Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1877-10-11

We are quite sure, always, of the approving
kindle in the eye of each Constant Reader.
These will have noted the unvarying tendency
a wise, operative, conservative economy.
There is, this Notary fatters himself, some
thing of tone in these Ms and Qs; but we
are never above the domesticals or disdainful
of that which is in the line of frugal house
wifery.- Philanthropy is never exclusive, gin
gerly or grandiferous. 1t is too gentle and
solicitous of its ends and purposes to stand on
frigid and rigid dignity. 1t is needless to
tell any of the old and faithful readers of the
MORNING APPEAL that I'VE are philanthropist
1t would be simply mock modesty for us to
affect denial. The so-called " State"
Fair is to be begun at Reno next Monday,
the 18th inst. We think Carson can afford to
go-in small, discreet detachments. Our po-
sition is so admirably assured we can afford to
do anything, almost. We have no idea that
anybody in Carson has any notion of compel
ing for a prize or any such baubles. That
sort of thing would be mira dig. Here and
there well-washed pig, or a patchwork quilt,
quarter horse, pumpkin or a jar of domes-
tic pickles-any small contribution of this sort
in an amateur way and for the love of neigh
borship, this might do. But if we wanted to
do anything in the cattle-show line, of course
we should do it with our own hands and on
our own responsibility Then, to be sure,
the exhibit would be stately, gorgeous, sub
lime, magnificent, worthy Of the great Capital
of great and sovereign State. What we do
for Reno, however, must be in the light of
temporary loan-like lending ones spoons or
china to help out a neighbor's Christmas
party. We must sustain the high moral, social
and intellectual character of the place, what
ever awaits US. .... That Buckeye Inaugural
High Jinks falls due tonight. We have no
doubt it will be very entertaining and very
iovial affair. Whatever is to be the termina-
ton, no political significance is to be attached!
(Our next poem will be headed No Matter,
and will begin with some such lines as the
following:
Now you see and you don't
Now you're lean and now your fatter
Who cares how this world runs round?
Nothing meant WneI naug mt the matter
Men go voting now for fun,
Just as children s'Whirl the Platter"
The Era of Good Feelings come
Which means that nothing now's the matter.
It makes no iffrence who wins,
No diff renee whittier parties scatter
The lion and the lamb lie down
Which one inside, it does MT matter.
Politics Well, yes, mere casual mention
lust to show how much better it is never to
have any odious opinions or entertain any I'M
pleasant convictions, or in any way to inter-
rupt the sweet harmony of this delightful sea-
son of universal love and fraternity and ten
derness of mutual regard. -. But to return
10 the Buckeyes and their Club. This Notary
is highly disfavored by the circumstances
which shut him off from Sam Daviss Lecture
on Connecticut, for Sam is genuine humor-
st, crisp, racy and hugely entertaining. Dag
gett's poem will be something splendid, and
nobody needs TO be assured that Col. Bob
will read it with effect. We note that Deacon
Gibson is to sing song or two He will fetch
