The Highland weekly news. [volume] (Hillsborough [Hillsboro], Highland County, Ohio) 1853-1886, 1880-08-26

Here is proof positive, from the
chairman Of the House inyestigat-
ing committee, that there was no evi-
dence before them, tending in the
slightest degree to show that Gen.
Garfield was guilty Of anything
wrong in connection with the De-
Golyer contract.
Gen. Garfeld's solemn denial is
thus supported by the highest au-
thority. And yet in the face of all
this, the miserable slanderers of his
character expect the people to be-
lieve their false and utterly unsup
ported charges Of bribery and cor
ruption!
We may add that after the reso-
lutions quoted by the Gazette we're
passed, Gen. Garfield thoroughly
canvassed his district, and met and
refuted every charge before his con
stituents, who reelected him to
Congress by a largely increased ma
jOrity over his previous election in
1874, and two years afterwards, in
1873, he was reelected by still
larger majority, showing that his
district had undiminished confidence
in his honor and integrity.
Now, will the Gazette have the
honesty and fairness to let its read
ers see Gen. Garfelds bold and
manly denial of this bribery charge,
and Mr.. Wilson's vindication of his
character, or will it continue to ut
ter a charge which has been proven
to be false, simply for the sake oi
injuring a political opponent?

TIE ONLY JOB OFFICE. APPEAL is the
only newspaper in Carson which has job
Office attached. Political job printing made a
specialty, This announcement is made to let
the public know that any other newspaper
Office in Carson which takes orders for job
work is obliged to send it to Virginia City or
Reno to be filled, thereby causing delay to
the patron of two days and the risk of typo
graphical inaccuracies which could be corrected
if printed at home.

TEE STATE EXPERT 7.

In yesterdays ENterpress MIR. Putnam ar
yues with the APPEAL TO the extern. OF q
column and publishes q letter from Mr.
Hobart, one of the old Beard. While We
10 not consider DR. Hobart by reason of
his ex.oficial position an unprecedented wit
ness, we reprint the part of his letter which,
when reduced to what he really intends to
say, SIMPLY makes a point admitted and eA-
blamed by tho APPEAL nearly week ago.
Mr. Putnam has not as yet succeeded IN
explaining why he considers 80 cents a
thousand cheaper than % cents, although
he hag been repeatedly asked the question.
Ever since the butt end of the APPEALS
column of figures fell On him lac has simply
reserted to personal abuse of tho editor OF
the APPEAL. In doing this he is only toy
ing with edged tosls and making no head
way, as he will soon discover to his sor-
row. We would like to argue the case
from standpoint Of facts and figures and
certified documents and will continue to do
SD until we have seen the end of the official
investigation. We're we disposed to resort to
Mr.. Putnam's method Of argument and &c
outside of the subject matter the alacrity
with which the State Expert would seek to
turn to the contract discussion would surprise
even his oldest acquaintances. We have
asked Mr.. Putnam some plain question in
the local columns which we would like to see
ansSsrsd before we proceed any further. Hia
childish petulance and attempts to be funny
are the NEST convincing proofs to the public
that no is simply wiggling in trap that he
sees no immediate way Of getting oat Of

A CORPoEArIoNs CRUELrI.-A man in
San Francisco is suing the Central Pacific
Railroad Company for putting him of q
train in the midst Of a desolate sagebrush
country, twenty-six miles from any human
habitatisn, because the ticket he had pre-.
scented, and for which he had paid cash,
was moro than nine days old. The Courts
have decided, over and over again, against
the power of corporation to make its own
paper null and void. Yet the Central Pacific
still insists in ignoring the Court decisions.
As we'll might bank issue notes On which a
promise to pay became void after certain
time. Nothing but railroad company
wsuld even dare to enforce such = swindliug
regulation The probabilities are that their
practice in this case Will cost the Company

the editors of the Reno Journal and the Car

either of the persons named are responsible
for the manner in which the party was led
into the ditch in the last campaign has no
foundation in fact. Both the Journal and
APPEAL gave the party some advice, but 1t

THE LOCATION FIEND.

The following from the Salt Lake Tribune
will be appreciated by every sufferer: ''There
is not mining community on the Coast that
is not cursed by the Location Fiend. That
the blackmaier is bad there is no denying; but
for tricks that are mean and tricks that are
contemptible, the Location Fiend is boss.
Like the coyote you can not scare him oil.
With a copy Of Cops hand book and tape
line he reams abroad and wee betide the old
stakes that may come in his way. You might
build another Chinese wall around the l, 900
feet of ground upon which you had been at
work for years and congratulated yourself
upon having clear title if not coed mine.
Try to sell your claim and you will find that
the Fiend has been around and swung the
northwest corner of his '' Whangdoodle
through your Chinese wall, and can bring ten
good citizens to swear that they had seen him
put up the location notice of the "Whangdoo-
dle" long before you we're born. 1t never an
noys the Location Fiend to be cramped for
room. He has been known to climb up one
side of pine tree and down the other with a
tape line between his teeth, IN order To get ali
| of tho 800 feet on each side of his ledge that
the law allows him, The Location Fiend
never works claim. He is too busy for that.
He is the first at a stampede and the last to
leave. You could not get up in the night and
put up q monument on new discovery with
out Gndius the Fiend hard at work stalking OF
extensions. Lynching cannot squelch him
he was never known to die; but we would
suggest as the most effective remedy tor his
determination the enforcement Of the stump
age law Compel the Fiend to pay stumpase
for the timber he has destroyed in making
stakes on the public domain and pine board
would soon mark the last resting place OF the
remains of him who could not live long enough
to deed away half of his mining @ claims.

THE POLITICAL MAINE-IACs CLOSED
OUT.

At the time of last weeks issue the Re-
publIcans of Maine had submitted to the
Supreme Court OF the State series of ques-
tions covering all points determining which
was the legal and proper Legislature of
Malne-the Republicans as elected or the
Fusionists as counted in by Garcelon and
his co-cOnspirators. On Friday the Su-
preme Court answered each question in or.
tense, and the answer was favorable to the
Republicans on every point. Meanwhile
the Fusionists elected Governor, who APP
pointed a staff and tried to relieve General
Chamberlain, and committed all the follies
they could think of. On receiving the de-
cision of the Court the Republican Legisla-
ture met aud proceeded to business. Up
till Thursday the Fusiouis.s were still
trying to keep up their organization bnt
their better men were dropping out and
urging obedience to the decision of the
Court. Certainly a more vllainous attempt
to overthrow the will of the people and
steal State government has never been at
tempted and rarely has one so ridiculously
flattened ont. The Garcelon crowd bic
off more than they could chew" Blaine
can lay aside the bloody shirt now and wave
the pine tree for rally. The Democracy
have neutralized any points they even
claimed Oh us 10 Louisiana. The Maine
stove only happened to be too red hot or it
would have been carried off. Who after
this will doubt their attempt to capture by
unfair means the Florida and Louisiana
electoral vote II seems rather providen'
tial after all that this Maine exemplitica.
ton should have occurred. There has been
little harm done in the attempt to Mexican
ize Maine and great deal has been found
out. 1t seems nov that the Fusionist govern
ment will dissolve away "like the baseles'
fabric of vision " and turbulence cease il
Maine.
