Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1900-02-20

The ethics Of the legal profession
must be at a pretty low ebb in San
Francisco when the attorneys in
case will hire detectives to trial the
attorneys of the other side about town
at night to see if they can catch them
in some malodorous scandal.
They tried this in the Fair
case the detectives reported to the
Fair attorneys that they had tracked
Late Pence on several occasions late
at night to house in the Western
Addition with a ''handsome black
eyed woman Subsequent investi
CATION demonstrated that the woman
in question was LAT Pence S wife and
the house he visited was his private
residence. Now what did the FAN
attorneys propose to do i'll case they
had found that the woman in the case
was Mrs. Pence? Can anyone sug
gest any other object than that they
proposed to threaten the attorney
with social exposure if he did not
drop the suit? If they had real de
Tense, decent. just legal defense
would they resort to such unprofess
ional methods? # it can be showr
that they hired those detectives for
such a purpose should not the Cali
fornla Bar Association purge itself O
such attorneys and strike their name
from the roll of membership?
Further than this does anyone doub
that attorneys who would stoep t
such WORK would hesitate at an,
other form Of rascality to save th
millions of their clients?

the latter is few hundred dollars

And yet all good Republicans are
supposed to GO to the polls this fall
and vote for a tariff to pr tect such
men and their "infant industries"
It will give men al over the Union
the chance to deposit ballot in favor
of increasing the income Of this
steel king to 500, 900 day.
The increase will come out of the
pockets of the poor fools who have
been taught that whatever the Re-
publican party does on the tariff is all
right.

1t has been oftentimes predicted
that war in the far East would be
started some day which would de
stroy the peace of the world, and the
time may have arrived. The latest
advices looking to that end are, that,
I'm response to an ultimatum from the
Powers the Chinese commander al
Taku opened fire on the ships of the
Powers, with the result that the lat
ter replied in kind, silenced the Chs
nese guns, and, landing force, took
possession of the Taku forts" With
the Powers acting in concert as at
present no danger is of course appre
hended, but with their jealousies and
conflicting interests no one can say
how long they will act together, OF
forecast the violence OF the storm ii
an attempt is made by either to car
nv out its schemes of conquest in the
"Flowery Kingdom" without the
consent of the others. In the event
OF such a war there can be no ques
ton that the United States along
with the other great Powers will take
her part in it. President Mckinley
has already decided to send regi
ment of troops from the Philippines
TO China, even while we are at peacf
with that country, so that he may be
ready to further his impSrialistiC
schemes, if the opportunity is pre-
sented.

A special to the Portsmouth Star,
from Richmond, bearing date OF
June 18th, says:
"Dr. George w. LeCato, of Acco-
mack, is here to-day, and announced
himself as a candidate for Lieutenant
Governor. He declares it has been
forty-six years since the Underwater
was represented, and that if any
other good man from that section
runs he will withdraw. That he
cares more for the recognition OF his
section than for himself. His an
nouncement is very favorably re-
ceived here"
No one else, so far as we are
advised, is an aspirant for the
second place on the gubernatorial
ticket in Tidewater and for the rea-
son. that our countyman has been SO
generally recognized as the man for
the place, that the claims OF no one
else have been or will be considered
If DIR. LeCato is willing that settles
IL. Either he will be the winner OF
the honor will fall to some other sec
ton of the State, but he will be the
winner if his services to his State
count for him as they should when
the political slate is been made up.

Mckinley is again the nominee OF
his party for the Presidency and will
have as a running mate Roosevelt, of
of New York. That the former would
be. no one has ever doubted, and
there has been no uncertainty as TO
who would have the second place on
the ticket since Wednesday night,
when Boss Hanna declared in favor
of the latter. The convention seems
to have been a tame affair and Will
go down in history, it is stated, "as
the most listless and languid OF all
such gatherings" The "tumultuous
applause" usually created by the
presence and mention of the party
leaders in National Convention was
painfully lacking. The platform even
failed to create any enthusiasm,
which is not surprising, as it means
nothing and did not deserve it. AS
summarized by the Baltimore Sun 1t
is as follows:
The national platform as adopted
by the convention declares for the
principle of the gold standard ana
records 'steadfast opposition to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver"
1t recognizes 1.-The necessity and pro-
priety of the honest co operation OF
capital and favors such legislation
as will effectively restrain and pre-
VENT abuses caused by combinations
TO restrict or monopolize trade, but
suggests no definite remedy for trusts.
Other declarations are for protect
i've tariff. restricted immigration, leg
islation to develop American ship
ping, literally administered pension
laws. a reduction of war taxes, the
construction, ownership, control aud
protection of an isthmain canaP' and
the establishment of department OF
commerce with Cabinet officer in
charge of it. Independence is prom
ised to Cuba and the largest meas
ure of self-government consistent
with their welfare and our duties" to
Porto Rico and Philippines. AS to
the South African war, the hope Is
expressed that "a way may soon be
found, honorable alike to both con-
tending parties, to terminate the
strife between Them" The admins
tration of President Mckinley is in
dorsed.
