UNITED STATES sENAToRsHlP.

We congratulate the people of Nevada upon the
awakening of her prosperity in field and mine
and that the hour is struck which closes quar-
ter of a century of State depression, That the
dawn has begun ot wherein this COM
monwealth is destined to take high rank i'll agri-
culture the industries and mining. New leaders
are called for to represent in Congress this new
spirit of State development. For the Senate of
the United States the Republican party presents
the name of Hon. George ). Nixon as an able
true and loyal citizen worthy of such choice, ia
miliar with and interested in the varied indus
tries of our State, and who is the first candidate
for that supreme Office presented by Nevada
convention in the past twenty years who is bona
ide resident and citizen of Nevada, and pledges
the efforts of the Republican party to use all hon
orable means, and the votes of its members in
the State Iegislature. to secure his election.

Political Paragraphs

y
er was secured by crooked and in
defensible methods.-W. ]. BIyan.
The nomination of Judge Park
er virtually nullifies the antitrust
plank in the Democratic platform.
w. ]. Bryan.
Is there a miner in this county
who will not consider it an honor
to vote for Jim Butler, the Daddy
of Tonopah?"
A vote for the Republican Leg
islative ticket is a vote to send a
United States Senator the Wash
ington who will help Roosevelt.
The labor plank in the Demo
cratic platform, as prepared by
! Judge Parker's friends on the sub
committee, was a straddling, mean
ingless plank.-W. J. Bryan.
Jim Yerington has never been
mixed up in any dishonorable
mining deals, nor has his honesty
ever been questioned. He don't
owe a miner who ever worked
for him dollar. Van Duzer new
er had but few men work for him
that he does not still owe.
w. l. Plumb, the Republican
nominee for Presidential Elector,
is the President of the Tuscarora
Miners Union, and one of the
most steadfast friends or labor in
the State. Do you think you will
make a mistake by voting for him,
Mr. Miner or Laboring Man?
A vote for Con Ahern for Presi-
dental Elector is a vote for
hustler for Nevada. Cons time
: and money has always been at the
disposal Of the party and it will
be the proudest day of his life to
go back to Washington and cast
the vote of Nevada for Roosevelt
and Fairbanks.
A vote for Frank Norcross for
Supreme Judge is vote for ma
tive son, an able young man whom
the bar of the State highly re-
spects, who is not political dab
bier, and who would owe allegi-
ance to no political boss should he
be selected to fill the high and
honorable position to which he
aspires.
f. G. Newland turned down the
proposition to reclaim large tract
of land in Humboldt county some
years ago by private enterprise.
George Nixon and three associates
reclaimed this land and have 3o,-
900 acres of land as fine as any i'll
the world This land will be be
cut up some day and sold to small
farmers. Which of the two men
would be most likely to do the
most hustling in the United States
Senate for Nevada?
Some of H. F. Bartine's Demo
cratic friends (?) are now stating
that he was twice in reach of the
nomination for Supreme Judge by
the Republican party Strange
how much they know about other
peoples affairs. Bartine never
was considered a possibility for
the Supreme Judgship by the Re
publicans. He did exceedingly

STATE INSTITUTIONS.

We favor the economic conduct of the State
government, the generous treatment OF the or
phan wards of the State and the humane care of
the insane. We are Justly proud of public
school system and the State University and will
favor all reasonable propositions calculated to i'm
prove their efficiency and usefulness.

NATIONAL IRRIGATION.

We congratulate the people of the State of Ne
vada upon the passage of the national irrigation
law which will ultimately reclaim the arid lands
of the West and which will within a few years
transform the desert wastes of Nevada into fruit
full homesteads. We assert that the attempt 10
steal the credit of this great act for one man is
travesty on fact and justice To thousands OF
western citizens who have agitated this subject,
to the western Senators and Congressman who
for twenty-five years have persistently urged and
fought for irrigation legislation, and to the engi-
neers who have measured the western streams
which thread the mountains and deserts to learn
the possibilities of storage and reclamation we
give due and generous credit and the fullness OF
our gratitude. But above all we declare that the
ringing and insstent recommendation OF Theo-
dore Roosevelt that Congress consider this sub
ject was responsible for the crystalzation of all
theories and plans into the bill known as the
National Irrigation Law, which was framed and
agreed to by all western Senators and Congress
men, and introduced simultaneously in the Senate
and House, and which would have failed i'll the
House had not Theodore Roosevelt finally
brought his great influence to bear to secure its

ISTHMlAN CANAL.

