A FairStatement of dudgey Caldwell and Sullivan’s Connection With the Le Du Case. . [San Juan Times'of Yesterday.) ~ Tn our last issue we made some strictures upon an article which appeared in the Spirit of the Times, severély criticizing the--action of Judge Sullivan while holding Court i an. this county, anid by implieation charging J udge John Caldwell with\dishonesty. In préparing our article we were led into some ‘errors in relation to the matter which for the sake of truth ‘we are bound to correct. ‘We stated that the action Judge Sullivan was called to adjudicaté upon was the foreclosure of a mortgage which had been execttted by a man named: Marr to Captain Downing, of Nevada, which had been assigned to.LeDu, and that Judge Caldwell was precluded from sitting on the case because he had furnished part ef-the money that.was loaned to Marr. Nothing could be further from the truth. The facts are simply as follows : J. W. Downing had loaned money to LeDuc which the lattér had secured by mortgage on property in Bloomfield township, this county. A portion of the property. thus mortgaged was claimed by. Marr, and.the action that was brought against Marr by LeDu was in the shapeff of ejectment. No suit was brought to foreclose the mortgage. Judge ever in the result of the suit,nor did he furnish: a dollar of the money that was loaned by Downing to LeDu. Allthat he did do in the matter was to write the mortgage executed by LeDu and wife to Downing and take their acknowledgment to it. Because he did that and had advised the parties that the sectirity was ample, he, like the honest, upright man that he is, refused to sit as Judge at the trial of the action. These are the facts as we learned them while at Nevada last. week. The reason why Judge Sullivan was called-to try said action is. to be found in the fact that a’ case was coming on to be tried, wherein Judge Caldwell had-once been interested as attorney for one of . the parties, which made it necessary for him to call another Judge to his seat. As animpression had gotout that he had furnished some of the money loaned to LeDu, he concluded to fix the trial of both actions so that both cases might be tried by the same Judge. Noi being able to obtain a Judge from acounty adjoining Nevada, he sent for Judge Sullivan who kindly consented to serve ;~and— out of these simple facts a mole-hill has been magnified into a mountain by the Spirit of the Times, and -a wrong impression left upon the minds of the people. We have known Judge John Caldwell for more than quarter of a century and we speak from the book when we say that a more ‘honest, conscientious gentleman never breathred God’s free air. He was an upright Judge in every sense of the word. Whatever errors he may have committed were erorrs of the head and not of the heart. The other action mentioned above was . entitled Beulow vs. Belden. Rivalry Amoung Hens. Two of City Trustee Abbott’s hens must have read the item we printed—the —other___day._-about W.F.

Anent our item published. on Thursday about the ‘row on “Howard Hill, ovr reporter saw James Hi. Bennallack, and he requested that we should publish his side of the story. which is to this effect: That the shaft that was filled .up and on which tlietrees were thrown "is “on the “Sebastopol ground and belongs to Bennallack, That thé Smith party took forcible possession of the shaftand that Bennallack tried by all peaceable means to persuade them to cease,work. James H. Bennalattack was made Smith had a hammer in his hand, and that in self defense Mr. Bennallack picked upa stick or club and used it. Young—Bennallack—says that on Thursday morning the Smith -party+ came on the ground, all of them being well armed, and took forcible possession of the shaft, that John L. Smith jumped upon the back of James Bennallack and began gouging him in the eye,and that during the struggle both parties fell, Smith happening to fall on the bottom. He further states that there was no biting done on the part of Bennallack. This is the sum and substance of the Bennallack side of the story as told us by Mr. Kitts and James H. Bennallack. As to which side _is right we will leave that to the court to. decide. .The parties appeared (Smith’s) through their attorney and pleaded not guilty and the hearing will take place some day next week. Bennallack pleaded not guilty on the first charge against him and will have his hearing on Saturday. The Holiness Band. The Holiness Band had a bigger audience than ever at Friday night’s street. meeting. Mr. Organ, the leader, said he had been holding such gatherings in many towns, large and small, but nowhere else had the people treated him and his fellow missionaries with such respectful attention, such uniform kindness, as here. “The hardest old sinner in the crowd looked mightily pleased and proud-at the complimentary words so gracefully spoken by the great revivalist, and.turning to a friend who stood near by whispered in his most gentle tones lest he might disturb the torch bearers or some ‘feow sinner-who was listening, “Tf-allthe-gospelsharps was as perlite as his nibs, we’d_jine the church too, eh, ole pard?’ This morning at eleven o’clock and thisevening at7 Mr. Organ and his little band will hold forth ‘at the Baptist Church, and they invite the town to be theif guests. To-morrow Mr. Orgafi takes his departure from here to labor for the Lord in other fields. “¥ Don’t Feel Like Work.’’ It makes no difference what business you are engaged in: whether you-are a preacher, a merchant, a mechanic, a lawyer or a common laborer, you can’t do your work well while you are half sick. ‘Thousands try to, but all in vain. How much better to keep your organs in good order by taking Parker’s Tonic when you feel “a little out of sorts.””~ It would be money in your pocket.” One hour of good, rejoicing health is worth halfa bozen hours” full of languor and pain. tf td Still Reducing.

