IN LUCK.

The Hon. John P. Jones, of Nevada—How He Lost a Fortune of Five Millions, and Is Now Swiftly Regaining

It.

Interesting Details in the Life and Career of the Senator From Nevada.

Special Correspondence of the Chicago Inter Ocean. New York, Sept. 13.—It does not often happen just on the eve of a close election, and especially in times like the present, of party perturbation and political peril, that the candidate for a high and warmly contested office meets with the extraordinary good fortune that has recently befallen Senator Jones.

When he left New York the middle of July for his home in Nevada, where a campaign for the Senatorship ot that State was before him, he was, in his own estimation broken in fortune, although five years before he was worth not less than $5,000,000. He his, however, recently lecovered about one-fourth of it.

In financial matterr Senator Jones has had rather a checkered career, haying made and spent two or three good-sized fortunes in his lifetime, and he is yet on the sunnj'side of 50. While his financial affairs have been somewhat diversified, politically he has had very smooth sailing. Though nominally a Republican, he belongs to no party, but is in his own State emphatically the first choice ot both parties. Early in"the summer, when the financial cloud hung darkest over his personal affairs, leading politicians of both parties hastened to assure him in advance of their unanimous preterence for him over anv candidate that could possi blv be named, and that no money would be required on his part for the expenses of the campaign. In Congress he belongs more to the whole country and the whole people than to ai.y section or to anv class. lie is cosmopolitan in his nature, and could not possibly be made a narrow, scheming pot-house politician.

Senator Jones was born in England, in January, 1829, on the banks of the Wye, a small river which runs between Wales and the mainland. His parents were Welch, and had always lived on the other side of the river until a short time previous to the birth of this distinguished member of their household so that resl1 he is of Wclch origin rather than English, but is American rather than either. This country has produced few men more thoroughly anJ instinctively her own than the Anglo Saxon here mentioned. He loves her soil atid her peculiar institutions as few native Americans love them. When asked in the summer if he intended to visit the World's Exposition at Paris, he replied: I do not nnrl RlnDPR I find abundant scope for my ambition.'

In iSjo, when the snbject of this' sketch was eighteen months of age, the family removed to America, and the year following settled in Cleveland, Ohio, where the children were raised, and educated in the public schools of that city.

Of the early life of Senator Jones the Hon. Andrew Freese, lor many years superintendent ot schools in that city, writes as follows: "He was

A RARE SPECIMEN OF A BOY. Finely developed physically and intellectually,"not one in a thousand having a face so intelligent as he, "Ilis father was a man of more than ordinary intelligence, and^much original independent thought. "His notions of education of bojrs were—he had six other sons—that they should be trained to manly habits, and taught some branch of practical industry. He owned a large marble manufactory, and all through the boyhood of John, he was more or less engaged ashisting his father at this work. He attended school a less numbet of months in the year than the average city boy, but when there he always outstripped his associates, who put in their whole ti^e. "Physically he had an unusually fine development, and the writer was led to

age on an old weather-beaten sailing barge, sailed out through the Welland Canal, down the St. Lawrence, reund Cane Horn to the Golden Gate.

Immediately on arriving in California he went into the mines, and, by dint of muscle and skill, exhumed therefrom in a very short time what proved to be the nucleus of a great fortune. This, from the beginning, has always been lavishly shared with his fiiends." Eminently social and affectionate, he was devotedly attached to his family, and the first gold nuggets ever exhumed from the mines were shared in part with every member1 of the numerous household and from that time till the present no one connected with him, either by family ties, or ties as remote as consanguinity through Adam, has ever failed to share his fortune who came in his way, either in the intimate relations of friendship or business, or even as a beggar at his door.

His charities and munificent gifts of friendship have not fallen below one million of dollars in his lifetime.

When he first went to Washington as senator from Nevada, he had the princely fortune of $5,000x00. He did not anticipate the long-continued business collapse that has since wrecked so many fortunes, and, considering the strict economy it is necessary for all classes of American citizens to practice under contraction, his manner of life was perhaps a little extravagant. Not more so, however, than any well-to-do citizen might enjo\ under a rational monetary system. But 'when a great nation is robbed of its money, of course the arts of civilization must perish, and the very wealthiest come down to the conditions imposed by "hard pan.''

