DRURY ON HIS MUSCLE.
He Licks the City Editor or the
Monarch.

Wells Drury, who was so long a
newspaper writer on the Com
stock, is now holding down a fine
situation on the CAL.
He got it in this way. He has
for about two years been acting as
Court reporter Of the Examiner,
but one day Lawrence, the city
editor of that paper, had a dis
agreement with Drury, and after
a few moments devoted to argu-
ment, Drury smashed Lawrence
on the nose and lifted him over a
chair. Lawrence rose and renewed
the combat, but Drury. who is well
up in the sciences and arts, lodged
terrible right handler and deiiv-
cred another heavy invoice on the
city editors jaw.
The city editor of a daily paper
in San Francisco is always a large
man, who can lick a reporter if
necessary. Lawrence is an ath-
lete, and SO handy with his dukes
that he Is nick-named Handy
Lawrence by his English admir-
ers.
But Drury was up and at him
in large shape, getting to the wind
of his burly antagonist twice, and
then landing at the point of the
jaw he dropped his man.
Drury used to lick city editor
about every two or three months
in Virginia City, and understands
their weak points.
Lawrence was asked to resign,
and then elevated to the telegraph
room, and Drury next day re-
ceived note from Loring Picker
ing to come and work on the CaU,
where he now is.
Mr.. Pickering has city editor
who has never been licked, and he
wants Drury to go him a mess.

Mr.. ellis Letter.

In another column is a COM
munication from the facil pen of
Hon. Steve Gillis, a compositor in
the Virginia Enterprise office. It
is full of delicious humor, and
there are also some good sized
chunks Of solid philosophy thrown
in.
Mr.. Gillis is an old observer on
the political situation, and the de-
auctions he draws are inveritable.
His letter is full of reflection,
and although some Of it reflects
considerably on the editor of this
uninfiuential sheet, that makes no
difference SO long as it pleases our
numerous subscribers.
A man who can write as funny
9 letter as the one printed today,
ought to write oftener, and we
hope that Mr.. ellis will find time
at least once q week to forward
the APPEAL one of his produc-
tions.
When Mr.. Gillis wishes to hold
the editor of this sheet up to pub
lie ridicule, he is informed that
there are no strings on him.

A BIG SCHEME.
How Steve ellis Proposes to Re-
volutiOnize Politics in Nevada.

late contest for State Printer, LED
me into train of thought from
which / have evolved a scheme
which / am sure will make our
fortunes. Let me explain:
/ advocated Mackey's election
in this county. Result: 1876 ma
iority for Eckley. You advocated
Eckley's election in Ormsby
county. Result: 143 majority for
Mackey.
Neither one did his level best
or the results would have been
greater. II I had devoted more
time and money in opposing Eek
ley I might possibly have raised
his majority to 1000, and if you
had not deserted your post at the
critical moment and gone to San
Francisco there is no doubt in my
mind but that Ormsby would
have gone absolutely solid for
Mackey. Although, perhaps, it
was not altogether your fault. as
Deacon Parkinson Increased Eek
ley's vote by probably 200 by rush
ing to Mackey's defense.
Somehow or other I am inclined
to think that Eckley does not
fully appreciate my efforts in his
behalf. But, never mind, I forgive
him, and shall work just as hard
and in the same way for him
should he ever come up for cleo
ton again. There's nothing mean
about me.
Mackey should be very grateful
to you for your efforts in his be-
half, for you not only opposed
him, thereby making him the
most popular man in Ormsby
county, but actually forced him to
win that prize Holstein bull. He
will be lest to all sense OF graft
tude and decency if, when he gives
that barbecue, he does not pre-
sent you with the juciest cut ON
the animal.
Now for my grand scheme: If
you will join me we will become
the political bosses of Nevada
all the same as Buckley and Stow
Of California. The recent election
shows that IL we had combined
our strength" in favor OF one
man he would inevitably have
been defeated For instance, if
[ had electioneered for Eckley in
this county his majority of 4S6
would have been reversed, and
that, with the handsome majority |
you rolled up for Mackey in your
county by advocating EckleY, |
would have undoubtedly elected |
Mackey. In other words, if we
lad both advocated Eckley it
would have been good-by Joe; if
Iackey, good by viii. See? Don't
-ou catch on?
Our status as hoodoos is now

70 to the various candidates and
threaten them with our support.
hey will be only too glad to put
p big coin for US to electioneer
Or the "other fellow" Why,
am ''there's millions in it."
But, by-the-by, if you don't
bject, I should like to take into
le firm Joe Mccarthy and
'eacon Parkinson for the follow
lg reasons: Joe is a young man,
ut he is holy terror as a ward
orker. During the late canvass

ond Ward that's Joe's own ward
him, as he had things all elk
l.. I did SO, Joe evidently got
some very fine work as the
ard went for Eckley by 186 ma
rity. Oh, joss no SLOUGH as a
olitician. AS for the Deacon, he Z
lnvassed some here for Mackey,
Id, of course, every man he ask :
to vote against Eckley made a q
entail oath to copper Mackey. :
