HOW SHALL WE FUSE?

To the Editor Of the SENTINEL:
The question Of how . fusion Of the
Democratic and Silver parties may be si-
feotsd with the least possible friction seems
now to be uppermoss in the minds Of the
friends Of both parties.
II is suggested that each convention
should 6rst state the nominations it re-
quired and thus select . ticket; but suppose
each convention IS . whole or through its
conference committee should name the
same office or offices, and refuse to depart
from its choice and insist upon the nomins.
tion or nominations il asked for be given it.
what then would be the result! Why, be-
yond doubt. that there would be, - in 1898,
two tickets instead of one in the field.
In 1898, the Democratic and Silver con.
v~entions appointed each . conference com
mittee to agree upon . fusion ticket. bus as
each COMMITTEES claimed in certain Offices
the same nominations, and positively de.
clined TO recede therefrom, the effort 10
fuse fell to the ground.
What assurance have we that insistance
apon the above plan will not lead to 9 fail.
ure to fuse when the conventions meet next
August?
1t seems to ms the Democrats and Silver.
ties should take warning from the past and
adopt the plan which cannot fail to give
them . real fusion ticket that will sweep
the State, and in my judgment that plan il
as follows:
The Silver aud Democratic conventions
should meet separately, and after organic
ing resolve to form, and form . joint CON,
v~ention, and then name in the ordinary and
usual mode a ticket from top to bottom. In
this way there can be no possible chance
for . future to fuse. nor is il TO be sup
posed that the joint convention will no,
have the honor. manhood and patriotism Il
act fairly and give each party . right snd
proper representation on the ticket.
Both conventions will have the sams
number OF delegates, and in my opinion
that fact was determined on at the recent
meeting Of the Silver and Democratic com
mittees with q view to 3 joint convention 81
which and by which alone the ticket should
be selected.
No doubt the enemy will do ell 10 theil
power to SOW the seeds Of dissensiou in oul
ranks. and it possible divide us. and theil
last chance now will be when the oonven
tions meet in August. Let rs keep . sharI
lookout for the gold bugs. and always "be
ware Of the Greeks bearing PRESENTS"

Somewhat Of q blight appears to have
stricken the brilliancy Of Tonopah re-
Gently, and the grand rush thither 10 hes
itating and wondering. The boom OF the
leasers getting out their thousands oil
tons Of rich ore in the shortest space OF
time, employing several hundred men,
closed by stipulation on January LIST, and
the whole property passed into the hands
of its purchasers, the Tonopah Mining
Company OF Philadelphia. Since taxing
possession, the company has been unex-
pectedly dilatory in the way Of prosecute
ing further mining operations, simply
employing less than q hundred men prin-
cipally in prospecting work, but doing
nothing toward bringing in the much
needed water supply, placing requisite
reduction works or doing anything Of the
practical nature required and expected.
All Of which has had the tendency to
fiatten out the prospects of the district
generally, and give Tonopah q black eye.
Trouble and opposing d~issensions in
the official management or board Of trus-
tees is assigned as the principal cause of
this disagreeable state Of affairs, all OF
which is exceedingly detrimental both in
side and out. And 1t is also said that
they have been selling stock 30 lavishly
at high rates that they don't exactly
know where they stand and won't know
until the annual election of the company,
which takes place on the LIST Of May next.
1t certainly is to be hoped that this self
knocking business will be Strengthened
put and brought TO an end at that time,
and as much sooner as is possible for the
benefit Of Tonopah and all interested in
it's real merits as an exceedingly valuable
'lining discovery.
