| 1CpuDllCtu lttlOI III Va SInlACl dlOh
County
This being the first assemblage of tho
since the sad death Of President Mckinley
we take the occasion to express our deep
sorrow at his untimely taking off and
we are at loss to find words with which
to condemn the foul act of the assassin.
2. We rejoice that the administration of
Our martyred President, William McKin-
ley. and that of his successor, Theodore
Roosevelt, are creditable and in keeping
with the anstant policy of the Republican
Party.
| 8. The Republicans of the State of Ne
vada, having by their representatives in
convention assembled at Reno on the 18th
day of September, 1902, adopted platform
that wisely expresses their standing as re-
CARDS the great questions that are to-day
before the people of the United States for
solution. Now we, the delegates of the
Republican Party of Esmeralda county,
in convention assembled, feel that it would
be superfluaus to add, or attempt to add,
! anything to that platform. Therefore be
it
Resolved, That we, the Republican Con-
indorse and adopt the declaration OF prin-
ciples adopted at said convention.
4. We have heard with satisfaction and
pride the nsmes Of the nominees OF the
State Convention and we heartily indorse
the candidates there nominated, pledge
them our hearty support and predict a
victory for tho entire Republican ticket
at the ensuing election.
5. The Republican party of Esmeralda
county halls with delight the return to its
ranks Of former adherents, who were per.
suaded to join the pretended friends of
silver and we cordially invite the friends
Of good government without regard to
party affiliations, to unite with US in the
continued maintenance OF the progress
and prosperity which has been achieved
by the Republican Party.
G. We pledge our nominees to the Leg
islature, il elected, to cast their votes for
Thomas Z. Hawley for United States SEN
ator.
7. We condemn the policy of depoeiting
the funds Of Esmeralda county or any part
thereof in any bank or banking institu-
ton. We declare that the same should be
kept in the Treasury OF the county to be
inspected and counted by tho Board of
County Commissioners as often as deemed
necessary.
We condemn the Democratic and Silver
Party for failing to enact law requiring
monthly meetings of the Boards Of Coun-
ty Commissioners for the allowance of
claims against the county and the trans
action of other county business,
8. We pledge our nominees for county
Office to carry on the county government
in an honest and ecnmical manner

A Good Idea.

Last night at the council meeting it
was ordered that the city clerk be in
structed to advertise for bids for a land
scape gardener to seed the park known
on the plats of the city as Walnut park,
but commonly called the Children's
park, and keep the same in good condi-
lion. This park is located at the north
end OF 5th street and has the making Of
one Of the prettiest parks OF the city if
it is we'll kept and tended.
While on the subject OF parks land
this is just the time of year when the
work should be done) it might be a good
plan for the council TO provide the right
kind OF benches isome that would not
make good kindling) for the City park,
which is situated just in the right local.
ty for strangers in the city to enjoy a
few hours rest while they are waiting
here. There is no place to go, unless
one wishes to walk a long ways to get to
the library where persons can rest, with
out they go to hotel or grocery store.
1t is safe to say that the majority Of the
citizens would be in favor OF hiring a
man to tend the various parks through
the summer months and keep them In
good condition.

Blanche Boise, a protege OF Mrs. Nation
horsewhlpped Mayor Parker in his ONCE
at the city building this morning about
O clock. Three times she slashsd the
mayor and then he spraug at her, grip
ped her by the throat, choked her, tore
the rawhide out OF her hand and pushed
her into the hall.
AS Mise Boise was thrust out of the
Office by Mayor Parker she exclaimed:
"Thank God, I've done it! I've horse
whipped you and now Im going to horse
whip the governor"
Before beginning her horsewhipping
Miss Boise gave the mayor severe
scolding and accused him OF being re
sponsible for the fact that the joints are
running openly in Topeka and for the
murder which was recently committed
in Roy Daniels saloon. She then pulled
the horsewhip from the folds of her
dress and before the mayor knew what
had happened she struck him three
times across the head and shoulders.
Miss Boise is a nurse by profession.
She is about 35 years of age and is quite
a handsome woman.

Three Months Today.

The records of the fire department in
this city, according to Alderman John
Dickerson, show that there has not been
a fire alarm turned into the depar tment
for three months. This is au almost re
marka BILE fact when it is considered tina
formerly there had never been month
in the history OF the department where
in there had not been an alarm OF fire
excepting one instance when five week
elapsed between fires.
There can be no reason for the presen
state of affairs in regard to the matter
only that everyone has been particu larl
lucky and everyone in general is to b
congratulated upon The good fsrtun'
which has kept flames from devourinf
any portion of the city.

"Human Hearts,.

The idyl of the Arkansas bills, "Human
Hearts," replete with interest, mirth ana
pathos, will be presented at the Park op-
era house, Friday, March 2Sth, and no
lover OF the drama should fail to attend
the performance.
But few travelling companies carry so
much and elaborate scenery. No e1
pense has been spared in the effort TO
make this performance in every way ar
tistically realistic. One breathes the at
mosphere of the simple farm life and
ones heart throbs with the sutferings OF
plain country folks who engage the at
tention by their homely ways and simple
nature.
The people OF this city and vicinity
will have the opportunity next Friday
to laugh away their cares and sympa-
thize with sorrow, il they go to see this
very successful play.

Instructions by Mail.

There is at least one fellow in Grand
Junction who has learned how to open a
cash drawer without the use OF a key 4.
Several days ago he saw advertised in
an eastern magazine that Chicago man
would. for the small sum OF 81, send a
set of instructions which, il used proper
ly, would open any cash drawer in the
world. Well, to cut long story short,
this curious individual sent his little old
two plunks and by mail in due time he
received neatly printed circular which
contained the following directions:
Take position before the register;
advance the left foot; stand firmly; swing
the az with both hands around the head
three times, and smite the cash register
with might and main. Location OF blow
immaterial. Repeat until result is OBJ
taiaed."
The gentleman has had his curiosity
satisfied and therefore we have refrained
from mentioning his name, as he may
want to use his superior knowledge in
opening some cash drawer in the city
and we would not care to hurt bis bust
ness.
