sTHE BLOODY SHIRT.n-If some papers calling
themselves Republican, would devote less space
to fault-fnding with their own party, and more
to fighting the enemies of the party, they would
accomplish more good. For instance, the Leav-
enworth Times recently contained an article de-
nouncing Republican speakers for warning the
public against the schemes of the unrepentant
rebel politicians. This article, which is approx
ipgly copied By all the Democratic papers in the
State, says that is hardly the thing, while send
ing our charitable contributions to the suffering
people of the South, to keep men on the stump
whose sole stock in trade is wholesale abuse of
these same people. The Times knows perfectly
we'll that Republican speakers do not abuse the
suffering people of the South, but the rebel poll
ticians, who are as much rebel to-day as they
were in 1862, and who are bent upon accomplish
ing the same objects now that they were then.
As sufficient answer to its own article, the
Tines published but day or two afterwards, the
declaration of Robert Tombs, endorsed by the At
lsnta Constitution, that the first and only work be-
for the Democracy was the destruction of the Re-
publican party, and until that was accomplish
ed, all questions of finance and other issues
must be kept aside. Nice talk, isn't it, for suf-
fsring Southern peoplei Republican speakers
must not denounce them, because they are suf-
fering Southern people, but must allow them to
20 ahead and destroy the party that the Times
Processes to belong to. Again, little later, the
Times published an account of the letter of Ben.
Hill, declaring that the President Hayes holds
his Office by fraud, and must be impcached.
Here is the announcement of determination to
again plunge the country into turmoil, and per-
haps revolution; but Republican speakers must
not raise their voice against it, because the North
is sending supplies to the suffering people of the
South! The Times has not been very happy in
ita fault- finding in this resnect

THE LATE SHOOTING AT WARD.
Says the Ward Reter of Saturday last

Says the Ward Retfer of Saturday last:
Friday evening last about 8 o'clock, jerry
Quinn was shot by Horace D. Beene, in Hal
lowells saloon, the ball striking the point Of
the ribs on the left side, ranging downward
and lodging several inches below the left hip
bone on the outside, where it was extracted
by Dr. Olsten-the ball being found about an
inch and half from the surface. The wound
is by no means dangerous one, as it skim
med along the surface from the point of q =
trance to the point where found-a distance
of perhaps fifteen inches The cause of the
trouble so far as we are able to learn Is this
number of men were assembled in the club
room attached to Hallowell's saloon, on the
evening above mentioned, and were having a
good time, singing, etc. Horace Beene
was present, and being a little "enthused, .
called for "Dixie" One of the party, whose
name we did not learn, sang Parody on
Dixie, at which Horace took offense and left
the room. He returned in a few minutes
and drew a six shooter, accompanying the
action with threats. One of the occupants of
the room. Jas. O'Brien, seized the pistol and
pulled 1t down. Beene held on to the weapon
until it was discharged with the result above
stated, when it was taken from him About
the same time Hallowell seized Beene by the
throat and they fell to the floor together
O'Brien, after getting possession OF the pistol,
struck at Beene several times The latter
was taken out of the house and placed in
charge of Deputy Sheriff J. c. Edwards
After all this had taken place Jerry Quinn
coolly remarked that he had been shot, and
was taken to Dr. Olsten's office, where the
necessary surgical aid was rendered, and he
was removed to Mrs Yates lodging house
Jerry is at this time doing well, and will
doubtless soon recover. He says there is no
bad blood between him and Horace Beene.
The latter was brought before Justice Murray
Saturday morning, waived an examination,
was required to give bonds in the snm of
81 900, which he did, and was discharged.
In a conversation with Mr.. Beene since the
affair, he says he is well aware he pulled the
pistol, but that he had no intention of shoot
ing; further, that he proposes to pay any and
all expenses incurred on account of the
wound inflicted These are the facts as near
as it is possible to arrive at them. Jerry
Quinn, as is well known, lost a leg several
years ago, and is an industrious and well
meaning man. Occasionally he INDUCES in a
little blowout but has never been known
to engage in quarrel-not even a heated
argument. We are unwilling to believe that
any one would assault Jerry with a siX-shooter
under any circumstances. The pulling of the
pistol was inexcusable, and we do not know
Of anything that can be pleaded in palliation
of the act, no matter what the intention
might have been.

