ASSERTION VS.. FACTS

The Times Review makes the fol
lowing statement relative to the Reno
Silver Convention of two years ago:
At the bidding of one man the Sill
yer party absolutely refused the plof-
fers Of the Democrats, and even re
fused to reaffirm the platform of 1896.
upon which Bryan stood and for
which they protested allegiance two
years before.
The facts relative to this matter are
more easily ebtainable from the plat
form of the Silver party than from the
editor Of the Times Review, whose
memory relative to matters political
seems at Tins to be some what at
fault.
The Reno platform, published in all
the Silver papers Of the State con-
tains the following:
We reaf61m our devotion 10 the
free and unlimited coinage Of silver
at the ratio of sixteen to one by the
indepe ndent action of the United
States.
Our faith in the loyalty, ability
and wise leadership of William Jen-
nipgs Bryan is untiminished and
We predict Tor the Silver forces Of
the United States, with 16 to as
their motto and w. J. Bryan as their
standard bearer, an overwhelming
victory in 1900.
Is there any refusal to reaffirm the
platform Of go in that languagee
The editor of the Times-Rev has
persistently endeavored to misrepre-
sent the Silver party. lie should be
taught by someone AID at an early
day that Misrepresentation never vel
won a victory that was worth win
ming or that was rmanent.
He was a member of the same con
vention that adopted that platform
and can hardly plead ignorance o
bad memory in the matter.
After the adjournment of the Con
vention he went back to Tuscarort
and fought the ticket placed in tn
field by that Convention
Thinking that the people would re
ward him for his treachery he ran fo
the State Senate and discovered tina
he had mistaken the sort Of peopl
who lived in Eiko county. The
turned him down by decisive :najo
ity.
The Times Review is still calm
for fusion with the whole ticket, E
it did two years ago. What guara1
tee will the Times Review man 81,
anybody that he will stand by Il
ticket after it is put up?
1t might also be pertinent to e
quire whe in Elko county will endor
the guarantee?
The Silver party did refuse to NAL
an alliance with the Democracy I
the State ticket and the wisdem
their actioa was amply demenstr
when the election returns we
counted.
The Silver party is still for Brya
as in 'o6, and will fuse OH electors

Dun's review for the week is worded
In a most conservative manner, but it

tai Liabilities Of over $1,000, 900. 1t
comments on this showing as follows:
The total shows a heavy increase
in comparison with the corresponding
month last year, which is mainly due
to phenomenally sound conditions ex-
listing at that time"

featuring failures by saying:
Moreover. about 20 per cent Of the
large total in manufacturing failures

Of business, and II concerns were re-

rather glad that the Chinese situation
affords n distraction. The day of reck-

Cro.. word. KIN a BIRD.

bird which receives a scolding is
made as miserable and unhappy there
by as a child would he. To illustrate
lowing story:
A Massachusetts woman had a few
years ago n beautiful canary bird
which she dearly loved and TO which
she had never spoken an unkind word
In her life.
One day the church Organist was
away, and she stopped after church TO
play the organ for the Sunday school
In consequence Of this the dinner had

home her good husband was very an

The things were put on, and they sat
down in silence at the table, and pres
emily the bird began TO chirp at her as
IL always had TO attract her attention.
To shame her husband for having spo-
ken SO she turned TO the bird and for
the first time IN her life spoke TO Il in a
most violent and angry tone. In less
than five minutes there was q futter-
ing in the cage. She spranE TO the
cage. The bird was dead.

vice president OF the United States.

bird in the same way. 1t annoyed her
by loud singing. To stop IT she spoke
in a violent tone and pretended TO
throw something at il, and within Eve

Your uncle Mark Hanna is getting
very cross over the antics of Roosevelt.
The rough rider is getting cross toe.
1t was bad enough TO be shelved in
New York by being forced on the
ticket with Mckinley, but Roosevelt
is sadly coming TO the conclusion that
he is TO be shelved by the Republican
campaign committee also.
Hanna is aghast at the results OF
Roosevelt's St Paul speech. 1t has
done much TO put Minnesota in the
doubtful column, as well as to hurt the
prospects of the party everywhere.
Roosevelt is insisting upon promoting
his rough rider circus. Hanna knows
that in so far as he is permitted to do
ii he gives the Democrats the object
lesson they want in order TO show the
drift toward militariSm. Roosevelt
must be kept out of New York state If
there is TO be any hope of saving 1t

anyway.

When the Republicans grow melan-
choly and talk conservatively about
their prospects, then they are getting
ready to do business in earnest.
The Republicans will leave no device
untried TO entice and mislead voters.
but it is admitted on all sides that
there is n painful lack of Republican
enthusiasm The business classes pro-
fess to be too much absorbed in their
pursuits. The laboring masses listen
languidly TO the praises or prosperity
which they have not.

vides the machine workers. 1t seems

which arose over the Porto Rican bill.
