Newlands does lot pretend that Stew
art we had the least idea that he
(Newlands) would enter the Senatorial
contest at any time. But he pretends
that a remark made by his friend
Sharon to Stewards friend Wallace
operated as an entire release of New
lands from his pledge.

evidently intend to convey the idea
that there has been too much of it pro-
duced, and you exercise your ingenuity
in suggesting devices by which silver
production may be curtailed. First, a
selgnlorage or government tax, greater
or less" that is, raised to whatever
point may be necessary to discourage
silver mining; and, second, a govern
ment prohibition to the location of new
mines, which you assume will be effeC-
tive because those o. privately owned
"will soon be exhausted" Now, if
this had been said by Bynum and Eckles
or Cleveland or any other of the gold
standard cranks, | should o have been
surprised and certainly should not have
thought of criticising it. But in the
mouth OF a p~rofessed silver advocate it
is such a giving away of position and
argument as to threaten the most
serious injury, unless exposed and de-
nounced by those in whose behalf it is
assumed to be spoken. We are pre-
pared to meet our open enemies but we
cannot safely tolerate the Endorsement
of their theories by those regarded as
our advocates and protesting loyalty to
the cause of silver restoration. Posi-
bly,, Mr.. Newlands, YOU may be able to
give some explanation of your remark
able language and if so O cannot
begin to make it too soon. If
these extracts fairly present your
views, then you have no right longer
to pose as a friend of silver. Your
scheme is not only i,npracticable,
one of those illusory devices "to do
something for silver" which are contin-
ually bobbing up in goldbug literature,
but is an absolute surrender of all that
is vital in silver advocacy. When a man
who assumes to be a champion of silver
talks about a "regulation of coinage" to
preserve parity and deprecates any ex-
pansion of the money volume by which
prices might be increased and absolutely
suggests a limitation upon production
as a means Of preserving the purchasing
power of gold, he belongs on the other
side and if he persists in carry
ing a silver flag, deserves a court
martial. If you are in favor of the
free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer at the present ratio by the
United States independently of other
nations, you should take the first
opportunity to say so distinctly. There
is no halfway house in which you, more
than any one else, can take shelter. The
issue is simple and admits of no compro.
mise. Those who are unqualifiedly for
it are on one side, and those who are no,
including the whole scale from Cleve-
land to Secretary Gage, are on the other
side. Mr.. Newlands, you can choose
your side, but l protest against ar effort
to occupy both. 1t is as impossible te
serve both God and MammOn now as i
was two thousand years ago.
Yours respectfully,
THOMAS WREN.

Newlands says 'the question is
whether l can honorably be a candidate
under the circumstances" Even he is
forced to thus admit that it is question
able whether he can honorably be a
candidate.

Why is Yerington mad if anybody dis
putes his authority over the people of
Ormsby county? Because he has owned
and controlled the county so long through
the power of the Virginia and Truckee
railroad that he claims a proscriptive
right over the people of Carson, as any
other alien naturally would if allowed
absolute sway for thirty years.

THOMAS WREN.
Yours, truly,

Why is it that the revilers of Stewart
during the campaign under the rallying
cry of "anything to beat Stewart" pro-
claimed Newlands as their candidate as
soon as the election was over? 1t is be-
these vituperators were friends of
Stewards all the time and enemies of
Newlands and refused to listen to New
lands frantic appeals to them to aid
him in carrying out his pledges to sup
port Mr.. Stewart.
Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1899-01-12

Why is Yerington more jealous of his
prerogatives than formerly? Because, as
the power to rule the community is de-
parting from him, he NEEDLES with
everybody's business to keep up his
courage for the same reason that a ner-
YOU boy whistles in a graveyard.

Why did Mr.. Ne wlands nave SO much
TO say about good faith to people who
visited him at Golconda Springs during
the campaign? Because he knew that
Coffin, Chart and Jim Dennis were
faithful to somebody and their candidate
kept the question of good faith fresh in
his mind.
Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1899-01-12

How is it that Mr.. Newlands is now
able to command the services of the
enemies of Stewart in the state when he
had so little influence with them during
the campaign that he was unable to re-
strain them from abusing Stewart to
whom he was pledged.
Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1899-01-12

Why is Billy Sharon n of the best
miners in the state? Because he can
work servant girls and make them pay
assessments for the benefit of himself
and friends more successfully than n
other man who ever manipulated tine
Comstock mines.
Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1899-01-12

Is it strange that the enemies of Stew
art named their candidate during the
campaign "anything to beat Stewart"
and now they call him Newlands? Why
have they changed his name? Because
to have named him and exposed his
intrigues during the campaign would
ave beaten him for Congress and
elected Wren.

