receive tor the columns of this paper THE The editor of the JOURNAL was not a member of the last State Convention is he a member of the State Central Committee He is no more authorized to give the Convention to Carson than any other Washoe county The editor of the JOURNAL claims no more tban any other Republican in Washoe county He never has He has however probably done as much for the Republican party as the editor the or any other Republican in Washoe county He probably did as much too to induce the State Central Committee to select Reno as the place for holding the Convention But he would not asked the Committee to favor had he known positively that the last State Convention passed a resolution declaring that all future Con- unless otherwise ordered should be held at Carson He baa stated that if such a resolution was adopted Carson was entitled to the Convention He still holds to that opinion He has never asked anything for Reno that he believed she was not justly entitled and he does not now be- lieve that Reno wants anything to which the is not entitled Reno no doubt would like to have tho Convention and the hopes that Carson will be magnanimous and under the circum- stances let Reno hare it But when it comes to the question of right or wrong if Carson can prove that the resolution referred to was actually adopted by the Convention then Carson is in the right in claiming the Convention and ought if the claim is insisted to yield and to yield too gracefully and unselfishly THE UTAH It is understood that the President in five Commissioners for Utah Territory will nominate only lawyers believing good lawyers to be required to properly explain the new law governing the Territory It is stated several ing citizens of Utah have already been recommended to the President but it is not likely that any one from Mormon or be appointed It is further reported that the President has intimated that he will not nominate one who applies either directly or indirectly for a position as The Gold Hill News declares that if this is the determination of the dent it is most sensible and will be of material help to him in dealing with the vexed question While good tions may be made in Utah it is a wise conclusion to select non-residents ol that Territory A most impartial mission will find the task a difficult one while were it composed of men from the factions warring in Utah for years ob- to the law's enforcement would be increased The would like to see W H one of the Commissioners more particularly be cause Mr Dickson contemplates mak ing Utah his future home and is a No 1 lawyer would have a dual incentive to discharge the duties of the position in a proper manner There ave already booked for passage to this country in 1882 nearly a half million people it is estimated that will emigrate from Europe and Canada to the West and Northwest lu consequence of this vast throng the Lea Chicago Rock Island has been compelled to put upon Us line an tional fast express train composed of most elegant clay and night cars leaving Chicago at 11 A M and reaching apolis early the next morning in ample time to those going to Northern Minnesota or Manitoba to ob- ain their breakfast and make the con- for all points North or west This train is run especially to connect with the new express trains which the Northern Pacific and St Paul apolis and Manitoba Railroads the alter connecting with the Canadian at St Vincent have just put upon heir lines The regular evening express train rom Chicago will be run as heretofore md make the evening connections from Minneapolis for all points in the iOry named above It is important and travelers should bear it in mind that there are no riage transfers by the Albert Lea passengers being landed in Union Depots at Minneapolis and St Paul This is the route to travel over for sure connections and is the nd most comfortable line to the west The trains of the Albert Lea Route eave Chicago from the

it in the House than in the Senate thire being 65 Republican and 102 Democratic recorded in the affirmative and 61 Republicans and 4 Democrats n the negative The vote on Kasson's Amendment to reduce the term of jension to ten years was made as In favor of the amendment 95 Republicans and 5 Democrats against the amendment 34 Republicans and 97 Democrats In these statements the seven or eight Greenback and dent members who voted are classified according to customary affiliations on political questions other than cial and no account is taken of the members who wore paired or who dodged voting on either side The minority report of the House Committee on Territories says that the effort to secure tha admission of Dakota as a State was purely a political ment agitated exclusively in

said a few words in and retired The same compliments were tendered also to the President and the numbers of the Cabinet Another Railroad Pool From an indisputable source it is that although the Chicago Burlington and Railroad has completed its Denver extension ing eighty-five miles there is between that road and the Union Pacific a tual desire for peace At a conference held Monday a pooling arrangement was est of certain politicians who are ing to accomplish their ambitious de- signs and that of those who appeared in Washington in behalf of admission not one was an agriculturist The in-

