Lgroonanucruee Nevada Comty Offoial Pross. I a) SUNDAY MORNING, MAY 1oth. ° “Pook FRLLOW.—The parton is in a bad way about the Union League meeting. He whines likes sore headed canine because he -was'nt consulted or notified when thé ¢all Was postponed for » Week. Perhaps he don’t like the postponement, because he had a rigmarole specch three or four hotrs jn length that he was anxious to get off, but the postponement brought other speakers to . “Pie meeting and blocked hint out. It locke ‘like it. Poor fellow! “Heaven tempers the wind to the shoro lamb,” they say. We _ hope the parson may receive the like favor. . foe i The parson is positive had the meeting come off on the night first chosen, and time had’ beén taken to get up the resolations ‘we should not have met with such loose and hastily written expressions as ‘stripes ebsoured or stars erased.’ Why did'nt the parson, with his profound knowlege of grammar and his classical English move to “‘tighten” up those ‘‘lonse” expreasions by offering amendments? Perhaps he might have polished the diction of Daniel Webster so that it would have sounded a great deal better. It don’t look well forthe parson to whine t a matter after it is done, when he did . hoftattempt to Better itgwhile it was doing. « Bat the parson has the colic about the way the meeting was gotten up. He says he don’t like the way. He was'nt .consulted.— He throws out insinuations about personal ‘feelings and “‘cliqueships" (Not loose and and . hastily written expressions!). Poor goose If he were half as assiduous in trying to learn facts as he is in dealing with mean insinuations, he might not come so often to grief. Since it seems to be his design to cree tite cliques where none exist, and insists upvo making a fuss about the way the meeting was called, and postponed, we may as well tell what we know about it. We were asked fipon the street one day, why we did not call » meeting for the formation of a Union Weasnid in reply, we would a callin the TRANSCRIPT . {if ethers would relieve us from all further care in the matter. We were told to go ahead. The call was made. The day bee * fore the meeting was advertised to come off, we think it was, Rev. Mr. Cummings called 00 us to learn what bad beea dene. We explained to him our connection with the matter. He urged the importance of seeing to it that everything be prepared in time. As, , “what is everybody's business is nobody's business,” we prowised to inquire and find out what had been done. We took a turn about the town and found that-not a speaker had been engaged, nur had a particle of atteution been paid to getting up the meeting iw proper shape. In this dilemma, the men whe asked us to call a meeting advised with. Out a dissenting voice, and a goodly number of the prominent Union men of the town were consulted, that the meeting be post» poned fora week. In accqrdande with their suggestions, we announced the postponeutent, It was notour business to notify the person or anybody cleo. We preferred to have others take the lead in the matter, only —~—~—heaarving to ourselves the tight to pay our share of the expenses, which we have done. The Transcripr advertised the meeting tWe Weeks, and paid the gas bill and bell. ringer. If the parson 1 ambitious of a like Gistinction, he can have a chanor. We hope to bear no more of this contemptible whining, and insinuations about cliques. The one who anys therd<ie # clique here is wo ase or a demagogue. a A Goop OrvEn.—teneral Suntec, who iain bis Own person the very beati ideal-of bold dragoon, has issued an order holding alt. cavalry outposts responsible for surprises effected in the neighborhvod of their stations and their range.
