Collected Money With a Gun.

Eddie Rube young Piute buck, while
charged with Topaz fre-water, entered
the Hickey store at Topaz the other day,
when A. E. Bird the clerk found it nec-
essary to give him gentle hint that he
was not wanted there. He used broom
stick and left cut over the young braves
eye. He had doctor sew up the Gu
with four or five stitches for $3.50, and
then returned to the store, and pointing
a gun at Bird, demanded $3.50 or he
would shoot. The money was paid, and
now all the Indians will boycott the
Rickey store, and trade with Todkil's at
Coleville.

What Stephen M. White Says OF
Senator Stewart.
Los Angles, Cal, Aug. 25, l89

Los Angles, Cal, Aug. 25, 1S96
REINHoLD SADLER.
Governor of Nevada
Dear Sir Misunderstanding that Sen
ator Stewart is candidate for re-elect-
ion, and having heard from my Secretary,
who is now in Nevada, that some ques-
ion has been raised concerning the pro-
priety of his reelection, / am glad %
testify to his uniform devotion to the sill
yer cause He is the silver man par ex-
cellance of the day. His elimination
from official life would be hailed by gold
bugs everywhere as paramount triumph
and would do more to destroy honest
Government and to make an honest mon
etary system impossible than all other
causes combined.
Stewart is the nestor of bimetallism as
FAR as modern matters go. Nevada
ought to return him without regard to
party. This is my candid judgement and
[ do not wish to conceal my views.
Yours truly,
STEPHEN M. WHITE.

Douglas FaVOriteS.
chatty Let ter From a Local Poll
tician.

To the Editor of the RECORD.
I have been an interested reader of
Pardessu's letters, and have been inform
ed on State and Ormsby county politics
through them better than I could have
been by any other meane. Douglas poll
tics have not received as much attention
in your columns as consider it is en-
titled to, and therefore thought l would
let you know about how things are going
nere. The suggestion OF Hank Martin
TOR Governor is alright, but some skeptic
has started a canard thak this is but a
mere game to get him out Of the Senator
ial fight, and give Springmeyer chance
win that place on Republican nom
il alton. Be that al it mAy your sincerity
does not seem to be questioned, and were
it earlier in the fight " might win.
Speculation is rife as to what the Silver
party Convention will do. and hear that
a slate is being fixed up here that will
really astonish the county Candidates
as a whole. It is hinted that Jack
Raycraft would take the nomination for
Sheriff, while Bill Mccormack is sup
posed to be the natural nominee of the
party leaders. John Brockliss will
probably 90 before the people as an inde-
pendent candidate for Sheriff.
The long and earnest conferen-
ces with a certain gentleman well
known in Douglas county politics, but
who is this year supposed to be out of
politics would lead one to think that
slate is now being arranged which will
give the East Fork District the lions
share Of the pudding this year. The dis
trict Judgeship is the main battle to be
fought and if IS per cent Of voters of the
county mean what they say, our little
Mack will be dreadfully slaughtered at
the polls. Last election all kinds OF
trades and combines were effected and
Silver candidates received only half the
votes at the poles, they received at the
n ,minating convention, which goes to
show that party lines are not so closely
drawn.
A certain news paper proprietor from
Douglas was in Carson recently. and was
asked why be abused Stewart in his col
umns, only under the nom de plume of
his regular correspondent, and he an
swered. II have to do that or Loose my
correspondent" That seems to me to be
q very good reason, but one that will
carry but very little weight with the peo-
pie.
I understand from reliable sources
that E. G. Nagle is a candidate for re-
election, and that P. N. Packard, and
Merrill Turner propose to jostle him.
Now it would seem to man with glass
eye that Packard is the coming man, and
that Nagle will be satisfied to go to the
Assembly, where he will have chance
to make speeches, which will give that
able and ambitious young man greater
chances to climb the ladder to fame and
fortune. Merrill Turner might have the
Recordership for the asking.
l am candidate for Office myself this
year and therefore say but very little
about County Treasurer only this. Do
YOU think Noah Blossom would accept
another term of service for the dear peo-
pie? Thanking you in advance for the
space you have given me, and congratu-
lating you on the great hit the RECORD
has made, sign myself
Yours truly,

OVER in Monmouth county a farmer
became tired of paying toll on turnpike,
and refused to continue doing so. When
the gate was closed on him, he used an
axe and chopped his way through, for
which act he will answer in the courts.
His objection seemed to lie in the fact that
his constant use of the road entitled him
to ride free. 1t 10 hardly likely the courts
will sustain him. The turnpikes in this
state have legal existence, having been
organized under laws governing the sub
ject, and while there is no doubt they are
growing to be very unpopular, those who
use them must pay toll and not use mob
violence to escape what they may consider
an imposition. There is no doubt that it
does seem unjust to compel traveller to
pay-even though it be a few cents-to
travel over a road when the free country
highways leading from the pay road are in
much better condition than it is. There
have been times this winter when the tax
ing of toll on some of our turnpikes has
been little better than extortion. Turn
pixies have had their day.
