A STRUNG CANDIDATE.

The SENTINEL has seen many mentions
in the State exchanges of the candidacy Of
James G. Sweeney of Carson for Attorney.
General. While avoiding anything like
partisanship the SENTINEL can truthfully
say that Mr.. Sweeney lie the sort Of man to
reflect honor upon any position in which
the people may choose to place him.. He is
one Of the brightest attorneys in the State
and has sllths energy and. enthusiasm in
the discharge of his duties that youth and
ability command. He is industrious and
Observation-Disclosures not always to be found
in our State oficisls-snd is . graduate Of
the law college of the Columbia University
in Washington. Two years ago he was .
member of the Nevada Assembly and made
. record socond to none. As Chairman Of
the judiciary Committee he had important
duties to perform and fulfilled them ell
with the utmost conscientiousness. It is
to him that we owe the amendment to the
constitution taxing patented mines, which
amendment is to be voted upon by the peo-
pie of Nevada at the coming election. He
has . most engaging and afable personality.
and il nominated would run hundreds Of
votes ahead Of his ticket. In the Fusion
party there is no stronger man to-day than
James G. Sweeney Of Ormsby.

A word in reference to the above. and
to other recent editorials in the SENTINEL.
The SENTINEL has no apology to make
for it's views on political questions,
though its remarks refer chiefly to State
officers. Local or county officers do not
attract much attention outside Of the
State. State officers reflect to a certain
extent the character OF the State and the
business standing OF its people.
For the honor and reputation of the
State, then. the SENTINEL believes that
its very best citizens should conduct it's
business, enact it's laws, and represent
its interest in the Congress of the United
States.
Whether justly or not. Nevada has
the reputation of being a roiton borough I;
OF being. il not an indeterminate, at
least a purchasable quantity. This repu-
tation has injured the business interests
Of the State and retarded the develop
ment OF its resources. It's mineral wealth
is now attracting the attention of the Ma
ton, and capitalists are looking u way

1.-THE MAN FOR GOVERNOR

By a strange coincidence the News and
the Appeal of Carson use the same words
in speaking Of an editorial in the sENTI-
MEL on the qualifications for Governor
and State officers.
How does it happen that those papers
separated as widely as the poles on most
questions, should think exactly alike on
said editorial and use precisely the same
words to express their thought? Does
the same genius preside over the editor
ial department of both papers, and is
their alleged political difference to be
taken purely in a Pickwickian sense?
Be that as it may, the thoughts Of two
lovers lever ran more evenly in the same
channel. Their thoughts sre as synchro-
nous as the ~pulsations of the 1.-TWO hearts
that" proverbially cheat as one."
But that is neither here nor there. The
News acknowledges that men Of such
qualifications may be found in Nevada,
while the Appeal thinks they may be
found only among the angels at rare in
t~ervals, and that the SENTINEL's standard
OF excellence is placed too high.
EVIL COMMUNICATIONS corrupt good
manners" fhe Appeals judgment is
evidently warped by long association with
machine politicians, who in all their
mysterious transitions, transformations
and transactions, have never been ac-
cused Of being. and who by no possible
stretch of the Imagination could be mis-
taken for, angels in disguise.
However, the Appeal is correct in its
opinion if it chooses its candidates only
from men who make a business of poll.
tics. Nevertheless, the Appeal is a good
fellow, perhaps as good as a State Au-
ditor ought to be, but before entering the
pearly gates OF Paradise he must leave
the ranks of the great unwashed forever,
for once there he will never see their
like again.

for profitable Investments. They will be
influenced by the character Of our legis-
lation and by the intelligence, honesty
and responsibility OF our State officers.
U%niriendly legislation will turn capital
away. Wise laws honestly enforced, low
taxes, and ample protection to life and
property will invite it to our State.
1t is therefore time and to the inter-
ests Of every citizen that the good name
OF the State be indicated, its reputation
defended, and the stain Of venality effect
ually wiped out. To this end, the SENTr-
MEL in it's humble way will work from
now till the ides OF mex November. and
in this work Oh redemption and regenera-
ton every honest citizen and every in
dependent paper is invited to take part,
and they may feel entirely confident that
in so doing they will benefit themselves,
benefit society, and benefit the State.
In advocating the nomination OF the
best men in the State for State Offices, the
SENTINEL disclaims, once for all, any ref
erence to or any disrespect towards any
present local officers OF any county in the
State, and at the same time it serves no
tice upon all political bosses that it will
support no man for a State office whose
record will not bear investigation and who
is not honest, competent and incorrupt-
;bloN

The White Pine News, Lovelock Tri-
bune, Reno Gazette, and the Tono-
pah Bonanza, all strong Republican
papers, advocate the nomination of Sad
Ter to head the Democratic Silver Fusion
ticket. With those papers the wish is
father to the thought, for they certainly
desire the success Of the Republican
ticket and therefore wish the Fusion
Convention to nominate the weakest man
in the State. n the Republicans can
easily defeat. The Fusion Convention
should remember that1t is bad policy to
nominate a nan favored by its enemy.

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE

When a trusted Representative OF a
State betrays the confidence reposed in
him, betrays the interests OF the state
and people, sells his vote and barters his
honor for filthy lucre, words fail to meas
ure the depth Of his infamy or the punish
ment that should be attached to it. The
seal of public condemnation should be
indelIbly stamped upon the act, and the
actor himself held up to the scorn and
contempt of honest men.
On the other hand when a Representa-
tive has been faithful to the trust re-
posed in him, has studied the interests OF
the State and people, and worked in sea-
son and out Of season to promote and
safeguard them by timely and judicious
legislation, he deserves we'll OF his con-
s%tituents, and no words Of praise are too
high and no reward within their gift too
great for such a faithful servant, or for
such faithful service.
For forty years nearly all National leg
islation has been in the interests of the
classes and against the interests of the
masses. Amid this vast volume of class
legislation whose aim was the centraliza-
ton Of wealth in the hands Of the few
INT the Impeachment of the many, it
is refreshing to find one bill framed and
carried through in the interests Of the
people. That n measure is the Irriga-
ton bill passed by Congress during the
session recently closed.
That bill provides for the storage Of
the flood waters of the inter-mountain
States, to be utilized in i~rrigating the
scenic arid lands of those States, thus
converting them into fertile fields to be-
conn the homes of a happy, prosperous
and contented people. That Act is GER
tainly in the interests of the people. 1t
will add hundreds of thousands to the
population Of the inter-mountain States,
and perhaps a hundred thousand to the
population of Nevada. 1t will add enor-
mously to the wealth OF those States, by
securing the settlement and cultivation Of
lands hat would otherwise be a dreary
waste.
1t is the most beneficent Act passed by
Congress during the last fifty years, and
the credit Of its passage is largely due to
the indefatigable labors Of our Repre-
sentative in Congress, the Hon. Francis
G.. Newlands of Nevada. He studied the
proposition closely, mastered its every
detail, began a campaign of education
among the members of Congress, and
preached the gospel Of irrigation in ses-
sion and out of session, until victory
crowned his efforts, and the passage of
the late Irrigation bill became an accom-
plished fact.
Again, the SENTINEL says: Honor to
whom honor is due, and among the brave
men who worked for that measure there
is none more worthy than our own Rep
resentative who worked, not only for the
interests of Nevada, but in the interests
Of all the inter-mountain States.

The Reno Journal is authority for the
statement that there are four and one

large proportion of this money is escap-

Washoe county is only s 5000, 900. 1t
looks as If a large number of taxpayers
had overlooked the cash in bank when
they swore to their holdings. No wonder
