EULO GIZED.
A Just Measure of Praise Bestowed
Oh Ii Retiring warden.

Oh the Retiring warden.
Hon. W. W. Hobart, Senator from
Eureka, placed Frank Bell in nomination
for Warden Of the Nevade State Prison in
a brief, well-timed address, and concluded
his remarks with the following just and
happy eulogy upon the retiring Warden,
William Garrard:
"But while I am thus welcoming the
coming, let me at the same time appro-
priately speed the parting guest. Two
years ago William Garrard was chosen by
the Legislature to succeed Gen. O. @. Bat
terman, as Warden. For four years Gen.
Battermans administration of the Prison
was acknowledged by all to have been hon
est, humane and business-like. The mex
orable logic of political events displaced
him from the position he had filled 80
creditably, and nov in turn for that rea-
son, and for that reason only, Mr.. Gar
rard meets the same fate. Under his con-
troll no scandal of any kind concerning
the Prison, or its management. have been
floating through the State. Honesty, hu-
mainly, a high order Of business ability
and strict economy must BIO accorded by
all to Mr.. Garrard's administration. In
his retirement the State loses the services
of one of the best, if not the very best,
officers that it has yet called to administer
its Prison affairs. Mr.. President, 1 am
enc Of those who believe in giving honor
where honor is justly due, and in giving
this merited need of praise to the retiring
Warden, I am happy to say that I am but
voicing the opinion of the majority party
on this floor. As the country is as yet
only in the inoipient stages of civil service
reform, and Mr.. Garrard has been obliged
to yield to that sound old Jaoksonian DEM
ocratio doctrine, that to the viotors be-
long the spoiis,' the State Of Nevada is to
be congratulated that it has secured for his
successor such q man as Frank Bell"

A lively exchange Of sarcasm followed
between Hardin and Grey.

that the people wero waiting anxiously for

The following special dispatch to the
SENTINEL was received last night:
CARSON, Feb. 8, 1883.
SENTINEL: In the contested election case
OF Stinson vs.. Sweeney the Court rendered
its opinion to-day, affirming the Judgment
of the District Court at Eureka, being in
Sweeney's favor.
Sheriff Sweeney's very many friends in
Eureka County will congratulate him that
the last armed foe between him and the
quiet possession of the Sheriff's office has
expired. He has had a rough time of it
all the way through. Starting out for the
office in a county which had never allowed
q Democrat the exalted honor of warming
the Sheriff's chair, and in which a majority
of from $50 to 800 Republican votes was
claimed by his political opponents, he
took the bull by the horns; nor did he let
that animal go until he had got the best of
him. The votes showed Sweeney to be
the first live Democratic Sheriff that
the people had chosen for Eureka. Then
the defeated candidate called for a recount.
He got it and found himself overheard by
a few votes-as disastrous as though they
had been 500. And still Sweeney was not
allowed to have his own. The election
was contested. 1t was claimed that some
informalities occurred in one or two dis
tricts. The case was heard. 1t was shown
that no fraud had been perpetrated, in
fact, none, we believe, was alleged. II was
shown that nobody was deprived of his
vote or interfered with at tho polls; that
the voting was perfectly square and honest
every place, and that nothing had occurred
to vitiate the election or the count. This
was in the District Court. But that liti-
gious spirit which rests only with seeing
the bitter technical end of everything
must try the Supreme Court. In this
court of last resort the judgment Of the
court below has been sustained. 1t is
right and just. The contestant had the
right to pursue the case as long as the law
allowed, but it has been q "rough' case
for Sweeney. Having had to make so
many fights for the Office he has spent q
good deal morelmoney than he will ever
get out of it. And his occupancy of the
Office has been SO precarious up to the
present that it would not be difficult for
him to dream for several nights yet that
he may ultimately lose his prize.

A GOLD PLOW.
An Invention to Save the Gold in
Black Sand.

AN W bh1S ~OhNA III
Black Sand.
The futile efforts which haye been prose-
cuted for many years for the extraction of
gold from the ocean sands have happily
met with what is claimed to be a success
full issue in a recent invention of W. H.
Leininger of Salinas, Oregon. Few are ig-
norant of the fact that wherever black
sand is found upon the ocean beach, gold,
in minute particles, exists in paying guam
titles, proportional to the method in
vogue and the appliances in use for the
purpose of extracting it. Various plans
have been adopted for working these au-
~riferous sands, but none have proved en-
tirely successful, owing to various causes.
In the machine invented by Mr.. Leinin-
ger, the San Francisco Daily Exchange as
serts, that the perfection of mechanism for
this purpose has been reached. This is
simply a pillow and an amalgamator COM
bined, which, in the practical tests already
made, has proved itself thoroughly adapt
ed to the use for which it is intended. An
inspection of this appliance will convince
any one versed in gold mining of its utility
and value. 1t is On exhibition at the Cali
fornia street entrance to the Merchants
Exchange building, where all interested in
the subject will be kindly received and the
system explained by Mr.. Leininger or Mr..
2. B. Fox.

a dozen quail a day the year round-the

popular delusion is that in ancient times

feast on quail for that length Of time.
