Mr.. Lindley C. Branson, editor
nd publisher of the Tonopah Sun,
las seen fit to attack me, and Incl
entally the grand jury over my
houlders, in his paper of Deem
per 10th, in the following language:
The county commissioners, the
rand jury and Key Pittman are

way they are trifiing with the peo-
Die over the Nye and Ormsby Coun-

treatment.
''Mr Pittman is attorney for the
: First National bank of San Fran
cisco and as such is atteading to
The collection of all its hypothecat-
ed notes from the Nye and Ormsby. )"
AS to the grand jury, the Sun
says:
I'm the second place, the Sun
censures the grand jury for not
showing up this situation. This pa

acted in part as legal adviser for
the grand jury, but that is no ex-

the case, or whether he is actuated
by malice If Mr.. Branson sincerely
believes such facts to be true, he
has the constitutional right of ever!
American citizen to criticize the act'
of those entrusted with a publ,
duty.
If, on the contrary, Mr.. Bransol
knows the construction put upol
my employment to be false, as it is
and has published such attacl
through hatred or malice or fror
other Interior motives, he is dis
grace to American citizenship,
dishonor to the profession he fol
