SENATOR TELLER'S ADVICE

The Silver Republican of Nevada
who threaten to go back to their old
party associations in case a fusion of
all the elements favorable to silver is
made in this state this fall, should
read and ponder over the following
interview with Senator Teller. He is
loyal to the silver cause and will have
nothing to do With the party that
places the spoils of Office above prin-
ciple. His sound advice applies to
Nevada as we'll as Colorado and
should strike a responsive chord in
the heart of every ma who believes in
the restoration Of the white metal to
Its former place in oar monetary sys-
tenn. 1t is very pertinent to the con-
ditions existing in Nevada at this
time:
Il believe it to be the duty of
the friends of silver to unite on a
state ticket composed of the true and
tried friends OF that metal. I think
the Democrats, Populists and Silver
Republicans should be willing to con-
fer with each other and to put in
nomination a ticket that all can sup
port. am opposed to a fusion or a
cooperation with the Mckinley Re-
nh1fCo-S ord CO Co.
cerned, l will not be a party to such
cooperation either public or con-
Cealed.
II want the Mckinley party to put
up a ticket and support it. l want
no help from that party or any ,reu-
bers of it. The Mckinley admins
tration IS a gold standard adlninistra-
ton and Mr.. Gage, in his efforts to mt
the country more thoroughly on the
gold standard, is in full accord with
the president and every member of
his cabinet.
Il do not think that any silver man
should aid to put that party in power,
either nationally or locally. for that
is the party we must contend with in
1900. have no candidate for any
position, and am fully determined
not to support any man for a high or
low office who does not make the sill
yer question the vital 7 in his poll
lies.
II do not think that anv mar can
claim to be a silver mar who sup
ports the professed policy of the Re
publican party. Not only is the ad
mlnlstratlon committed to the gold
standard, but all the Republicans state
and congressional conventions declar-
ed for the gold standard.
Fusion with the Mckinley party
or support of its adherants is incou-
Sistent with our repeated declaration
mat the silver question is the great {
question in American politics. We 1

CHARTER ARGUMENTS.

HE final answer of the morning organ ot the
 proposed new charter to the estimates sup
 mitted by Auditor Broderick and Expert Will iams of the Supervisors Finance Committee of the probable cost of conducting the government under the instrument is exceedingly characteristic. The organ declares that Sam Rainey, the Democratic boss has directed Broderick to compile his figures for the purpose of decevng the public It attributes the activity of MT. Williams to the desire of the "shifty eight to prevent the adoption of the charter
 What" shrilly e,clams the organ, do the voters of the city think of this of opposition? Are they satisfied to have the city government run by cheap booders of the type of the Devanys the Haskinses, the Sheehans the Deanys, the Mortons, the Britts, the Smiths and the Rverses? Has the rule of these been wise and just that the people care to ac cept their views in deciding upon the city government for the future?"
 This is highly intellectual argument, and we con- fess inability to meet it. If the estimates of Frederick and Williams were inspired by Sam Raney and the "shifty eight they must necessarily be in correct. We can conceive of contingency under which Sam Rainey could add two and two together so as to make four We have idea that the "shfty eight" could compute the salaries authorized by the new charter and reach accurate result It is said that figures do not lie, but have notion that mathematics is not science in the hands of municipal officials who are opposed to the charter.
 Really the organ overreaches itself in its charter de- fense It that the public is mudde-headed itself and in putting forth the fap-doode we have quoted it insults the intelligence of 100000 people The discussion of the charter and the determination of the question whether not 1t shall be accepted ought to be matter of intellectual fencing. We all desire the adoption of good charter. The present generation is no more interested in the pending in strument than generations to come. If the proposed charter is likely to be failure it is to the interest of everybody to defeat it.
 When the organ descends to the level of ward poli- tics in discussing this important subject in udg ment 1t damages its cause-at least in the minds of all thoughtful men
