Assessor Dunno notified all the banks in
Storey county that he would expect a
statement Of sill moneys on deposit with
them. for the purpose Of completing the
assessment roll according to law. The
banks furnished the required statements
on July 9. and the Assessor and his depu-
ties at once made the proper levy and pro-

day John Doe Of Virginia was cited to APP
pear before Justice Hires because he said
he had drawn his money from the bank

developed that he had money in the bank
on the 9Th day Of July, and the Justice
held that he would have to pay the tax.

shooting at Austin.

The Reveille Of Monday gives tho follow.
ing account Of a shooting scrape that oc-
Cured there: 1t seems that on Saturday
evening John Gray known as Jim Gray
and VIM. J. Dryer had some angry words
about q paper Of tobacco and a rule. Yes
terdsy morning they met in q saloon on
the corner Of Main and Cedar streets, and
again renewed the discussion about the to-
bacco and rule. A few words passed be-
tween the two, when Dwyer commenced
firing at Gray. Seeing Gray armed and
preparing for a shot, Dryer ran ont of the
house and turned up Cedar street, in the
meantime Gray firing, but none of the
shots took effect. On reaching the corner
Of Court street Dwyer turned and again
fired at Gray, one Of the shots passing
through the middle of Gray's right thigh.
This ended the shooting. seven shots In
all, four from Gray's pistol and three from
Dryers. Dryer then ran to his home in
Upper Austin, but was shortly afterwards
arrested and lodged in the county jail.
After Gray's wound was dressed, he was
also locked up in the county bastile.
Gray's wound Is said to be painful. but moi
necessarily dangerous.

A letter from Butte City. Montana,
dated July 5. to the Phoebe Record, says
that although but q short while ago 1t was
pretty much all Eastern people in that
town, the Westerners are now pouring in
there. Real estate is at q high figure,
property on Main street ranging from $500
q foot and upwards. and pretty much the
same on the back streets. The saloons
are making money, and nearly all the bus
iness houses are doing well. There Is
great stir and hustle in erecting machinery
on the mines, and although the demand
for miners Is we'll supplied at present, az
ter the completion OF the erection OF ma

ployed In mining. Woodchoppers and
teamsters are now In demand, but the way

meal, such as you get in Phoebe for four
bits, costs here from 81 to 81 80. There
are three drug stores In Butte, three or
four hardware, four dry goods, six or seven
clothing, and q great many grocery stores,
and stores OF other descriptions. There Is
. telegraph ofioe here, but 1t appears to be
q private affair, and they do not care about
doing much outside business, so we are In
poor circumstances for getting early news
from the East and West, being compelled
to wait for the mail.

Idiotfe Critics.

There are q lot OF slavish nincompoops
identified with the Richmond in one shape
and another. who accuse the SENTINEL Of
publishing articles on the subject Of the
pending litigation calculated to influence
the Judgment OF the Court. The SENTINEL
does not know that 1t has any influence
with the Court, and it certainly does not
care whether it has or not. But Courts
and their proceedings and decisions are
quite within the scope Of legitimate jour
nalistic criticism, as much so as any other
public institution common TO our system.
We do not publish the SENTINEL exclusive
ly for the Court or bar Of this section. We
have an army Of readers, whose rights we
are bound to conserve. These readers,
our clients, have a right to be informed Of
all the issues Joined in the present litiga-
ton. We have given the issues fairly and
~truthfully as We understand them. We
have detailed the Albion theory, and
shown what was being set up in opposition
to it by the Richmond. In brief, we have
recorded our opinion as We had q right to
do. The SENTINEL has opinions on every
current thing from q lame lawsuit to 9
Presidential election. 1t will continue TO
express Its opinions quite as freely in the
future a. in the past.

Murder at Eel Dorado Canyon.

