A ACTION.

General c. C. Ba,tsrman has no rea-
son to regret that he failed OF gaining
the nomination for Governor at the
Eureka Convention. His action at the
last moment has surrounded his name
with more real glory than he could have
gained even by an election. He was
slaughtered by the County Central Com
mittee OF Storey. and rather than be
placed in a false position. by even the
appearance Of conniving at the disrup-
ton Of his party in this county. the
General preferred no, to go before the
Convention at all. In acting thus. he
took from his numerous friends and fol-
lowers in Storey county all possible
cause Of complaint. and wheeled thom
into line to fight the grand battle against
Democracy in November next. He sac
rifced his own aspirations to saw his
party. 1t was a commendable nc, on
his part. and one which the Republican
party OF Nevada will not be likely to
forget loon.
