The settlement of a kibeT Case

made in these columns Of the case
of G.. J. Reek VS. the Enterprise
Publishing Company having been
terminated In the District Court in
Virginia City in an agreed Judge
ment in Mr.. Reek favor for 81.
This, of course. is an admission on
the part of the Enterprise that its
articles against him were of a
libelous character. In the settle
ment, we understand each party
paid his own costs. We understand
also from the best of authority
that there was an outside compro-
mise in financial matters concern
ing the case, by which the defend
ant paid Mr.. Reek a considerable

which we are not at liberty to state
The conclusions of this matter was
upon entirely amicablc terms, and

SWEEYY'S MISTAK e
Els Attempt to sow Whes with
"a VhrashinE Machine


A few days ago a large .,.Cor
mack thrasher reached thi fol
John Sweepy, the brash young
rancher who experiments with the
soil, couple of miles Northeast OF
this city.
Yesterday the machine was
started up with four horses, and all
day long was seen cavorting over
the grounds.
The antics Of the machine at
tracted the attention of the neigh
bors, and soon a large crowd of
men from the adjoining ranches
was on the spot
1t was indeed an interesting
sight. Dodd, the jockey. was
seated in front Of the machine,
driving the horses, and Farmer
Sweeny, Of the State Board Of A grl-
culture, was Oh top trying to keep
his legs. while he poured the wheat
down a hole In the machine.
His idea was that you poured
the grain in at the top, and it was
sown broadcast as it was whisked
out of fly wheel in the rear.
Say, Dodd, don't drive the blast
cd team so fast. Do you think this
is nile heat
You tend to your wheat, you
blasted fool. | know what I'm
about. You let me handle the
ribbons, and you SOW the grain"
Say. Dedd, where does this
blasted grain go TO when it goes
down the hole? Don't see any of
it behind US.
Guess it goes into the ground,
John; that's the idea If it all
laid top Of ground how in thunder
DO you spose it would grow? Steady
there, Dolly"
Finally Sweeny crawled down in
side Of the machine to see where
The grain went to, and found it all
here, just where he had poured it.
Then he poured 1t down another
lole and it was scattered about
beautifully as the machine jolted
llong the ground, and he called out
n great glee:
Now I've stuck the combina-
ION, Dodd. 1t scatters beauti-
'ully."
Presently the ranchers who had
'ome to see the fun took the young
armer down from the machine and
ed him away TO L quiet place,
where they could talk the matter
yer with him and put some ice on
lis head.

4 FRIEND OF JEFF DAVIS
He shows HIS Dirty Hand and
Mind to Custer Post

Not long ago Custer Post of this
city passed series Of resolutions
relative to the reasonable speeches
of Jeff Davis.
These resolutions contained a
well-timed and well-worded rebuke
to Davis, and were published and
approved by nearly every paper on
this Coast.
Yesterday the Custer Post re
ceived the following postal card,
dated San Francisco:
CUSTER Posi-, g. A. r., Grand

members cared for such childish
driyel, requested its publication
The card simply shows exactly the
style of men who are now clinging
to JEFF Davis. and the necessity of
the resolutions.

a knave or an idiot, but which Of

In Nevada State believe in home

Home trade, including printing, is
the thing. Merchants expecting
home trade should have their print
ing done at home. In the case of
the pamphlet the Nevada papers
agreed that since the pamphlet had
been printed in San Francisco, the
papers there should do the review
ing, But another pamphlet was
printed at the Reno Gazette office
on the Chinese question, and sent
out, and now it is getting proper
praise. Tho Nevada papers say of
the pamphlet:
1t is an exhaustive an able docu-
ment and handles the entire ques-

and strong on the anti-Chinese
proposition and gives Nevada the |

The chances are about equal between
Davis and Montooth. The Pittsburger
is new man, strongly backed by the
ring. Davis was ON the ticket with
Beaver and fell with him in the battle
of 1882.
For Auditor General the candidates
are Col. Thomas McCamant,t the present
deputy in the office; Col. A. Wilson
Norris and Col. Thomas C. Crimson.
Norris has pooled issues with Montooth
and the ring expects TO pull both of
them through. McCamant is running
on the civil service promotion racket.
He is strong man and seems to have
the support of the people outside of the
ring.
For Secretary of internal Affairs there
are various candidates. John NJ. Greer,
who was defeated in 1882, is making a
vigorous effort to meet the same result
again; but this being the tail of the
ticket, the place will be used as a sort of
consolidation Offering and given to some
interest disappointed in the other NOM
nations.
Recently an active and vigorous move
ment has sprung up on the Democratic
side in favor of Charles r. Buckalew as
the Democratic candidates for Cover
nor. The nti-discrimination interests
seem to have centred on him as the can
didate. The Constitution of 1873 was
adopted by the people by a majority of
100000, Buckalew is pointed TO as the
father of that instrument. His ocl-
leagues in the body were eminent men,
and included the late Judges Black and
Meredith. Franklin B. Gowen, Geo. NJ.
Dallas, EX-Gov. IIoYt, and others. But
the work seemed more to the taste of
Buckalew. and he not only led the de-
bates but impressed himself in the work
more than the others. Now il is said
that there will be sort of Constitution.
al Convention party organized to help
him into the office Of Governor, in the
hope that the neglected features of the
instrument with respect to corporate
abuses may be infused with new life and
enforced. EX-Gov. Hoyt is said to be
one of the leading spirits in this move
ment. The plan, as outlined by one of
the foremost agents in it, is to hold an
Independent Republican Convention
two weeks before the meeting of the
Democratic Convention. To this meet
Ing the leading Independent Republi-
cans, including Charles S. Wolfe, who
led the revolt against Bailey for State
Treasurer in 1881; John Stewart, who
ran as an Independent candidate for
Governor in 1882, and others of that
stripe, will be invited. All the surviv-
ing members of the Constitutional Con-
vention will also be asked TO participate,
and the result of their deliberations will
be the nomination of Buckalew. 1t is
confidently believed that the Democrat
ic State Convention which meets in Au-
gust will accept the views of the Inde.
pendent Convention, and endorse its
candidates, whom, it is promised, will
all he Democrats. The movement has
progressed so far that canvassers in its
interest are already at work all over the
State, and they seem to be making sub
stantial progress in the work.