GREAT POET Tie Port ol the Affections Alike lu Palace and the Collate Yours of A Noble Life Crowned with Fame and fection One of sweetest songsters no more TUe voice thai enchanted millions is silent in the tomb The tongue from which melody us the laughing brook gurgles over the stones bus been stopped forever The pen electrical with music and rhythm has dropped from the nerveless hand The heart which beat responsive to tbe sweetest holiest thoughts of manity is cold Henry W Longfellow is dead No boys of the victorious dier crowned hia brow BO plaudits of the inconstant rabble cheered the knightly statesman no purple robes clothed the kingly form The laurels he wore were higher than these the plause nobler the clothing more be- fitting a godlike form He was crowned a king in the hearts of the people and revered wherever the melody of his music mingled with the harmonies of nature In the palace as by the tage fireside wherever the English guage was spoken the king and tbe peasant alike built for him au altar in their hearts of hearts In smoky don as well as in quiet Cambridge his touching poems were as household words and a Queen upon the throne of England has not been ashamed to show her admiration and affection for one who was the poetical god of the un- tutored lumberman in the pine forests of Maine His reward has not been the unthinking huzzas of the unthinking mob not the wild of day which gives place to the indifference and neglect of to-morrow His was not the sputtering fizz and ephemeral blaze of the sky rocket which lightens up the heavens for an instant and then is lost to sight forever but rather the steady pure undying light of the beacon lamp which to herald its own vanity and power but rather to be as an unfailing guide to others The ments in which bis soul was clothed were those of divine harmonies each threnody woven from the woof of his own sweetly poetic nature His reward has been more than knightly the tion he has planted in the hearts of manity more than kingly and the crown he will wear in the great hereafter will far surpass that of Kaiser or Czar A Henry Wadsworth Longfellow an American poet was born in Portland Maine February 1807 He was the son of Stephen Longfellow an nent lawyer of that city At the age of 14 he entered Bowdoin College where he graduated in 1825 During his demic course he composed several of the best known of his earlier poems among them the Hymn of the vian The Spirit of Woods in and Sunrise on the Hills After leaving college he en- tered the office of his father for the pose of studying law hut in 1826 he an offer of the professorship of modem languages and literature in Bowdoin College privilege of devoting some time to preliminary for- eign study and early in the year sailed for Europe He remained abroad till 1829 studying successively in France Spain Italy and Germany and after- ward discharged the duties of his pro for five years During this time he contributed to the North ican and published his tion of the Coplas de and his His shorter poems were already numerous at this period though as yet no collection of them hac been made In 1835 on the resignation of Mr George Ticknor he was pointed professor of modern languages and Belles Lettres in Harvard ity and before entering actively upon the duties of the office he again visited Europe returning in 1836 He then assumed the professorship which he held for 17 years during which no only his official but literary labors remarkably uninterrupted and fruitful The Summer of 1842 was passed a Boppard on the In 1852 he re signed but continued to reside at Cam bridge in the house formerly occupied by Washington In he revisited Europe and was everywhere the ient of marked honors especially in England where his works are more universally known and read than those of any other American author During this journey the degree of D 0 L was conferred upon him by Oiforc University He had already the degree of LL D from Harvard in 1859 and that of D 0 L from Cam thus a gem No better example f this could be hnd than his In the town of Bruges In that quaint old Flemish city As tho evening shades descended Low loud and sweetly blended Low lit times and loud ot times And changing fts a poet's rhymes Eang the beautiful wild chimes Prom the belfry m the market Ot the of Bruges Nor is he at all wanting in vivid rs of description as witness heard the trailing garments of the Night Sweep through her marble saw her sable skirts all fringed with light From the celestial Nor in pictures of nature in her iest moods as On slope and beechen swell The shadowed light fell And where the maple's leaf was brown With soft and silent lapse earns down The glory that the wood At sunset in its golden leaves In his translations Longfellow was happy infusing into his tales ot only the ideas but the very spirit nd essence of the original Probably ie best of these is that on Italy com- Italy I thou doomed to wear The fatal gift of beauty and possess The dower infinite wretchedness Written upon thy forehead by despair His tales are stirring and ringing and ue Paul Revere's is known every school child in the land Not well known but to our mind as good is The Monk of Casal which ice on a time some centuries ago In the hot sunshine two Franciscan friars their weary way with footsteps slow Sack to their convent whose white walls and spires on the hillside like a patch of snow Covered with dust they were and toru by briers nd bore like upon their backs he badge of poverty their sacks TEX POET'S THANKS Perhaps this little sketch could not e more appropriately closed than by ese quotations from one of his most poems any thought of mine or sung or told Eas ever given delight or consolation have repaid me bach a thousand fold By every friendly sign and salutation lanks for the sympathies that ye have Thanks for each friendly word each silent token lat teaches me when seeming most alone Friends are around me though BO words be spoken herefore I hope to join your seaside walk Saddened and mostly silent with emotion ot interrupting with intrusive talk The grand majestic symphonies of I hope as no unwelcome guest At your warm fireside when the lamps are lighted o have my place reserved among the rest Nor stand as one unsought and uninvited Henry Waterson the editor of the Louisville will mte a curious paper to the April tury on the Oddities of Southern Life It deals mainly with the side of Southern character in the days before the war and contains also the author's view of the changes for the better that have grown out of tke new and more wholesome relations between the North and the South The Democratic editor of the ing Times is worried over the lican test As Mr Waldo is not apt to vote for many Republicans we do not see that it is of any moment to him whether it is a good or a bad test Frank is said te be giving out some pretty big points about Union Consolidated stock based what

