he viewed the holding Of the Philip.

office seeking purposes and whose
sole contributions to the people of
the State are limited to the money
corruptly used to. secure their own
elections.
We recognize the Democratic MS
the only Silver party in the Nation,
and upon whose success in 1900 de-
pends the establishment OF silver
to its former place in the monetary
system Of the Republic We regard
all local political organizations, pro-
Tossing to favor bimetallis m. as not
only useless, but absolutely obstruct-
i've to the cause they pretend to fos-
ter. The so-called Silver party of
Nevada Is especially detrimental to
the silver interest. Its State Admin
istration IN the last few years has
been replete with scandals which are
a disgrace to the Commonwealth.
It's continued existence is an insult
to the great Silver party of the Ma
ton which i'll 1896 poIled nearly six
millions Of votes for the bi-metallic
couse, and its death would be mourn
ed only by few Office seekers who
have maintained it in the hope of be-
ing elected to positions which they
could not obtain from any other
party in the State.
Ne favor the election of United
States Senators by the people. in
stead of Legislatures. We believe
that Nevada has suffered more from
the present system than any other
State in the Union and we most earn
estly demand such change as will, to
partial extent at least. prevent the
gross frauds and corruption as has
and which is now prevailing in our
Senatorial elections.
The democratic party of Nevada is
in favor of utilizing and developing
the natural resources Of the State;
We, therefore advocate policy of
internal improvements by which the
surplus water of our rivers may be
impounded in reservoirs and used in
reclaimIng and irrigating the unoc-
cupied agricultural lands of the State
aud opening the same to settlement
and cultivation, thereby inducing
immigration for the development of
the agricultural products Of the State
and increase of our population, and
we, favor liberal legislation and the
appropriation OK State funds for such
purposes. ...
we demand that our National Gov
ernmeht hold possession Of the Phil.
ippine Islands. 80 that the products
and trade of these islands may be
brought to our shores, as such a pol
icy would result in great profit and
commercial advantages to the Paci-
fic Coast.
We moat earneatlv adviae the Dam
ocrats in every county in the State to
organize aud form County Central
Committees and to nominate fnn leg
islative tickets unpledged upon the
matter of U. s. Senator and to adopt
all means Of strengthening the Dem
ooratic party which will in 1900 rep
resent the honest and sincere silver
element in the state.

We agr,:e with Senator Teller, an

which furnished the corruption money

We furthermore declare without

any or all of the provisions of the in
famous law do not, directly or indi-

Another Indian Outrage.

AuVtuCI iuViou OutIokS.
 A few days rgo Samuel Fucker, we'll known cattleman of Blackberry. discovered the burned fragments Of two-hOrse wagon in ravine about ten miles southeast of Blackberry. The irOnwork of the wagon and harness had been covered with earth. Rains had uncovered part of the remains and by little exertion Mir. Rucker brought to light parts of the harness, wagon springs and iron. silver knives. forks and spoons and pieces of calico. Under a bush near by was found two revOlvers that had been through the fire. A few feet from the wagon was depression in the ground resembling a hastily made grave. Not having tools neces- sary to prosecute his investigation further, Mr. Fucker thought it best to notify the officers of his discovery. Under Sheriff Cohenour was told quite recently by an Indian that Indian Kate, Wallapai. who lives at Blackberry, had killed four white men, the bodies of two of whom had been found, but he was unable to state where the bodies of the other two were. He only knew that Kate had in his possession at one time two large American horses, which he took to Williamson valley and re- turned without. Our readers will re- member the finding of the remains of a man named Welch on the track a few miles east of Blackberry a few days ago. and at that time foul play was strongly suspected, but nothing was developed by investigation. The Indian alleges that the unfortunate man was killed by Kate. in Blackberry, his body placed on a horse and carried up the track sev-

THE COCONINO SUN.

American public by the manufacturers of shOddy goods, and the great wrong imposed upon the wool grower by their existence, and hoping the necessary efforts will soon be put in action, l find this an admirable place to close.
 HARRY FULTON.
The Coconino sun., 1898-02-26

dumping ground of the free wOOls of the world, the current rate is about p cents per loo pounds.
 While we cannot expect any very great change in relation to freight rates, there is an alarming evil of great and growing proportions confronting the wool growing industry which must be checked, as it is possible to do so. For our national government to enact certain requirements of the manufac- turers of shoddy goods should create as much talk from the wool growers land from the people for their own protec- tion as the tariff ever did. The census returns between the years 1880 and 1890 show the increase in sheep to be 9 per cent: in wool produced about 2 per cent: while the increase in shOddy manufactured for the same period was II per cent. Such a state of affairs is to be greatly deplOred and any legiti- mate steps taken to rectify present con. ditiOns. which seem to be almost firmly rooted, should be encouraged and has tened in its endeavOr to at least check the onward march of the manufacture of shoddy. l will venture the assertion that there are good many who would not buy sholdy if they knew it. and they should be protected in the pur- chase of the garment or cloth as the consumer is in the purchase of butter. In 1885 our national government wisely enacted a law compelling all manufac- turers of oleomargLrine and other sub stitutes for butter to so label it that the consumers would know just what they are buying. In view of these facts we can rightfully call upon our govern ment to protect the wearer of woolen goods by requiring the manufacturer to 90 label his goods that the consumer will know beyond all possible doubt that the garment, article or cloth con tains so much straight fleece wool.
