LOOKS LIKE PARKER

AS the date of assembly of the Dem
ocratic national convention grows
nearer, all the signs point to the NOM
ination of Judge Parker on an early
ballot. The wisdom of the policy that
he has pursued is now more than ever
apparent. The racket raised about his
tons of political moment has not
prejudiced a voter 1t was started by
the Republican press and echoed by
the opponents of Parker in his own
party, but it is understood as purely
personal and Fictitious. The old adage
that silence is golden has doubly proved
itself in Judge Parker's case.
He has maintained the dignity of
judicial Office. He has saved himself
from the instant misrepresentation that
waited upon the first syllable that he
let fall from his lips Most of all, he
has pleased the country by an exhibit
ton of moral strength. The man who
could calmly adhere to his declared
policy in the face of such persistent
clamor. such entreaties for a word,
made by friends and enemies alike, is
man who knows his mind and can be
true to his own conclusions. In many
different ways Judge Parker is thou
sand times stronger man before the
people today than he was when his
candidacy was first announced.
The logic of facts points altogether
In his direction. The position of a can
didate against the field" is a danger
Gus one only when there is a field BY
this we mean that there must be in
opposition several other men with more
or less loyal followings, all of whose
forces are likely to combine when the
danger point is reached Judge Par
ker's great advantage is the actual abb
senoe of any other formidable candi-
date. If Mr.. Cleveland were actually in
the running, he could probably he
elected. But he has repeatedly re-
fused to permit the use of his name
and has expressed his hope that Judge
Parker will be named. All the other
men mentioned are merely possibili-
ties. Gray and German and Mcclellan
and Folk are names to conjure with
and any one of them would make an
unexceptionable candidate. The i'm
portam political fact is that not one
of them is making a campaign. NOT
one OF them goes into the convention
With any compact following. Not one
OF them is actively exerting himself to
obtain the nomination.
There is therefore, no large body of
men and no skilled leadership opposed
to Judge Parker. He is the one cen
tral and important figure He has
grown in reputation and in popular
strength day by day from the moment
that his name was put forward. In tba
absence OF counter attractions, the un-
instructed and unattached delegates
will gravitate steadily toward hin,
Unless the unexpected should happen.
and the convention will assemble To-
morrow, Judge Parker will be the DEM
ocratic nominee at st. Louis. We pre-
dict right here that the growing
strength with his own party, which
has followed every days canvass of
his qualifications, will be more than
matched by the growth of his strength
with the masses of the voters from the
day of his nomination until election.

A DEAD ISSUE

A DEAD ISSUE
One of the most gratifying conclu-
sions to be drawn from the nomination
of r. c. Dunn as Republican candidate
for governor is that the people of the
state of Minnesota are no longer to be
led around by the nose by any charla-
tan who raises the anti-corporation
cry. We have believed for long time
that the common people, the men who
do not make platforms or speeches,
and are seldom seen in conventions,
terests had been advanced by the
great railroad companies operating in
this state. Their quiet thought found
little expression, and their sane utter
ances were drowned in the noisy howl
of the demagogue. Nevertheless, their
opinions are as we have stated them.
The great reliance of the. statehouse
ring was ON the anti-merger issue.
We do not wonder that they credited it
with some wizard power, for they be-
lieved that it elected Van SAINT last
time; and anything which could ac-
complish that has to be studied as d
mystery, wholly outside the ken of
ordinary minds. The anti-merger cry
has been continued by this gang and
worked for all that it was worth. They
relied upon it confidently to give them
a majority in the state convention.
Now of all the candidates for gov
ernor, r. C. Dunn was the only one
who on this issue took rational. and
creditable stand. He had declared
himself long ago for the faithful exc
cution of all the laws of this state.
without favor on one side or persecu-
ton on the other. He did not run when
this position was assailed by those who
hate fairness and disbelieve in it in
politics. but in the midst of cam
paign reiterated his views with en-
phasis He would not stand as a mer-
ger buster any more than as merger
lover. He simply and sensibIy placed
the execution of the laws above favor
or prejudice. and determined to stand
or fall thereby.
Observe the result. Not only did the
demagogues who sought once more to
inflame the passions of the people on
this issue fail to carry their point, but
they failed most egregiously and disas<
trously exactly where they expected to
develop most strength. 1t is the resi-
dent of the country, the farmer, the
citizen of the small town, the little
shipper, to whom the appeal against
railroads, just because they are rail-
roads, was made. 1t was the remnant
of the old granger movement and of
the old Peoples party that was expect
ing to keep the capitol gang in power,
because they identified themselves so
conspicuously with the declaration that
this issue must remain the leading one.
1t was they who turned down the can
didate of the ring hard.
In the large cities this was to be ex-
pected. But it was the other sections
of the state. it was the country
districts, it was exactly the class of
men supposed to be most sensitive to
an anti-railroad issue, who voted for
Dunn first, last and all the time, and
would have. nominated him even had
both st. Paul and Minneapolis opposed
him. The issue is a happy one. The
astute politician will not fail to take
note of it. The anti-railroad clamor
has had its day in this state.

