An effort is being made in some of
our large cities to suppress that species
Of American freshness known as a
"masher. +" And they should be sup
pressed. Nothing is more degrading
to true manhood than to see a gang of
young bloods parading a street and
making goo goo eyes at every pretty
girl who passes. And yet this is the
daily occurrence, not only in the large
cities. but in the country town as we'll.
But are the young men only to blame?
We hardly think so. There are too
many young women out cunning for
Washers. If a young man wanders
out in the park on Sunday or an even
ing he is lucky if he gets out without
having eyes made at him by half a
dozen young girls who are just at the
flirting age. At picnics or Saturday
night dances a young man does not
have to make advances in order to get
acquainted with the girls. In fact,
the fault lies with both sexes, and the
sooner we teach our children to re-
spect honor and integrity in their
young days. and show them the advan-
tages of cultivating the nobler side of
life, the sooner we will make some ap-
preciable Roadway in the campaign
against the masher. He is a present
day evil, but we must begin at the
root of the evil in order to eliminate
him. Laws and ordinances will ac-
complish nothing. 1t must be born in
him.

a RAID ON THE TREASURY.

A bill has been introduced in the
Senate OF the Nevada Legislature by
Bell OF Nye county. under the euphe-
mistic title, "a Revenue Bill" Its
alleged object is to correct present taxa.
ton evils. Its real object is to create
lucrative positions for WORKOUT. dis
appointed, or superanuated politicians.
and enable them to feed at the public
crib at the expense Of the people.
II is a revenue bill. but the revenue
is not for the State, but for = couple of
hungry politicians and g clerk whom
they are authorized to employ at Q
salary of 5000 a year. The bill provides
for the creation of a State Board of
Equalization Of FIVE members, of whom
the Governor, Attorney-General and
State Controller are to be three, the
other two to be citizens appointed by
the Governor, TO serve four years at q
salary Of 81. 400 each and travelling ex-
penses. The three first named are TO
receive nothing additional to their pres
ent salaries, except travelling expenses.
Offices are to be fitted up and furnish.
ed for the Board over the State Print
ing Office, and the Board is to meet
there on the third Monday of each
month for the transaction of such bust.

The salaries fer the two appointed
members and their clerk for the four
years they are to serve aggregate s21,-
600 or S., 400 a year. Fitting up offices.
~janitor service and travelling expenses
will probably cost as much, SO that the
sum total win probably amount to from
$40, 900 to $50, 900, or from $40, 900 to

the three members first named should
do and are paid for doing.
This is economy with a vengeance,
and the bill should be entitled An Act
To Enable Office Holders to Loot the
Treasury and Plnnder the People.
The Fusion Legislature first showed
its idea of retrenchment by raising the
salaries of deputy State officers $500 q
year, and now to convince the people
that it means to practice the most rigid
economy, it has introduced a bill to en-
able the Governor to pay off the Fusion
party's political debts, and thereby
loot the State Treasury TO the tune Of
$40, 900 or s12 900 a year.

THE GOVERNORS MANSION.

swell" he said, such a bill puts me in

its money back. For my part, / don't think

or three years, but I am willing to pay $1,000
toward it If / don't occupy it six months. 1
do not think the State should go to the ex-
+, pense unless it comes back in the way / have
suggested"
The above interview taken from the
Carson Appeal shows thai Governor
Sparks wishes to do the fair thing by
the people and the State. 1t has the
ring OF honesty and sterling principle
about it.
It shows that the Governor does not
look upon the Office as a position to
make money out of, but as q place to
serve the people 10 and to promote the
business interests of the State. He
evidently regards q public Office as q
public trust, to be administered
economically in the interests of
the State and people. not for
his own agrandizement or for that of
professional politicians. Pursuing such
q course to the end. he will preserve
his self respect and retain the confidence
and esteem of his fellow citizens.
Nothing can be said against the prop
osition to build a suitable residence for
the Governor of the State, one in keep
ing with the honorable and responsible
position he holds, and which his sue
cessors of either party will hold; but
the Governors proposition that each
official occupant of the mansion pay a
rental of $500 q year, until the State
shall have been reimbursed for the out
lay, is based upon sound business prin-
ciples and fair dealing.
People of all parties must honor
Governor Sparks for his generous
actions thus far. and for the devotion
he has shown to their and the States
intoreeks.
