Trouble in Cardnerville

For some time past a concerted move
has been made by the Italian Swiss
mixers in Carson valley to go on a
strike and have their wages raised to
$40 per month, or five more than the
prevailing price. There were several
hands, however, who would not lend
themselves to such plan, and as a
consequence bad blood arose between
the latter and the ambitious members
of the mixers trust. Monday morn
ing row TOOK place between Gense
Iomagni and Martin Belltrometti, an
employe on the Springmeyer ranch, in
which monkey wrenches and other
missiles were freely used. Tuesday
morning Belltrometti took the precau-
ton to take on his wagon, in his daily
trip to the creamery, friend named
Henri Biaggi. When near the cream
cry the couple was stopped and the
row Of the preceding day repeated,
with the result that Biaggi is lying in
serious condition, suffering from Sc
we're Commissions of the head and inter-
nal injuries, while Tomagni is nursing
a finger which had in the melee got
between two sharp teeth. Threats are
being freely made and it is thought
that the finale has not been reached

"Esneralda"

Last evening the Daley Dramatic Co.
presented the comedy drama "Esme-
ralda," and although the weather was un
settled it did not prevent big audience
from enjoying an evening Of excellent
dramatic work.
The play is one of the best yet pre-
scented and everyone in the cast played
the character in the best possible manner
Mr.. bailey again impressed the audience
with his excellent work. The light be-
fore he took the part of an open hearted
American and did it in Nat Goodwin
style, while last the character of the old
man could not be improved on. Mr..
DALEY and Miss Nannary prove an at
traction and if they ever visit here again
they are sure of q warm reception.
This afternoon special program fo1
the matinee performance will be given
and the ladies' and children are assured
an afternoon of pleasure.
This evening the company will give
their final performance and the pretty
play ARA Ma Pogue'' will be the at
traction and will undoubtedly meet
with big audience.

entlemen:-
We have just read an article pub
lished in the MORNING APPEAL of
Carson of April 18th, headed "Smooth
Work-How the Nevada Liquor Men
We're Touched off by Clever Califor-
mans, F." of which we suppose you have
already seen. This paper was sent to
us by Mr.. Thyes of Reno. This is a
matter that the mem bers Of orr organ
lzatiOn in your city and Reno should
take up at once. The editor of this
paper has, | judge from the tone of the
article. got his information from some
dlsgruntled saloon man who has re-
fused to join the organization. Nc.
| have no doubt that the saloon men of
ssour town are liberal supporters OF
this paper and | write you as one of
the auxiliary committee. / think you
the committee and call upon Mr..
Editor and give him to understand
that he is liable to have a libel suit on
his hands if he is not very careful.
| This organization is endorsed and sup
ported by the wholesale and retail ele-
ment throughout the territory in which
we are working and is a movement, as
has been stated to you to unite all the
Western States into an organization to
affiliate with the National organization
east of the Missouri River. Its aim and
objects are exactly what the bylaws say
and its work is one that will be of grea,
benefit to the saloon interests Of the
| Western States if properly supported
| Pie use explain to the editor that he is
wrong in the matter and ask him in
gentlemanIy manner to retract his val
famous article and think you can hav,
him do so without any further trouble
Please notify us at this office as soon a:
yuu can, what action has been taken an(
the results, and oblige,

COL. PEARRE RENoM1NATEp
BY Acclamation. The Claims of Garrett
Tor Slight Recognition Disregarded
as Usual.

Tuesday at Cumberland Hon.
George A. Pearre was renominated
for Congress from the Sixth Congress
sional District by acclamation. The
convention was well attended and
was quite enthusiastic.
Garrett county asked for some
slight recognition. She wanted Col.
A. g. Sturgiss named as Delegate to
the National Convention to be held
in Philadelphia. A combination of
votes of the counties in the eastern
end of the District which usually
give Democratic majorities made the
election of Col Sturgiss impossible
and those chosen as delegates were
ID. G. Winebrenner and Thomas G.
Noyes.
