Carson daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1873-1877, 1875-10-28

As before noticed in these columns,
an effort is being made to disincorporate
Carson City. To test the constitutions
ality Of the act Of incorporation the case
was taken to the Supreme Court, and
yesterday was the day set for hearing.
The case is stated a. the State q NevaiG
ex rel Joseph EoseEstock vs.. 5. I. Swift
Robert II. Clarke is counsel for Mr. Ro-
senstock, and A. {. Ellis is counsel :lr
Mr.. Swift. Mr.. Clarke made his argu-
ment yesterday. NJ. Ellis viii be heard
on Saturday next. The opposition to
learn, arises less from the tax it neces-
states than from the power It gives to
the Trustees. 1t is claimed that the
severity exercised in the Imposing Of
fines upon working men who visit the
town for the purpose Of trading with
our merchants, and who become elated
with strong drink, has the effect Of driv-
ing them elsewhere for the purchase Of
necessaries. Then the possibility Of
making license SO high as to destroy
the business of some men who have
their all invested therein. is another Oh
lection urged. Opposition comes from
another quarter-those whose property
is effected by the ordinance in relation
to houses Of i'll fame. We mention these
points Of opposition from a desire TO
state the case Of the opponents Of the
incorporation fairly, and not as cOnsid-
eriDg them sufficient cause Of action.
We consider them as opposed to much
needed order and improvement. II is
claimed that the majority of the taxpay-
ers of our town are opposed 10 the in
corporation, at least two to one. OF the
correctness of this estimate We have at
present no means Of judging. We only
know that $3.50 has been raised for the
prosecution of this case. aud $3.50 moro
promised Nr. Clarke if he is successful.
On the authority of Mr.. Rosenstock We
give the names Of some Of the principal
ones who have contributed toward the
prosecution of this matter. They are
Nj Rinkle, $50; Mr.. Chamberlain,
$25; Mr.. Rosenstock, s25; Mr.. Win
ston, S25 Mr.. Conner, $25; Messrs.
Bright & Simpson, S25; Sol. Simpson,
SOS; Messrs. Kelly 4 Hofer. SO; Mr..
Foster, $40; Mr.. Benton, $40. But the
number opposed has no effect on the
case. 1t all hinges on the constitution
atty of the Act under which the town
was incorporated.

ACCIDEST.-A serious accident occur
red at Jefferson to Mexican, on Friday
last, whose name We cid not learn. He
was dragged by refractory mule for
some three or four hundred yards over
rough ground and boulders. During his
rapid transit the first thing he came in
contact with was large post near
Lambs Hotel, which he struck with
such force As to uproot the post and
throw it nearly across the street. The
unfortunate man was dragged along
until reaching an Indian wickiup, when
one Of the natives had the presence Of
mind to cut the lariat, thereby saving the
sufferer from an urtimely end. He vas
afterwards taken up more dead than
alive. and put to bed at Lambs Hotel.
DIR. Jennings was sent for, who imme-
diately attended the sufferer, and 70 are
informed he is in . fair way to recover.

THE STORM IN CALIFORNIA.

Our neiRhbors of the other side of the
Sierra are hard to please. II they are
without railroads they are restless and
feverish till somebody builds one for
them and then they are uneasy lest the
same should not be taxed and leSislated
for Then when party with power in
taxing and legislating suggests the doing
of those things, great cry of agony and
lamentation prevails in the land. In dry
times they pray for rain; in hot times
they pant for shade ard shower: but
when rain-storm comes they are seized
with hydrophobia, and when the mer-
curry in the Thermometer drops below the
eighties they chatter as with the chiils Of:
an Arctic rigor and murmur against the
severity of the cold. While we Of
Nevada are rejoicing over the pluviai
dispensation that has just come upon Us.
the Sacramento Record. shrivilled with
the chilly air that whistles around the
railroad stations of the Central Pacific,
losses its unaccustomed umbrella into q
corner and relieves its over-burdened
soul in these sad words. as follows:
Politicians who have been depressed
by fear lest the cunning of the manipUI-
lators who prepared the platform for the
Republican State Convention should
have left very little opportunity to make
fresh capital ~ the arts of the DEM
acogUe. are now afforded au opportunity
TO steal a march upon their late rivals
by availing themselves OF the rain-sto-m
to incite sympathy. There are yet two
State Conventions to be hello. and i: il
in the power of both of them to solicit
the Granger vote by taking strong
ground against discrimination in the
weather. by that high handed Mcnopolist
commonly called Providence. 1t mUs:
be patent to all that the weather we have
been having the past two days has not
been regulated bv the least regard for
the public interests. In fact. it has dis
played marked Indifference to the well
fare of the agricultural classes, and is
therefore proper object of protest. reg
ulation ard denunciation. The hide
pendents viii probably take advantage
of the opening thus afforded them. and
will introduce to their platform a reso-
luton: That We are opposed TO ram
storms in the month of June; that they
are contrary to public policy; and that
the legislative candidates of this party
should be pledged to vote for a bill re-
stricting the discharge of rain to such
seasons as will render it accessory to the
best intera,s. # agriculture" 1t is need
less to say that such an expression would
leave anything in the Republican plat
form far behind, and that it would
enable the Independents to enter the
field with an entirely new Issue.

