An Honor Bound Party.

Money Indebtedness was not the only
obligation we incurred and assumed in
the great civil war There was y still
greater debt, an everlasting obligation
that could never be paid In full. But
in the years that have followed the Re
publican party has inaugurated and de-
veloped pension laws under which over
SS,500,00oo00 have been paid to dis.
abled veterans or TO the survivors of
those who gave their lives for thcir
country and their flag. This pension
system. II product of-the policy of the
Republican party, has no precedent in
history and no equal in justice and
generosity among the nations of the
earth. And SO claim again that the
Republican party has always been Il
freedom loving party and an honor
bound party,-James s. sherman.

fell matters of the utmost Importance

THE TARIFF PLANK.
Nc Language Could Be Made Clearer
or STRONGER.

Referring to the tariff plank in she
Republican platform, the New York
Press says:
But IL there is TO be revision the Re
publica-l party does not propose any
thing that will sacrifice the employ
ment OF American labor or the legiti-
mate profits of American capital. No
language could be clearer and stronger
than this: In all tariff legislation the
true principle of protection is best
maintained by the imposition of such
duties as will equal the difference be-
tween the cost of production at home
and abroad. together with reasonable
profit to American industries"
Undoubtedly this is the conviction of
the American people. They know
what wealth and blessings they have
enjoyed under n tarn which has en-
abled Americans to earn their livings-
and better livings by far than any
foreigner has ever earncd-by making
for themselves whatever they consume
when it is possible for them to make it,
They must appreciate that the worst
disaster would could fail upon this
country would he for n stream of for
eign commerce TO come flooding over
our market, wipnC out American in
dustres, destroying the material
wealth in the factories and mills and
the potential wealth OF the employ
ment OF the American wage earners.
No war ever devastated country or
wrought the havoc TO people that
would be suffered in the United States
IL n commercial invasion by foreigners
should he allowed TO eNterminate our
home industries and strip our wage
earners. The whole or any part of
such invasion that could overwhelm
our producing agencies would he 0hso-
lutely prohibited by the continued en-
forcement of the policy which is re-
iterated in that tariff plank

BY INNINGS
THE siILIERs GAME.

The ball game between the Eagles
Elks and Millers at the mill tow
Sunday was of very classy nature.
many good plays being made bv
both sides. A large delegation of
rooters from Tonopah took advant-
age of the low excursion rate and
were very much in evidence at the
game From the start 1t looked
good for the Eagles-Elks, in the
sixth inning the score standing 5 to
3 in their favor In the fifth, Barr,
the pitcher of the mill team, was
substituted for Van. Barr was in
the best of form and struck out near
~ every man who faced him. Greer,
captain of the Millers team, played
second base in form that would put
many professionals to thinking. The
Eagles-Elks were handicapped by
not having catcher, Crockett was
placed in that position but was I'M
able to bold Hurd to any advantage.
Mr.. Crockett only played because of
the failure of the regular catcher to
appear.

and out for the sorrel that has been
giving exhibitions of fancy foot
work menacing the lives of Tono-
pah's inhabitants. Hereafter Pc
gasus will be hauling huge blocks of
ore from the Buckeye mine and his
return trip carrying provender for
the men who work in the property.
This is the result of a horse trade
between the steed's owner and Lee
son Ballet. The barter followed al
edict from the lips of Judge Brisseil
that if the Frenchman's horse ran
away again the county treasurer
would be richer by several stacks of
francs. the animal would be electro
cuted and Frenchy in the shadow of
the guillotine.
The ninth happened yesterday at
ternoon whenN Etchbarne. the owner
of the animal, stepped out of his
vehicle to deliver a package on
Brougher avenue. leaving the horse
unhitched. In a moment the amin al
made jump and landed between a
telegraph pole and the fence sur
rounding Tom Kendall's house. Tho
space being too narrow for the
wagon to pass through, and the
harness breaking enabled the animal
to clear himself from the vehicle.
The Frenchman ran out and catching
him by the bride was being whirle1
about the streets until bystanders
came to his assistance. Mr.. Kendall.
who had nearly been victim of the
animals actions on Saturday, an l
whose wife and child had also mar.
rowly escaped, rushed at the laundry
proprietor and pulling his whiskers,
proceeded to do little foot-work on
the seat of his trousers, at the same
time expressing his opinion that If
he had his deserts he would be given
six months in the county jail, while
his horse would be cutting those
kinds of capers in horse heaven.
Chief of Police Malley arrested
Etchbarne and he was taken before
his honor. Judge Brissell, who de-
livered him a good. sound lecture
and gave him the warning expressed
