SCRAPS AND CRUMBS.

issuing their promises to pay. They are &C
oumulating their feecy boards. The rain,
the hail, and the snow are foretold. The
blackness of wrath is there The sprinklin2
scouts of the coming storm have stolen
amongst u.s. The videttes of the tempest
have opened their desultory fire. We are
metaphorical. The season is drawing to a
close. Maybe we had better have said SO.
We are not Ossian. We have not wandered

We nestle in the valley. The King of Storms
keeps his lair on the tops of mountains. Let
him keep it What is August that it should
forsake the summer? What mean these

weatherish.
We are glad to meet and greet Governor
Hagerman, once more. How appropriate it
is that Hagerman should become candi-

said to this scribe "'Spose We nominate
Bradley and elect him What Democratic
principle have we vindicatedl How much
good has he done the party in these eight
years of his gubernatorial incumbency
What, besides a personal triumph, would
Bradleys reelection signify p Of course,

And so We are for Hagerman, the one termer
AS far as the MORNING APPEAL can be con-
sistently detected in the ways of the Demo
cratic, we are for Hagerman. We like his
busting ways, like the fresh, frst-term bloom
upon his cheek, like his hearty greeting, like
to see the well regulated little row he is kick
ing up in the camp of the Broadhorns. Peert
and energetic, this same Hagernan, as we
have intimated before. We begin to think, |
moreover, that he is going to make the crown
which sits upon the Bradlerian head, rest |
with uneasness there. Meantime Hagerman
keeps moving He has many friends among |
the Ormsby Democracy.
Our old friend Elsie, erst of the assembled |
wisdom from the Base Range, was in the city |
yesterday. A trihe grizzled, but with face
betokening vigOr and vim, has he.
Among the arrivals by yesterday mornings
train was Sam Jones of the Crown Point Su-
perintendency. Been out to Cherry Greek,
prospecting, has Sam We noticed his step |
when he hurriedly jumped to the tune of call
aboard" Bounced like trap ball, the rogue !
Many square inch OF leather in that same
Sam.
The frugal housewife always gets very
square deal with John Cheney-square deal
in provisions, country produce and the likes,
we mean. Also shelf goods, canned things,
choice sauces, pickles and things. Altogether
an exemplary grocer.
The Carson Savings Bank is doing thriv
ing business these days. President Tuhy
has to shake out reef in tho sails of his wide
spreading energy, now and again. If we had
any surplus moneys that needed saving, we'd
put EN- there and let up grow.
Our Agricultural and Speed Promoting So
ciety is doing its work wisely and with effect
iveness. Our friend Pantlind is very busy,
very enterprising and very thoughtful man.
He beats EN- all as "rustler." We are not {
only indebted to him for the best hotel in the
State, but for the revival of multitude of
and productive interests of varied
and miscellaneous sort Public spirited - {
that's the word. Lucky to have so energetic
and inventive a man for Secretary of our So &
ciety Wish we had more men like him.
Our handsome friend Deal came in on the
train yesterday. Has been making tour of
The Lake and taking in the fishing and hunt .
ing grounds. Says he killed some grouse and
\ deer. The deer was nine months old fawn.
He killed it about FIVE miles from Tahoe City.
This promises well. In the meantime Deal
says he will not be candidate for Congress.
Is too poor, he says. Just let him make a
raise in stocks and see what iutter he'll i,
make in the Democratic Convention Guess :,
ne III make enough money to be willing to be
That's our guess.
