A capias was issued yesterday for the
arrest Of w. D. Myers, who is under
bond of $500 with Capt. j. Ii. Wright as
security for obtaining money under
false pretenses from j. w. Folkes.
Some time ago Mr.. Myers got into
trouble with the authorities in connec-
ton with Miss Lizzie Reed, who was
his bookkeeper, for unlawful conduct.
!. 1t is asserted that Myers for some
time has been disposing OF his effects
and obtaining cash for them, and yes.
terday he left the city, presumably for
Portsmouth, Ohio, whore Miss Reed is
stopping.
letter came to Myers Tuesday from
Lizzie Reed couched in very endearing
terms and acknowledging the receipt
of a check from Myers. This letter fell
into the hands of Mrs. Myers, who
opened it and read the contents.

endeavor to find Myers and bring him

Ir lis well

We rejoice to learn that the gold
bug clique 81 AFashoe county, con-
sisting Of the Office seeking remnants
Of the two old parties, are showing
signs OF repentance and that they are
becoming heartily ashamed Of the
course they have heretofore pursued
on the silver question. They have
resolved themselves into nos :
partizan political organization and
stand in for silver. This is well. It
is an abandonment OF the two old
parties and is an assurance OF their
true conversion to the silver cause.
1t shows that leopard may change
his spots and the lion his skin.
Brethren, let us pray for the con-
verts; that they may not weary in
we'll doing, run and not faint nor
fall down by the wayside in the
great race between the people and
the slaveocracy for supremacy.

Ex-Governor George G. Perkins
has received the appointment OF u.
S. senator from California to fill the
vacancy caused by Senator Stanford's
death. The new senator says he has
no settled views on the silver ques-
ton, and that he is one of a jury that
will not find verdict in regard to
questions of national policy until the
evidence all is in. The evidence is
now being given through public meet
ings and the public press. II the
senator weighs the evidence honestly
he cannot fail to be convert to the
silver cause.

BOYCOTT OUR LIBELLERS.

Nevada is state ridiculed in the
East on account of her pretensions to
her rights as state. New York
brags on one of ner dirty wards as
having more population than the
whole of Nevada and as being more
entitled to statehood. While this
may be true in the goldbug sense,
there are more senses than are
dreamed OF by the average goldbug.
Nevada was admitted to the union of
states at a critical period of the war
and under special statute by con-
gress authorizing her admission. The
area of Nevada is greater than that of
New York. OF her precious minerals
she has yielded more to the govern
ment than any other territory or
state. She prepared the way for the
government to resume specie pay
ment. President Lincoln appreciated
this fact, and welcomed Senators
Stewart and Nye on their advent into
the senate as coming from a mineral
producing state. Lincoln saw the
great Indebtedness which was over
whelming the people, and expressed
his welcome at Nevada's admission to
the union.
1t is altogether probable that his
tory will place Abraham. Lincoln in
II higher niche than it will John
Sherman and the other demonetizers
of silver, who have grown wealthy at
the expense of the American people.
But once restore the coinage of the
precious metals to the standard
where both the political platforms of
last year promised it should be-and
that was to the equal coinage and use
of both-and Nevada will shine forth
again to the world in her old time
splendor and glory. There is more
hidden gold and silver in Nevada Is
mountains than in all the other
states and territories of the union
The goldbugs do not know that the
two metals are found in the same
lodes, in almost equal quantities
They do not know that the Comstock
has yielded gold and silver in per
centages Of 45 per cent. gold to 55 pei
cent. silver to an amount OF 800 900,
600 to the world. They do not know
that their cursing and depreciatine
the price Of silver has closed The
mines Of the West until the produc
ton of gold will be insufficient fol
the arts. In fact, there is not gold
bug organ in the East, from Harper
Weekly, Frank Leslie's Illustrated, the
New York Times, the World, the
Tripuae, ct id omne genus, that opens
its columns on the silver question
that does not put its cloven hoof il
it.
