Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1869-10-05
TO CERTAIN MEN.

SCkkhih /
like the position the GOLD HILL NEWS
takes in regard to the recent mob viola
ton of the law in driving the Chinese
graders from the line of the Virginia
and Truckee Railroad, have very
~oficiously taken it upon themselves to
try and injurc this paper by trying 10
stop its circulation as far as possible.
In order to do this, they 80 to sub
scribers, especially business men, and
tell them that if they do not stop
pa~tronizing the Nnws the miners Will
not deal with them any more. By doing
this these persons have actually sue
cssdsd in stopping fifteen subscribers
in Gold Hill and Virginia-ffteen and
no more. The efforts Of these idlers are
simply ridiculous in the eyes Of all
newspaper men. Tho revenue frsm
those fifteen weakened subscribers
towards the support Of this paper is
no moro than q gum.drop 10 a whales
belly. Bless your souls, boys, If
you should ever succeed in stopping
fifteen hundred Of our subscribers, the
NEWS would still continue to be pub
lishsd as usual. Yos are fooling away
your time. You had better 60 to work
at some honest occupation for half
price. The sensible, respectable and
substantial business portion Of the COM
uunity is what supports a newspaper,
and all who choose to deprive them
selves of tho NEws can do 10. It is
their loss, not ours.
These foolish idlers, of which We
speak, none Of them ever read the News
except at somebody else's expense, and
thus it is that they will read this very
article We are writing. They claim to
represent the miners in this small bust
ness, but va wish them to understand
that they are on the wrong lay, and
sooner or later will get into difficulty in
tho matter. The GOLD HILL News has
been, aud still is the faithful eIpo-
nent and advocate of the true inter-
ests Of the miners Of Storey County.
We have in treasured possession COM
m%uuications from each of the Miners
Unions of Virginia and Gold Hill, off,
cially sent us by the Secretary Of each
Union, giving US votes of thanks for
leading editorials written and published
by US, favoring them and their cause.
We still favor tho miners in all their
lawful acts and true interests. Mr..
Miller, President of the Virginia Miners
Union, personally avowed to us only
last Saturday, that the Miners Union
had nothing to do with that bad break
of Wednesday last, and many other re-
spectacle members of tho association
tell US the same thing, therefore wo are
compelled to give in to their honest
assertions, and will try and lay the
blame where it belongs ; so hereafter let
no idler dare prescribe any one in the
name of the miners for daring to take
the GOLD HILL News. We are the
champion of right against wrong every
time and all the time, and are not to be
intimidated by the foolish efforts of a
few shiftless idlers.
As to those few irresponsible fellows
who so blustaringly presume to threaten
this office, we would suggest that they
quit bad whisky and 60 to work. Such
talk is simply silly and dotracts from
what manly dignity they have, or ex'
pect to possess. No true American ever
talk, hat way, and oil foreigners should
bear in mind that they are free to live
in this country aud thrive and prosper
with US, just so long as they behave
themselves and respect the laws Of oul
country. Tho nearer all such men &C,
like good square law-abiding American.
the better it will be for them. Neither
riot, sedition nor defiance of the laws is
allowable under the starry banner oil
America. A word to the wise is sui.
