Pioche daily record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1872-1876, 1873-02-05

In JUSTICES CoURr. Yesterday, in
the Justices Court, Isaac Hinzman was
called up to answer the charge of dis.
turbing the peace. He was arrested two
or three weeks ago and put under bond
to appear. From day to day he appeared
like man who wished to atone to the
offended law in good faith; but as often
the case had to be continued for the
reason that it was not represented on
the side of the prosecution. At last the
Justice felt it to be his duty, both to the
accused and the public-as the county
must foot the bill of these continuances
to enter an order of dismissal. The
State VS.. John Calvin is q case which
ran the same course and came to the
same termination-dism for want OF
prosecution. The District Attorney
should appoint competent deputy to
attend to his business in the Justice s
Court, or attend to it himself.
WITHOUT FoUNpATIoN.--A report was
generally circulated yesterday that the
Raymond & Ely Company had resolved
to suspend operations, owing to their
dumps all being full, and the Superin-
tendent being unable to get teams to
haul away ore, thus temporarily throw
ing 400 miners out Of employment. As
soon rs we heard of the report we re-
paired to the Office of Capt. Day, to as
certain if it were true; and it grati6es us
to be able to say that this important COM
pany will not, under any circumstances,
fully suspend operations for single
day. But the dumps are certainly filled
with ore to their utmost capacity, haul
ing facilities are inadequate, and much
embarrassment in hosting ore is appre-
hended. However, operations under
ground will be but slightly curtailed, even
If it should be necessary temporarily to
stop hosting.
DRAWING Bow1E-KNIFE.--Night be-
fore last, in place of public resort in
the city, as we get the particulars from
an eyewitness, two men got into an al
tercation over a game OF cards, when one
of them, seizing the other SO he could
not resist, drew bowie-knfe, aimed
the point of it at his heart, and, holding
it there several seconds, made the threat
ened man accede to some demand con-
corning the game before sheathing it.
This bold attempt at murder was made
in the presence OF large number, at an
early hour of the night, and in the very
center of the city; yet no arrest was
made or attempted. Whittier are We
drifting? We fear a popular uprising
will give fearful answer, ere long, il
more vigilance and vigor are not soon
manifested in the execution OF the laws.
STATE VS.. WIN. McCRApY, ALIAS SA-
GAclTY.-" Sagacity" knew the snow
storms were coming. and showed his sa
seriousness by appropriating two pairs
OF blankets belonging to q miner. His
sasacity was at fault, however, in com
mltting such theft when there was ,
standing reward of 800 for the arres
and conviction OF each one OF the larcen
ating class Of which he is so distin
gulshed an ornament. He was shaded
with the property in his possession, ant
isnow in jail awaiting his trial, whicl

having been fully identified by the owner
officer Corwin arrested Sagacity."
