SJhf parson Sail? PFal CAKSON CITY i sWanalar. Xe-reaeher J. 1873. Whilb we confess to feeling flat tereJ at being recognized bj the En term-use as " the leading Republican organ in this State," we deny the legitimateness of its farther conclu sion that our news upon the railway qnestiou are to be taken as the avowed nolicT of tho party. Our notions concerning the railway ques tion, like our religious ideas, are simply our own individual property; and the Republican party is no more to be charged with a responsibility for the one than far the other. It is becanso we hold that the Republican party is established upon a snQ ciently broad gauge to enable it to carry within itself a diversity of opinions on everything bat the one or two cardinal articles of faith tuat lend it an imx'erishable principle of vitality, that wo deem it not oniy na- wiso but unnecessary to abandon its organization to go in search of the Yaonries which, like a V. ill O tue Wisp, are leading the Enterjr-rias am its benighted fellow-travelers into the trackless morass of No Man s Land. If wo had so poor an opinion of tho Repnblican party as to think that in order to retain onr voice and standing therein, it wcro incumbent on us to surrender onr personal ideas concerning all subordinate and nn dafiued issues, we, too, might feci tempted to repudiate it; but in doing 60 we trust we should not be guilty of denouncing the work we had helped to build up, sustain and vindicate the moment we had set foot without the portals of its organization. THE GRAVE AT-nTlTDE OP OVR RELATIONS TV1TU SPAIN. The following important dispatch in dicates the not remote possibility of the settlement of our long and and growing list of old scores with Spain fcy an ap peal to arms: Madrid, November 20. Tne situation is crave. There is a serious misunder standing between Minister Siekles and the Spanish Cabinet. On the arrival of the news of the capture of ths Virginias President Casttlar culled at tho United States Leition and expressed his regret and ordered a suspension of the sen tences. When Secretary Fish telegraph ed the news of the executions Oeneral Sickles sent a note at 2 o'clock in the morning demanding a stay. The For eign Secrct.iry doubted tho a?currar-y of the information, and intimated that General Sickle's action was not author ized. Thereupon General sickles, in the came of ths United States ad dressed a formal protest against the in human hutcheiics, and the insult to the United States flag; and demanded that Spain should enforce her orders in Cuba, and insisted on the rights of Americans to trial under the treaty of 179ti. He also complained that the American Con sal at Santiago was prevented from rising the telegraph to Washington. The Span ish Secretary answered that the matter was wholly a municipal affair between Spain and the Virginias pirates, and that Spain could net tolerate American inter ference. The interview ended by Gen tral Sickles demanding that Spain should enforce the order of the Cabinet in Cuba for a suspension'of the executions. The Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs having declined to permit General Siekles to discuss the municipal affairs of Cuba, the interview terminate d angrily General Sickles saying ha wonld hold no more personal and only official relations with the llicister. Public feeling runs high. The Spaniards blame the United States for the Cuban insurrection, and say they will welcome a war. Minister Sickles says he does not see how war can be avoided as Spain w ill concede noth ing, and public opinion will prevent President Castclar from making any concession; that there is no use in the United States trifling any mors on the subject, as Spanish stubborness will ma.'ie concessions impossible. The ex trewe Republicans favor the views of the Uuitud States in the efi'tir. Fkesoxal. C. J. Hillyer, who has re cently returned from a "European tour, was around, list Saturday, taking obser vations in the lower levels of the Arizona mine. He is satisfied with things sub terranean, in Arizona Hill, and said he had no doubt that it wonld continue to yield bars and bricks to the end of the century. The Silver Stat, horn which paper we clip the foregoing, also informs n that Governor Fall, who has re cently bees quite seriously ill, is rapidly recoveriag his health. This will be pleasing news to the Govern or's many friends in this part of the State. Noraiso so becomes a journalist as to confess his error when he finds himself in the wrong. The cause of truth and justice and good morals is always the same in whatever guise it may be clad. It is possible, as we now discover, that in our zeal for the cause of Republicanism we have spoken with unwarrantable levity and in an nniustiSable tone of deprecation of the Society of Gran gers. We are suddenly confronted with evidence which leads us to this self-doubting. We discover ths same in the Reno d escent of Thursday. Says the stern and incorruptible Re former who presides over that poor but honest hebdomadal: We unhesitatingly say that we are a Grantrer. JJot by initiation, but In snirit. The verv tieht that this orenni- zation proposes to make, we have had on onr hands for years; suffered defeats innumerable, slanders and villincations, until we can no longer sleep on the night that follows the day, during which no man lied about ns. liut we think we see daylight jast ahead, and we propose whether wo sdiall be able to help the good cause or not, join in the glad shout that goes up, when the Grangers shall have redeemed our country from the misrule of corporations. It is the feeling (one in which this declaration of faith and hope is made that makes us pause and reflect. and tako under consideration our own moral attitude. Can we oppose this good being, this gooder than Goodman, and bo right? lie is not a Granger by initiation, nor yet by vaccination, bat "in spirit." One can't always judge by appearances. Snarieyow don't look like a Granger in spirit. lie looks a deal more like a perverted Mormon Elder suffering from the chronic effects of poison oak. This shows that you can't al ways tell who is spiritualistic. And yet, dreadful as Lewis is to look upon hn is too pure and proud and nncontaminatcd to allow himself and his party to be run by Joe Goodman. In the fervid honesty of his nature the sentiment which oozes out of him, repelling all such eleventh- hour converts as Goodman, breathes this tone: Wf must E-t