COMPARISONS ARE ODIOUS.
Ancnb the cliunor that has been
raised against the action of Nevada's
legislature in passing the bill per
mitting prize-fighting, it is with
pleasure wc note the distinguished
consideration extended to the llun
orablc James Corbett upon his arrival
at IJcno yesterday.
Much as wo have, or may, con
demn Nevada for her course in pass
ing the law, wo cannot forbear, in
justice to her, comparing the action
of her chief executive yesterday
with that of our own governor, now
mayor of Portland, upon the occa
sion of the visit of the president of
the United States. Puffed up with
the pride of his own distinguished
position, our
refused to
meet the president at the state line,
and it was only after a hard wrestle
with his pride that he consented to
meet him at the depot in the capital
of the state. It will bo remembered,
also, that upon another occasion, be
ing swift to stand upon his dignity,
our governor telegraphed another
president of the United States that
retort courteous, "You attend to
your business, and 1 will attend to
mine."
Compare this action of the gov
ernor of the great civilized and es
thetic state of Oiegon with that of
the governor of that pocket borough,
that commonwealth of Bill Stewart
and Bill Sharon, of Jim Fair and
Tom Fitch; that outskirt of civiliza
tion that, owing its advancement to
bacon and beans, looks with con
tempt on anything savoring of Bos
ton. Observe how its governor and
staff, accompanied by nearly one
half the population of the state,
crowded to Reno to do honor to the
chief bruiser of the art fistic.
The governor takes off his hat in
the presence of the great man, and
expresses his "latitude to a kind
Providence that has graciously per
mitted him the distinguished honor,
and his countenance is irradiated
with smiles of joy when the great
Jim, before that vast audience, pats
him on the back, calls him a "bully
boy," and congratulates him on the
wonderful stride he and the state
have made along the lines of a bet
ter and a higher civilization. And
when the great Jim spoke feelingly
of the manhood of the governor, his
uprightness and lack of hypocrisy,
the latter could scarcely restrain the
tears of joy that gathered in two
crystal drops and hung tremulously
to his eyelids.
Taken all in all, it was a touching
and a fetching scene. Hereafter let
not the finger of scorn be pointed at
Nevada by the four-eyed denizens of
the effete Hub. For Chesterfieldian
grace and genuine old Virginia hos
pitality, the occasion was never ex
celled, and Nevada can now take
first place as the leader, whom none
can hope to equal, in social functions.
It is another evidence of Nevada's
rapid progress. Thirty years ago
Jim would have been looked upon by
the social leaders, whoso jewelry con
sisted of two six shooters and a
knife, as a very common sort of a
guy; but today they arc relegated to
the past, such of them as survived
each othci's little pleasantries, or es
caped the vigilance committees, and
the gentleman who travels on his
muscle is the fellow that draws tho
wealth, tho talent, tho youth, tho
beauty, the brass bands, tho governor
and his staff, and all the great and
glorious aggregation of state ofllcera
in one vast crowd to worship at tho
shrine of his gonitis.
Some things are raro and others
8inply blood-red raw. Of tho latter
, , , , , ,
kind is the persisted, in statement
made by the Orcgonian, and reiter
ated by legislators, opposed to Sena
tor Mitchell, that Mitchell and his
friends are holding up the legislature.
There is not a word of truth in it,
and those who make tho assertion
know it. It is made to bolster up a
weak cause and for tho effect it may
have on those who do not take the
trouble to inform themselves. Jon
athan Bourne, the Orcgonian and
Joo Simon, assisted by a lot of mis
guided Populists arc holding up tho
legislature. Assisting them arc a few
Republicans, with Joe Simon's collar
on. Those arc tho people who arc
holding tho legislature up, and no
bod' else.
Jonathan Bourne is wasting his
sweetness, lie should bo down in
Nevada with Adolph Livingstone
and Bill Whcelock, running the Cor
bett-Fitzsimmons fiasco. He co.ild
make big 11101103" holding that meet
mg up.
The state of Nevada ought to
start a joint stock company, invite in
the Louisiana lottery and open a
regular gambling 'and amusement
dive.
