The weekly Elko independent. [volume] (Elko, Nev.) 1872-1887, 1878-04-07

Mr.. l.. NJ. Mckinney, compiler and
publisher Of tho new Pacific Coast
Directory, arrived here from the west
to-day, and has been engaged in dis
tributing copies of his yaluabls work
to the numerous subscribers in town,
during the day. The present edition
is the largest, N well as by far the
most valuable Of any work Of n like
character ever issued upon this coast.
1t is Il complete business directory of
the Pacific States and Territory, and
after q thorough examination of the
work, we have no hesitancy in recon-
meudiug it AS the best and most con-
veniently arranged for reference Of any
directory yet produced upon this coast.
IN connection with tho names of the
towns and their business men, ar
ranged in alphabetical order, it also
contains descriptive sketches of the
various places, their population. chief
industry. main reliance, etc. The in
formation it embodies being fresh and
accurate. renders it invaluable to every
business man as Il ready reference, and
the nominal price OF $500 ut which it
j. sold, brings it within the reach Of
all.

WEDNESDAY EVENING. JULY 10, 1878.

HUNTER SELF CONVICTED. The law under
which prisoners are permitted to testify 10 their
own behalf went into operation in New YORK
eight years ago, and was adopted in New Jer-
sey soon after. 1t is undoubtedly wise and
wholesome act in double sense, It belrs to
acauit the innocent, ard it also helps to convict
the guilty. If Bepjamin Hunter bad had no
part or lot in the murder of Armstrong be
might have told the jury story which would
have secured bis immediate acqulttaI. Suspl:
oious circumstances may sometimes surrouod
an Innocent man, but given fair opportunity
he can almost always explain those creumstau'
ces satisfactorily. When it happens, however
that the accused is guilty of crime OF violence
he usually damages his cause by appearing 10
his own behalf. He can never tell for certain
how much the prosecution knows concerning
him. In bis desire to know everythDg that
may hurt him, he is almost certain 10 expose
his falsehoods before he has gone very far
This is what Hunter seems 10 have done; tor
all the members of the jury declare that rs soon
as they heard his testimony land not sooner)
they were unanimously convinced of his guilt