But wherever he scattered some honest workingmen found better gleaning, so that the world was made none the poorer at any rate. THE EXPENSES OF FASHIONABLE LIFE at the national capital, together with his recklessness in giving and the usual shrinkage of values and decline of enterprise, so nearly bankrupt him, that, when he started out for the summer campaign, it was something of a query in his own mind where the money was to come from to buy campaign cigars. He stopped in Chicago on his way to the West, and sold at considerable sacrifice some California lands, which, discreetly invested in first-class Havanna, ought to have been sufficient to have carried him through, especially after the marvelous wealth he

had

secured his constituency

by the passage of the silver bill. The recent discovery of gold in the Sierra Nevada mines has very unexpect edly reimbursed him to the extent of a milion and a quater.

At the time of the great silver excitement in Congress last winter it was charged that the Senator was a heavy stockholder in rich silver mines, which only required its remonetization by the government to make him richer than the Rothschilds. The charge he flatly denied, and said that in the stock ot the fich silver mines of California h« did not own a dollar that the only mining stock he did own was in some non-paying gold mines in which he had spent several r*c tn riff. but from which he had never realized anything iri comparison to the money expended, and never expected to. Also for three years past had not received dollar of income from mining, and never expected to again, as he fully believed the supply of gold was too far exhausted ever to again repay the cost of mining

He had a brother, however, who was more hopeful, and pressed his search for gold deeper into the bowels of the earth than any mining enterprise had ever been tried before, and his untiring zeal was at last rewarded by the discovery of a very rich vein at the 2,ioo-foot level, none ever having bean discovered before at a greater depth than i,Soo feet

This almost worthless stock, which had been almost a drug on the market at per share, suddenly advanced till in the space of a fortnight it reached the surprising sum of $220 per share.

This new discovery has not only netted the Senator the sum of $1,125,000, but added over $30,000,000 to the min ing capital of California and Nevada, and so much more to the wealth of the continent.

Nevada has, through her Senotor, won an enviable notority. Although a new state, and comparatively undeveloped, it has a distinction and historical prominence second to no state in the Union Having a limited population it has, of

notice him on this account long before hei course,few representatives in Congress, reached the high school. Having passed all the lower grades as first in his class, he reached the acad department at the age of ^.wherej once took a high stand as a scholar." "lie excelled in the higher mathematics, and was especially fond of all those branches ot study which required the exorcise of vigorous thought. "In extemporaneous debate he alSo' txcelled, and in the discussions held as a school exercise he had no match. "He had a quick, keen sense cf honor, and ruost heartily despised a "mean action. In this feature of his character he was especially marked, standing out and apart from the average high-school student. "When he selected his piece of declamation it was usually an extract from some orator who pleaded for a downtrodden people Robert Emmet's defense of himself at his trial for treason was .a speech that he used to rehearse with great feeling'and effect. "At an early age he felt the impoitance of doing something in the world's great enterprise. He often talked with me long and seriously about life's unsolved problems, and the part he should take in the world's great drama. "He finally called one day and made the surprising statement that he would sail for Calitorniaon the day following, and that he had called to

BID ME GOOD-BYE.

I parted from him with more regret than I ever took a farewell of any pupit in my life. "I did not see him again for twenty years, when he called at my residence, a man of wealth and a member ot the United States Senate. "In this extraordinary man of talent and genius I saw fulfilled all the promises of a rarely endowed and precocious youth."

At the breaking out of the California gold excitement in 1S49, he was among the earliest to embark on the perilous voyage for the land of gold. When only 20 yean of age, in company with a brother next older than himself, hetook pass

'V?'

and has for some time had but one Sen ator, his colleague, Senator Sharon, hav ing no share in the matter.

Senator Sharon was also a man of wealth, but, unlike Senator Jones, stayed at home and looked after his own interest. Senator Jones left his own affairs to the hands of such persons as he could hire to look after them, and devoted himself untiringly to the affairs of the nation, and there will hardly be any one of any class who will not be glad to hear of his good fortune.

Wealth seldom falls into hands where it is more likely to result in general good than in the hands of Senator Jones, of Nevada.

