A call has been issued for the reas-

on the 21st of this month. The call has
brought out a card from the presiden,
of the former convention, Mr.. C. Lear,
taking the ground that, the convention
having adjourned sine die, that body
cannot again be assembled. and that the
convention, if it meets, will not repre-.
sent the party. but Cameron. Another
stumbling block is the resolution adopt.
ed providing that hereafter delegates &c
conventions should be chosen by prima.
~ conventions open to all Republicans
and not be appointed by county com.
mittees. Mr.. Lear holds, therefore, and
rightfully, that good faith requires the
members of the new convention to be
selected under the new rule and propos
es, in order to settle the existing differ
ences in the party, that convention bt
called to meet in September composed
of delegates elected. as provided by tn,

The proposition is fair one and should
be accepted by the leaders on both side

A few days ago, General j. r. Chal-
mers, who was candidate for Congress
in Mississippi, sent congratulatory
dispatch to Ben. Butler, of Massachu-
sets, in which he said Fort Pillow
Chalmers and Beast Butler were both
in" 1t appears that his congratula-
tion were premature. A dispatch from
Jackson, Mississippi, says the Secretary
OF State canvassed the votes polled for
Manning and Chalmers, opposing candi-
dates for Congress, and decided in
Manning's favor, to whom the Governor
issued q certificate. Chalmers is de-
cidedly out of luck. politically. Two
years ago, he claimed to have been
elected to Congress, but his seat was
contested by John r. Lynch, Repub-
lican, who was awarded the seat.
Chalmers then became Republican,
and was a candidate for Congress at the
recent election. The certificate of elec-
ton has been given V. II. Manning, his
opponent, as stated, and there is not
the remotest chance OF his being given
the seat by Congress. As Democrat,
he was ousted by Congress last Sum.
mer, and, as Republican, he will be
kept out by the next Congress.

A LIBEL sUnr.

In the recent campaign j. e. Ander-
son, then editor of the Eureka Leader,
accused, in the columns of his journal,
George J. Reek, Republican nominee
for Superintendent of Schools in Eureka
county, of treachery to his party-in
this, that he supported A. Z. Kaye.
Democratic nominee for State Supern-
tendent of Public Instruction, and a
personal friend of his (Reek), against
j. G. Young, the Republican candidate
for the same office. Reek denied this
charge in card over his own name in
the Eureka Sentinel. Subsequently
Anderson and Reek met on the street
in Eureka, and exchanged shots with
each other. Anderson was mortally
wounded, and died of his wounds in
few days. Reek was examined before
a Justice Of the Peace, District Attor-
ney Davenport acting as counsel for
the prosecution. A number Of wit
nesses were examined under oath, and
at the close of the examination Reek
was discharged, it appearing from the
evidence that Anderson was the aggres-
sor in the fatal conflict, and that Reek
fired in self-defense. Reek, who had
been teaching in the public school at
Ruby Hill up to the time of the rem
.contre, was reinstated as teacher after
the examination, and is still employed
in that capacity. The Territorial En-
terprise denounced the examining mag
astrate in unmeasured terms, and ac-
.cused Reek of being a murderer. 1t is
now stated in the Eureka Sentinel and
IN the Associated Press dispatches that
Reek has engaged the law firm of
Baker & Wines, Of Eureka, to bring
suit against the Enterprise for libel
with damages fixed at So, 1000.
This suit will give the Enterprise the
opportunity, it appears to have been
seeking since the death of Anderson, to
prove it's assertions, and the result will
he looked forward to with much inter-
est. If the Enterprise can prove its
allegations, it will show that a MUIR
derer has been turned loose upon the
community by the action of Justice
of the Peace without protest by the
District Attorney, who is no less per-
sonage than w. H. Davenport, Attor-
ney General elect; but if it does not
prove the charge, it will probably, and
as it certainly ought to be, be mulcted
in damages to the amount of few
thousand dollars. This its proprietors,
Messrs. Sharon & Co., are amply able
to pay, while Reek, il innocent of the
crime of which he is accused by the
Enterprise, can not afford to be brand
ed as a murderer by one of the leading
newspapers of the State.

In the decision made in the case OF

son, which has been decided in favor OF

analogy to the celebrated Trepp case,

the reversal IS that the land in this
case wa what - known as .soffered

the Trepp case, when an unoffered sec-
