So far no one has claimed thereward
of $500 offered for the arrest of the man
who held up and robbed a tourist
named Street at Lake Tahoe. The only
description furnished by the California
authorities is that "the robber carried
a short-handled axe in one hand and a
revolver in the other; but the COURIER
hears a rumor that the mans name
is Smith. If so, he can easily be
identified. Any of our readers know
;. ing man of this name will confer a
favor if he will have the man arrested.
Governor Sadler was in Reno Mon
day. According to the Gazette, he
looked and acted confident. The Gov
ernor said that he had enough votes in
the Silver convention to give him the
nomination, and had no fear as to the
outcome. He also said that he con-
sidered the attacks being made upon
Secretary of State Howell as very I'M
just, and said that Howell could and
probably would publish the whole
Robinson estate story. This, the Gov
ernor said, would act as a boomerang
to Howell's traducers. Mr.. Howell is
a son-in-law of Mrs. Haines of Genoa
and the matter published in some of
the State papers concerning his can
didacy has been read with interest by
a number of Douglas county people.
w. Fl. Foley, late head carpenter for
the Smelter Co., now proposes to take
a whack at the smelter in the courts,
on account of a disagreement between
him and the Board of Directors as to
the amount of pay he was to receive
for his work. He went to Genoa yes
terday and filed mechanics lien on
the Company's plant. Mr.. Foley
claims that he entered into a contract
with the company to work for $5 a
day, and that many days he worked
over time. He says his bill against
the company is $703.25, and that of this
amount he has received 1878, leaving a
balance of $329.25. Members of the
Smelter Co. say Foley is foolish; that
he wants the earth, and is not satisfied
with reasonable pay for his services.
