Carson daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1873-1877, 1874-12-08

sure enough, as big as life and twice
as natural, there was Cars name AZ
the editorial head as editorand bust
ness manager" AS illustrative OF the
fact that our hero took his peculiar
tiles with him, smooth tongue, sancti'
monious manner and all. We quote as
follows from the Third Number OF the
said Pdn0mint Ne,rS:
A DEAD BEAT. A WARNING TO
PUBLISH Frs AND THE PUBLIC.-Soiie
two weeks ago the Business Manager
of the .sPanamint Publishing Com
pauv" arrived in this place with press
and material to engage III the puOiica-
ton of q paper, bearing with him
letter of introduction to one ID. L. Carr.
The party writing the letter recon-
meuded the said Carr as suitable
person to assist in the editorial de-
partment, should any help be re-
0uired. AS soon as our building was
completed, this Carr was engaged to
write for tine paper. The once force
being light at the time, the Manager
was compelled to assist in the INSIDE
work incidental TO printing ONCE,
and to such an extent that he found 1t
absolutely impossible to attend to the
necessary .'outside" businesS-sOlicit-
ing advertisements, tire delivery ofthe
paper, etc., and subsequently en-
ploved Carr to attend to that part of
the business also. Carr at once
started out. and in short time,
through the liherality of the business
men Of Panamint, who were DESTROYS
of assisting in the establishment and
support OF newspaper, succeeded III
procuring nearly all of the cards which
are published in the NEWS. The first
paper was printed on the 2Gth instant,
and next day Carr delivered the paper 10
the numerous subscribers he had obtain
ed, collecting pay from all-ezcepting
perhaps a half-dozen or so-for one
weeks subscription. Instead, however,
of returning to the Office and paying over
the amount lie had collected, less nls
commission. he went TO many Of our
business men and represented to them
that he WAS member Of the 'Panamint
Publishing Company" that the Com
pany was short Of money TO pay the
men, etc. and on the strength of this,
succeeded in obtaining sums OF money
from them varying in amounts from 80
to 500, and on Saturday morning. at
an early hour, left for other parts, where,
undoubtedly, he will pursue a similar
course. OF tuls IeasOu We Sonsiuel ~
duty we owe the public to show this
dead beat" up in his true colors.
Among the victims of Carr are an old
woman who did washing for him; his
boarding house keeper; his shoemaker
for pair of SIS boots; An old friend
who was burned out in the Reno fire,
and who came here with little money
to open o chop-house; young man
who hauled him on his wagon from
Asrora, sharing his blankets with him,
and after arriving here loaniEg them to
him; and another man who is seriously
sick. Besides the subscriptions he re-
ceivad for the paper, he collected pay
| for three months advertising IL advance
from many Of our patrons. This loss
Will fall pretty heavily on the News, as
we have been at good deal OF expense
in commencing the publication of our
paper; but if the enterprisins citizens OF
Panamint will only ''lend Us hand
ard ''see us through, we will endeavor,
in very short time, to present to them
a paper which will not only represent,
bat do honor to the PanamiLt District.
