MORNING APPEAL
senator Fairs Views.


It simply amuses the people in
Nevada to see the New York Tele-
gram seriously publishing SEM
tor Fairs views on the condition Of
the Comstock. For the past ten
years any statement he has made
about mining matters, or any other
subject, has been literally dis
counted all over the Pacific Coast
where his adherence of the truth is
known. His trickery, cunning
duplicity and downright solid lying
has become preverbial. Any Ut
tempt on the the part of Senator
Fair to tell the truth would result
in strangulation. He has been lit
orally run out of Nevada and Gal
ifornis by the force Of pubic opin-
ion and leaves behind nothing but
the hearty malidictions Of az out
ragged constituency and the curses
Of thousands of poor people who
have been bankrupted through his
infamous stock manipulations.
The new power coming into poses
sion of the Comstock will soon end
the rule Of Fair and his gang of I'M
scrupulous cappers and hangers on.
Sharon and Jones are once more
naming the ascendancy on the
ledge and will develope the ore
bodies which Fair has so studiously
avoided finding for the past five
years. All that is now needed to
make q stock boom of old time pro-
portions is that the N, rth End be
wrested from the grasp of the men
who have so long ru'ea the des-
TIMES of that section and main
tanned depression in business I'M
exampled in the history of the
State.