SOMETHING OF THE Sioux CHIEFS
The New York Herald bad reporter TO
visit the Sioux chiefs at the Grand Cen
trail Hotel when they were in New York.
Here are some of the remarks made in
that paper:
Among the chiefs are Spotted Elk, n
big fellow, who has some English mus
tard plaster over his hight eyebrow, of
which he is SO proud that he is contin-
uslly looking at himself in the glass in
his room. He also wears as an orna-
,nent pendant from his neck q tin horse,
cut out of piece of block tin. He needs
nothing more to make him happy, it is
said, but to have few empty soda water
bottles on string aad stale buckwheat
cake. with hole bored in it, and some
red tape. Bull Eagle. a tall. stalwart
and strapping Indian chief, Is quite good
looking. but has a hang-dog. sensual
box. This fellow, or rather devil. IS The
leader of party of Sioux who captured
Mrs. Fanny Kelly, now in Washington,
ard who vas at the time Of her capture
but newly married. Her husband was
brutally murdered by these assassiDs,
and airs. Kelly, young and handsome
woman; of refined feelings. had to sub
NIT to thousand indienities during her
10 months captivity at the hands of Bull
Eagle and his associates. Property OF
the family to the amount of $l7. 600 was
taken from her after the murder of her
husband, and her three months infant
was impaled on q tent pole by Bull
Eagle and his fellows. Mrs. Kelly was
confronted by the scoundrals in Wash
ineton few days since. and Lone Horn
expressed his sorrow and shame to the
writer for what been done by his people.
1t is strange and yet it is very true. that
these Indians who have been guilty of
this most horrible crime were yesterday
allowed to fondle and caress and play
with little children who were brought
into their rooms by foolish and unthink-
ing nurses.

a SCHEME 10 ANNEX CANADA.

A convention is to be held at Buffalo
on the 4th Of July to promote the scheme
Of annexiEg Canada to the United States.
1t is said hat this convention will con-
sist Of three delegates from each Con-
gressional district in the United States
and three from each Parliamentary dis
trict in the British provinces. This is

ministration in a different direction, but
this is a two-sided question, and we can
think Of but few reasons why the Cana.
dams should desire to be taken under
the wing of our government. They have
a good home government, reasonable
laws and taxes, immunity from war
misrule or internal broils, and
have every reason to be vel
satisfied. If they want to become 9
part and parcel of this country, with III
frequent elections, corrupt officials, bi,
monopolies and enormous national
State, comfy and municipal debts, ther
they are bigger fools than the world hai
ever supposed; and we venture to SAY
that nine-tenths Of them would vot,

The Citizens Union.

To the Editer Of the Ledger;
Allow me to thank you for the kind
and generous manner with which you
have always received my communica-
tons, and many friends say, God speed
you in your fearless defense Of the
rights of our citizens and the expose
you always deal to fraudulent transac-
tons when brought 10 your notice.
Would that all our journals would ex-
hibit the same fairness; soon would the
charge of venality be forgotten. Apro-
pos Of the Peoples Protective Union, as
l hear they are about ~disbanding. They
have done a good work, and all honor is
due to the men who, against the strong
est opposition, especially Of the press
(which, like a woman, always will have
the last word), have effected so much.
Our taxes have been reduced, our useless
courts and officers have been cut off, and
since the acceptance of the five reliable
gentlemen who we're selected to fill the
responsible position Of commissioners
l for one, feel as does every good
citizen, safe in entrusting our most i'm
portant affairs in their hands. They are
men well known and incorruptible, and,
moreover, they are all members of the
Peoples Protective Union, to which
Memphis owes so much, and who have
done their work and done it well. As q
prophet is not without reward, save in
his own country, so it may not be in this
day and generation that their services
will be appreciated at their just value,
but as they did net labor for reward or
praise, they will be content.
l do not like to individualize, but
feel hat the people Of our city owe a
great debt of gratitude to Messrs. Tyler
and Alexander, the Secretary and assist
ant Secretary, who, with indefatigable
industry, built up the Protective Union
to its present influential proportions
and when the wars of political opposi-
ton relied against the Association,
stood nndaunted at the helm and guided
Their honored bark safe through the
breakers Of discord and interested oppo-
sltion. Dear LEDGER-like most things.
the smaller the more precious; your
sheet is small, but contains more spice
than all the city journals put together.

WASHINGTON, April 27.-In addition
to the names Of the injured given in last
nights dispatch are the following: Hugh
Herman, Of Baltimore, formerly proprie-
tor of the Theatre Comique in this city,
both ankles badly mashed; S. E. Everett,
City Treasurer Of Cleveland, Ohio, Sc
we're cpt on the forehead H. r, Stevens,
of Ohio, slight scratch on back Of the
left hand; G. +. Needham, Of Sixth Au-
ditor's Office, both legs broken below the
knees C~rittenden Crone, brakeman on
the Philadelphia train, wounded slightly
in right kree; J. Il. Robinson, OF this
city, badly bruised about the legs.
Conductor Buchanan, in his account Of
the accident, states that he left on time,
and after passing the navy yard station
he found the train going extremely fast
and on a track it should not be upon. He
pulled the signal rope for the engineer
to down brakes and stop; the signal was
not needed, and the rope was pulled a
second time for a Stoppage Of the train
and again not properly responded to.
AT this time Buchanan was in the rear
OF the passenger car looking after tick.
cts. When be found his directions we're
neither noticed or obeyed, and that his
train was increasing in speed, be became
alarmed, thinking that the rope, in
passing through the cars or over the ten.
der, had become fast and thus prevented
the bell on the engine from sounding.
He started to go forward and give a vel
bal order for the train to return to the
double track. The failure of the gong to
sound or the engineer to hear and obey
il caused the accident. Before Buchanan
could leave the car the two engines had
met. Buchanan had just reached the
car door and was about opening It, when
the collision jammed his head through
the glass window, inhicting wounds. He
feels satisfied il the signal had been
properly and promptly answered by the
engineer the catastrophe could have
been ayerted.
