PRIZE-FIGHTING.
The newspapers of the United
States, great and small, have nil taken
a lling at Nevada for permitting
prize-fighting within her borders.
The comments are, in most cases,
appropriate, and show a hearty senti
ment against the brutal practice.
Jlttt how is it with the newspapers?
Which is the worse, to permit prize
fighting or to print column after col
umn of bruiser slang, and to keep
this up woek after week, giving
every detail of the wordy contro
versy between the would be cham
pions of the rinc? Which is the
worse, to let these human curs get
together and pummel the life out of
each other, or to assist in a long-distance
fight, as all the newspapers
do?
When the fight comes off in
Nevada, the big dailies of every city
in this country will have column
after column concerning it, giving
the fight by rounds, the appearance
of the principles, and every minute
detail. Every paper now holding
Nevada up to contempt, will furnish
the battle m as realistic a manner as
words will permit, and besides will
have a picture of each of the com
batants. They will do this for the
purpose of selling their papers, for i
they know the papers containing that
kind of literature are of quick sale
and are in great demand. They are
in demand besause the public, the
greater part of it, at least, like to
read about a prize-fight and would
attend it if they could. Private sen
timent indorses the prize-fight by de
manding news of it in detail, and
yet public sentiment, which is, of
course, only the combination of many
private sentiments, is said to bo
against it.
We may temporize with the mat
ter all we please, but the fact is that
the people of the whole country are
as much to blame for the passage of
the laws permitting prize-fighting in
Nevada aa the citizens of that state.
Every man will protect every woman
from every man but himself, and
the same principle prevails in public
morals generally. We hold up our
Hands in well simulated horror at
many things, but In the familiarity
of our private acquaintance do not
hesitate to embrace them.
The Oregon lan kills Mitchell every
day, and the Telegram kills him over
again every night; and together they
hold the dance of death on tho
corpse, only to perform the assassin
ation act over again, and yet again
The final funeral obsequies are still in
the remote future, the papers named
not even fixing u day for burying
the remains. It is seldom the papers
named have a real live dead man to
deal with, and they arc getting as
much pleasure out of it as the cir
cumstances will permit.

The investigation of the election
of Sanator Turner by the Washing
ton legislature goes a long ways tow
ards restoring confidence in Ameri
can political methods. It has
times been doubted if we as a peopl
retained an' political honesty, and
that investigation has proved con
clusivelv that we have, and that
Washington has, rrniij honest politi
cians. It might be well to add that
an honest politician is defined to be
"one who when he is bought, stays
bought.
These results are prevented by the us
of the Shaker Digestive Cordial, a reuio
dy discovered and prepared by the Shak
ers of Mount Lebanon, N. Y. It is in
itself a food and has power to dige
other food tnken with it. Thus it rests
the diseased stomach and finally masters
the worst, cases of dvspepsia. It acts
promptly and fresh strength and in
creasti of weight soon follows. The first
dose, taken immediately alter eating,
abates the pain and distress so dreaded
by dyspeptics. Trial bottles enough to
prove its merit 10 cents. (7)

MONEY IN THE II OLD-UP.
There are numerous parties inter
ested in having the legislature held
up until the cud and adjourned with
out organization. Among these arc
the numerous commissions, railroad
end others. But while these persons
are interested pecuniarily in tho
amounts of their salaries, the one
most interested is tho stato treasurer.
.With no appropriation bills passed, a
million and a half dollars will be left
in the treasurer's hands for two
years, unless a special session is
called- Tins money loaned at five
per cent would in that time earn
$130,000. The stato treasurer's
office is worth, in average years, 23,
000; but with the appropriations not
made, it will bo worth $100,000 a
year, or double the salary of tho
president oi the United States.
it has never been insinuated that
our s,tato lieasurer is taking any part
m tho hold-up, and wo only mention
tho tact of his interest to show how
much injury is to bo done. Tho loss
of tho use of tho money will havo to
bo paid by someone.
Then, again, warrants will have to
be issued, and as these cannot be
paid, thoy will draw Interest, and tho
8tite will bo paying that interest on
money it has locked up by tho fool-
lsliness of its legislators. Warrants
will hardly command thoir face
