ED. COURIER:

ED. OOthlEh.
Geo. s. Nixon has left the Silver
party and announces that he VIII mere
after affiliate with the Republican
party He says he believes he can oest
serve the interests of Nevada WITHIN
the Republican party. Mr.. Nixon Is
an able and bright man. In all matters
in which the Southern Pacific Railroad
Company's interests are Identical with
the interests of the State, Mr.. Nixon
is as true Nevadan as any other per-
son in the State. But when it comes
down to taxation and discrimination
AGAINST the State in the matter of fares
and freights, he, as the agent oil the
Company, opposes the interests of the
State at large in favor of the company.
In short, the company becomes the
whole State from his view point. lie
would not occupy the position he does
if he acted differently. When the
great majority of the voters OF the
State broke away from their political
ties in 1892 and formed third party,
the late G. c. Wallace, who occupied
the position now occupied by Mr.
Nixon with the company, also went
wild and buzzed silver from morning
till night. He was not going to be
left in any minority party. lie went
along with the voters. He could not
represent his company and advance its
interests through the medium of a
minority party. So, he joined the new
party and brought over with him the
company's influence and voting
strength. The company never owned
any more subservient Legislatures
prior to 1892 During the last six years
they have managed to squelch all COM
plants against their determinations
against Nevada, and in 1908 they cap
ed the climax by having passed our
new revenue laws. The company GER
tainly desires to perpetuate those laws,
and with Mr.. Nixon in the Republican
party, it must expect to perpetuate
them through that party, because it
would be hardly fair to expect him to
boss a Silver party Legislature after
this. He cannot expect that Silver
party Legislature will damn itself any
further at his behest. So, claim that
henceforth we can expect purer things
of the Silver party than heretofore,
and we can expect the bad things from
the Republican party. But what is
the legitimate conclusion to be drawn
from the change of base of operations
by Mr.. Nixon? 1t means that himself
and those he represents have conclud-
ed that it will be cheaper and safer
this year to elect Republican Legis-
lature than a Fusion Legislature, and
unless there is another political stam-
pede between now and the nominating
conventions, the weight of the COM
pany will be thrown with the Repub-
licans this year This all reminds me
of beautiful passage from Sandy
Baldwin's political code: mo damn
ed party can flop any quicker than |

The labor Unions are demanding
national legislation toprevent Chinese
from being employed in digging the
Panama canal. The building of the
Panama railroad cost one life for every
tie laid. All there is to do is to let the
Chinese know that fact, and the wiley
Mongol will let the white man dig it.
Legislation of that sort must have its
fountain head in the railroad offices.
We find that Panama has already put
up the bars against cheap labor both
in Europe and China. Competent
white labor is not over plentiful in
America now, and it would be exceed
ingly difficult to get enough to dig the
canal Unable to stop the government
from building the canal, the roads are
now trying to prevent it from obtain
ing laborers to do the work, and they
are trying to do it through labor organ
izations, which otherwise they are
trying to crush out of existence.
The most scathing estimate of the
character of M. A. Hanna which have
read appears in the Boston Herald
and reprinted in the Reno Journal:
''There is reason to believe that he
was deliberately corrupter of public
morals in the use he made of money
and of public offices to secure person
al and party victories. His first re
quirement in campaign was vas
fund of money, and his second wa
authority to distribute official rewards
in case of success. Both of thes,
means of influencing voters he uset
lavishly, with no apparent regard TO
the necessarily debasing influence o
such campaigning. Men whom in hi
private business he would surely hav,
no commerce with he willingly EN-
ployed as political agents, and foistet
upon the government as pensioners o
the treasury, although their holdin,
Office was a scandal and degradation
of the honor of the nation. He care,
not for this, provided they had deliv
cred the votes for which they had re
eeived such payment"
This is a terrible indictment of tn
methods adopted by apolitical part.

GRANT BEATEN AT BULL RUN.
General Bell in Command Of the
Browns Puts 1t All Over Blues.

GAINESVILLE, Sept. 9.-The first
battle of Bull Run has been repeated.
General Bell, commanding the browns,
this morning won a great victory over
Grants blues, which he found shortly
after daybreak strongly entrenched on
the old Bull Run battlefield. BY

for his defeat of Tuesday. ..
The battle began with full forces at

two miles, driving the skirmish lines
of the blues back on their main line at
Henry farm house and across Bull Run.
The blues then occupied what appeared
TO be an impregnable position as theo-

bridges. One brigade Of browns was
nearly annihilated, but inflicted severe
loss on the blues.

NEWPORT, r. l., Sept. S.-The
great anxiety which Mrs. Ogden Goe-
she reported to the police that her
jewels were missing and the day on
