The Conservative says that one Of its
force has received an anonymous com
munication, in reference to a blue rib
bon recently donned by him, coupled
with a passage from the Bible, and a re.
quest to publish. Such a communica-
ton only shows the cowardly and
depraved taste of the writer, who, not
having the courage to stand by his as
sertions, fortifies himself behind an as
sumed name. Such a person is only de-
serving of the contempt of all people
who call themselves respectable.

The bloody shirt.


e.Tbe Democracy have nominated a
gentleman, lawyer and honest man for
Congress. In Congress he would command
the respect of his compeers; he would be
called a careful and contentious worker,
without brilliancy, but with a steady pur-
pose to do right
Thus speaks the Enterprise about Mr..
Deal, but it qualities the praise by the as
sertion that the gentleman was a Copper
head during the war. Will the Enterprise
editor never find out that the wal is over,
and never quit Haunting the bloody shirt?
The gentleman who placed Daggett in NOM
nation before the Eureka Convention as
serted that during the war he (Daggett)
was fighting the rebels with letters of fire,
through the columns of the Enterprise.
That's about as near the enemy as the great
Of the pen and tripod wanted to get,
and having slain all the rebels with his
letters of fire he keeps on bowling over
their graves and s~creeching secessionist
and copperhead at every man who differs
with him in political opinion. Get thee to
a back seat, thou warrior of letters of fret

A scourSe Of yellow Jackets.

[From the Truckee Republican,
The mountains are full of yellow jackets
this Summer. They sting the horses and
cattle till the poor animals become furious sly
desperate. They gather about a person in
the woods, as would a swarm Of mosquitoes.
If you let them crawl over you and bite
pieces of flesh out Of your hands and neck
without attempting to brush them off, they
will not sting you. The average human
being, however, feels irresistibly inclined
to brush them off, and SO gets unmerci-
fully stung. Trout fishing has some days
been uncomfortable, because o myriad of
yellow jackets would cluster around the
fisherman, and for .eyery nibble received
from the t%rourthey would give him a dozen
bites. Woodsmen or railroad men who
have happened upon nests, have been stun8
so badly that in instances they were unable
to work for a day or two. The butchers are
compelled to feed these pretty flies with re-
fuse meat in a certain portion OF the shop,
in order to keep them from covering the
cutting blocks. There are hundreds and
thousands and millions Of them everywhere
in the mountains around Truckee. They
effectually kill off the flies. 1t is rare
sport TO watch their maneuvers when catch
ing flies. They swoop down upon their
victim as a hawk does upon its prey. Their
aim is generally unerring, and the fly Is
carried off to the yellow jackets nest. 1t
is said TO be an old and true saying among
backwoodsmen, that the more yellow
jackets there are, the harder will be the
winter. This being true, the coming win
ter will be about five thousand times more
severe than any Of its predecessors. Their
mometers win be entirely inadequate TO
mark the cold, and snowplow men viii not
lack employment.

PACIFIC A r.
LIF0ENE
SPECIAL TO THE EUREKA DAILY SENTINEL,
THE FRENCH BANK AFFAIR.
MR.. MAIZE ArpRoPRIATEs ss16,2s5.
The Whole Business Uneartfed.
san FRANCISCO, September %.

SAN FRANcIsco, September %.
The Bank Commissioners yesterday fin
ishedH their work of examining the ~accounts
of the French Bank, but have not got
their memoranda in such shape that they
can make a report before next Monday.
The exact loss by bad loans has not yet
been determined, but it has been ascer-
tanned that the amount of money taken
from the bank by the late Mr.. Maize ag-
gregates S3I6, 295. This sum represents
the cash taken from the bank, and the
operations by which he got possession Of
it date back to 1872. Mr.. Maize was i'm
plicit'y trusted by all connected with the
bank, and his word was law with his en-
ployes, who were very much attached to
him. He had everything in his hands,
and made the best use Of his opportunities.
In obtaining possession of the banks
funds, his usual course was to draw
so much money, and tell the proper
officer that he was to transfer it to France,
and gave some transaction. The amount
would be entered on one book, but Mr..
Maize would tell the clerk not to enter it
upon the ledger until he was told to do it.
The money would not be sent to France,
but was taken INTO Mr.. Mahe's personal
charge. The affairs We're managed so
adroitly that no suspicion was aroused, and
tlc way III Which, tbt WCiO ih'
rendered it extremely difficult for the Com
m%issioners to discover the defalcations.
They have, however, been unearthed, and
aggregate the sum named above.
Before daylight this morning there was a
slight rain, and it has been cloudy all day,
with the wind south, and during the after
noon a fine rain fell quite briskly. This
evening it is cloudy, with a prospect Of
more rain.
SACRAMENTO, Sept. %.
Secretary Of State Beck called the roll.
All were found present except A. Camp
bell, Jr., Daniel Inman, Jno. f.. Miller,
VIM. s. Moifatt. David S. Terry and
Hugh Walker. The members then came
forward by tours and took the following
oath: II do solemnly swear that will
support the Constitution of the United
States, and the State of California, and
that I will faithfully discharge the duties
of a Delegate to the Convention to frame
a new constitution for the State of Cali
fornia, according to the best Of my ability,
so help me God.
Gov. Irwin announced that he had re-
ceived the resignation Of Thomas Morris,
of San Francisco. The resignation was
laid on the table until after the organiza-
ton.
The Convention then adjourned until
Monday at III o'clock.
After the adjournment the Governor
announced a free consultation of non
partisan Republicans, Democrats or indie
pendents in the Assembly Chamber at 8
o'clock, and a caucus CT the Workingmen,
so-called, at the same houDin the Senate
Chamber.

Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1878-09-29

The Governor Of iowa has called for an
official opinion from the Attorney General,
and has also solicited the advice of some Of
the prominent lawyers of that State, con-
cerning the laws regulating elections. In
the Judgment of Secretary McCrary and
other legal authorities, there will have to
be two elections this year-one in October,
for State officers, and one in November for
Congressmen-unless the governor calls an
extra session Of the Legislature, and an act
y passed requiring that fall elections shall
take place in November. The State Attor-
ney General does not concur in this view
Of the law, it being his opinion that a
change Of the Constitution would be neces-
sary to authorize the proposed legislation,
and that, therefore, Iowa is exempt from
the operation Of the Federal law providing
for the election Of congressman in Novem-
Der. What the Governor will do about it
will probably be determined by the advice
he has asked from the other legal lights of
the State.

There is something in the way Of a can

him from his desk and set him a gong

to the neglect of these columns, 50 dear to
the constant reader. But there shall be q
substitute, in these emergencies. There
shall be no detrimcnt in matter or man

ance as the catastrophe Of the times var

timely if not quite necessary in order that
the campaigning of editor and newspaper
may be understood, and, If possible made
to jibe and square itself with the consist
encies OF the times. 1t is not every day
that one has a chance to show how greatly

people, clamoring for a Lieutenant Gov
