The management Of the Affairs Of the
Reservation in this county under charge
OF Agent How. has lately been the sub
jsct Of severe structures by portion Of
the press. and latterly by our Congress
man, G. w. Cassidy. O. @. Poxning.
who has been at Washington during the
past few weeks. recently returned to
Reno. and in his paper. the journal. Of
yesterday. speaks as follows touching
this matter:
"of the sixty seven or siIty-sight
Reservations in the United States, the
Duck Valley is tue only independent
one; by which We mean il is the only
n not controlled by the religious de-
nominations. Mr.. How is a Democrat
and in early times WAS a merchant OF st.
Louis. He was appointed Agent by
Secretary Scburz, also of Missouri.
He relied too much upon his clerk, who
forged his name, aud who has just been
sent to the State Prison for two years
for this forgery. by Judge Bigslov Of
Elko. Mr.. How has. We understand,
made good to the Government. every
dollar Of loss sustained by 1t, and as be
has heretofore borne AN honored name,
ho asked that he be reiustatsd until
Jnly ]. 1882. when his term expires. SO
that he could close up the affairs Of the
Reservation with honor to himself and
with as little loss as possible TO his
bondsmeR, said boudsmen being among
the wealthiest citizens Of st. Louis. He
has no desire to retain his position. He
wishes simply to settle everything sat
isfactorily to the Governm snt and retire
without q stain Of any kind. Secretary
Kirkwood refused. at first, 20 reinstate
him, but Sen tors Vest and Cockerell
OF Missouri. Senator Jones OF Nevada,
Gen. U. S. Grant. and other prominent
men, certified that Mr.. How was an
honest man. and permission was granted
him to return to Nevada and remedy
the wrongs that had been done. II
there is delay it is because the Winter
weather will not allow him to go to the
Reservation. and place things In shape.
We do not believe there is n dishonest
hair in his head, and We arc sure there
Is no possible show for the Government
to lose anything by him."
Every point of a local nature, is cor.
rsctly stated in the above. and there is
every reason to believe that sAch Of the
other clauses in the statement are
equally accurate. People hero who
have been cosnizant OF most Of tho
facts in the case have always held Mr..
How entirely Guiltless in the matter.
