BATTERMAN's ELECTION.


BATTERMAN's ELECTION.
Carson Cor. of Elko Independent.
There is much bad blood coming ont of
this election. The immediate result is hard
words, ordinations, etc. But it will affect
legitimate legislation.
THRILLING MISTAKE
From the Phoebe Record.
We were laboring under the impression
that Uncle Sam had resumed specie pay
ment on the first of January, and that
greenbacks were just the same as gold, but
we guess we are a little mistaken. A re-
turned visitor from the East Informed us
that on rendering greenbacks for fare on
the Eureka & Palisade Railroad they were
refused, without o discount was allowed to
be charged on them.
A o SUGGESTION.
From the Lyon County Times.
1t is to be hoped that, whenever the main
| question upon the passage of any railroad
bill is put to the Legislature, the ayes and
noes will be called for, and every member
thus compelled to place himself On record.
After the adjournment of the Legislature
the journals will be printed, and those who
have performed their sworn duty toward
the oppressed people of this State will be
known and receive the credit to which they
are entitled.
A WEAK ARGUMENT.
From the Reno Gazette.
The argument that the Williams bill
would be good enough for the Central Pa
cifie but not for the Virginia Il Truckee,
is rather weak. We can see no reason why
it costs more to move freight over the little
road than the big one.
A POINTED PARAGRAPH.
| From the Virginia Chronicle.
Assemblyman Taylor, of Nye county, has
introduced a bill in the Legislature to pro-
tect lawyers against dishonest clients.
Lasting distinction awaits the Assembly,
man who shall introduce and secure the
passage of a bill to protect clients against
dishonest lawyers.

THE New York Times intimates that a
project is on foot in financial circles, to
test the constitutionality of the law in re-
gard to re-issuing the legal tenders. Elui-
nent legal authorities generally agree tina {
the Supreme Court would Of necessity con-
denim the law, on the ground that to at
tempt the reissue of ~greenbacks that have
been paid once, would be to assert the
power of the Government to issue legal
tender notes in time of peace.

IT is said the passage Of the back pension
law, and the discovery hat it will take SO
much money out Of the Treasury, will put
an effectual quietus on the movement Of a
reduction of the tobacco tax. Many men,
bers Of Congress, who voted for the first
measure, are considerably Disguised to
find that they have virtually voted against
the last.

TaE Nebraska papers are awake to the
importance of that State doing something
to get a share of the gain of the great
tidal-wave of emigration 0 flowing
Westward. They find that Kansas gained
115,1s1 in population from March, 1871
to March, 1878, and in the niue months
since has gained 90, 900 to 100, 900 more, so
it is natural for them to think it would
pay to set up some sort of official ma
chinery to gather a portion of this increase
for Nebraska hereafter.

THE CIPHER TELEGnAms.

The Potter Committee has developed one
thing in its investigation of the cipher
kilograms, and that is, that the Postmaster
General will now have In opportunity of
making some substantial reforms in his
department, in the interest Of decency and
civil service reform. General Brady, who
confesses to rave broken open a parcel in
trusted to him for safe-keeping, from mo-
tives OF mere curiosity, to have tried to
deciphcr private kilograms, and to have in
yited his friends in to assist him in the in
decorous proceeding, is plainly not the
man to be Second Assistant Postmaster
General. And, indeed, if in addition,
these high officials, Representatives and
Senators would venture to deal with tele-
grams in the way confessed by them, leav-
ing them loosely accessible to curious or
interested partisans, there is no security
whatever as to what might be tempered
with. Sir James Graham, a British Post
master General, was driven out of Office
by the mere publication of the fact that lie
had opened a letter of a French Socialist
to a friend in London, and yet here we
find Senator's and Representatives and
semi-Cabinet officers all c~olleaguing to
appropriate, read, translate, publish and
handy about the private telegraphic cores
pondence of fifty or sixty persons, and
treating the matter as a good joke when
found out. 1t ought to be no joke to some
body.

dicial contest

The police judges should be prohibit,
ed by ordinance from taxing attorney fees
eXceptin cases where the attorney actually
enters an appearance As matters are now
managed the attorney may absent himself
from the city or the court room fora month
at time, and his $3.50 will be charged up
in each case the same as if he had devoted
days hard work in earning it. Such
rule is simply premium on neglect and
laziness. In times past it has often oc-
CURED that the attorney although in the
city, did not show himself in the police
court for whole week at stretch vet his
fees were taxed in every case disposed of.
Its probablytrue that not more than ten
per cent ctthc cost charged are ever collcc.
ted but that fact doesn't alter the case q
particle. The iattorney should be paid
his cost only when ne earns it. By such
q course industry will win its reward, and
lazincss its deserved rebuke.
