was appointed that this should take
the form of grain, as this was a medi-
um both dignified and fitting. And
those of the people who had it were
not forced to barter their other prod
uce for grain before they could pay
this tribute.
On the Sacred Mountain itself vast
storehouses were dug in the rock,
and here the grain was teemed in
great yellow heaps, and each genera
ton of those that were set over it
took pride IN adding to the accumu-
lation.
In modern days it had been the Gus
tom among the younger and more
forward of the priests to scott at this
ancient provision, and to hold that
a treasure of gold or weapons or
jewels would have more value and no
less of dignity; and more than once
it had been a close thing lest these
innovators should not be outvoted.
But as it was, the old constitution
had happily been preserved, and now
in these years of trial the clan
reaped the benefit. And so with
these granaries and series of great
tanks and cisterns which held the
rainfall, there was no chance of Pho
renice reducing our stronghold by
mere close Investment, even though
she sat down srubbornly before it for
a score of years. s.@.a' ~ J. 3.;.4a

4 SUGG ESTED REMEDY.

A special to the BONANZA from
Reno received yesterday states that
Minister Conger reports that the
latest uprising in China has become
grave, and that Boxer troubles have
become serious as two years ago.
Missionaries have been killed and
churches burned
Such may be the result OF Russian
intrigue or rather the steady en-
croachments of that power. What
in the eyes of the MongoIs is just as
bad, however, is the unwelcome pres
ence of the missionaries. In view of
the failure of civilization to partition
China, we would suggest that the
missionaries stay at home and let
the Chinese alone.

Congressman Newlands cannot re.
sist the temptation to grasp every
opportunity to do his peculiar kind OF
politics, no matter how inappropri-
ate the occasion. The defendants in
the suit of Miller & Lux held IA meet
ing the other day in Mason Valley
and Mr.. Newlands invited himself 10
attend and address the farmers upon
irrigation and Mr., Newlands. They
listened patiently, although consider
ably bored. and then Mr.. TreadweIi
made few remarks. He told them
more about the effect of the irriga-
ton bill than Mr.. Newlands had
dreamed Of, and he told them also
who was the one man mainly respon-
sible for its passage. Naturally this
put Mr.. Newiands' nose considerably
out of joint, especially as he realized
that the farmers present recognized
the falsity of the position he had been
posing in, 1t is not likely that he
will push himself into any more meet
ings of that character. - Carson

OUR STATE TICKET.

The ticket presented for the con
sideration VI the voters of Nevada by
the Republicans is one that is +;
source Of pride to the party and o
qualification to the State.
No man ON that ticket is owned OF
controlled by anybody There were
no bosses to consult when the ticket
was being selected and every man
stands for clean, wholesome politics
and State progress Not one of the
gentlemen whose name graceS that
document is professional office
seeker. Not one of them came here
from any other State for the sole
purpose Of obtaining Office Not one
of them hut whose heart and all are
in Nevada 1t is probably true thai
comparisons are odiouS but the
careful voters will unconsciously draw
them and they will not be to the dis
al, antagr Of the Republican ticket
The three generals who will lead
the forces of the Republican army
are Hon Thos. P. Hawley, Hon. L.
5. Harrington and Hon. A. C. Cleve-
land Judge Hawley has been a Ne
vadan almost from the lime when he
first began to cattle with the world.
In all that time he has but deepened
the respect and admiration for his
stability aud integrity of character,
felt by the people OF all Nevada.
Mr. Harrington is the peer of any
ma !, and rs Nevada's Congressman
the State will be served by gentle
man of ability and unquestioned hon
esty. A. c. Cleveland is man be-
loved by the people, and the lifetime
he has spent in Nevada has justified
the confidence.
The high position of Justice Of the
Supreme Court is not a political one,
although party action be necessary
To place candidate before the cleo
tors. In the candidature of p NJ.
Bowler, Jr., the legal fraternity of
Nevada recognize the elevation of an
able and honest member of the bar.
Litigants, whether rich or poor, may
well be gratitied to know that
nou'it iaWyC diii hi pdi bldi HldH Will
be among the final arbilers to whom
appeal may be made. Mr.. Bowler
has been in southern Nevada thirty
one years, having practiced law with
] rdge Curler twenty-five year, ago.
The rest of the Republican ticket
is made up Of Nevadans of equal quail
itications. 1t is ticket of the ppo-
pie, and for the people. Its success
means the moving of Nevada in the
direction of progress and honesty.
1t means the reputation of frauds,
corrnptionists and charletans. 1t
means that Nevada indorses and will
uphold that typical western Presi-
dent, Theodore Roosevelt. 1t will
mean that Nevada will have nhu-
ence in the United States.