Why does Yerington refuse to become
an American citizen and Newlands re-
fuse to wear clothes made in American
style? Because it is English, you know.
Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1899-01-12

Why is Newlands willing to sacrifice
the Central Pacific to crafty the people?
Because he is like Artemus Ward who
would sacrifice all of his wife's relations
for the good of the union, provided he
and his family were allowed to stay at
home.

You don't mean to call Newlands a
monkey? Oh, no, we simply wanted to
call attention to the facility with which
he handles old man Y~erington by play
ing or his egotism and vanity.

Why does Mr.. Awlands think he IAN
be elected to the enate without hs ing
any members of tie legislature publicly
in his favor? Because he thinks that
money is more poant in private than IN
public.
Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1899-01-12

Why is Newlands III favor of reducing
fares and freights on the Central
Pacific? Because he is opposed to re
ducing fares and freights on the Viz
g1nia and Truckee railroad in which the
Sharon estate has a third interest.

Why did Newlands want Gage to pu,

which would be acceptable to the gold.

Why is Yerington like the unfo-tu-

out of the fire.

yes, he married agreat deal of money.

Why does Newlands want the govern

INTENSE EXCITEMENT
AMONG 7HE DELEGATES
Teachers at Les ANGELES Anxious
About Friends on the
Wrecked Tram.

LOS ANGELES, July 10.-When the
news was received to-day that a wreck
had occurred on the Southern Pacific, and
that several teachers have been killed and
wounded, there was intense excitement
among the visiting delegates. Many had
friends on the train, and they besieged
the general headquarters of the National
Educational Association for particulars
of the wreck and the names of the dead
and injured.
Reports at first were grossly exagger-
ated as to the extent of the accident, and
when it was learned that the fatalities
were limited the excitement subsided. but
the news, nevertheless, cast gloom over
the visitors There were many expressions
of indgra alton at such an APPARENTLY mex
cusable accident, and it seems probable
that action may be taken by the National
Association or the board of directors of
that body.
Secretary Irwin Shepard, when asked
about the matter tonight, said: THE
board Of directors of the National Edu-
cational Association meets tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock. The directors may
then take some step in the matter, but
am lot now prepared to say what, and

REVIEWING THE CASE
OF CAPTAIN CARTER
Mr.. Mckinley Said to Have Asked
the Attorney General for an
Early Report.

NEW YORK, July 10.-The Suns special
from Washington says: The case of
Captain o. NJ. Carter of the Engineer
Corps of the army, convicted by court
martial of irregularities in his accounts,
probably will be finally decided within a
few weeks. The papers are in the hands
of Attorney General Griggs, who has been
reviewing the case by direction of the
President. The Attorney, General has
given much time to the findings of the
court and the evidence submitted. He
has personally examined every phase of
the case. To give him complete data all
the accounts of Captain Carter were sent
to the Department of Justice.
Briefs have been filed both for and
against Captain Carter, but to give him
self a complete understanding of the case
pert bank examiner go over all of Captain
Carter's accounts and make a report. He
has consumed much time, as the papers
fill two boxes about five feet high and
four feet square. Attorney General Griggs
has nearly completed his review, however,
and is now engaged in summing UP state
mentS of counsel and the reply of Colonel
Barr.
The Worlds Washington special says:
1t is said tonight that President McKin-
ley has at last shown disposition to take
action in the case of Captain Carter, con-
victed by court-martial of embezzling
81 500 900 OF Government funds while SUI
perintending harbor work in Georgia.
President Mckinley instructed Attorney
case and report not later than the last of
this week, that the President may an
nounce by that time his final determine
ton. The Attorney General to-day had
a Government bank official from New
York here giving a comparison of Captain
Carters private bank account with his
official account.
Governor Roosevelt's recent visit to the
White House is considered by some to be
the chief cause of the Presidents deci-
sion to take up the case in earnest. 1t is
said that the Governor told the President
frankly that his dilatoriness was bitterly
resented by the people.