fcorjc to Vc xcorf rf. And to K&th r iue ripe. t,o!d crs. Until we have been sowers. And watered the farrows with tears. Our readers will understand onr feelings better ly analysing their own sentiments than by anything we can say. And yet, wc are free to ad mit, that in the connection used, it might, by the unregenerate, be deemed a legitimate paraphrase upon the versa above quoted to so far change its construction as to make it read thus: To be s, political lioe-er And wort with the Granji rs, a'nVl J, Tear Bead should be known to be sore, Since soreheads first were revealed. Besides tho material and indubita ble evidence of high motive which Lewis avowal of his own spiritual presence in the Granger movement attests, we have the instance, already alluded to in these columns, of tho moral support awarded, with a beau tiful spontaniety of effort, to tho em bryo organization, by that well known and oft summoned Cincin nati of the political plow, the Hon orable Joseph Woodworth, of the city of Carlin. This is a moral in fluence which is scarcely inferior, if it It inferior, to the attitude lately inaintainod with so admirable effect by the lion. Morris Pinehower of Storey county. It i n sudden con sciousness of the Jilting of the Granger movement above the dead waste and level of mere sordid poli tics by these proto Reformers which causes ns to modify and reconstruct our tone of comment concerning the same. A Coexek ox Dav. .We understand that good grass hay cannot be purchased in this valley less than 30 per ton. This extravagant price is explained to ns as arising from the fact that the entire crop has fallen into the hands of three persons, and they propose to, in the classic phraseology of ye old California!!, Vincb the consumers." In the language of the Queen of France who when told that her subjects were suffering for bread, asked, "why do you not g'Te them cake?" so we say to stock men, if you can't get bay, why don't you feed grain? Reno Crescent. This sounds like Lrtrtless mock ery, coming from one who is a Granger in spirit. Has any bloated hay monopolist been tampering with the spiritual Granger ? The S;teer S ate ventures the opin ion, after considering one of tho En terjirise's articles on the Granger movement, that Senator Jones favors that movement. We have never seen nor heard anything which jnsti ties that conclusion, and, while we have no right to set as Mr. Jones' organ, in the premises, yet we feel at liberty to Bay that we do not believe that he is at all willing that his name should be used to help demolish the party whose last political perform ance in this State was to elect him to the Senate cf the United States. We believe him to be too much of a man and actuated by too large a sense of propriety and justice to take such action as should seem to say, "The Republican party in Nevada had nothing left for it to do but elect me and die." We have too high a regard for Mr. Jones, politi cally and personally, to believe him capable of this act of constructive arrogance. A Obaxgzb. We me reliablv informed that Hon. K. McEeth, ex-Senator from Humboldt, has purchased a farm of six hundred acres ia Reese River Valley, joined the Grangers, and will shortly commence the organization cl a orange ia this part of Nevada. For years past Cob Las devoted his entire and undivided attention to ruining and mining interests at which he has met with considerable success, and we are1 at a loss to account for this secession from first prim iples. but presume tbe Honorable IJobert knows w hat he is about. This is another gratifying evidence of the correctness of the declaration of intention made by the Enterprise in behalf of the Grangers, to tbe ef fect that that organization would be free from the influence of all old po litical hacks. More- Aboat tbe arrivavg. We Lave another puconmcriDfr report from the Elko and Hamilton Narrow- Gane Eailroad. This last promise sounds more like business than niiy which has preceded it. We trust that it may prove true; though the managers should not blurae the people cf this sec tion if they should still entertain tlonhts concerning the Buceess of the enterprise. We are gratified to learn that Messrs. Gilmer & Salisbury have succeeded in making satisfactory nrrar.gc merits with the Central i'acine, ana mat tuerc is ut least a prospect of '"twenty or thirty miles cf iron being laM down before inunrv. mat m However, a pretty bis forty-days' job.

Inasmuch as we suppose that sufficient time has elapsed since Messrs. Salisbury, Woodruff, Hempstead and others were here, arranging their business, to mate it proper for us to pay co further obedi ence to their injunction to "say nothing about it," we w ill state That a company has been formed, the principal capital ists in which are Giirncr k Salisbury and Woodruff Jt Eunor, and whose arti cles of incorporation, already filed with the Secretary of State, set forth an in tention of constructing a narrow-gauge railroad from l'alisaue to Eureka. This coiporation has a capital stock of $100, 000 and is officered as follows: Fretident, Monroe Salisbury ; Treasurer, E. Wood ruff: Stcrctarr, W. F. Elinor. Ws have neglected to inform oursclf of the EnmcB of the Board of Directors cr the place cf business. Mr. Salisbury says that the building of this road is a certainty. He and his associates have secured cs much as 1,100 tons of 36 pound (narrow-gauge) iron, complete, with fish bar. bolt9, spikes and everything. This material is now on the wharf at Oakland, ready for shipment. With anything like an even show Salisbury says they will ccm pltte twenty miks between now and tho firr.t of January. Tbe grade, he says, is easy, and there will be need of but few bridges. Labor can readily be obtained. Mr. S informs as that tbe contemplated route from Elko wonld have been at least 30 miles longer than this; cud that in tho present otate of the money market and the beclouded condition of railway pro jects he found it impossible to handle the Elko undertaking mainly because of. the present unwillingness of Eastern capitalists to lend aid to anytLing of the name and nature of a railroad. This route from Palisade to Eureka will be about 80 niilei in extent. About CO miles from Palisade a branch to White Pine if such a branch can even be built, would tap this hue. We con congratulate our friends in Eureka upon this seemingly bright prospect of an early connection with the outside world . X. P. CBiXtESUX. H. S.
