Welcome Back.

The APPEAL takes great pleas
ure in welcoming back Hon. H. F.
Bartine to the ranks of the Repub-
licsns party. Taking bad council
from his friends, he joined the de-
Election of 1882 and gave to the
malcontents about all the brains
and standing they had. It is not
surprising that gentleman of Mr.
Rar1ine's intelligence was quick to
realize in what sort Of political
company he had been thrown, and
now does the candid and honorable
thing by admitting that he was
wrong, and desires to come back
and move among his old political
friends and associates. He will
address the citizens of Carson on
Friday evening a. the Opera House
and We are sure that when his elo-
cuence is given to the good cause
Of true Repu5licanism, it will
ring out with all Of lis old time
force and beauty. We are certain
that he Will be given an enthusi-
astic reception.

gain added to the Garfield majority
