entire state ticket, odds
of to 1 in favor of the fusion ticket find
few takers in the pool room.
The fusion managers figure on a ma
jority anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000. The
Republicans practically concede the cleo
ton of the fusion candidate for Congress,
John c. Bell, but expect to make a good
showing in the election of senators who
will vote for United States senator in 1901.
