Ballot reform in New York was nee
essary, says an eminent jurist, be-
cause mere politicians by trade, who
had no interest in government or poll
tics except to enrich and aegrandize
themselves, sought perpetual control.
There are other excellent reforms be-
sides that of the ballot. Conspicuous
among them is the reform in disor-
dered physical system by Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which counteracts
tendencies to serious disease bred by q
deficiency of Vital stamina, Irregular
ity OF the bowels. stomach, liver and
kidneys, and the inquietude of the
nerves. This sterling medicine, which
has for near half century won popu-
lar favor, not only for it's excellent
qualities in remedial capacity, but
also for its servicesble proper ties as a
medicinal stimulant.

The poorest girls are those who are
not taught to work. Rich parents
have petted them, and they have been
taught to despise labor, and possibly
to look upon working woman as be-
longing to lower order, and have
been accustomed to depend upon
others for living and are perfectly
helpless. The most forlorn women
belong to this class. 1t is the duty of
parents to protect their daughters
from this deplorable condition. A
great wrong is done to them il they
neglect it. Girls should be taught to
earn their living. The wheels OF for
tune roll swiftly round; and the rich
are likely to become poor, and the
poor rich. Skill added to labor is no
disadvantage to rich and indispensable
TO poor. Well-to-do parents must
educate their daughters to work-no
reform is more imperative than this.

Nothing Made by Kicking.

An exchange gets off a good thing
when il says that no man ever raised
himself permanently by kicking some
one else down. Be ready to give a
kind word, give it literally; it won't
cost you cent and you may need one
yourself some day. You may be roll
ing In wealth to-day and raising
whiskers tomorrow, because you can't
raise the price OF a shave. So, don't
kick; you can't afford it. There is
nothing in it whatever. Ii you want
to throw something at somebody,
throw roses, boquets or cologne. Don't
throw and don't kick. However, ii
you must kick, lead yourself around
behind the smokehouse and take a
good kick at yourself.

From the Department Of the Interior
the SENTINEL has received q chart Of the
mineral products OF the United States
for the years from 1883 to 1898. They
increased from $54O. ISL. 936 in 1888 to
s632, 3l2, BAT in 1898. though through
that time the prices fell on many staple
articles from 20 per cent upward. Thus
pig iron in 1888 was worth triHe less
than $40 per ton. In 1883 6,4s9. 1888
tons brought sll. .s77.70l more than So
652.6 $50 did in 1879. Running down
the list il will be seen that the rule OF
decrease in value applies to every other
one Of the ffty-eight products named
except gold. The fall represents how
much che purchasing power Of gold has
incrsased in the ten years.

ABOUT DAVE RYAN.
A short History Of the silver Party
Candidate for state Treasurer.

A short History Of the silver Party
Candidate for state Treasurer.
From the Virginia City Report of Sept. 2o.I
In selecting Dave Ryan for the position
Of State Treasurer OF Nevada the Silver
Party Convention chose one Of the very
few men in the State who could be de-
pended upon to administer that respon-
able Office efficiently and with credit both
10 the State and its officer. A mans past
record Is the only safe guarantee Of his
future performances and the two terms
which be has filled the Office Of County
CLERK and Treasurer Of Storey give . tes-
simonisl Of his honesty and ability that
cannot be improved upon.
Mr.. Ryan was born in New York. but
has resided on the Pacific Coast from boy
hood up, and received his education In the
public schools and business colleges OF
California. Leaving school be became
city collector and assistant bookkeeper In
the wholesale grocery house Of Milliken
Bros. Of San Francisco. Forced by Ill
health to seek employment elsewhere, he
resigned that position and came to Neva-
da, where he has made his home for the
past twenty years. filling many respon.
sible positions. until he finally engaged In
business for himself in 1886, when he en-
tered the stock brokerage business with
A. j. Mcdonnell, which business they
still continue both in Virginia City and
San Francisco. Mr.. Ryan lie also . mem.
Der Of the merchan disc firm Of Ryan d
Stenson OF Virginia and Nevada City. He
owes his business success TO his own en-
ergy, perseverance and oapabilisy.
Four years ago he was chosen TO fll the
responsible office OF County Treasurer, Q
duty he so we'll performed that he re-
ceived q denomination at the hands Of his
party two years ago and received 9 testi-
monial OF the confidence and regard Of the
public in the shape Of reelection. Dur
ing his incumbency OF that Office he has
done many acts OF unostentatious charity
and has in innumerable cases paid the de-
linquent taxes OF unfortunate household
ers.
Four years ago when not in Office be
cAshed between So. 900 and $4,000 worth OF
county scrip. issued to pay the judges
and clerks OF election, the treasury being
empty. By doing this he kept some war
rant shaver from making some s400 or
$500, but he rendered q material service
to men who needed IL. and to do so wss
willing to wait months for the return OF
his money when the taxes came in.
Mr. Ryan's chief characteristics during
his career In public life have been his nm
impsschsble integrity and his unswerving
fidelity 10 his word. His ability as an ex
pert accountant, which safeguards him
against possible mistakes or malfeasance
on the part Of subordinate, and his own
reputation for strict and unimpeachable
honesty. both as a county official and
business man, should entitle him to g
majority OF the votes Of the taxpayers OF
the State at the Novem Der election for the
Office Of State Treasurer.
