THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION OF

On Saturday last the Republicans of Doug

Treasurer, A Livingstone; Clerk, Benz. Ed

tendent of Public Schools, X. Rice; County
Commissioners, Captain Pray, Long term,
Tip Carey Short term. The contest over the
senatorial nomination was very sharp, no less
than eight ballots being taken Also the fight
for Sheriff was very closely contested-there
being as many as four contestants in the field.
The ticket, however, is a strong one and will
doubtless be elected, right through

A MEAN AND CowARDLY ATTACK.

In Saturday evenings Tribune appeared
what purports to be circular addressed to
President Hayes and Secretary Schurz relat
ing to Hon. Sam c.. Wright, Receiver of
Public moneys at the Carson Land Office.
The intent of the missive is to procure MIR.
Wright's removal from that position. The
reasons assigned are that he takes an active
part in politics and is associated in the publ
cation of the MORNING APPEAL. A more con-
temptible attack was never made upon use
full and respected public officer. Mr.. Wright
has been Receiver of this Land Office for the
past ten years. He has been appointed three
times; first at the suggestion of Senator Stew
art, second at the suggestion of Senator Jones,
and third by the powers that be, of their own
volition. Mr.. Wright never sought the place.
1t came to him each time quite unsolicited.
He stands in the Land Department at Wash
ington as the very best and most trusted Off
Ger in the service. His reports are made out
and transmitted with regularity, every week,
every month and every quarter as by regula-
ton required. His responsibility and solvency
are known to everybody. Some cozening
rogue evidently wants his place. As to Mr..
Wrights owning, directly or indirectly, one
pennys interest in the MORNING APPEAL es-
tablishment, either as silent partner or cred
itor, the statement is as untrue as it is impu
dent and gratuitous. The concern belongs
solely to Mrs. Nellie V. Mighels

arrive. The Bee says that rumor gives it that
a race will be run in the near future between
Molle and Mark l., and that Lena Dunbar

off, and the horses are in good condition,
horsemen predict that the fastest time ever
made will be recorded. The race, if it should

apostle of State Rights, and will mingle their
tears with him over the fact the ''natlon, as
they call it, was preserved in it's entirety by
those who delight to remember the fact that
it is still nation The assaults of Mr.. Deal
and his brethren, and the sneers and slurs in
lulged in, and tendencies of the ruling ele
ment in Democratic politics that will be re-
membered by those who have pardonable
pride i'll the fact that we have a country. 1t
may be possible that, in the event of Mr..
Deals election, he would find some recon-
ponse for the hardships he endures in being
compelled to suffer the rule of an individual
nation, by voting for the compensation of
those Democrats who lost heavily in the civil
war in their attempt to destroy "this nation,
as they call it" We fear, however, that the
ambitious Deal will never have the oppor
eunity of reimbursing them, or casting his
ballot IN favor of the payment of Confederate

BATS BLOOD FOR BCNIONS.

Tho ReUetCLe relatsS the following:
A few nights ago two men walked into the
International Hotel barroom, and one of
them, noticing bat flying about the room,
said he would give five dollars for it if it was
caught alive. The barkeeper gave the man
permission to catch it, if he could, but in
quired what he wanted of it. The man re-
piled that ne wanted to catch the bat alive
and use it in that way as poultice for rheu-
matism. He and his companion organized
chase for the bat, striking at it with their
hats, but failed to catch 1t. Last night there
was another chase in the saloon for the bat,
by a man who said he wanted to bleed it and
apply the blood to bunion, he having been
told that the blood of bat was sure cure
for bunion. After an exciting chase, in
which several men took part, the bat was
finally knocked to the floor by blow from
feather buster, and the man with the bunion
put it into cigar box and started home with
it. We are acquainted with the man, and
will inquire of him if the bats blood cured
his bunion, and if it did re will let our
readers know all about it.

ATTACKED BY HOGS.

The Ward Retle1 of Saturday relates the
following
Sunday morning last, about 5 o'clock, w
Fl. Naylor, of the Star Restaurant, had a
close call. He is an early riser, the nature of
his business requiring it. On this particular
morning he proceeded to feed his porcne
quadrupeds, of which he has quite a number
One of the pigs by some means got his foot
fast in the trough and squealed ''for all that
was out. Billy, as he is commonly called,
went to the rescue and was beset by hogs big
and little He was knocked down and CON
fronted on all sides by mouths that were
opened wide. Billy kicked and struck out
right and left, yelled and did all and every
thing man could or would do under like cir
cumstances. He called for his Chinese cook
in voice there was no installing. Charley,
in company with another Celestial, appeared
upon the scene inside of ten seconds, and
overawed the hogs by noise that beggars des
cription A pack of coyotes would have
skulked away before the epithets turned
loose by these two Celestials couched in the
choicest of the Chinese tongue. The porcine
quadrupeds turned to see what new danger
beset them, but in the brief moment Naylor
sprang to his feet, cleared the whole drove
and assembled the steps of the restaurant close
" pursued. The damage: Billy was quite
severely bitten in the right hand, right leg
above the knee, and slightly on the chin,
besides having his clothes nearly torn off.
But for the timely arrival of the Johns the
hogs would certainly have made meal of
him.
