THE PARTY ALL RIGHT.

The sincere friends of the Fusion
party in this State have no reason to
feel either dissatisfied with or discou-
ragged by the outlook for the future.
1t is, of course, possible that there
may be some changes in the details
of the organization with view to
closer union Of the constituent, ele-
ments but all such changes will make
for strength and not for weakness,
and there is no sign now marked in
the political sky which indicates that
Nevada will be anything else than
come
And why should there be such a
sign? The Fusion party, like all OF
her political organizations, doubtless
has made mistakes, but none of a Sc
rious character Speaking generally
it's record has been excellent. I'm
portant eceaomics have been introdu-
ced into the State administration, val
liable reforms in matters of taxation
have been made, the State govern
ment has been honest and clean IN all
its branches and. since the last cleo
ton of Senator Stewart. there has not
been the faintest whisper of scandal
in connection with the legislative de
an exceptionally good one Possibly
some things were done which ought
to have been left undone. and almost
certainly some things (which ought
to have been done were omitted
However that may be, it is conceded
on every hand that the mistakes. if
any were made were honest ones and
in most such cases there is ample
whether they actually were mis-
room tor differences of opinion as to
takes.
Political parties are always Judged
by the general trend of their policy
rather than by sporadic acts which
are the result of individual opinion.
Measured by any fair standard it is
hard to see wherein the Fusion party
has failed. Nor is there any wide
spread feeling that it has failed Here
and there we may find someone who is
dissatisfied and inclined to carp, but
as a rule the dissatisfa elton is the
outcome of perso-"' disappointment
in which the general public feels very
little concern.
In the strCr~'o fr patronage at
the hands C a party in power there
are always appointments. and real
or imaginary grievances. These
things are incidental to all party gov
eminent. 1t is impossible to CRAFTY
every desire or to supply every a.
bltiOn There are always M
pirants than there are " re q
filled, and frequent ..aces to b
think that tn -, those who ia
treated. IF have been bad
p'" ii some cases their cor
..4nts are just. while in others the
have no solid foundation.
But all such matters apart the F
sion party must stand or fall upt
it's general record, and if that recol
is not a good one then the Republics
press of the State has been very sic
in attempting to show wherein it
bad. The Fusion party is all right.

THE DREYFUS CASE AGAIN.

Interest in the Dreyfus case will be
again aroused by the appeal of that
unfortunate French soldier to the min
lister of war for reopening of that
celebrated inquiry. 1t will be remem-
bered that Dreyfus was first convict
ed in 1894. after a trial which clearly
showed that his conviction was a pre-.
arranged matter. In the presence Of
as large an assemblage of French
troops as could be mustered, Dreyfus
was forced to undergo the greatest
the most heartbreaking degradation
possible to soldier-his shoulder
straps were cut off and the buttons

Following this, Dreyfus, was sent to
DEVILS island where he was kept a
prisoner under the most humiliating
circumstances until 1899. Then, it hav-
ing been "discovered'' that his convic-
ton was unjust, that a great wrong
had been done to an innocent man.
he was brought back to Paris and
tried again. Again he was convicted
by perjured testimony in the face Of
overwhelming proofs of his innocence
Immediately afterd he was gracious
ly given a pardon, since which time
he has been living quietly in a ST.
burb of Paris.
Now he comes forward with a pass
ionate appeal for the reopening of his
case. 1t is extremely doubtful If Drey-
fus' request will be granted. And if it
granted, it is by no means certain
that his innocence will be proclaimed
Such proceedings would not have been
possible in any other republic in the
world except France 1t would not be
possible there except for the fact that
Dreyfus is a Jew. Class prejudice
twice caused the conviction OF an in
nocent man. and class prejudice is as
strong today in France as it was when
Dreyfus was first convicted.
AS regards this individual case it
may be true that the hatred has been
somewhat modified. because Dreyfus
has rallied to his support hundreds
of influential friends. Nevertheless, he
will run risks of another conviction
if he persists in a rehearing His most
powerful friend lola, has passed
away. That pleaders eloquent pen.
which did so much fro Dreyfus in his
dark years. is stilled forever and will
be sadly missed in any future pro-
ceedings.
1t is very much to hoped that the
case will be heard again and that
Dreyfus will be legally acquitted Of
the charge of being a traitor to his
country. Nobody. not even the men
who have prosecuted him. believes he
is guilty. The fact that he was pardon
ed does not remove the stain upoa
his character. A man cannot be par
doned for an offense of which he is
not guilty. The only way Dreyfus can
be exonerated is through a court pro-
cess. This he is entitled to and
| should receive it without delay.-Salt

DANGER IS NOT ALL PAST.

Hundred Soldiers Acting
as Peacemakers.
VERY LITTLE BUSINESS IS BEING DONE.
Trouble IL Feared when the Home
Company of MILITIA Disperse to
Their Homes and when the Flu
nernIS of the Nictin,s Occur-The
Death List VIII Reach Twelve.

Evansville, Ind. July 9.--This city
passed quiet night Tuesday night.
With 400 soldiers camped around the
courthouse and Jail and in the park,
any disposition toward lawlessness
was suppressed. Not a gun was fired
during the night, and no street gath
erings were seen.
Brighten. Mckee is practically in
control of the city. The troops will
be held here, it is believed, till
Thursday night or Friday morning,
No time for their return has been
fixed.
The Evansville company will be re
lieyed at once. When this company
scatters TO the homes of its members,
some trouble is feared in individual
eases, due to the feeling against the
troops. The general feeling among
business interests and influential citi-
zens is that the soldiers, in firing in
to the mob, only did what was neces-
sary and their duty.
Business is partially suspended, all
saloons are closed and business
houses have shut down.
Five funerals OF the victims viii be
held Thursday, 1t is believed there
will be three other deaths, at least,
making the total dead II or more.
The funerals of the Others have not
been fixed. The effect of the funerals
is dreaded, and another outbreak Is
feared.
