The Times makes Hon. A. j. Evans
say the LIGnT Ia not Republican. This
is difference Of opinion, but Mr.. Evans
was not Republican enough TO give up
his fat Federal position to lead the for
lorn hope Of the Republican party as
Governor when Newoomb nominated
him. Possibly his zeal as Republican
Is measured by the amount Of his regu-
lar salary, and the woods are just full
of such Republicans.

On THE subject of the Mullgan- Fisher
letters the New York Tribune saws:
mo Republican will wish to change
the picture which these letters present.
An honest man, led by friend to risk
his money in an enterprise, puts up all
that he can, strains his resources to the
utmost to prevent any failure to meet
promises by himself or his friends, and
Is plundered to the end by set OF black
mailers who lay down ON him because
they calculate public man cannot af-
ford to have any scandal about money
matters. Fisher reckoned that any
falseho0d against public man would be
believed; the truth, never. We shall
see II he was right. But 1t is most hui
initiating to the American people that,
after all these years OF scandal and
defamation, IL should now be found that
some Of them have been befooled by n
sharper like Warren Fisher into suspect
ing or believing evil Of an honored and
worthy statesman like Mr.. Blaine. Ex-
posed TO temptation every hour for 30
years, able to sell his influence at almost
any time for millions, he gets fleeced by
a Fisher because he will not be dishonest
or voluntarily let his name be furnished.
His services have been national. The
great party behind him has made the
grandest part of the history of the
nation. Yet there are found men of that
same nation who would distort the
words OF the statesman rather than
doubt the knaves who neeced him; who
would believe the selfconvicted liar,
Mnlligan, rather than the indignant,
" This letter is strictly true" Of Mr..
Blaine.

AN HONEST MINERS GOLD DUST.
a swindler's Clever Scheme That Failed
TO Work.


Last evening man entered 5. Ginsberg's
cigar and fruit store, representing himself
as a miner, and, presenting sack which
he said contained gold dust, requested Mr..
Ginsberg to put it in his safe until morn
ing, and advance him $50 to use for hotel
and other purposes until next day; also, to
furnish a supply of cigars. The request
was complied with and the man left. Soon
afterwards Mr. Ginsberg concluded that it
might be well to examine the contents of
the sack and see that all was right. He
did So and found that the sack contained
shot and sand; if there was any gold dust
it was not visible to the naked eye. Search
for the swindler was commenced at once,
and Ginsberg met him on the street, and,
assisted by his brother and Chief Engineer
Sullivan. took him TO the calabOose, where
he gave the name of Conrad Close. A
charge of obtaining money under false pre-
lenses has been entered against him.
Yesterday afternoon a boot and shoe
dealer on X street met Chief Jackson and
informed him that his conscience troubled
him for retaining information that the po-
lice should have, and he proceeded to state
that man came to him that morning and
said that he had made q raise he
tanning $500 in gold dust, got him
drunk, relieved him of the sack and CON
cealed it on the levee He would take the
shoemaker in partnership in the matter,
and give him half the dust if he would adj
vance 800 on the remainder. The shoe
maker declined to do so, and lectured him
upon the enOrmity of the OtfenSe commit
ted in robbing the miner. The man went
away, and subsequently returned and offered
to sell the dust for 5000, saying that he
he would take the shoemaker to where the
sack was, and the latter could pick il up
and put it III his pocket, and being thus
made sure of the property, the pay
ment Of the money would be IN order. The
shoemaker persisted in his refusal to have
anything to do with the business, and con-
cluded to inform the police. On his way
to the station-hOuse he met the man on the
street and was told by him that he had a
customer for the sack, as friend was 60
ing to give him $500 for it when the bank
opened in the morning, and the shoemaker
need not think anything more about il. |
This made the latter still more anxious to
tell what he knew to the police before the
sack should be disposed of, and the poor
miner lose his property for ever. When /
Chief Jackson suggested to him that in all |
there had not been any miner !
robbed, but that it looked like a scheme to !
sWindle him out of the sum of money he !
could be persuaded to advance, the shoe !
maker was astOnished; it had never occurred !
TO him that way, but he thought it might
be SO. and his anxiety to have the man ar
rested increased. Doubtless the sack left
with Ginsbcrg is the same one.
