ference exists to-day. Grant has
filed an honored the position of
President of the United States during
a term of eight years. Since then he
has been honored above all men by
all the civilized nations of the world,
and during the last year in the histo-
ry of our country, has any man ever
been so enthusiastically received or
so highly honored by the American
peaple2
The report goes on further to state
"that Hancock will not probably
make any answer to General Grants
averments." "That he fHancock)
cannot descend to Grants level" is
evidently a mis- quotation. 1t should
read, +" He (Hancock) cannot ascend
to Grants level" and the next QUO
tation, "He must not lock horns
with Grant" should read, "He can
not lock horns with Grant. The
last part of the report settles the
whole business: Hancock's present
condition, moreover, as the candidate
of the Democratic party for Presi-
pent should restrain him, and
probably will, from bringing himself
to the plane o. Grant" There is no
doubt about the truth of this. His
position as the candidate Of the
Democratic party, seeking the votes
OF all the membrrs of that party, will
prevent him from ever bringing him
self to the plane Of Grant, and on
the Cd day of next November he will
find that the American people may
remember that he was an honored
soldier in the ranks of the army, bat
Ting for the Union and the very
life of our natl on; but they also will
not forget that he has now officia-
ted with those who we're then our
country's enemies to satisfy his own
inordinate ambitions.
There is no con- parison between
Grant and Hancock. Hancock is II
martinez in shoulder straps with a
bee in his bonnet. Grant is man
honored by all, and in the coming
November the American Nation will
have settled the question between
them. His weak evasion of the
charges is almost convincing proof
that they are true at least in sub
stance.

OUR COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

At the next election the citizens
and tax payers of Lyon county will
be called upon to elect two County
Con. 20 succeed j. G. Nc

Der tina, it is only a few years since
the Indebtedness of the county
amounted to about $4,000. 1t has
been reduced to about $4,000. a
large portion of this reduction has
been brought about during the term
of the gentlemen above named. The
financial prosperity of the county de-
ponds almost entirely upon proper
administration of its affairs by the
Commissioners, and for that reason
the people should be very careful
that they select the right men for
those positions.
There is to he u Ghange in mum
Der of county Offices, new men will
be elected, anmunder the law which
goes into effect on the 1st of jam
uary, 1881, all county officers sala-
ries are fixed. Such radical change
a radical change will have tenden-
cy to complicate the business of the
county, and it is necessary that
good pilot be placed at the helm.
James r. Shaw, the present in
cum bent, who has filled the position
for number of years, is candidate
on the Republican ticket for re- cleo
ton. He has proved himself a good
servant Of the people. He has ca
pacity and experience, and his ad-
ministration of the county's affairs
in past years has gained him the re-
spect of all parties. The people of
Lyon county can not do better than
keep him where he is.
HI. T. Scheel, the Republican
candidate for the short term, will
lend helping hand in running the
affairs of the county, as he does his
own, successfully. Elect him also.

A VERY WEAK DEFENSE.

A dispatch has been published
which purports to come from New
York headed "GeEeral Grant an
swered," which states in substance
that the reason why Hancock treated
Grant with GOODNESS was that Han
cocks action in louisiana might
be disadvantageous 20 the Repubh.
can party and prevent Grants nomi-
nation for President; and further,
: the report says, "Hancock under
stood very clearly that Grant was
making everything subsequent to his
inordinate ambition, and therefore
treated Grant colby" The whole
thing is ridiculous on the face, and
can only serve TO cause smile on
the face of every sensible man, be he
Republican or Democrat, in the
country.
There vas great difference in the
relatiye positions of Grant and Han
cock at that time. and the same diff