Murder at Ell Dorado Canyon,
The Phoebe Record Of the 10th says:
There has been another murder committed
down at Ell Dorado Canyon. On the
arrival OF the mail from that place Tues
day evening the District Attorney received
notice thata murder had been committed
at Ell Dorado Canyon, the Sheriff received
q warrant from the Justice Of the Peace Of
that place for the arrest OF one Benjamin
Piatt, charged with committing the MUIR
der, and the County Clerk received papers
and testimony taken at the inquest held
over the body Of the murdered man on
the 9th instant. 1t appears, from this
testimony, that on the Fourth OF July an
intoxicated man named Charles Bronson
and Benz. Piatt got into a row, and that
the latter beat the former, kicking him in
the stomach SO severely that he died at
daybreak on the morning Of the 9Th.
The testimony all goes to show that Piatt
was in the fault. Bronson was a native
Of Norway, aged 80 years. The Justice at
the Canyon, instead of deputizing some
one to arrest Piatt, as he should have
done, sends a warrant to the Sheriff way
up in Phoebe, q distance OF about 275
miles, to come down there and arrest Piatt.
The Justice knows full well that Piatt
never would nave waited there for the
Sheriff to hsve come and arrested him ;
also, that all the old settlers of the Canyon
are living with squaws, raising families of
half-breeds, and that it would be impossi-
Bile for an officer to get nearer than rs
miles to the Canyon without the Indians
t~elegraphing it and posting Piatt, and
both reds and whites would aid him In
every possible way. If the better class (?)
Of citizens are tired of this kind OF work,
why do they not arrest Piatt and bring
him to Phoebe? They would receive pay
for their trouble.

intention Of killing any one she thinks,
but merely to brighten them into immedi-

ALBION vs.. RICHMOND.
The Eleventh Day Of the Great Cas-
Able and Exhaustive Argument
of C<nuaaInr xVfuaa

Able and Exhaustive Argument
of Counselor Wines.
The Court convened yesterday at the
usual hour. Counselor Wines opened the
argument for the Albion. He spoke in all
about five hours, making one of the ablest
and most logical pleas that has hitherto
been presented in the case. Mr.. Wines is
one Of the most fluent takers at the Ne
vada bar, and has the faculty Of present
ing the dryest kind of a legal proposition
in a way to entertain and interest even
those not versed in the law. In yesterdays
effort he was especially ready and forcible.
Much Of his time was taken up in the read
ing Of authorities applicable to the contro-
verted points in the case, all OF which were
made as clear as daylight. 1t will hardly
be necessary to follow him in this report.
An intelligent synopsis would require
more space than W. can surrender.
Anything less than q very elaborate
statement would fall short Of doing the
speaker justice. 1t is enough to say that
the Albion's theory Of the question at is
sue were presented in a mastery n
Not q legal point was omitted or over

after another was equally complete and
equally unanswerable. Touching the
right Of possession OF the Uncle Sam, the
other side, he maintained, had failed sbso-
lutely to bring forward one ~scintilla Of
proof affecting that right in the remotest
degree. Rose was the prior locator, and
had performed every act required by the
law to hold good his claim and location.
His assessment work had been performed
year by year, and his boundaries had been
kept up and marked from time to time.
He had never been out OF possession OF the
ground for a day or an hour since he To-
Gated it in 1872. The patent was issued
out Of time and to the wrong party. A
regular and good patent on its face, it
was void as against Rose and others, be-
cause they were prior locators, in the
possession OF the land at the time, and
had not yet had their adverse claim adj
Indicated in ga Court of competent juris-
d%iction." But we had not intended to
repeat this much of Mr.. Wines very con-
elusive argument.
The attorneys for the Richmond will be
heard to-day. Senator Stewart closes for
the Albion. The Senator'S argument, no
doubt, will eclipse all the rest.
A decision is looked for either on Mon
day or Tuesday next.
The Court meets this morning at the
usual hour,

quite a heavy stream Of water at the head

1t comes from the roof, where we again
struck the porphyry. The dip and general
direction Of the formation is about the

There Is considerable excitement OF late,
says the Lyon County Times, over discov-

northeast OF Saltwater. Several small
lots Of ore have been sent to San Francis

ore is principally gold, and easily worked.
Machinery is now on the road, and in a

the District. Those who are interested are
mostly business men Of Saltwater and
Eureka, and they think il will be q perma-
nsnt and prosperous camp.