GOOD ONE ON HART.

The Sentinel tells the following good one:
A good one is told on Fred Hart, of the
Austin RereiUe. 1t will be remembered tn at
Fred. was made Assistant Clerk of the swap
ping Convention which met here day before
last. For his services he was literally re-
warded, but 10th to chance his earnings at a
gaming table he proposed loaning it on col
latterals. Deacon Parkinson, of the Carson
Tribune, informed him that he was short Just
81 80, with which to pay his fare home, and
requested the loan of that amount. Fred was
willing to loan but demanded the Deacon's
watch as security. Henry Lyons, a member
of the Convention from White Pine County,
taking in the conversation, approached Hart,
and said he too, was troubled with the
'pecuniary shorts, and requested loan upon
his watch of $25, which the Shylock ''done"
at ten per cent. per month. Lyons got rid OF
an bride watch, worth so, upon the little
joker, and then left for home.

"THE NATION, AS THEY CALL IT. ,

The Chronicle of last evening attempts to
explain away Mr.. Deals unhappy allusion to
the Nation composed of the various States of
the American Republic 1t says that he said
that the Republican party had by unconstltu
tional means attempted to aggrandize the
Nation as they call it" Well, we don't see
how Mr.. Deal is bettered any by the correc-
ton What we said concerning him was
warranted by note of that part of his speech,
written down on the spot. We heard every
word he said distinctly, and if he did not
make use of the very words we reported and
in the very significant tone we have limited at,
we must confess that the sense of hearing as
is allotted to us isto ne purpose. But no mat
ter what he said Mr. Deal is a State Rights
Democrat He will not deny that, we sup
pose Now if he does hold that this is a
Nation it is easy enough for him to say so.
He is going to take the stump. Let him tell
his hearers distinctly that he believes that
this Union of States constitutes a National
government whose authority is supreme all
over the land, and the MORNING APPEAL will
confess itself mistaken.

CONCILIATORY, VERY.

In Eureka County in this State there are
two distinct and hotIy opposing factions of
the Democracy. One of them, led by our
gallant and very shrewd and able friend
Cassidy, may be designated as the anti
chivalry wing of the party, there. They
lent a very decided opposition to Bradley
denomination, SO long as there was any chance
to nominate somebody else. The chivalry or
Bradley wing of the party is led by Hon. G.
w. Baker He is the head and front of the
Iowa chivalry." The nomination of this
gentleman in the face of the fact that Cas-
sidys side of the party is largely in the ma
jority i'll Eureka County will not be so pro-
motive of harmony and ''The Era of good
feeling" as more conservative course would
have proven to be. However, we suppose
that in their general desire to see their party
win, even while swallowing the Bradlerian
crow, they will meekly accept Baker and rem
der unto his candidacy the support of truly
blind and unbendmg partisanship

OUT IN THE COLD.

Jerry Schooling seems TO have incurred
the displeasure of his Mightiness, the broad
horned Bradley. So the Convention was in
structed to drop the faithful Treasurer. They
did as they were told; and Jones was substi-
tuted for Schooling. They found it easy to
disregard their Third Term professions in
favor of Bradley but became singularly con-
scientious when it came to the nomination of
a Treasurer. The true inwardness of this
business will be made known all in good time.
1t will be an interesting and instructive story.

own organization and over the personnel of
the State Convention. 1t is an irrepressible

the nature of which at present is kept private.
Julian Avery Keefe, who was convicted in
the City Criminal Court yesterday of visiting
a gambling house, this morning cut his throat
from ear to ear, at his lodgings on Montgom
cry avenue, near Dupont street. He is still
alive but cannot recover. He stated after his
conviction that he was ruined, and the act is
doubtless attributable to that He was 81
years old and printer by trade.
Dissatisfied stockholders of the De Frees
mine will hold a meeting tomorrow evening
to endeavor to put in a new Board of Direc-
tors. The principal cause of complaint against
the present Board is that. as alleged, the
Grand Prize is working on De Frees ground,
and no effort made to prevent it by the Di-
rectors, President Grayson being heavily in
terested in the Grand Prize, and consequently
indifferent in the matter. 1t is also held that
a bonanza exists on or below the 400 level, |
but the management avoids developing it for
reasons best known to themselves.
