should not be tolerated. Illustrative OF
the style, read this : " We see by the daily
papers that Professor Flint has presented
y hfty-cent piece TO the Pacific Coast Pho
neers for the cabinet. That same half
dollar half has been refused by every bit
saloon In Virginia City. The Professors
occasional bursts Of generosity are une-
qualed."
