A oCrLoox.

Sutro this morning asks The ~citissns
OF Storey county II "thsy arc satisAsd
with the present outlook" For the re-
lief Of the hungry few who hang "upon
the ragged edge Of despair surrounding
Mr.. Sutro and his tunnel swindls, We
suggest that the outlook at present is
very catering. II really appears as IL
Virginia City and Gold Hill would con-
tinus tn flourish on the side Of Mount
Davidson; that the property owners Of
thsss two towns viii not Be forced to buy
town lets Of Sutro during the present
year; that the attempt to tunnel into the
private property Of stockholders in the
Comstock Lode and rob than Of val
uablss bought and paid for. will prove
abortive. The outlook Is cheering. It
looks a. though the miserable sdvsn-
turer. who. has no interest IN common
with Nevada or her people. except that
Of an express robbsr. would be repu-
dated so fatty and unequivocally that
even his thick hide will fsel the blow;
his case-hardsned check blanch at the
inevitable failure OF the most audacious
scheme Of robbey and devastation ever
planned by a hypoeritical demagogus.
The outlook is cheering. 1t appears
that the people are prosperous; that the
mining situation is fattsring; that
stocks in our mines are going up. and
stock in the great Assyrian bore Is going
down. It furthermore appears that the
Dependent has at last convinced the ma
jority Of Storey county people OF the
true character Of its master. and sx-
posed the influences which led to its ss-
Enlistment. The outlook Is cheering.
There 10 reason to apprehsnd that the
efforts Of demsgogues to disrupt both
party organizations, and crowd into
power between the legs Of honest voters
will be unsvailius; that the people fully
realize the mission and interests OF this
so-cailed Independent clique; that prop
erty owners are not ready for Commun-
ism; that working men are not ready
for the rule Of European monsy.lend-
srs; that the State il not willing to b
rsvolutionizsd by sneak-thieves and
.windlsrs. The outlook IL cheering. i.s.:
