Domocrals in Nye county arc as badly split as is (he parly in Esmeralda couri- ty. It is tho Bakor-McFadden crowd i against the Cole faction. Here is the liuc-up for counl3" oflic.es at the hands of the Democrats of Es-fralls; Es-fralls; district attorney. If. L. Hubbard or A. Jl. Swallow: county clerk, Ed. Hardy; recorder Oeorce Brodian. tfTho real issue in the coming cam- paipn,' says tho Tonopah Miner, "is what is known as tho state police bill and tho altitude of tho candidates toward its enforcement. For the active part ho took in the passage of this bill our conprossmau, I Ton. Goorpe A. Bartlctt, has lieou made the. butt of much fervid denunciation at tho hands of those who scotn to think that their rights and liberties lib-erties aro thereby interfered with and abridged. But in tho faeo of this bit lerncHs and tho threat that ho would lose tho state, Mr. Bartlctt reiterates his allegiance fo and support of tho measure, tho enforcement of which has brought, tho industrial peace which now reigns in tho place of turbulence and disorder." . A Chinaman registered in Jfeno tho other day, and a dispatch sent out from that place says that ho is the first that over registered in tho state to vote. This is hardly correct, says tho Winnc-niucca Winnc-niucca Star. Four Chinese, native-born citizens, registered in Winncmucca and voted two years ago. Thrco of them aro now residents of that city and will voto at the coming election. Hero is what tho Bullfrog Miner says about the recent Democratic stato convention: Tho State convention of tho Democratic Democrat-ic party of Nevada, held this week in Tonopah was a notablo Catherine, characterized char-acterized by much enthusiasm and a good deal of acrimony. Tho bonca of contention conten-tion were Congressman George A. Bartlctt Bart-lctt nnd tho Stato pollco bill. Tho line of tho forces won Bartlctt and antl-Burt-lett. Tho battle was fnst, furious and continuous for throe days one? nights. It was a Bartlctt convention. Mr. Bart-lot Bart-lot t waa renominated. Tho platform In relation to the police bill, as finally ndoptod, is wlso and rational, and will commend Itself to all fair-minded and thlnkliiK voters. Tho platform's utterances utter-ances 'upon other matters aro strong: nnd patriotic. Tho ticket Is made up of clean, honest, capable men. Tho Miner has differed dif-fered with Mr. Bartlctt upon some of his policies, but wo aro not now goinc: to hold any post-mortcnm, and tho differences differ-ences referred to will not prevent us from giving1 Mr. Bnrtlett nnd tho whole ticket our hearty support. "Wo reserve the right, however, to make such criticisms from tlmo to time as tho Interests of tho party and the peoplo would, in our judgment, judg-ment, seem to demand. |
