The Observer is in receipt of
the Qrst number of the first
volume of the "Maverick", print
od in Baker City, Oregon and
published and .edited by J W
Coiiuella and L Bush Livermore
which appeared before the
reading pnblic on Saturday,
May J 3th.
If the succeeding numbers of
the publication are as newsy
and unbiassed as the first issue,
then it is a paper to be welcom
ed by the people. Awarding
to the salutary editorial, the
"Maverick" is well named, as it
bears no man's brand. The
publishers, in a manly manner,
say that they have no exouie to
offer for the "Infliction" of the
paper on the publio, but state
it is published for the revenue
they may legitimately obtaiu.
The Observer givea them the
glad hand on their debut an
wishes them success if tLey run
the paper as indicated in the
editorial.
