EXPOSING THE RINGS.

There are two journals on this coast
engaged i'll good works at the present
time. One, the San Francisco Chroni-
Gle, is exposing the corruption of the
Federal Ring in California. by show.
ing, how under the guise of loyalty, a
few scoundrels, elected to represent the
people, controlled the Federal patron
age and distributed it among their
henchmen, who were afforded every
opportunity to steal, and assured i'm
munity from punishment, SO long as
they shrieked loyalty, and obeyed the
instructions of the ring masters. The
other Is the Virginia Chronicle. which
is engaged in the task of exposing the
rascality of mining rings on the Com
stock by showing how assessment
mines have paid dividends, and large
ones, too, to those on the inside, and
have been worked for the benefit OF
gallant superintendent and dashiug
widows instead of the stockholders. In
these undertakings both journals have
much to contend with. as the
rings are powerful and influential.
bat OF their success in the end there IS
no reasonable doubt. la fact the Vir-
GINA Chronicles has already achieved
one victory in breaking up the Curtis
Cooper management of the Ophir, and
IS now making the managers of the
much assessed Julia squirm. 1t is
needless to say that the sympathies of
honest people IN Nevada and California
are with the Chronicles IN their strug-
giles with the rings.