No one cares in times like these to be noted for liberality, and it is not probable that the Senator in building up another fortune will ever be quite so prodigal in giving as he has been in the past, but he will labor even more assiduously in establishing enterprise and securing such legislation as shall enable all clastes to enjoy prosperity and plenty.

DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE,

The democracy of the state of Indiana assembled in delegate convention de clare:

That national bank notes shall be retired, and in lien thereof there shall be issued by the government an equal amount of treasury notes with full legal tender quality.

That we are in favor of making the United States notes, commonly called greenbacks, a full legal tender in payment of all debts, public and private, except such obligations only as are by the terms of the original contracts under which they were issued, expressively payable in coin.

That the right to issue paper money a well as coin is the exclusive prerogative of the government, and such money hould be issued in such amounts as the sound business interests of the country may from time to time re, quire.

We are in favor of such legislation by congress as will authorize the taxation by the states of the United States notes in common with all other money.

That we deem it unwise and inexpedient to enact any further legislation for the funding of the national debt abroad, through the means of home syndicates or other methods and we believe the true policy of the government and the best interests of the people would be subserved by legislating so as to distribute said debt among our people at home —affording them the most favorable and practical opportunities for the investment of their savings in the funded debt of the United States.

That we are in favor of such legislation which 9hall fix the legal rate of interest at hot exceeding six per centum per annum.

We demand the restoration of the silver dollar of 412)^ grains to the coin of the country, and with full legal tender quality in the payment all debts, both Dublic and private and that the coinage thereof shall be unlimited, and upon the same terms and conditions as may be provided for the coinage of gold.

That we are in favor of the immediate and unconditional repeal of the resumption act.

We are in favor of the most rigid economy in public expenditures, and we declare that the fees and salaries of all public officers should be reduced.

That we are in favor of the repeal ot the bankrupt act. That we sincerely deplore the recent violent collision between labor and capital, and to prevent the recurrence thereof and to protect the future public order and :«i-nuritv we believe that the wages of corporations engaged in the business of mining, manufacturing and transportation should be a first lien upon the property, receipts and earnings of said corporations, and that such lien should be declared, defined and enforced by appropriate legislation.

That we favor a passage of a law for the ventilation of coal mines—one that would be just to the miner and owner.

The Democratic party is the friend the common school system, and wiil in every legitimate way labor for its success and will oppose any attempt to divert any portion of the common schoo fund to any sectarian purpose.

That the last apportionment of the state' for legislative purposes was grossly unjust and dishonorable, and we demand that the next legislature, in apportioning the state for legislative pui poses, as will be their imperative duty, shall have regard alone to population and contiguity of territory.

That the jurisdiction claimed ancl exercised by the circuit courts of the United States over questions of corporate and individual rights arising under the laws of the states tends to oppress and burden litigants to such an extent as to amount to a practical denial of justice in many cases and we consider the legislation which has conferred such jurisdiction as unwise and hurtful to the true interests of the peop'e. And we demand such legislation as wiil restrict and limit the jurisdiction 01 such courts to such matters as are clearly contemplated by the constitution and expressed in the judiciary act of 1789.

We are opposed to class legislation, and protest against the grant of subsidies by the federal government, either in lands, bonds, money or by the pledge of the public credit.

That we abhor and hold up to public detestation the leaders in the Republican party who secretly connived, and with barefaced effrontery carried out the scneme, by and through venal returning boards, whereby Samuel J. Tilden and Thomas A. Hendricks, the people's choice for president and vice president were wrongfully kept out of the positions to which a free people had called them. We hold it up a» the monster crime of the age, a crime against free government, a crime against the elective franchise, and a crime that can only be condoned when the malefactors who seated a fraud in the presidential chair are driven from power and consigned to everlasting intamy by the people whom they have outraged. And we denounce the act of the president to the United States in appointing to high and lucrative positions the corrupt members of the returning boards, and condemn the acts of federal officers in attempting to interfere with the rights and powers of the state courts in the prosecution of these criminals.

That our senators and representatives in congress be and are hereby requested to secure passage of a law giving pension soldiers of the Mexican* war a soldiers similar to that now given to the soldiers of the war of 1812.
