Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1878-04-17

We don't like to harp upon one string, but
We SPEAK for the teachers when We ask for Il
greater expression of interest. We have at
tended portions Of the examinations in FIVE Of
the departments, all bat one, So far examined,
and we have oa.y seen one Trustee present,
on one occasion, and not one growing tax
payer. Ladies' made up the audience as they
generally do They are in the majority i'll
schools and churches, and will be III heaven,
doubtless
Nor REQUESTED TO ANNOUNCE. In our
issue of Sunday last, we said, under the head
ing, Gone from our Gaze, eve are requested
to announce that our our Esculapian towns
man, DR.. Grindley, is about to fold up his
tent" etc. Now, we wrote 1t i'll all good feel
ing, aud with no intention OF woundlng the
highly sensitive nature of the good Doctor
We have since learned that he has consider
able delicacy about having his name in print,
and having apolOgized personally to the gen
tleman for having said anything about h.s
leaving, we now, at his request, take back
what we said about being requested to an
nounce. We thought he had requested us 70
announce, but as We misunderstood him, and
no assures us he made no such request, We
publicly exhonerato him from the implication
and say, in all humility and with the greatest
Difference to his feelings, that when We wrote
We are requested to announce, we thought We
had been requested to announce, and 10"
being satisfied we were not requested to an
nounce, we cheerfully admit that the an
nounCement was not requested, and We erred
unintentionally and with the best OF motives,
We now say, without being requested to an
nounce, but simply on the ground of observa-
tions at the station, that the Doctor did leave
on the Reno train last night and let him 60
where he will, we wish HIM we'll
DIES At LAST. Yesterday morning the
new dies for the L. S. Mint arrived from
Philadelphia There were ten diverse, ten
reverse and six collars The dies were hard
ened yesterday and the big Ajax press will
start up to-day. There are 632,325 blanks
ready for the press, and when they get to
work will turn out the dollars at the rate of
80, 900 per day We have had our little say
about the dollars coined in Philadelphia, and
now the Conner here is driven to follow i'll
the footsteps, or rather the press whacks, of
the concern on the Delaware Great disgust
was expressed at the general appearance of |
the dies All that has been said as to the |
Wretched workmanship of the Philadelphia
dollar, will be equally true of the Carson dol
lar, and it can't be helped. The die repre-
sents the same wide, fiat, pelican bat of the
wilderness, and will show up all the defects
of the coin. The c. G. in the die is very in
distinct, and looks rs if it would turn out two
periods. We wish it may, and that the un-
artistic appearance of the coin will lead the
Government to employ new designer and
give us a new die, dollar and deal. The
United States ought to be ashamed to Issue
such piece Of workmanship, and at least
should allow a small discount on the face of
The thing.
