1t is generally understood and believed,
that after the adjournment of the Legislature
in March, 1895, Lieutenant Governor Sadler
declared to Governor Jones that be was a Re-
publican and no longer a member Of the Silver
Party. This statement was made in the Gov
ernors Office, and at a later meeting OF the
Capitol Commissioner. Upon a public stand
in Eureka, some days later, he made a similar
declaration. When did be get back to the
Silver Party, or is he yet q Republican!
TIE Governor Shirked.
Elko Independent, March 30, 1899: The
bill creating the office Of Livestock Inspector
has become a law without the Governors
signature. This is another evidence that the
ways of our Governor in regard to bills passed
by the Legislature are mysterious and past
finding out. the Independent is informed
that the principal cattlemen of the State re-
quested the Governor to veto the bill because
it placed every man engaged in the livestock
industry at the mercy Of his enemies and Gre
ated . useless office. Their protests seem to
have had the effect Of making Lin dodge the
issue and let the bill become a law.
The Lieutenant Governor Salary Steal.
ALT Chartz in Genoa Courier: The Califor-
mia Legislature passed a bill raising the salary
Of the Superior Judge Of Tuolumne county.
Governor Gage vetoed the bill and gave as his
reason that when the Judge of Tuolumne
county ran for the office, he knew what his
salary was going to be, and he entered into a
contract with the people to fill the Office for
the amount named. For that reason his sal
airy should not be raised. Jim Judge, Attor-
ney-General of Nevada, got his salary raised
$500 a year by lobbying a bill through for
his own benefit, and Governor Sadler has APP
proved the bill.
Nye County WIN Remember Mr.. Sadier.
Belmont, Nevada, Courier, January &c,
1901 A petition was sent to Governor Sad
Ter signed by taxpayers of Nye county, asking
him to appoint a Eureka man as Judge Of the
Third Judicial District. This makes several
petitions sent to the Governor at different
times from Nye county and he has never paid
any attention to any Of them. He must re-
member that he was elected by only twenty
votes two years ago, and we are sure that Nye
county will remember Mr.. Sadler the next
time he asks for a State Office. We have moth
ing against Mr.. Jones, and congratulate him
on his success, but he was not a choice of the
majority Of the people for District Judge of
this district.
The appointment of DIR. Patterson.
In the report Of the Silver Party State Gen.
trial Committee proceedings in Reno on April
IL, 1900, published in the Virginia City Re-
port, occurred the fOll0Wlng:
1.-The reference to proxy holders seemed to
touch Governor Sadler on the raw, and he
turned loose a torrent of mangled eloquence,
but did not have very much to say after the in
ouisitive member from Storey called attentinn
to the fact that the two loudest- mouthed advo-
Gates Of the Wallace resolution were Wallace
himself and Governor Sadler, and inquired of
these two eloquent gentlemen who was it that
was most Instrumental in electing Or. Patter-
son, a gold bug Republican, to the superin-
tendency Of the State Insane Asylum.
Neither of the interesting pair made any re.
ply to this very pertinent question"
Sadler,s Veto of the Constitutional
Contention Act.
The picaninny in the woodpile is found in
the vote by which the bill passed the Assem-
bly,, "yeas 81, nays 5. absent IT," making a
total membership of 43 in the lower branch Of
the Legislature. This may have been care
lessness on the part of the clerk whose duty it
was to transcribe the history of the bill, but
it is difficult to see how such an error could
escape detection by the Chairman of the En-
rolling Committee, whose duty it was to com-
pare the enrolled bill with the original. The
more the matter is studied the more it looks
like crooked work some where. The defeat of
this measure, one of the few of the real bene-
fits to the people passed by the last Legisla-
ture, adds another infamy to the Lottery bill,
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS larceny, and the
petty steal of the Deputy State Treasurer.
These are enough to damn the Silver party
forever.-Elko Independent.
What does the Independent think of a
Governor who would veto a bill on a trihing
clerical error, whether intentional or other
wise, when its history showed that it had
been voted upon and passed by a two
thirds majority in both houses? Many peo-
pie wondered at the time why Mr.. Wallace
permitted the bill to pass, when he could so
easily have defeated it in the Legislature.
The wonderment has ceased and the matter
is as plain as the hind of the tail of a
goat going up hill. Ample arrangement had
been made for killing it after its passage and
after tire adjournment Of the Legislature
Reno Journal.
Well, it might have been expected Sadler
has vetoed the Act of the late Legislature
which provided for the people to vote on the
question of holding a Constitutional Conven-
ton. A great many people were congratu.
lating themselves on the fact that the Legis-
lature had done one act which would lead to
good results in the State, and now this Act
has been made useless. Great is the rule of
Nevada politicians who pay no taxes.-Lyon
