Horace Greeley, in speaking OF grum-
blers at newspapers, thus hits the nail
on the head
1T is strange how close men read
the papers We never cay anything
that any body don't like. but We soon
hear OF it and everybody tells us of it
II, however, once in while we happen
TO say good thing, we never hear OF
that; nobody seems to notice that. We
pay some man a hundred compliments,
aud give HIM dozen puis, and he
takes it all as tribute to his greatness,
and he never thinks it does bin any
good. But if we happen to say things
this man don't like, or something he
imagines is q reflection on him or his
character, see how quick he flares up
and gets mad about 1t. All our evils
are duly charged to US, but we never
apparently, get any credit for what
good we do.

As Indicative Of the correctness CT
Mr.. Summers idea, that England
would gladly see the United States
take such a stand as that this govern
ment would be instrumental in de-
stroying the Spanish Republic, the
following is entitled to some consid-
Grafton:
The Daily Telegraph says this morning:
Considerations of policy and humanity
would lead England to view favorably
the annexation of Cuba to the United
States. That the American Government
will await the re-assembling Of Congress
before taking action is evidence that its
policy will not be governed by popular
clamor. and We do not despair of
peaceful solution of the question" In
view of the difficulty the United States
would experience in retaining possession
of Cuba, if annexed. it suggests that the
United States Government acknowledge
the beiliserent rights of the insurgents
and ultimately guarantee the independ-
ence of the Island, asking to return the
abolition Of slavery.

| wise to remember and cast glance
at the other side of the question.
Other than the trunk line Of the
Central Pacific Company and the
narrow gauge line from Phoebe to
Bullionville, there are 10 railways in
Eastern Nevada. The press Of the
great counties in which lie the White
Pine, Eureka and Ely Districts has
strenuously averred that the taxpay-
ers of those counties are more than
willing to be taxed for the construc-
ton of railways which shall connect
their mines with the Central Pacific
They have not, yet, any railroads to
complain of; and they are anxious to
hear the snort OF the iron horse. So.
it seems. there may be something of
overlapping ones self, in proclaming
an unequivocal sentiment and pur-
pose of opposition to all present and
prospective railway enterprises -
regarding the expression of such
sentiments from the standpoint Of
the policy-broker. That there may
be. in the hearts Of some we wot of,
an honest and irreconcilabie sense of
opposition to railways and railway
managers, we 90 not pretend to
doubt. Amongst these is the out,
spoken and fearless conductor Of the
Enterprise. He would stand where
he does now, were he, like the veneer
able Benton, to find himself soil
tary and alone But there are
others than he-people who shape
their politics. as a mariner does his
sail, to catch the prevailing breeze of
opinion; and to these, and to those |
who. from whatever cause, feel in
.erested in looking at this curious |
md far reaching question, we COM
mend a thoughtful pursuit OF the
rain Of ideas of which we have given

following dispatch which is dated
Washington, November Is:
Information received from Madrid
shows that the Spanish Government is in
earnest in its professions Of friendship
for the United States. 1t expresses
anxiety to do everything in its power not
only to preserve but to strengthen the
peaceful relations now existing between
the two countries. Apart from the com
mercial relations with Spain, it desires
the general support Of the United States

took place at Pacific City, II miles

round. In the second round Allen
struck Hogan a heavy blow below

a second blow knocked him down.
The spectators cried foul" put the
referee ordered the fight to proceed.
In the third round Allen again
struck Hogan foul blow, and the
crowd broke over the rope. Knives
and pistols were freely fiourished,
and the fight was etfectually broken
up. When the crowd got on tie

The great race on Saturday was the
| all-absorbing topic on the streets to-day,
and the excitement has bv no means snb-
sided Various are the theories set up
about the manner in which the race was
won, the sinister ones and those who lost
heavily on Daniels and True Blue"
contending that an Arrangement had
been entered Into by which the race, af-
was given to ''Stevens." These parties
also account for the stevens selling so
low in the pools after the second heat
that 1t was apparent to the knowing
ones that the arrangements would have
to be broken, as Stevens" could not
win without exciting suspicion. It is
unnecessary to state how groundless
these charges are. Any one who wit
messed the race and knows anything of
hocse-racing, is perfectly aware that no
arrangement could be made and that
the California horses superior bottom
won the day. ANY other theory of the
race IS alike preposterouS and discredit-
able to the gentlemen owning the horses.
and to the society under whose auspices
the great race was run. 1t was unques-
tionabiy the squarest race ever Witnessed

PAYING OCT.
At an early hour this morning Gregg
( Bowlev, the pool sellers, began paying
ont the pools to the winners. Their
store on California street YVES throu9ed |
Icy an eager, happy crowd, whose III
vestments on ''OId Tnad'' had returned |
their coin trebled, and in many instances |
uuadrupled. At , O'Clock over $40, coo /
had been paid out. |
TREATS WINNINGS
The owner of ''Thad Stevens" Geo.
Treat, Esq, We have been informed Oh
good authority, rocketed about 10000 |
of the race, exclusive Of the $4,000

wonderful power of his horse never
wavered, and after True Blue and

the general confidence in '.Thud
Stevens was shaken, and he sold as
low as $50 in pools of $500 and 500
he bought as lively rs before the race be-
gan The result is that Mr.. Treat is a
heavy winner, as he deserves to be.
TALk ABOUT ANOTHER RACE.
There is a generally expressed desire

and Daniels" and, probably, negotia-
