A LAUNDERING OFFICIAL.

TIE Enterprise still keeps up it's fire against
Mr.. Madrill, the newly appointed State
Printer, deneuncing him rs q blotch upon the
profession and 4 thoroughly incompetent man.
We know but little of Mr. Madrilrs COM
potency but have been surprised that the Elk
tsrprise, while protesting to have the interest
of tho State so much at heart, did not gather
sems facts regarding the incompetency Of the
present State Printer, Marshall Robinson,
who is considered by all printers whe have
ever inspected his work as BLACKSMITH" of
the worst sort. In spite of the fact that he
has reaped a princely income from his fraud.
ulent State printing contract, he has been too
close listed to secure good type to do the State
work. Although it was proposed to purchase
his Office for the State, an inspection Of tho
material showed that it was in Ne way adapt
ed to the uses proposed. The election law
published by Robinson would disgrace coun-
try newspaper Office. A typographical error
appears upon the first line of the title page,
and the work is sprinkied throughout with
evidences Of the mans lack of education in
matters Of ordinary punctuation and ignor-
"nce OF these niceties Of typographical art
which reveal the hand of the good printer. A
piece OF work he did for the Republican State
Csnvention-nn ordinary roll call--was dis
earded by che Committee s So badly mangled
that it could not be used, and Tom Tenants
manuscript copy adopted in its stead We
are under the impression that Mr.. Mad.
rjll's administration will work a very marked
change in the State Printing Office and COM
potency and economy succeed regime which
has been disgrace to the typographical art
and swind|e on the taxpayers of the State.

BRANDING TEE TRAITORS.

The last issue of the Eureka Leader contains
a call to the Republican Central Committee,
signed by w. w. Bishop, its Chairman. In
it these words occar: "The meeting is called
for the purpose of dismissing from the Com
mittee those political traitors who on the day
of election sold out to the Democracy or op
posed regular Republican nominees" The
Leaaer also contains a ringing editorial in
which the traitors are scored for the pe-Gdy
in style that leaves no doubt but that the
editor means business. Eureka should have
had over 800 majority for the Republican
ticket on election day, but in spite of this only
half this ticket was able to pull through.
Ormsby county came very near having i like
experience. We believe that the defeat
Of the Republican party in Nevada
will have a good effect upon it and open the
eyes of the rank and file to the fact that a lot
OF political manipulators who have debased
the party machinery to their own purposes
must be kicked out. Every county in
the Stats had parcel OF Sharen's manipula-
tors in the conventions whose first aim was to
saddle him upon the people in spite of the
honest aud indignant protest OF majority Of
the voters. These men should be spotted
throughout Nevada and never again be al
lowed to lift their voices in political council
This arch trailer has fed the State covered
| with every honest Republican S contempt and
followed by a howl of contumely which will
ring in his ears forever. Now that he has
been disposed of let his manipulators, follow
ers and private henchmen be treated like SO
many rats found in an honest farmers granery.
We have two years left before the next cleo
ton to repair the breaks made by mismanage-
ment and corruption, and we mistake the
temper of the Republicans ill Nevada if they
do not make effective changes in party leader
ship and management. The chronic office
seekers who consider their private schemes OF
more Importance than general victory must
be disposed Of with as little ceremony as pos
sible and their cheek and greed made dis
qualification for any further share Of party
favars. The policy of reconstruction must be
carried out in way that frauds, place hunt
ers and traitors will cease to influence party
organization and a clean sweep in the fall Of
1882 will crown every we'll directed and
honest effort. We hope to see the Eureka
Committee effect their work in such a man
ner that brand will be placed upon the fore
heads Of tho sack enslaved wretcnes who con-
sidered that their private pockets were of more
immediate consideration than their honor or
their party's success, and the APPEAL will
lend its aid whenever available in burning a
brand into the flesh Of every party traitor in
the State, that he may meyer again move un-
marked and unrecognized among his fellows.

