WHO SHALL BE GOVERNOR I.

"John Abbott of Naples, Illinois,
writing to the State Register to ask its
"views with reference to the election of
another Governor in the year 1876" pro-
ceeds to give his own views. "Judge
higbee," he says, ''is worthy and fit.
ting gentleman for that august position
also Ex-Governor John NJ. Palmer, who
has been weighed In the scales of justice
and not found wanting. He, hero-like
and true to his patriot nature, and his
distinguished position, defended the con-
ssitut,onal rights Of our people and State.
Notwithstanding the miserable, wrctched
and sycophantic howlings Of the hireling
and venal press. 1t would be but CON-
mon justice to that patriot gentle
man to re-elect him governor. 1t is my
opinion such an act will be agreeable to
our people,"
'John Abbott does not admire Hon.
John NJ. Palmer more than we do His
Is one Of the great minds of the nation
and We believe him to he pure-minded
and clean-handed. No other person com.
prehends more clearly than he the true
character Of our political institutions and
the necessities OF the people of each

Radical candidate for Governor he would
receive our hearty support, but we do
not believe he could be induced to enter
the canvass Of next year as candidate
for the gubernatorial chair. lie is well
aware of the fact, that the political stua-
ton in Illinois is peculiar" and that il
is just possible he may not be the man
who can unite all the elements of opposi-
ton to Radicalsm. 1t il true he has been
to the Independent Reformcrs leader,
has been on the most intimate terms Of
friendship with the Democrats and has u
large following of Liberals; but the In
dependent Reform people, being new In
politicians in short clothes--not
yet grown beyond the years Of baubles.
sweetmeats and nickles-may have to
be coaxed to keep them from pouting
and going over to our Radical neighbor
for sympathy. 1t may be necessary to
give them the gubernatorial nomination
and they may not accept Mr.. Palmer.
Ii they won't, he cannot hope to step
into the shoes he lett to be occupied
by Mr.. Beveridge. and he must wait. 1t
Is probability that the Independent
Reformers will nominate for Governor
one Of the gentlemen who manage them
with 30 much skill, most of whom are
gentlemen who will be unobjectionable
to the Democrats of the State.

Presidents special favoritcs now is Mr..

ocean. They contain less than forty
thousand native population. and about
five hundred Europeans and Americans
are engaged In trade In the principal

WHO ms TIGATFD THE PRO-
CEEDINGS.

EDITOR SILVER STATE: You will oblige
many of the readers of your paper by
giving the name of the person or persons
who iushgated the proceedings which
led to your arrest. SUBSCRIBER.
To comm ence proceedings of the
character referred to an affidavit has to
TO sworn TO before O Justice of the
Peace. The County Clerk certifes
that the Justice before whom the
affidavit is sworn to is legal officer,
and his certificate is sent with the
affidavit to the United States District
Court. In this case John Ragsdale and
I. V. Julien took the affidavit to
Justice Davis, before whom it was
subscribed and sworn to. 1t was then
taken by T. V. Julien to the Clerk s
Office, where the Clerk attached his
certificate to the instrument, that job
Davis is Justice of the Peace, after
which it was forwarded or taken, as
Subsequent events prove, to the United
States District Attorney at Carson.
That is all that we positively know
about the matter, though We heard
j. j. Hill say to G. s. Varian, at Car
son, that t. V. Julien informed him
lHill) that Varian instituted the pro-
ceedings. and we heard Mr.. Varian say
that if Dir. Julien said so he lied. That
Is all the information We can give Sub
scriber at the present time on the
subject.

The Death OF Mrs. II. w. HaviIand
The Grange and its New Officers
Farmers still Piowing-Liti
tion Ahead.s
PARADISE VALLEY, Dec. f3, 1875.
EDITOR SILVER STATE: Since my
last, death has visited our valley. and
took from US one of our best and most
respected women-the wife Of NJ. w.
Hayiland. Her death was sudden and
unexpected, aud do not know of any
thing that could have startled our citi-
zens more. She was a lady in every
/ sense Of the word, and commanded the
respect and love Of ell our people.
Her bereayed husband has the sympa-
thy OF the entire community. The
other sick folks are recovering, and so
far as l have learned this morning
there are no new cases. and there has
been mons for the last few Gays.
The Changers met on the day ap-
pointed and elected officers for the
ensuing year. j. i. Case and John
Mullinix made some remarks on the
question. 4" What good or harm has the
Grange done 2" and handled the SUBJ
ject in an able manner. Joseph Brad
shaw was elected Master for the next
year; G. W. Hinkey, Overseer, and
John Mullinix Secretary. These are
three good and responsible men, whom
We think will fill their respective posi-
tons with credit and honor. Our
present Master, b. T. Riley, will retire
with the thanks and esteem of the
Order. Talk about the Grange failing.
there is no such word known to us.
Farmers are still blowing; the most
of them will have good start for their
spring work. The weather has been,
and is now very fine. and favorable for
blowing.
Our singing school is in full running
order, aud is carried on by Professor
Riley. We have fue times on Sundays
at 10A. NJ. The professor is trying
very hard to teach the young ladies
what dough- do is.
The Christmas tree and ball is still
under way. Anticipations are running
very high with the young felix's. AS
for myself, l very seldom take part in
such things.
II have been led TO believe there will
be heavy litigation about our free fight.
and our local counselors will have an
other chance. y.

A CASE FOR THE CHARITABLE.


OREANA, Dec. II, 1875.
EDITOR SILVER STATE: On the 18th
Jlstant Mrs. Mary Brown while walk
ing over some old RAILROAD ties made q
misstep and fell, breaking her leg,
which wedged between two of the ties.
1t is peculiarly unfortunate affair, as
she but recently came from her home
In the east to this station to join her
husband, who soon after his wife's ar
rival lost his position as foreman of u
China gang at this station. They have
both endeavored to obtain employment,
but there being no business carried on
at present in this place. they conld get
no situation; consequently she lies
here with no means to procure the SER
vices OF q surgeon, aud her husband,
poor fellow, Is helpless.
Is this not case for the county?
See the Compiled Laws OF Nevada,
Section 1854.
Our Honorable County Commits
sioner, OF Rye Patch, to whom / have
applied. thinks ne can do nothing; in
fact refuses to assist this unfortunate
woman, because it will cost the county
something.
The kind Of economy shown by our
Commissioners thus far does not
warrant Us as a community from ex-
pscting at least a little bit of charity
whom it is due.
l cannot believe the law does
preclude the case above referred to
from assistance, as it is a just one, and
you will oblige many citizens by making
tie case public, and by giving your
views in the matter. Yours truly,
