Burglar Proof Shutters

A new German safety shutter which Is
invulnerable to burglars, is made on the
principle of the roller shutter, the strips
of hardened steel three-quarters of an
inch In diameter. placed over rods or on
plvots. The sides, the only vulnerable
points, are hidden in grooves, and, as the
tubes revolve freely the burglars tools can
obtain no purchase upon them, thus rem
dering strong rooms, ETC., absolutely inac-

the same plan would also prove invaluable

THERE WILL BE WAR.

Any other conclusion than this
seems impossible.
1t is practically admitted in Wash
ington that the Naval Board will de-
clare the Maine to have been blown
up by a torpedo or "A mine. That re-
port will be in the hands Of the Presi-
dent to-day Thursday. Tomorrow
friday he will demand indemnity
and reparation from the Spanish gov
eminent, giving it "a hours to reply.
Monday the President will submit
the report of the Board, his demand
upon Spain and Spain's reply to Con-
gress. 1t is deemed certain that
Spain's reply will demand delay or
arbitration, or will fatty deny her
liability in any degree. In the event
of either of these three replies, the
answer of the President and Congress
would be war.
Independent of the Maine report,
the President will send message to
Congress declaring that this govern
ment cannot permit the inhuman war
in Cuba, with its accompanying hor-
rors,t continue longer. And that also
means war.
There will be war.

CITY POLITICS AND THINGS

1t is pretty generally understood
in this neighborhood that the kind of
politics we are having here in lola at
this time Is not the REGISTERS kind.
This paper believes in the Republican
party, yesterday, today and forever.
1t is built that way and it can't help
it. And it believes that the Republi-
can party can run the town of lola
just as much better than any other
party as it can run the nation. Hence
it is for Republican ticket at all
times and under all conditions.
Submission to the will of themaiori.
ty is the cardinal article in its creed
of faith, however, and when il became
apparent that the Judgment of the
majority of the Republicans favored q
contest entirely outside of party lines
during the present campaign, it made
no protest. And ii makes no protest
now. W. Only it is obliged to confess
that when .there is no Republican
ticket in the field it is good deal
lost. 1t doesn't know where to go.
1t never fought for an independent
ticket OF Citizens ticket or. a Young
Crowd ticket or Woman's ticket or
any miscellaneous assortment of that
kind in its life, and it doesn't know
how.
1t knows:very well, however, what
it wants the ticket that is elected this
spring to stand for, and here are the
things;
Peace.
Harmony.

SOME of the Pop papers have been
throwing bricks at Barney Sheridan
of the Paola Spirit, who comes back
with the following truthful statement
of the status of Populism: "Popu-
lism has already disappeared i'm the

mated from all the northwest and
west, but Kansas. 1t had over 50,-
900 votes two years ago i'm Ohio, and
last fall, CoXey, the same man who
ran for Governor in 1895, got cnly g.
600. From ~ 900 few years ago in
Kentucky it dropped last fall to 1000,
and there isn't enough of them left in
Wisconsin to shoe the flies out of a
sugar barrel. Iowa has no more Pop
ulists to speak of and no more is heard
of them in Oregon. Governor Steph-
ems, who is candidate for re, election
said the other day that il would be
like going to hospital to recruit a
regiment to fuse with them. Kansas
is ever doing queer thing but she is
generous in all her cranky doings.
She gave the cradle for Populism and
now the will furnish its grave. Here
it was born and here it will die. Sick
unto death it has returned from its
wanderings in the southland with the

The Excursion Off.

The Nevada Press Association has de-
ferred its proposed excursion to Omaha
to some future time. The mere sugges-
ton of so many influential citizens leav-

Ship OF State begin to wobble SO fear
fully that the unselfish editors concluded
to stay at home and help hold her down.
Their self sacrifice will no doubt be re-
warded by the glory OF shaping the des-

may be a stray nomination or two thrust
upon them, but these are mere trities
and not the reason they stayed at home
at all. Ii you want to know the real

Sibley on Stewart.

Hon. Joseph G. Sibley Of Pennsylva-

inquiry of Justice Massey of the Su-
preme Court:
"VALooUR, Clinton Co., N. Y.
"August 6, 1885,
Hon. ". A. Massey, Carson, City,

Of b~imetallism. The desperate efforts OF
the gold standard men will of course be
made to defeat him, but 1 cannot be-
lieve that the good people OF Nevada can
be for a moment deceived by them.
Senator Stewards defeat would, in my
humble judgement, prove a national
calamity. To me and to thousands OF
others in the East, he more than any
other living man has stood as ''The
Shadow Of a Mighty Rock" For the
cause of the people he has worked with
a %superhuman energy. He has tonight
when others quailed. He has carried
the colors forward when others sought
compromise. He has never let side
questions divert him from the one great
issue. When others we're content to
defend he has always been ready to lead
in an attack. He has made the path OF
the gold monopolists a thorny M He
has rebuked and exposed them by name
in his place in the Senate and to my
mind he is 1.-The noblest Roman OF them

have done for the truth permits me to cal

implore him 10y all that is sacred in