Te na Ae . The ussey Mine, Hussey mine in “Willow. Valley have just been crashed, and gave big returns. —Transcript. . Here is another of those ‘very ‘satisfactory’ mining itemsso often seen in the papers. The crushing gave “‘big returns’ is very satisfactory to the public. Five dollars to the ton might be considered “big”? by some, when others would think twice that amount would:be very small. Such items are not worth the writing and printing.—Grass Valley Union. Now that our contemporary, has growled its growl, a word or ' two from this source is necessary. The Hussey mine is in litigation, and the mill men who crushed the ore in the dark as to tlie yield of the ore so if they were called into Court they could truthfully swear ignorance as to the amount cleaned up. The Transcript reporter could not underthe cireumstancés politely press the question as to the value of the ore per ton, however anxious he was to know and print pom He was merely told that it “paid big,’ and that is all he can testify to if put. on the witness stand. We recently said they. had a fine clean-up atthe Eagle Bird mine in Washington township, after a short run. The Union wanted to . know why in thunder we didn’t give more definite information The fact. is we. couldn’t then, because “it is a “close corporation” like most of the Grass Valley mining companies. Since then we have learned indirectly but on the best of authority~that the said clean-up amourited to $16,000. Weare always giad-to give particulars when we can. But when wé can’t we’ can’t, whether the Grass Valley papers like it or not. oe Washington District. mining district continue to be uniformly encouraging. The continuance of fine weather permits developments to be pushed ahead in all directions, and a big year’s work will be done. The ledge at the Yuba is being sunk and drifted on, and is daily increasing in size and growing richer as a greater depth is reached. Ten more stamps will be added tothe’mill immediately, and it will doubtless be found necessary to make a still further . enlargement of the capacity for crushing before the coming summer is over, as an immensé body of fine ore is being uncovered. Mr. Webber, one of the principal stockholders in thigs’/property, is interestsd in other well developed claims inthe same vicinity, and the extensive working of them will be begun this season. Good ore is being taken out regularly and in large quantities by the Cornucopia and Secret Treasure Company. The Eagle Bird continues to improve, whichis saying a great deal, for old miners who are. well acquainted with it regard it as one of the gréatest.mines in that district, whigh is equivalent to remarking that there is not a better one in the State forthe amount of capital and labor expended on_ it. Towle Brothers & Co. are rapidly pushing work in extending their lumbering railroad to the summit of the divide near the town of Omega, which will bring the..western terminus of it close to Washington district and give direct rail communication with the Central Pacific railroad. Henpricks has received his first snub. He undertook to have an officer removed from the Chicago Postoflice force and a friend of his appointed. Secretary Vilas informed the Vice President that the position was wholly under the control of the Postmaster of Chicago, and refused to interfere. aie! ARPIVALS AT THE LEADING HOTELS. NEVADA CITY.

Five thousand little bags of superior wheat, each holding half a pound, have been shipped from Oregon_for—distribution at the New Orleans. Exposition. Each bag is stamped with sic great seal of the State. Misfortunes never come singly. The fire company at Tacoma, W. T., losttheir entire capital of $150 by the failure. of the Tacoma Saving Bank, and to crown their distress, their foreman, Henry Schulty, has since skipped the country with their $60 silver speak‘ing trumpet. The Stockton police made a raid on an opium joint Monday evening. Among the patrons was a young lady who is generally supposed to be respectable. The proprieter, Jake Eichman;a_ barber, vainly attempted to deter the officers from entering by threatening to shoot them. A peculiar case of forgery has been brought against Eli Saxton, of Salt Lake City._He filed-a-eomplaint of divorce against his wife inthe Probate Court, and it is alleged, afterwards prepared and caused an answer to be filed to it, purporting to;,be the answer of the defendant, his; wife, in which she admitted all the charges except the one of adultery. A diary was found at Portland, Or., some months ago~ and left’ at the Postoffice for identification, but the owner has not yet claimed it, probably because he is asham~ ed, to judge from the following items which it contains : ‘“‘september the 8, 1884: bear 10, bear 10, treat 15, dise 15, coffeé-house 10, belone 10, bear 5, c6ffee-house 10, shuting-gallery.3%, bear 10, dise 20, cards 100, theatre 25, dise 20, cot feehouse 20; pools 10, drinks 45. —_-o-—me AS EVIDENCE of the fall in "the prieg of land in.the South of Scotland, it is said-+that' an estate was sold recently in East: Lothian for £16,000, which cost £27,000 a few years ago.
