The Carson daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1865-1870, 1870-09-09


Is TIA FACT that certain profound
Republicans are nightly in conference
with a certain pliable Democrat whose
use and service it is to cause the regis
tration of such Democrats as are will
ing to swear that they voted for Grant
and ColElx? We have heard it init
mated that such is the case; and we
are none the less ready to believe there
is something in it from tho fact that
his repu,ed Republican patron and
mentor was once instrumental in
wringiDg him into Republican club.
We shall inquire into this matter; and
If there is anything in it shall speak
ont in meeting. This fight-at the pri-
nAries-must be fought ON tho square

FROM SALT LAKE.-Parties in Cache
Valley, while at work on the road
have discovered a large natural cave,
with q stream of water running
through it toward the entrance. They
explored it with a light about two
miles, but found no other opening.
Some places in it are so high the roof
could not be discovered. A thorough
of this natural wonder
will shortly be made.

even by ordinary emigration, which will be the
case if not opposed, the effect upon our labor

= Ny advice to you, therefore, is-Orgauize in
opposition 10 this labor; obtain all the legisla-
tion the Constitution will permit against it; but
resolve, above all other things, to create such a
competitors for your labor as will render their
introduction next to impossible. Resolve that
no native or naturalized citizen will labor for

humanity, aud our duty to our fellow-men

TERRIFIC FIGHTING - FRENCH vALoR-MAC-
MAHoN sTUBBoRNLY REsIsrs, BUT IS FORCED
BAoK-ANoTHER BATTLE NEAR sEDAN-sE-
RIoUs ILLNESS OF THE EMPEROR.
PARIS, Sept. l.
lie PubliQue says the government has re-
ceived no official dispatches to-day, in con-
sequence of the cessation OF telegraphc COM
municaton between Sedan and Mezieres; but
it is certain that battles were fought on Tues
day and Wednesday. The first was a sur.
prise, which resulted in partial panic in the
corps d'armee of General Failly, who was
awaiting the arrival of General WimpAer, his
successor, and was still commanding.
There were also separate aud detached con-
flicts, in which our troops displayed great he
roism, but there was want of unity during
the engagement, and the Prussians claim a
victory; but in the battle of yesterday there is
no question but that Mcmahon had great sue
cess against the troops of both Princes Bazaine
was not engaged yesterday, but it is known
that he to-day continues the work so energeti-
cally begun by Mcmahon. The corps Vinoy,
which few days ago passed through Paris,
reached the battlefield yesterday, and is
doubtless fighting now,
The Prussians as they advance require the
people to give up their arms, keep the doors
of their houses unfastened, windows uncur-
tanned and shutters open. The Germans speak
well of the roads over which they march, for
the perfect condition in which they are found.
The Pdtrie says, semi-oflicialy: "The mis-
representations Of foreign journals under
Prussian influence render it necessary to
make clear statement of the facts as to re-
cent military events. Marshal Mcmahon, in
carrying out his movements, has had several
engagements with the enemy, in all of which
he has been successful. He effected a cross
ing of the Meuse safely, and at Longwy we
gained victory. The Prussisns, defeated
after desperate struggle, took refuge in the
territory of Luxemburg, and there they are
TO be disarmed and obliged to remain. This
information, which has just been received,
comes from no less a source than that of the
French representative at Luxemburg." The
Patrie adds: ''It is plain, from the situation
of Longwy, Thionville and Metz, that the
plans of dcMahon have so far been success
fully executed"
La Liberte reports that Mcmahon has to-
day totally defeated the legt wing and centre
of the Prussians; that their losses were enor
nous, and that only the right wing was able
10 retreat in comparatively good order.

PROTEST AGAINST EXTORTION.

