REPUBLICAN MEETING.

The Republican opening Of the
county campaign Tuesday night at the
Eureka Opera House was largely at
tended, but undoubtedly many more
would have been present had it not
been for the snow storm that prevailed
from The stage Of the Opera
House was appropriately decorated and
large posters bearing the Republican
Presidential candidates and Republican
notices were prominent. The Star
Band had been engaged for the occa-
sion, and after playing several patriotic
airs ON the street, interspersed the pro.
gramme Of the evening with musical
selections.
George s.. Nixon Of Winuemucca,
candidate for United States Senator,
and Frank H. Norcross of Reno, candi-
date for Supreme Judge, arrived in Eu.
reka on the Don train, and were the
orators of the evening.
County Chairman B. L. Smith pre-.
sided at the meeting and in a few words
introduced Mr.. Nixon as the first
speaker.
Mr.. Nixon was greeted in a manner
that showed he had not lost prestige
with the Republican party during his
utilization with the Silver party. He
presented the issues Of the day in a
clear and logical manner from a Re.
publican standpoint, and spoke with
the force and insistence BETTING a can
didate of the party for the highest office
within its gift.
He took up the history Of the Silver
party in Nevada, and retold the condi-
tons that existed when the people of
this State set aside all partisan feelings
and organized themselves as a whole to
fight for the restoration of silver in the
financial world. He stated that pre-
vious to the formation of the Silver
party he had visited Washington and
conferred with the leading bimetallists
Of the country, and after his return he
was instrumental in forming the new
party. He referred in words of praise
to the great work of George w. Cassi.

cause and at the memorable convention
of 1892. He told how the silver men

ton of his services, made him the Chair.
man of the Silver Party State Central
Committee, which position he held for
several years.
He recalled that it vas he who offered
the banner to the county polling the
largest Silver party vote, and that he
had the honor t deliver that banner to
the Hon. Thomas Wren for Eureka
County. That he served one term in
the Legislature as a representative from
Humboldt County, and that while
others had used the Silver party as a
side show to advance individual aims,
he had never done so. On the other
hand, he always was actively interested
in all the movements of the Silver party,
and that he yields to no man as a
stronger friend or ally Of the silver
cause, and that he would use his efforts
and influence with any party in its be-
half.
Mr.. Nixon claimed that the silver

question would right itself, and that its
stability must come from the Republi-
can party. He said he had remained
with the Silver party until the present
year. when recognizing that the posi-.
ton Of the Democratic party is on the
same basis as the Republican party on
the money question, he returned to the
ranks Of the latter. He asserted that
every interest of Nevada depended upon
Republican principles and the mainte-
n of a Republican administration.
Mr.. Nixon paid high tribute to Presi.
dent Roosevelt, and dwelt upon the
National issues. showing the necessity
why Nevada should help maintain the
present administration. He related an
instance when Mr.. Roosevelt said he
would rather have the three electoral
votes of Nevada that the electoral vote of
New York, if he could be elected without
the latter, as it would testify the ap.
probation of the people of his efforts to
build up the State.
The speaker recited his coming to Ne
vada as a poor boy. with rs cents as a
starting capital. He was employed as
telegraph operator at Belleville, a sta
ton on the Carson & Colorado Railroad
in Esmeralda County. Despite his
early drawbacks, he identified himself
with the interests of the State, and
worked out the problem of success that
illustrates his undertakings in different
parts Of Nevada. In conclusion, Mr..
Nixon said that if he were fortunate
enough to be selected to represent the
people in the United States Senate, he
would always be found at his post of
duty in Washington, earnestly and
faithfully working for the interest of
his State. and for the country at large.
and during the Congressional recess he
would be at home in Nevada attending
to his private business and comforting
with his constituents.
Mr.. Norcross vas next introduced by
Chairman Smith, and he took up the
National questions and analysed the
position Of the Republican party on the
problems that are interesting the citi.
zens of the republic. He paid q glow
ing eulogy to President Roosevelt and
his administration that in him the
people had nothing to fear, he has been
tried and not found wanting. He
spoke at length on the National Irriga.
ton Law, asserting that had Roosevelt
not been President, the country would
not have irrigation. He portrayed the
material benefits that have already
come to Nevada and the greater ones
the future will bring when the Govern.
ment irrigation works are completed.
He urged the election of Roosevelt and
Fairbanks, and asked that Nevada man.

and Congressman to Washington in

interesting problem is low large
Russian army the railway can support
in Ma lchuria. While the army is
south of Hardin food supplies can be
obtained in the country. but the farther
north it goes the more it must de-
pend on the railway. while the Japa-
nese will gain an advantage by hav-
ing an increased area to draw from.
The richest section of Manchuria is
the country of which Lao Yang is the
principal market and the crops are
large. Merchants believe If Kuropat-
kin should retreat to Hardin he must
bring nearly every pound of food by
railway, as this years crop in the Sum
gari valley has proved a failure. Be
sides this every horse must be brought
over the railway.
If winter campaigning is attempted
1T will become increasingly difficult
after December, because the ground
freezes to so great depth as to render
intrenching almost impossible.
The olganiZa ton of the Japanese
continues as efficient as since the
beginning. Most of the troops were
equipped with winter clothing when
the first cold weather and snow ar
rived.
The railway will be operated to Lao
Yang within week and through trains
running from Dalny and Newchwang.

Vice Admiral Doubasof enjoys the
highest esteem of the Russian army.
He is a man of the highest ability and

Doubasoff became famous during the
