NO USE FOR FUSION
Ledger Declares the Balloon
Bursted and Gas Escaped.

1t is indeed pleasing to note such a
change of heart as the following edi-
torial from the Ledger indicates, and
equally gratifying to know that such
an expression is the reflection of the
opinions and political belief of many
voters throughout Nevada:
1T looks to the Ledger as though
the inflated fusion balloon had burst
The honest men of Nevada can see
what a rotten political organization it
has developed into without straining
their eyesight. AS far as the Ledger
is concerned. it has no faith or con
fidence in some of the people who
pose as leaders of the fusion party
of Nevada Promises were made last
campaign only to be deliberately
broken, and the only thing that seems
to keep what is left of the Organiza-
ton today is the power of gold. The
leaders of the organization seem to
rely on the power of gold and have
great faith in commercial politics. 1t
has come to pass that no honest, con-
scientious man can endorse such work
and be true to himself and his state.
The State of Nevada can reap no
benefit from the fusion party. 1t has
won its last fight, for all honest men
who sees things as they exist have
retired from the fusion ranks and to-
day occupy independent political po-
sitions as far as state affairs are con
cerned. The Ledger editor has talk
ed with many people; he has been
feeling the public pulse for the past
sixty days, and he has ascertained
the sentiments of a large number of
gentlemen who supported the fusion
cause last campaign, who today eX-
press themselves as thoroughly dis
gusted with the fusion organization.
We are not stating things as they ex-
list to make capital for the republican
party. but simply giving out facts and
telling the unvarnished truth without
any coloring. 1t seems to us, and we
have had some experience with the
tribe, that the ratio in the fusion or
ganization is about sixteen CONNER
cial political agents to one honest man
who really believes in advocating
principles. II is with deep regret that
we find ourselves called upon to tell
the truth about the fusion organiza-
.tion as it exists in this State today.
In a nutshell, the timbers of the flu
sion craft are rotten from stem TO
stern and the old boat has sprung
leak and those of the crew who have
scented the danger have taken to their
silver canoes and landed upon the
solid rock of political independence
and are now silently watching the de-
cayed old fusion ship gradually sink
beneath the waters of the sea of polit-
ical oblivion"

James Quinn. was arrested last Fri day by Officer George Ghidester on a charge of grand larceny..pIt seems hat Quinn was given money by An iy Howard with which to, play. poker.
