PAACHAL COGGINS.

Has THE GOVERNMENT BECAME VILLAIN
Gus IN ALL IT'S DEPARTMENTS Our East
ern exchanges are filled with accounts charges
and proofs of thefts and corruptons by post
masters in the stealing and suppression Of
Democratic and Liberal papers and docu-
,nents, and now comes the charge from San
Francisco that the same thing is done on this
coast. There seems no longer a doubt that
this is done by direct orders from Washington.
The German American Reform organization
in San Francisco, by its secretary, sent out
thousands of invitations to their friends in
the country to attend a barbecue at the City
Gardens. Each invitation enclosed paid
envelop, Oh the back OF which was printed
in large, plain letters, "Max Cohnheim,
Secretary of Germ 'n-American Ref,rm Or
ganization, 224 Montgomery street, San
Francisco" George A. Keehner and two
others of Auburn sent an answer in one of
these envelopes, and we learn from the Posi-
that it never reached Cohnheim, and that
only abont one out Of twenty of the invita-
tions or answers reached their places of des-
tination. Such monstrous villainios as
these by Grant and his officials ought to cost
each of the guilty ones their necks Who
could have believed the United States gov
ernment would have reached such ungodly
corruption. Could a Washington, Adams,
Jefferson, Madison or Jackson be quickened
with the news of these Grant crimes, we
think they would burst their graves. This
is a fouler act against the Germans than any
body of people should stand.

ANDREWS vs. PRArT.-ln our article on
this Supreme Court decision last week, in
our suggestions to the present Board of Su-
pervisors, we did not clearly state the facts
The whole amount of money raised and fur
nished to Mr.. Andrews to pay costs and at
torneys did not reach 500, and the attor-
neys, Norton & Bullock, have been two
years and over fighting this case through the
District and Supreme Courts, and have re-
ceived mparatively nothing for their ser
vices. We intended to be understood as
asking that the county should appropriate
money enough to refund the money advanced
by the taxpayers, and enough more to lib
orally and fairly pay the attorneys and all
others for their actual time and services, and
if the Supervisors had not the authority to
do this then to apply to the Legislature to
grant it, Such, we feel sure is the demand
of ninety-nine ont Of every one hundred tax
payers of the county.

ELECTION TICKETS. Greed Raymond ,one
of the Code Commissioners, has given it as
his opiuion that election tickets this year,
under the Code, cannot contain anything but
filled. That there must be no cuts OF flags or
eagles or head lines, such Liberal, Greeley
or anything else on them. just here and
under this condition of things, we suggest
that the officers of the Greeley and Brown
and Grant and Wilson State Central Com
mittees at San Francisco meet and agree on
the legal form of ticket, each pledging
themselves to abide by the form, and have a
lot of samples printed and send them to the
different County Central Committees as a
guide for the preparation of tickets. This
course might avoid future trouble

Is $3.50 THE PKIcE ?-Murphy, of the
Gilroy Adrocate, neutral paper and op-
posed to Houghton for Congress in the
Southern district, suddenly came out for
Houghton in its last issue. This excited
the people of Gilroy, and on inquiry it was
found that Houghton had given Murphy a
check for $3.50, and that Mayor Howard, OF
Gilroy, had cashed the check for Murphy
whereupon the Greeley and Brown club OF
Gilroy held meeting and expelled Murphy
from the club. 1t is said Page, the r. r
candidate of this District, pungled $3.50 to
the Argus, which makes us inquire if $3.50
is the price to be paid for newspaper support
of Stanford's Congressman this year?

ISIT 4 BACK DOWN!

The editor of tn Stars and Stripes has
heretofore pub lished thatH. \. Page, Grant
candidate for Congress in this District, ap-
preached him and offered him 81 900 for his
and his papers support; that again he offered to
have a mortgage railroad parties held on the
office for 81 400 cancelled, and pay in cash
5000 for this support thus showing that
Page and the monopoly were both willing to
buy support for Page. In the same article
Mr.. SelkirIs dared Page to choose one man,
him one and the two a third, all Grant men =,
who should hearthe testimony and decide who
are utterng falsehoods and telling lies about
this attempted bribery. Since these articles
Page has been here and gone without daring
to accept this fair banter, thus leaving the
impression on all minds that he was guilty
In Thursdays issue the editor of the Stars
and Stripes, in a card referring to Pages
statement of the matter in his speech here,
says:
"His Auburn statement heard, and as to its
material points deliberately pronounce it false
in whole and in every part, in general and in
every detail. | undertake to prove that he
has spoken falsely. and that his falsehoods must
have been deliberate and studied. l INTEND TO
PROVE ri don't propose to permit any fair
minded citizens OF Placer county to labor under
any misapprehension this subject"
We think Mr.. Page had better accept
this banter, for we nave no personal quarrel
with him, SO that both parties can be heard
and all the facts known, as Mr.. Selkirk pro-
poses to lay his testimony before the public
anyhow. No man can deny but what Mr..
Selkirk has the best of it so far, and that
Page rests under damaging cloud as yet
in this bribery matter.

There is a certain reserve Of manner which is
always desirable, modesty, courteousness and
queiude which wins the respect it deserves, but
this is easy distinguinhable from that mental at
tiiude which is ever holding back all that is dis
tinctive of the individual himself all that s noar-
est to him and that he most prizes all that ne
most truly loves aud is from the sight and touch
OF human sympathy. Such habit Of mind is mar
rowing aud hardening keeping one always ON the
defensive, and dequalifyinR him for that cheer
tul compsnionehp and cordial intercourse which
SERVES ~ greatly to tighten the trials aud multi
l1y the pleasures ot life. There are those who
are ready to converse freely on common topics of
general interest, but who carefully avoid all that
may lead to disclosure of their own private
thoughts feelings and experiences. Few sub
iects can be thus handled, except in the most
superficial manner, and the result is unsatisfac-
tory, an impression being generally left of want
OF candor and sincerity. Oompanionship grows
dull and languid, and friendship is checked in
the Dud. lie who never talks of himself, who
never reveals his inner nature who never snf-
feis himself to think alund, forreits ono of the
sweetest joys of human life, that of sympathy
and confidence.

From Poverty TO wealth,

AN orPoRTrNE TURN IN THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE.
The Denton Union says;
few years ago, and since the close of the
war family by the name of Sybil, consisting
of two brothers and a sister, Mrs Seaton, re-
moved from Florida to Maryland Mrs Seaton.
wife Of Mr., George W. Seaton bought farm
and settled in the lower part of this county.
The two brothers located in Dorchester.
Mr. Seaton, when too late, found out the
lands lie purchased was covered up with
mortgages and It was SOLD from hlm. lie
was left in destitute circumstances and re-.
duced so low that 1t was with difficulty he could
procure the commonest nece-saries of life
The brothers residing in Dorchester shared
similar fate. But two weeks ago
one OF them applied to a oolnred family for a
few potatoes saying he would endeayor Ia
mGh out with them uutl he could do better
Their condition became known to their neigh
hnrs who kindly lntributed of their means to
relioye their wants.
But how great the change II is now reported
upon seemingly good authority that the govern
ment at Washington has recently paid to the
two brothers and Mis- Seaton, as the legal heirs
Of their ancestors the sum OF one hundred and
twenty thousand dollars derived from the gov
erhmeLt of spain as indemnity for spoiations,
during the war Of lSl2. and that the entire claim
amounts TO about one no'(,og Of dDadTs. How
strange are the freaks Of fortune
