Pioche daily record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1872-1876, 1872-10-23

the issue In our answer to the animad-
versions of that paper on the County
Commissioners. This is not correct; we
did not attempt or desire to evade the
point made by the Review. That paper
contended that the County Commission
ers were responsible for the mistake in
the time of closing the registration. We
said they were not. That they have
nothing in the world to do with that
business either in the publication of the
notices or any other action taken under
the law, save appointing Registrars in
precincts in which there is no Justice of
the Peace and providing the Registrars
with books. That is what We intimated
and what We now repeat. Further the
Review says that the Commissioners
published notice concerning the clos
ing of the registration. They did moth
ing of the kind. They published no
notices, nor had they the right to do so
under the law. The only duty the Board
| has to fulfill, is, as we said before, to
| appoint Registrars in certain cases and
supply the proper books. We don't
| know what the heview has discovered or
| what it has not, but We do know that
| registration notices, in which the same
mistake occurs, were published in
| Storey, White Fine, ander and we
| think in Ormsby counties. In Storey,
L ander and Crmnsby the error was dis
covered in the last few days of registra-
| ton and announcements made to that
effect. The notices in Humboldt were
| correctly given at first. In conclusion
we say, let every tub stand upon its own
bottom. If the County Commissioners
or any other body, or officer make mis-
takes, let he or they take the blame, but
it is no use to find fault with one officer
because another has committed an error.
Be as savage, as bitter. as unrelenting
as you please, but avoid unfairness or
| injustice.
DAILY MAn.-Our citizens will be
pleased to learn that the daily mail SER
vice will commence this morning. The
stage will start at the usual hour, s
o'clock, for Hamilton. This arrange
ment supplies want that has been very
apparent for the past two months and We
are sure the inhabitants of Phoebe will
appreciate the change. The business of
Phoebe is daily increasing, as vast num-
bers of new corners are also adding rap
idly to its population, while the great
foundation and canse of all this &C.
tivity, the mines, never looked better
since the settlement of the camp than
hey do now. AS the expenses of a daily
mali line, traversing for such great dis
lance, thinly settled country must be
very great We trust the Postoftice De
partment will so remunerate the service
that the public spirited proprietors will
be well reeumpenced for the additional
outlay. We are sure that if to secure
this, proper statement of the circum-
stances to the Department from our citi-
zeus is needed 1t will be at the service OF
the propretors of the dlily stage line.
This evening the citizens of Phoebe
will have an opportunity of judging fol
themselves as to the respective merits O
Messrs. Kendall and Goodwin as debat
ers. The Carson Appeal and the Yir
ginia Enterprise have chosen to deer.
Mr.. Kendall and to asset that Jpdg,
Goodwin is the victor in these contests
but as those folks would assert anythin.
in the line of an election dodge or politi
cal matters generally, little credence il
to be given them, especially as ON tn,
other hand the Virginia Chronicle, hide
pendent aud the Liberal papers, declar,
exactly the reverse to be the case. Fo
our own part we have implicit faith il
, the usefulness and honesty of Mr.. Ken
dill's past Congressional career and hi
ability to beat his competitor both in ar
gument and on the day of election.