Madame Nilsson is no doubt q famous
singer, and to hear her is possibly great
and crowni,g treat. Cream and straw
berries are decided luxury, and the first
peaches of the season are great tempta-
tons; but We laugh at the depraved or os-
tcutatious appetite which pays extraya-
CANT prices for these toothsome Injuries.
Those who allow their passion for delicate
titbits to master them so thoroughly that
they can refuse their palates nothing are
entitled to our sympathy just as the drunk
ard is. and the man who is so ambitious
of notoriety that he will allow himself to
be imposed on in the purchase of an early
mess of peaches is not much above con-
tempt. But unfortunately there are
thousands Of such people, and the famous
restaurateurs make them their prey.
Madame Nillson is at Chicago and may
come to New Orleans. She demands four
dollars for an admission to her singing.
This is robbery as fragrant, as it is to
charge one dollar for single peach, or
five dollars for small saucer of berries
and cream. Her voice may combine all
the harnonies, and her face may reflect
the beauty that is beyond comparison, but
these do not entitle her TO any such price
for her performances. There is limit to
everything, and the sensible man can fix
it in short order. Therefore, if Miss Mil
son comes to New Orleans, We protest
against any such extravaganza in the
prices of admission to her concerts.
The people of New Orleans can resist this
imposition and they should combine to
do it. We have every disposition to cul-
tivate all the amusements that can lend
attraction to the city, but we feel that this
ought to be done according to some rule
of propriety.

POWERS OF THE WARD BOARDS.

WARD BOARD or SCHooL. DIRECTORS,
Second Ward, city of New Orleans.
December %, 1870.
EpIrOR REPUBLICAN,:
We notice, III your paper OF this date,
notice or order Of Mr.. Z. W. Conway, State
Superintendent of Public Education, setting
forth that the Eighth District Court has
enioined the City Board from acting as
school directors for the city and parish of
Orleans, and, therefore. the ward boards
are left free to act. This order goes on to
request that the ward boards Immediately
proceed to employ teachers. who will re-
sumo their functions ON Tuesday, Jan
uary3 >.
Now, it is well settled principle that
every corporation, of Whatever character,
must, in the first instance, be :hc sole aud
exclusive judge of its own powers and
duties under the authority that authorizes
its creation The Second Ward Board
claims and asserts that right. We there
fore deny to Mr.. Conway any right or All
thority to dictate or direct US in our duties
as directors. Our duties and powers are
defined by law, and to the law alone VIC
look for definition thereof. In examining
the law we find no authority to act in the
premises. as Mr.. Conway directs. We can
not, therefore, comply with his request. We
take this occasion to here remark that so
far as the Second Ward Board is concerned
the controversy which Mr.. Conway has
waged with tue City Board has no sanction
\nr countenance from us. although he claims
to DC acting in the interest of the ward
boards Such action by the Superintendent
is wholly gratuitous so far as We are con-
ccrned, as between lis and the City Board
there is not, nor has there been any dispute
or variance. We are in perfect accord. Our
board has nothing to do with the litigation,
nor DO We approve Of Or sanction it.
II the State Superintendent would stop
this illegal and unwarrantabe interference
between the city and the ward boards, try
in. to establish distinction where there is
no difference, tn" schools would go on
tremendously. and the cause of public ed,l-
cation would receive new impetus in the
right direction in the city Of New Orleans.

President Second Ward Board School

CRYING FOE JUSTICE.

Before the election in Georgia, the
Democratic papers insisted that the Presl-
dent was only sending troops into the
State for the purpose of securing Re
publican triumph by menacing and terri
flying the white people. When the cleo
ton was in progress this same charge was
repeated, and the government was de-
nounced from one end Of the country to
the other as being engaged IN the despotic
game of using the national forces 70 carry
local elections. Since the election, the
Democrats admit that the contest was
peacefully conducted, but they do not
recant their SANDERS as to why the Presi-
dent sent troops to Georgia. Having won
the election, it is no longer possible for
the Democrats to charge that the Presi-
dent intended to carry the State by the
use of the military, for the soldiers were
the very means by which a Democratic
victory was won. Hundreds Of colored
people did not vote because they were so
sure of protection that they did not unite
for their own safety. Hundreds of white
people attended at the polls, and
voted because they felt that the troops
would preserve the peace. These two
reasons operated to give Georgia TO the
Democrats: and yet the Democrats have
never had the manliness to declare that
they slandered the President, when they
charged him with intending to control the
election. They admit that peace was
preserved and that thereby they won the
contest; but they are too weak TO &C
knowledge that they had accused the
troops of designs which had never entered
into the head Of any Republican in au-
thority. If guilty conscience is its own
accuser, has not the speech and conduct
of the Georgia Democrats fairly proved
that if they had the power, all elections
should be carried in their favorl If men
are inclined to be guilty themselves, what
evidence is needed of their inclination but
the fact that they charge others with
doing what they would do, if occasion
permitted: And that the Georgia Democ-
racy would do this very thing has been
proved dozen times in New Orleans, as
the best citizens Of this city can fully
testify.
