r. Krnriim, San Cejamy i THE LAS VEGAS GRA3TT. Of all in the world fellow who off his own nose to spite hi face, deserves to rank In feremes place; IAS Vegas not without som of genus homo, ev denced bj the character of argumen indulged in by a as reason for no seeking to hare the whole of La Vegas grant patented to the Uwn Vegas, to which grant vrae made and to which it was confirmed. Tue sum and substance of this args mentis: "Don't secure yeu right), MillhUer has himself as farorable to such action. If there 13 soy force to anoh an meat, OPTIC if unab! to see it.

It is simplj- and solely, un mitigated and unrsralshed, ad cap- tandem, and that of tbe baldest an most barren kind. No to shew that th whole grant 'does not belong to th town; that by asking for it, th town cannot gat it; thai by getting i any interest jeopardized; that throwing it away, any benefit is de rired that it will settled more quick ly under government owaerihip tha under the ownership ot the town lhat Laa Vegas will derive benefit by tie government drawing tb revenue, from tha sale of lands tba she will if the town th revenue; that it IB better, In the wa of advancement of the town, for th government to have tha lands and re fojete do anything to develep wate on them, than It is for town have them and that able to devalo the of these poini does the opposition are noticin apply itsslf. On these poinU it ha nothing to About (hem it is a dumb as an oyster. It does, hcwerer make itself hoarse, shouting tbat Mi! hiier favors inuing of the patent tho towu, lor the entire grant, and therefore, the people should oppose it THE OPTIC no- more in Mr. Jdillhiier than it bu any other man it has casually met i the course of It is not ad visor, his apologist, nor his maligner" Neither have that 'crazy anmily him which would Jt'ad us ruin our selves and community in, order le ruin him.

Nor yet are we 10 afraid Uillhiser that tho mere Uct of ap proving plan will, frighten tu into opposing it, of its The only possible sensa there can be in this MiUhijer argument must be th that in illllhiaer'i claim good nnd that ol town is If the patent Issues to the town, then the government withdraws from tho case, the town is the owner de facto and if Mr. Millhiser wishes- can prosecute his claim before tke courts if his claim Is goad, he will jfain it In the same way ho can prosecute bis claim in the courts against the.gpvern- ment, and if his claim it good wil it. But, if his claim is good id trill lose it; and just here comes in ho difference. case, the government ho benefit if he loses, other, tha -town geu the If he loses, in reaps in benefit MOSUAV APRIL PKLEGATC U'OSCPB tolcoo- grets a memorial by 'the citinris of Sooorro, praying for- an additional amrndment to oi the i'nued States. Buried in judiciary the amendment waj.

Itnce, the only reason to foar Mill- liser is that his claim is better than Irat of the town. This' THE OPTIC loej not believe snU so daes not fear lira at nil. On the contrary, claim, wo'beliavo, is better than that of the grivernmont, and the surest way him succeed, in courts, is or the government to assume the ownership of tbVland. Dually; after stale, and even own Territory, is asking Ihu general government for arid lauds, in the ground that they cannot be re- ilaimed under the United States land aws, distributing them in 160iacro racts, here came along these wi: and ask' the government, to ate back thesu.arid lands, around Las Vgis, iusteadj.of patenting to he to they had been and confirmed. Truly, the wisdom few onoruaniscs cannot be than hit of the asaruibled sagacity of the entire west.
