COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
April 20. 1900
THERE ARR OTHERS.

The Carson Appeal says Judge
Webster Of Reno is a candidate for
Judge OF the Supreme court and
further declares that the Judge Is
the NEST prominent cause OF the op-
position to fusion as viewed by the
Silver men. The grounds for this
opposition. the Appeal Gays, is the
course tho pursued by the Judge RS
business manager OF the Reno Jour
nal during tie senatorial campaign.
it will be remembered by everybody
that the Journal favored the election
OF Stewart to the United States Sem
ate from the beginning OF the cam
paigu and until after the election,
when it suddenly switched and advo.
Gated the election Of Newlands. Ii
DO will remembered also that Judge
Webster was the sole owner OF the
paper when it changed it's support
from Stewart to Newlands, he having
purchased the interest OF Surveyor
General Kelley. 1t is not our inten-
ton to mix up in the Appeals tight
with Judge Webster further than TO
warn the Appeal that other men be-
sides Judge Webster are stumbling
blocks to fusion. IL the oiTense Of
Judge Webster as viewed by the Sill
yer party, is sufficient 10 prevent his
endorsement by a Silver party State
convention, what docs ii think Of the
Enforcement OF Judge Bonnifield 10y
the Democratic State convention?
Does the Appeal think FOR a moment
that any such fusion can be effected?
II it does, il greatly mistakes the
temper OF the Democracy OF Nevada
toward the two Supreme Judges who
dragged their official positions in the
dirt during the campaign Of 1898.
judge Webster may be guilty OF every
thing the Appeal charges him with
but even then he stands head and
shoulders above the Supreme Judges
who degraded their positions TO win a
temporary advantage Tor their party.
