THE EccENTRicITlEs OF the SEN.
TERPRiSE."
IT'S MOCKERIES AND IT'S BLUS.
TERINGS.

In an article in the Territorial Enter
prise of yesterday wherein the subtle
Genius who furnishes forth the spicy but
not always digestible pabulum upon
which the readers of that cratic journal
are fed gives way to one of his peculiar
moods, and in which he seems to lash
himself into a vein of virtuous indigna-
ton over what he chooses to term our
faithlessness and irony (having reference
to our well meant explanations of Mr..
Jones' apparent remissness) that Sena-
torial aspirant is, without good cause or
sufficient provocation, treated to the fol-
lowing bit of merciless mockery:
The absence of = candidate from any or all po-
liticsl meetings-n he has not authorized the
use Of his name in connection herewith
matter fer which he is accountable to no one,
and it is an unjustihable invasion of the privileg
ed seclusion of private life to insinuate unworthy
motives for such action.
Now, while protesting to sustain Mr..
Jones, what excuse has the Enterprise to
sneer at his candidacy in that extraordin-
1IuS tudl
Jones does not feel himself accountable
to any political party and that his candi-
dacy has nothing to do with politics, but
is private, and, as it were, a purely com
mercial venture of his own, is the cruel
est stab given under the assumed guise of
friendship that we have ever heard of
Mr.. Jones needs no defence from US; but
we volunteer to denounce this mean insin-
uation as wholly unwarranted. That
gentleman does regard the Republican
party and its requirements and mandates
with respect, his home organ to tine con-
trary notwithstanding.
We have not space to follow all the
;wistings and turnings of this remarkable
.rticle, and we content ourselves with the
'ubjoined quotation from its blood-chin-

A ROAD FROM MERE TO CO.
MORE BUSINESS FOR CARSON /.
SOMETHING MORE NUTRITIOUS
THAN MERE POLITICS!

1t is . fact, and a very significant one,
that Carson City at this time, is receiving
and distributing more freights than any
town in the State of Nevada
even, than Virginia City. This indicates
the great necessity for doing all we may
to increase our means of communication
with near and remote localities where
business is springing up and whose natu-
raj means of egress to the business world
is through this chain of valleys. The
veriest tyro in matters of business econ
omy can understand the virtue and value
Of the proposition, That proportionately
with the increase of the number of roads
that concentrate here our business will be
enlarged and multiplied.
As our business people need not to be
told, there is, lying southeast of us, e
very rich and extensive mining and min
eral producing region known as the Co
lc-nbus District. The subject of the
closer connection of Carson and Colun-
bus is question with which we now
have to deal, and of which we propose to
treat in the present article.
We yesterday saw letter from Mr.
Joseph Aosheimer, agent of the Pacific
Borax Company, in which the necessity
is urged for opening a wagon road from
Columbus twhere this company's borax
mine is located) to point in Esmeralda
comfy known as the Nine Mile House.
