When we published an article couple
of weeks ago, in answer to Bro. York's
article tBosh;p we had no idea that the
fiery tempered editor ofthe Avalanche
would come back at us with personal
and scurrilous abuse. We could per-
haps, repay in kind and this week could
have published letter from one style.

Dewey is Right.

During the recent election campaign
the impression improperly prevailed in
Owyhee and elsewhere that Senator
Shoup, who was favorite with the
people of this county would not again
be candidate for the position be then
occupied. How that impression was
formed it is net our purpose to discuss,
further than to say it originated with
interested parties who had assured the
| voters it was correct. 1t was industri-
ously circulated, and under it the re-
publican voters were induced to maxi
Sweet their choice. With this under
standing many votes were made for the
republican Senator and Representative
and both were elected. Both of them,
under th5 circumstances, with Shoup
out Of the race, were implicitly pledged
to support Sweet. But, before the Leg
islature convened, Mr.. Shoup announced
that he was in the race, and in spite of
the efforts of Messrs: Dubois and Sweet
to prove that he was acting in bad faith
proved eonclusively that their efforts to
read him out were based upon misrep-
resentations which, if passively sub
mitted to, would have put him in a
false light and hence he decided to
stand by his right to become candi-
date. AS soon as this was fully under
stood in Owyhee, there was Revision
of feeling against Sweet and in favor of
Shoup. In Difference TO this sentiment
and with an honorable desire to act in
accordance with the wishes of the re-
publicans of this county, Senator Dewey
began to ask bis constituents for their
preferences as to the two candidates.
Finding the preponderence of senti-
ment greatly in favor of Mr.. Shoup,
Senator Dewey very properly, has deci-
ded to cast his vote in favor of that gen.
tleman and his action is being endorsed
by the great majority of the people of
Owyhee. Indeed, if he had done 9TH
erwise he would have been very severe
ly reprimanded by the majority of the
republicans in the county.
Now comes the Avalanche with IL
rade of abuse against Mr.. Dewey for do
ing what was manifestly his duty to
his constituents. Never mind that, Mr..
Dewey, keep right on courageously do
ing what is right and your constituents
will stand by you.
We cannot censure Mr.. Bennett very
severely for not following your exam
pie, be being comparative stranger to
the sentiments of the people here, and,
like the Avalanche publisher, can be
excused for getting off wrong on the
question. When they have either of |
them been in these mountains as long
as you have Mr.. Dewey, we may ex-
pect better things of them.

This weeks Avalanche contains a
very interesting letter written by Mar
Gus White, giving some valuable figures
and statements respecting the mineral
deposits of Flint, Boulder and South
Mountain. That is the kind of matter
which makes good paper in mining
district 1t is much better than the
kind of stuff pervading both the NUGGET
and Avalanche this week. Bro. York,
suppose we drop the other kind before
we both make our readers tired.

The Red Lodge, Montana, New Idea,
has now for some four weeks been pub
lished by Shelby Eli billiard who wrote
up the sDeLamar Paradoxical Magis-

in'the first number of that paper pub
lished under his management. That
effort seemingly exhausted the brain of
the fantastic Shelby Eli, for we have
carefully scanned the pages of his paper
every week since expecting to see more
of his mental pyrotichuics without find
ing anything in it that could not have
emensted from an idiot asylum, Was
it dose of hop which produced that

We hope our Silver City correspond
ent, Rara Avis, will excuse us for not
publishing his letter concerning that
tin cup prize. While the letter con-
tains passages in it which our friend
Bunk Dodson would call 'mighty inter-

we think unjust, and it is the rule of
this paper never to permit its columns
to be used for such purposes.

Brother York OF the Avalanche, this
week, published beautiful picture
which is a splendid counterfeit of the
classic features of the NUeaEr editor,
barring the nose. Evidently the re-
TOUGHER of the photograph used had for
gotten that the feature most adjoining
our benevolent face is not Roman, but
decidedly Grecian. We abhor the me-
cessisy Of criticising any artistic work
done by SO excellent an artist, but in a
matter touching US in so tender and
prominent part Of our anatomy, we
feel compelled to make protest.

A number of the young gentlemen
employees of the DeLamar Coin
short it is best to name them-Messrs.
Frank Plummer, Ted Bennett, Percy
Moleon, Rev. Argus, Bob PIN, Billy
Atkinson and John II. Scott, are trying
to learn the art of snow-shoing. They
each sent to SILVER City and got pair
of Prof. Truax's finest productions in
the way of ten-foot Norwegian shoes
and are spending their hours of recre-
alton trying to acquire proficiency in
this exciting sport. The person who
has wrestled with an old fashioned high
wheel bycicle and picked himself up
from all sorts of ludicrous tumbles is
better able than any one else to imag-
inc some of the falls these young men
have. If some of the little girls from
Silver City, who can ride snow-shoes
over Heidelberger's stone wall as grace
fully as Joe Brown can ride bucking
broncho, would come down here and
watch these young gentlemen taking
headers in snow bank, there would
be some merry laughs. 1t is said that
Ted Bennett is making the most pro-
gress toward proficiency, that Percy
Nelson can fall the oftenest and that
Rev. Argo can fail the furthest and
Billy Atkinson can dive the deepest in
to snow bank. Only one accident
has been reported up to date. Atkin-
son has a badly damaged thumb.

but the frame of mind the NUGGET edit

spleen is never in need of vent in an

better OF his logic; and certainly no.