Is TIE PARTY SICK OF THE SACK

We have been frequently asked of late why
we did not score the corrupt use of money in
dulsed in by Col Fair in Washoe, White Pine
and Eureka counties. We have taken the
pains to familiarizs ourselves with some of the
facts of the case and fully realize how the
voters in the counties mentioned were bought
up like cattle. As high as $50, $50 and $50
were paid for votes in some localities to elect a
Democratic Legislative ticket, tho henchmen
of Fair having orders to see Sharon's figures
if they made their appearance and go them
ten dollars better There was a tacit under
standing between the two men that Sharon
should not make sack fight, but Fair fear
ing treachery had his meney "placed' in every
county with instructions to crush his oppo
nent's if it showed itself. 1t did not show
itself but there were men shrewd enough to
see through the game and Fairs men were
made to believe tina. Sharon's men were dis
bursting celn and in that way they ripped the
Democratic sack open and got their share of
the coin. A good many Republicans have
asked the APPEAL to denounce this piece of
following reasons: The same men who are
anxious to see Fairs sack scored came to the
APPEAL Office two months ago and begged us
to let up OH Sharon, for they said, "If you
drive him out of the 6gh; we will have very
little money to conduct the campaign. We
don't care rap for him personally. but it will
De pretty hard for US to lose his moneyed in
huence' Their idea was that sack on their
side was legitimate and regular, but now the
idea of sack used on the other side is that it
is beastly instrument of corruption, which
should be scored and held up to contempt by
every decent newspaper. These men clamored
for sack fight, and we thank the line of cir
cumstances which led them to get enough OF
such contemplate conditions Of political war;
fare. We have tried to make the sack edious
to the party and could not have succeeded in
doing it efiectually had not COL Fair stepped
in and crammea the obnoxious thing down
their throats until they got their maws full Of
it. A child who insists on stealing sugar can
be cured of the habit by feeding it about
pound of the article inside Of half an hour.
No more sugar for that child. The voters of
Nevada have got about all Of the sack fights
they want, and we trust that tlas dirty meth
cd of controlling votes will ever afterwards be
made odious in Nevada. estates can be
saved without it.

to the very mild winter up there:
"Why, the orioles and bluebirds are
whistling in the Central park, and the
business men..who come in of mornings
over the Morris and Essex tell of the
bees humming about the car-windows.
Yellow spots have come out here and
there in Madison park, and the nurse
ny maids report them to be dandelions.
The season has taken on the spirit of
the age and grown light and trifiing.
There is no conviction of cold in it..
Not a cake of ice in the Hudson below

voir, is as blue and ripping and trans

bany, N. Y, and the advertisement says:
HE has upon his body 1000, 900 pune

savage. The poor man lost q drop of
blood and shed tear for every punct-
ure, and was the only one Of twenty
four who survived the operation. The
woman who did the tattooing worked
six hours day for ninety days before
the task was completed" A mathe-
matician of the Albany Express figures
as follows: 1.-THE woman must have
given him 81 punctures second. Then,
If he lost one drop of blood with every
puncture, he lost, estimating the usual
number of drops to a pint, and taking
a pint for pound, $3.50 pounds. Or to
put it differently, just $50 gallons of
blood, or a trifle over twenty barrels
during ninety days. Tears don't weigh
as much as blood, so punching the two
together the gentleman from Albania
must have lost about 81 tons of those
fluids within three months" Bar

The war in Maine is over. The Flu
sionists have subsidized under the COM
bined assaults of Gen. Chamberlain, the
Supreme Court, and the fear of losing
their per diem if they persevered in
their course. Last Saturday afternoon,
p. A. Sawyer, Fusionist Secretary OF
State, yielded, and, under protest, gave
up all the State property in his posses
sion. He delivered to the Republican
secretary the state seal, returns of votes
for governor, county officers, senators
and representatives, council records and
all the reports of the executive council
of 1879 relating to election returas.
Sawyer was unable to find the key OF
the safe. He says he received legal
advice to hold out in his position, but as
he was satisfied the sheriff had a war
rant for his arrest he did not choose to
make a martyr of himself, and has,
therefore, given up his claim to the of

The emancipation Of the slaves does
not appear to have had much effect in
diminishing the prejudice against color
in Virginia, or the antagonism between
the white and black races. A white
woman has just been severely whipped,
and her cot0red associate most barba.
rously lynched, in Franklin County OF
that State, for INCORPORATION.
: AT the same time in Shenandoah
County the prospect of a collision be-

Governor ofthe Saate requesting troops
to preserve the peace.

The New York penitentiaries are run
on the contract system-that is, the
cOnvicts are farmed out at so much per
day to contractors. They are taught
trades, and of course work at lower
wages that can be taken by decent men
outside of the walls, who have families
to support. The revival of trade has
stimulated every art and industry, and
it is stated that under the present press
ure of great demand, the convicts are
worked weekday and Sunday. Many
and loud are the complaints from the
legitimate tradesmen who seek to earn
an honest living, and no doubt before
the end is reached, the contract system
will have been done away with.

New Jersey, for the Southern States,

more than q majority. But should
Ohio go against the Democrats, New
