LEG1SLATORS.


Something About whnt QuaIifica-
lions They Should Have.
The SENTINEL's leading article Of last
Saturday, with regard to the personnel of
the present Nevada Legislature, and with
special reference to tho delegation from
Eureka, has already been much discussed,
owing to the exceptions taken to it by
Assemblyman Muldoon in his question Of
privilege in the House and the criticisms
freely offered thereupon by several jour
nails at enmity with this paper, notably,
the Territorial Enterprise and the Reno
Gazette. These journals are not sufi-
GENTLY discreet in their malicious and
personal articles to cover up the motives
which actuate them to take part in a dis
cussion in which they have none but the
scavengers' interest. They both hinge
what they have to say in the matter on the
effect the utterances of the SENTINEL
will have upon the future political status
OF Hon. George W. Cassidy, and they seek
to make a record for him among his con-
s%tituency in this State out Of the opinions
expressed by the SENTINEL under its pres
Shg ududSculCAUs 1uCy Ahoui6S thSAh
selves in the silly and cowardly endeavor
to injure him during his absence from tho
State, by trying to make the public be-
lieve that he is responsible and is to be
held amenable for the expressions of this
paper, of which he is a part owner, while
he is at the Capital of the nation on official
duty, and has no more to do with shaping
the conduct or opinions of the SENTINEL
than if he were in Egypt. The response
bility for what anybody is pleased to con-
denim in the expressions or policy of this
paper rests altogether upon the shoulders
of one person, its present editor. What
ever he writes he writes deliberately. He
takes nothing back. This much he feels
it his right to say to the public-his
question of privilege" if you please.
THE FOUL DoLLARs A DAY.
The SENTINEL in its leading article of
the 10th did not assume the attitude
attributed to it by the Honorable Muldoon
and the newspaper scavengers who seek to
raise a hue and cry against this paper.
The SENTINEL has always been the friend
of the laboring man, and has advocated
his rights from its origin continuously,
day after day, up to the present. In fact
the very editorial over which there is such
a hullabaloo raised and SO much froth
wasted was itself written in the interests
Of the laborino masses suf ferinr oppression
of the hands of the insolent rich. whose
