FOOL OR KNAvE, WHICH

us of having never uttered sentiment
in condemnation of a Democratic official,
and instances the Harbor Commission
ers, the votes Of Senator Banvard, the
Sacramento election and the course of E.
Black Ryan, on that occasion. ln these
charges our Lilliputian beggar next door
puts his foot in it again." and from what
follows, all must admit that the beggar of the
A,yus is disgusingly ignorant Oh what the
Scriptures term: ''be that loveth and maketh
4 lie." We will answer the falsehoods as
hey occur in the chickadee ring organ.
The HERALD was the first of the county press
to denounce the Uarbor Commission frauds,
under the caption of " More Stealing" We
set forth at the time the enoriniiy of the
steal, stating explicitly thai the Safe OF
commerce had been systematically swindled

Thus the third fal-chood is n,iled to the
slippery soft soap carcass of the argus beg

1t is against our nature, reader, to thus
publicly pen and publish the proofs Of these
open falsehoods on the HERALD, by even
his craven Liii ulian beggar Of the argus,
vet it is due the public and the .4rgus stock

caught in the very act and exposed. We
have now before us searching and crush
mg article on this evil, stupid, would-be ed
tor, written by an able old line Republican,
who stands ready to prove every word OF it,
but we have declined to make it public be-
cause it contains matters pertaining to busi

the HERALD. The HERALD only deals with
he public and official acts Of men and We
repeat this here that the Aryts may know
! th,, it has no competition i'll private scandal
md may root and revel in private filth, its
native element, to its hearts content.
