A FOOLISH OFFER.

Some weeks ago the Enterprise
contained an editorial relative to
the forfeiture of land grants. The
APPEAL argued the same question
from another standpoint, and as
the Enterprise was silent for about
a week, We concluded that it had
been convinced of the falsity of its
views. A few days ago, however,
it came to the front with little
paragraph Offering to donate bar
rel of Connecticut cider if the Ap-
PEAL would show a single para
graph in its editorial to the effect
that it opposed the forfeiture of
land grants. We should have re-
piled to this next day. but on re-
fiecting that it took the Enterprise
a week to answer, we were also led
to the conclusion that it might
want us to wait few days before
replying, In an argument of this

kind we do not wish to rush our
deliberate contemporary. It re-
minds us of an old fellow who
when attending q town meeting. al
ways got recorded on both sides Of
the question, because when it came
to q standing vote, he would rise
with the "syes" and then be
counted with the "noes." because
he never had time to sit down be-
fore the second count would be
made. When the Enterprise talks
about giving us a barrel of Con-
necticut cider, it is simply getting
wild. The freight on the cider
from Oregon-where it is made-to
San Francisco and up on the c. P.
to Virginia City and back to Car
son, would knock such hole in q
months salary that it would be
paralyzed. The fact of its excited
offer shows conclusively that it
knows nothing of the practical
workings of the railroad business on
this coast.
