BEN CARRICK.

The Enterprise comes back at US in
regard to an article about Ben Car
rick, and says it said nothing about
him except by insinuation. Now the
facts about Carrick's situation are
about as follows: lie does not own
a farm in Oregon or ia any other
State, so far as known. He was for
a time at Portland working at So per
day, but is now on ranch about
forty miles distant from that place.
The ranch is stocked to some extent
with cows and chickens and has some
fruit growing thereon. Carrick rents
the place for one half the proceeds
and one half the increase, and so
long as he is doing his best to support
himself and family in an honest way
and rake a start in the world, it
would seem to be bad time for in.
situations, at least so it appears to
many in Lyon county who still hold
Ben in high remembrance for many
kind deeds done by him in old times,
but who do not attempt to palliate the
crime for which he was punished by
Imprisonment in our State Prison for
nearly two years; he by the way be-
ing the only defaulter in public Office
ever punished in the State, so far as
we know, while he was by no means
the only Storey county official who
has proven recreant to his trust with
in the last four years, as the Enter
prise knows.