We rejoice in the requirement by the United
States of sufficient isthmian territory upon which
to excavate, construct and operate commercial
canal between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans en-
tirely regulated and controlled by the govern
ment of the United States, and which will greatly
promote the industrial development of all sec
tions of the Pacific Coast and especially re-
gret that Senator Francis G. Newlands so far for
got the substantial interests of the State of Neva-
da as to interpose his vote i'll the Senate of the
United States against the ratification of the treaty
between the United States and the Republic OF
Panama in a vain attempt to interdict the build
ing of such canal

INVITATION TO SILVER REPUBLICANS

Recognizing the fact that many of the most pat
riotic and progressive citizens of the State of
Nevada have for several years past cast their bal.
lots against the Republican ticket because of their
disbelief in the financial views OF the national
Republican party although being in accord with
it upon all other principles of party policy, we
now in view of the fact that there is no issue be-
tween the national parties upon the subject of
finance cordially invite all such fellow citizens to
renew their political fellowship with and to
share with us in the glories of our certain victory
at the coming general election.

CAPITAL AND LABOR.

We submit the labor record of the Republican
party against the professions of Democracy. Re-
publicanism has built up tariff wall about this
country which gives the American markets to the
products of American labor. II has in every
State where in power enacted legislation favoring
shorter hours and sanitary conditions for labor,
prohibited child labor, and passed stringent laws
for the safeguarding of the life and limb OF en-
poyes II has, under Theodore Roosevelt, as in
the coal strike substituted arbitration for the
bullet and bayonet of the last Democratic admin
istration in its settlement of the Pullman strike
Promising little, performing much, it has been
the true and tried friend of both capital and Ia
Dor whom it holds equal and concordant parts
of the nations industrial economy. The Repub-
can party will not support capital in oppression
ror labor in violence. 1t recognizes organized
labor as the unity of industrial action striving to
secure more equitable distribution of the fruits

Last Wednesday evening the mem bers of Hose Companies l,2 and 3, of the Douglas Fire Department and some of the Fire boys from Treadwell, met at the Cart house on Second street.

A fire department and hose team was organized at Treadwell last night. The meeting for the purpose of organiza- tion was held at the Treadwell Board ing House, and, as starter, about 20 men were enrolled. Chief Mcdonald and some of the members of the Doug las Fire Department attended the meeting. The new organization starts out with the following officers: Presi- dent, Harry Barrackman; Vice Presi- dent, Phil. F. Thom; Secretary, Dave Judson; Treasurer, Hugh McRae; Chief, Harry Tretton; Foreman, Geo. Biers.

Peter R. Sogge.

D1ED-At Douglas City, Alaska, Sun day, June 19, 1904, Peter R. Sogge, a native of Swindalen, Norway, aged 40 years. The Funeral services were held at the Congregational church, on Tues day, June 21, at ? o'clock, p. m. Rev. Coyle officiating. The interment was at the Douglas Cemetery.
 Peter R. Sogge came to Douglas Island about eight years ago. His first employment was in the 700 tunnel at Treadwell, where, few days after he began work an explosion occurred, by which he was severely injured. After his recovery from the results of this accident he was given employment again by the Company, as night'watch- mau, in which capacity he served fai th- fully up to the time of bis last illness. The disease from which he suffered was consumption, and it's insiduous. progress deceived him and his friendsi few realized that he was so near the end. In fact, he had made preparations to go to the States on the Dolphin, but he failed so rapidly that it was impos- sible. About year ago he made visit to his old home in Norway and without knowing it took his last look at the scenes of his childhood.

THE HAGUE VERDICT
SuStalns Contention of the
Powers Against Venezuela.
AWARD is FINALLY MADE
England, Germany and Italy ire Grant
ed Thirty Per cent Preference
Of customs-Unlted States
Given Duty to Perform,

The arbitration tribunal at The
Hague. which has been considering the
claims Of the blockadlng powers for
preferential treatment OF their claim
against Venezuela, has decided unanl.
mously that the three blockading pow.
ers, Great Britain, Germany and Italy,
have the right to a preference Of 30
per cent Of the customs duties at Guia..
ra and Puerto Cabello, the litigants to
pay their own costs in the procedure
and divide equally the costs Of the
tribunal.
The United States is commissioned
to carry out the decision OF the tri-
bunal within three months.
In giving judgment, the tribunal
points out that 1t has been guided by
international law and the equity Of the
case and that the protocols signed at
Washington since February 10, 1908,
and particularly the protocol of May 7,
whereof the obligatory nature cannot
be doubtful, form the legal basis of its
sentence; that the tribunal Is not
much competent to judge the jurls
dictlon Of the mixed commission at
Caracas, nor to Judge their action or
character Of the warlike operations OF
the blockading powers. nor to decide
II the three blockading powers exhaust
ed all pacific means to prevent the
necessity for employing force, The
tribunal decides that It Is only ia a po.
sltlon to certify that since 1901 Vene.
zuela refused arbitration proposed on
several occasions by Germany and
England; that after the war no formal
treaty OF peace was concluded; that
the operations Of the blockaders we're
stopped before they had received sat
isfaction for all their claims, and fur
Their that the question of preferential
treatment was submitted to arbltra-
tion The tribunal declares that It
ound and recognized in those facts
precious evidence In favor OF the great
principle OF arbitration In all phases
Of international conflict.
The United States Is charged mere
ly to supervise the carrying out Of the
decision regarding costs.