TONOPAH HORSE MARKET.
Draft Teams Sell for $4O0 and Cay
uses for $50.

Tonopah Sun, Nov. 90: The market
for horses in Tonopah, Goldfield and
all the adjacent new districts is at high
tide and the demand and prices better
than for a quarter of century in this
State. Nearly every day teams of
horses and mules are sold for $400 and
upwards, and these not the heaviest
draft animals. Cayuse ponies for light
travelling do not bring less than $50
each. and teams average from that up
to 5000 for the largest.
Horses are wanted for freighting to
Goldfield, for hauling shipments and
passengers to the Bull Frog country,
and for all the new districts that are
opening up. AS heavy a demand as
any is for mules and heavy draft
animals, but ponies for drawing light
wagons laden with prospectors' outfits
are also badly needed.

MADE FORTUNE In REvEILLE.
Herman Reischke Has Been Paid
$4,000 for His Mines.

Arecent letter from Herman Reischke
of Reveille, Nye County, to Will
J. Dooley of Salt Lake City, informs
the latter that he has received the final
payment of $4,000 on his mining prop
critics at Reveille, which he sold some
months ago to Thomas J. Lynch Of
Tonopah for $4,000. Mr.. Dooley is
well known to Nevadans through his
successful mining ventures at De
Lamar. Lincoln County, and at State
line. He went to Reveille q few years ago
and made several locations near those
acquired by Mr.. Reischke, and it is
said, he intends to begin work on his
property soon.
About twelve years ago Herman
Rieschke found his way into the old
Reveille district, did little prospect
ing, was encouraged and remained
there until he found his fortune. In
those twelve years of hardships he
managed to market enough ore to give
him a living and enable him to
develop part Of the ground he owned.
The property purchased by Mr.. Lynch
constitutes five locations. The princi.
pal claim of the group is called the
Last Chance, and has as fine showing
of ad.silver ore as can be found any.
where for the amount of work done.
When Mr.. Reischke effected the deal
on this group the shaft had depth Of
It's feet and was entirely in ore from
the surface. The shipments from this
property, marketed in Salt Lake and
San Francisco, made an average of 6t
per cent lead and A ounces silver
while the dump is entirely Of second
class ore.
Heretofore it has cost $20.wagon haul
railroad transportation, 80. 90. and treat
ment charges, s. per ton, which witt
settlement basis-i. e., a deduction o.
one cent per pound on the lead. ant
only settling for 80 per cent of tn,
market value of the lead and 95 pei
cent of the market value of the silver
is in itself a remarkable record for any
prospect. even though much mor'
favorably located.
The district is about eight miles Ions
and three miles wide well mineraliZe(
with many varieties of lead, silver an(
iron ores. 1t is district within th'
borders of the great state of Nevads

which the high average of 26 cents a
