The Texas Republic of San Antonio
Tex. Is making a vigorous canvass to
keep the ofIiceholders out of the Repub-
ican State Convention and let the peo-
pie have control of the Convention. This
crusade on the part of the Republican
meets with approval on the Demo
cratic side as to the management OF
their household, and many of the Demo
cratic papers are raising their voices
against allowing any officeho1der taking
a managing part in the Democratic
Convention.

1t is to be hoped that the advocates
of cheese-paring policy by the pres
ent Congress will not succeed. There
is an unusual amount of idle money in
the Treasury which should be taken
therefrom and redistributed to the peo-
pie in some form or another. Not only
should there be liberal enlargement
of pensions, but this is time when the
Government can well undertake broad
system of improvements keeping pace
with the country's rapid development.
There is strong need of more public
buildings, and the improvement of our
natural waterways upon scale COM
mensurate with the country's business
should be commenced and put upon q
permanent footing. A policy of this
kind will do more to restore confidence
and business activity than any other
action that the Government can take.

The statistics for the past year show

The statistics for the past year show
us again, and still more strikingly. how
small the proportion of wealth dug from
the mines is represented by gold and
silver. Our total output from the mines
last year will exceed $4,000. 100000, or
more than 10 times as much as that
dug out in 1870. During this time, while
we have doubled our output of gold and
silver, our coal has increased Is times,
petroleum nearly 80 times, iron about
20 times, and the output of copper has
grown from 1860 tons in 1870 to about
$4,000 tons last year. Still greater
than this is the lime, cement, slate,
phosphate. pottery, brick and tile out
put The State of Illinois. for example,
does not get an ounce of gold, silver or
copper from her mines, but her output
in lead. coal, brick. tile, etc, is worth
more than that from the California geld
mines.

story that Jefferson rode to the Capitol
alone and unattended to his inaugura-

and went in to take the oath of office
AS a fact, he was then living as Vice
President at a boarding house within a
stones throw of the Capitol, and walked
across the square to the Capitol escorted
by body of militia and accompanied
by the Secretaries of the Navy and
Treasury and number of Congressman.
Jefferson was in strong protest against
the stately ceremonies adopted by

claimed, savored too much of monarchy.

The excitement over the election of
a Jew and Free Mason as Mayor of
Rome continues, and the Roman Catho-
lie press seems to get more excited from
day to day, especially those in this
country. The Freeman's Journal, of
New York, which is even more alarmed
than the Italian press, denounces the
action as absurd, monstrous, anoma-
lous and incredible" The Osservatcre
Romano declares that the imposition on
Rome of a man who is an Israelite and
former Grand Master of Free Masons, is
a brutal and outrageous expression
and an insult to the Roman Catholics
thruout the world. Ernesto Nathan, the
Objectionable Mayor, is half English and
half Jew. His election, which was by
a vote of so to IL in the council, was
due to a coalition of all parties against
the Clericals and to prevent the latter
from evading the State laws in matters
of education and religion. 1t seems that
in spite of the laws the Clericals have
been conducting themselves very often
siyely in matters of education, and have
excited the resentment of all except the
extreme Blacks" and they have conse-
quently brought this thing upon them
selves by their bigotry and intolerance.

REPUBLICANS WILL
WIN SAYS TILDEN
EMINENT BARRISTER PREDICTS
THAT ESMERALDA WILL BE
LOST TO DEMOCRACY.

Augustus Tilden, one of the brilliant
legal lights of southern Nevada,
whose headquarters are at Goldfield,
was in the city yesterday. He is a
member of the firm of Douglass,
Pyne. and Tilden He is an ardent
Republican and will be a candidate
for district attorney of Esmeralda
county before the Republican county
convention, to succeed Attorney
Swallow. He predicts that Esmeral-
da will be in the Republican column
this year as the Democrats are hope
lessly divided and the Republicans
solidly united. Mr. Tilden thinks
that the Republicans will carry tn
state by a good sized majority and
the next legislature will elect a Re-
publican United States senator vice
Newlands.

PLAN BIG time
FOR REPUBLICANS

There's surely going to be .doings
when the Republican state conven-
ton meets in Goldfield on August %.
At last nights meeting of the county
central committee and the Republi-
can club, plans were outlined that in
sure a season of delight to the Ne
vada crowd that will swoop down
upon the busy little city known as
Goldfield, say the Tribune.
Autos, a banquet, a visit to the
mines and a number of surprises, the
character of which is not revealed at
this time, are on the program and
will be worked out by a competent
committee Senator Morehouse was
named as chairman of the reception
committee, J. F. Douglass of the ban
quet committee and ]. s. Corregan of
the decoration committee. The fin
eance committee appointed to raise
funds for the convention, reported
that it had so far collected $500,
and expected to gather in total oil
at least $4,000 within the next ten
days.
The Hippodrome theater has beer
engaged for the convention, and the
choice is considered excellent.

silver PARTY To
BRING OUT TICKET
COMsTOCK MEN WILL ACT RE.
CARELESS OF NEWLANDs
AND SHARON.

The silver party, the great party |
which swept Nevada time after time
and which the Democrats have been
endeavoring to swallow for the last
ten years, is not dead although badly
6ieerganized in many parts of the
state, says Virginia City dispatch to
the Carson News. The party was in
full power in Nevada, but the lead
ers of it were so repeatedly hood
winked and forgotten when it came
time for distribution of patronage
and pap, that the Democratic wing
of the organization finally assumed
full control and tried to, engulf the
organization. However, the silver
party on the Comstock will be in full
blossom this year and preparations
are now underway for the placing of
complete ticket in the field at the
coming election.
The men behind the movement are
neither Democrats or Republicans,
but earnest and sincere believers in
the silver cause. They point out that
the Democratic party no longer in
dorses the silver question, that Bryan
has wholly deserted the proposition
and therefore the fundamental prin-
ciple of the party can only be main
tanned and secured through the silver
organization. AS consequence
scores of the old-line and old-timers
of the party have assured the leade g
of the movement that they will stand
by the party, whether for success or
failure.
"The old fight will be made again,
said one of the local supporters IF
the cause this afternoon. Before the
silver party was founded in Nevada
and now we expect to begin the fight
again, this time on the Comtsock. We
have learned from bitter experience
that the Democrats were not sincere
when they came to our party; we will
never be caught again"
Interest is added to the matter be-
cause of the fact that Senator New
lands and his Nevada manager, w. E.
Sharon, want the silver party to
quietly die. Several days ago Mr..
Sharon sent word to the leaders of
the silver party that he and Senator
Newlands would not furnish any
money, any sinews for organization.
'Not cent for you; get in the DEM
ocratic line," Mr. Sharon is reported
to have said to the leaders. The
leaders, however, announce that they
do not need Newlands-Sharon.m money,
never expected or sought it. 1t is
planned to extend, the party organi-
cation to all parts of the state and the
silver party will have nigh its pristine
strength.
Sharon and Newlands are worried
over the outlook on the Comstock-