State Central Committee at its re- cent meeting held at Virginia for use at the primary elections for delegates to the State Convention at Reno next tember is brief to the point and comprehensive for the purpose It Are you a Republican and will you support tke nominees of the Republican State It certainly is essential that the voter should be a Republican and pledging to support the nominees of the convention is nothing more nor less than is or will be required of the nees themselves of any political con- vention It is a pledge capable of eral construction No man in these days of liberal political ideas and party principles will bind himself to vote for all the nominees of any convention when he does not and cannot know who those nominees are or will be But he is presumed and expected to vote for the majority of them at least He most certainly is not ex- to vote for the nominees of any other party's convention unless he chooses to bolt and repudiate both ticket and party altogether The County Central Committees ever have the right to regulate this test matter to suit the requirements of respective localities in ing for the primaries and the election of suitable delegates to the convention The test is good and sufficient for eral use and if the County Committees can improve upon it it certainly is their plain duty to do so The Bristol Times The Virginia Chronicle makes a good when it mentions the of J T Williams in connection with the Governorship has proved himself to be with and for the people during his career as Assemblyman and Senator Ho iu every case voted for the passage of bills which prove tolSe of benefit to his ents He has never yet sold his vote to any corporation for any purpose ever and well deserves the appellation of Honest Joe Ho made a splendid fight against the Central Pacific R R and deserves the gratitude of our pla for that act if or no other He will make a formidable antagonist to those running against him and will poll a large majority of tbe Democratic vote in Eastern Nevada during the coming contest Mr Williams is without doubt the people's friend and all who wish an honest square and upright man at the helm of the good ship Nevada should support and exert their best en- deavors to place him in the position he would so ably fill The Lander Free Press has this The financial trouble between the vada Central and the Battle Mountain Lewis railroads has we understand teen settled satisfactory and all bills the latter company will be paid as heretofore There vas no cause for the scare and as soon as Mr Bothwell returned everybody was satisfied The company has always up on the 1st or 2d of every month ind there is no cause to doubt but that t will continue to do so in the future HOT A POLITICAL MEASURE Professional Democratic politicians are praying for a veto oi the anti- Chinese by President Arthur If it passes and becomes a law they are ready to claim it as a Democratic ure If it receives the veto of the President the Republican party is to be condemned for its defeat And no doubt if such veto the licans will overwhelmingly defeated this 3 ear and every succeeding year until the question is settled in every Pacific Coast State and Territory and ia every locality East where the labor element predominates But we have the assurance ol Senator Jones the President's confidential friend that the will receive Executive sanction hence Republicans need feel no hension on that score for Arthur is too shrewd a politician to sacrifice his party and his own by a veto of the With the being ered by a Republican Senator eral vigorously urged to sage by such Republican Congressmen as Page and Pacheco and created a law by the signature of a Republican dent there cai be no cause for alarm in the ranks of that party In fact the Republican party may in a political sense lay claim to the measure as its own But the country will understand that it is simply a demanded by the people of the Pacific coast Republicans and Democrats alike and is altogether a measure Chicago Railway BEST CONSTRUCTED I BEST EQUIPPED 1 and hence the LEADING RAILWAY Of the West and COUNCIL BLUFFS CHICAGO MILWAUKEE And all

Reveille Wolves in France In France the wolves seem to in- crease much quicker than the tion In ancient Limousin and abouts they are not contented with sheep and dogs hut six times within the last two years have attacked human beings and a score of people have died mad from their bites In the small local newspapers it is quite common to see accounts of dogs killed in defense of the sheep These occurrences rarely gain attention from the Paris papers and the cry ent loudly against the Chamber for not making the lieutenants de louveterie do their duty These officers are accused of showing more discretion than vigor in destroying the wolves for if wolves become extinct their own occupation would be gone The position is much coveted and it is a pleasant one both for the holder and his friends as re- gards hunting shooting and social in- iu the lieutenant's district The rewards for killing a wolf are now very small ranging from one dollar to three dollars The departments most infested demand an increase to sixty dollars and one hundred dollars so as to make it worth the while of good shots and expert poachers to devote themselves to wolf destruction Elisee Reclus has computed that
