entirely different solution, according
to the story of this morning.
There was man named Bill Win

WASHINGTON, July S.-Senator
Newlands has taken most promin.
ent part in the discussion OF the tar
! if bill since its Introduction into the
senate. Realizing that the Democra
tic party to which he belongs, is in
! such min GRITTY in the Senate, even
with the insurgent senators, that his
views can gain no concrete express
sion, he has devoted his whole time
in calling attention to the obvious
breaches of trust made By the Re
publican senators and has advised
repeatedly in the broadest, states
manllke way upon matters that are
certain TO come again before the peo-
pie of the country.
Yesterday, in speaking on the tariff
bin he said:
No material changes can now be
made in the bill and the only ques-
ton before us is whether we may
not, by some general provisions plant
the seed of a rational tariff system
under which excessive tariff duties
may be gradually reduced and the &
tariff taken out of politics.
THE Senate has now been in con-
tinuOus session for 80 days over |,
these tariff schedules, but the legis- !
latiOn thus far shaped is almost of !
barren results in accomplishing what I
the President has in view-an honest
revision of the tariff, following the
rule laid down by the Republican
platform.
AS the Senate has made practical
" no reduction all that conference
could accomplish would be acquies-
cence in the moderate reduction of
he Payne bill, so that the conference
presents an opportunity for little re

THE tariff is not piece of origin

'd to correct the abuses of an exist

Penrod was one of the original own
ers of the Comstock Lode and has
been in Virginia City the past week

the wash dipped down into the earth

says he expects to live long enough

brothers, who were the original dis
coverers OF precious metal in what
is now Silver City canyon. These
men were metaliurgists OF note in
those days and they knew after a
lew tests OF The black looking stone

struck silver i'll big quantities. ALI
