Ii it had not been for the Sharon
estate he would not have a Billy Sharon
to manipulate elections on the Com
stock. If it had not been for the
Sharon estate how could he have gotten
Bartine out of the way In 1892 to give
him a clear road to Congress-? If it had
not been for the Sharon estate how
could he have paid out $Io,o for cleo
ton purposes in 1896, for which he de-
manded repayment from John P. Jones?
If it had not been for the Sharon estate
how could he have induced Nixon to
pull chestnuts out of the fire for him in
1896? If it had not been for the Sharon
estate what interest would Coffin,
Chartz, Cleveland, and Jim Dennis have
in Newlands as a candidate for the
Senate? If it had not been for the
Sharon estate how could he have main
tanned his hounds, his bob-tail horses
and his golf club parties at Chevy Chase?
If it had not been for the Sharon estate
would he not be a plain American citi-
zen to-day without any special distinc-
ton OF caste, race or previous surround
ings?

for Which He Accepts Applause.
1t Was Taken by Him Word for
Word from Senate Bill.
RENO, New, November /, 1898.

Hon. F. G. N~EwLANDs, Reno, Nev.:.
SIR: Your failure to procure legisla-
ton in the House in behalf of Nevada
has excited some inquiry. In order that
the people may judge of your useful
ness as a Representative of Nevada l
will state from the record that the only
bill you had passed through the House
during the three terms in Congress is a
bill for $500, money due Marshal Moore
for services rendered after the expiration
OF his term of Office. During your
three terms, and previous to the last
session, you voted on various roll-calls
on the passage of bills, joint resolutions,
ETC., I47 times. You were absent during
r~oll-calls on passage of bills, joint reso-
%lut1ons, ETC., SIS times. This record is
from August 7, 1898, when you first took
your seat, until July "a, 1897.
Mr.. Newlands, this is a bad record for
a Nevada Representative. and if there
were no other reason, this inattention to
business on your part would account for
your utter failure to accomplish any
thing for the benefit of the state.
You have dealt unfairly with the peo-
pie of Nevada in other ways. You have
constantly published in the papers, and
l understand you paid for it, an account
of pensions obtained for soldiers. You
did not obtain these pensions. They
were granted by the department, and
any part that you may have taken in it
was mere routine work and consisted in
referring the letters of applicants to the
proper departments and requesting
favorable action, which is the work of
