Contract LET.-After due consider
alton, Mr.. S. Kenney concluded yester-
day to award the contract for the fur
nishing of material and building his
three story brick block on the corRer of
Front and Columbia streets, to Messrs.
kanke Il Lehse, on their bid of Sl5,25o.
Mr. Ranks stated last evening to q re-
porter of this journal that work would
be commenced at once and pushed for
ward as rapidly as the weather would
Kermit. These contractors have their
own brick, and are in a position TO ST.
cure the other necessary material as
rapidly as needed. Rsnke & Lohse
have done some of the best work in the
city, and it is safe to say will make Mr..
Kenney good job. The building will
have frontage on Front street of 6t
feet, and will extend back about IS feet.
1t is to be three stories high, and will be
an ornament TO Front street. Mr.. Ken
ney is very careful business man, and
does not go into anything that hs does
not see his way clearly through, and he
has used the same precaution In thi;
matter that hs does in all others of like
importance.

Corporations have 10 seuls.- Were
it otherwise, even Bob IngersoIl, who

Last winter there was gold mining ex-
element at Cueur d'Alene. At first re-
ports of alleged rich developments the
public were incredulous. But the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company,
with a greed, diabolical in its cruelty.
procured publication of aIluriug &C
counts of fabulous discoveries Of gold
IN that region and finally issued a cir
cuiar giving official sanction 10 state
men.s abominably false and deceiving.
This Was done solely fer the purpose of
melting a rush 10 the alleged EldOrado.
in order that large sums Of money
would be thus turned into it's Golfers by
the deluded victims Of its swindline
circular. The scheme vas successful.
Thousands Of men rushed in Bidwinter
into the trap. Ths receipts Of the rail
road company from fares and freights
on provisions were enormous. They
fouEd deep SHOWS, swollen rivers, dis
comfort, suffering and hunger. They
found little beside. Many of these VIC
tins of barbarous lie turned about
and while yet they had sufficient money
retraced their steps. Others more
sanguine, waited till the SHOWS melted
only 10 be disappointed. and then with
out funds, turned homeward, penniless
and disheartened. All along the rail
road line, during the past summer, a
weary procession of the victims Of this
heartiess swindle has trailed. They
are called tramps, aud put off trains
whenever they attempt to catch ride,
ever the country 10 search Of work and
food. Many have dropped out of sight
and existence, and lie Hnshrouded, IN
oofiined and unbulied, away from civ
ilization's track. MANY have been
hanged by cowboys in Montana, on bare
suspicion of being horse thieves. The
history of this fraud. its inception,
growth and outcome, forms chapter
in the annals of corporate inhumanity
never p.rslled in this country. A
glimpse OF the results of the famous
Gold Circular" issued by the Northern
Pacific Railroad Company is given
elsewhere in a letter from Eagle City,
Idaho, recently published in the New
York Sun.

GARRISON AND GOElD.

Concerning the sale to Jay Gould of
the Missouri Pacific Railroad by Com
mod0re Garrison, who then owned it
outright, there is a story told which is
eminently characteristic of Commodore
Garrison's we'll known determination
and grit. The Commodore had bought
the property for $4,000 at foreclo-
sure sale when 1t was in very unprom-
ising and bankrupt condition. When
Mr.. Gould wanted to buy the road be
sent Russell Sage to make the negotia-
tions with the Commodore. The latter
was smart enough to know that Mr..
Gould wanted the Missouri Pacific very
badly.
81 want 100000 for it," said the
bluff Commodore.
Dear me, Commodore" said Mr..
sage, lnsinuatlngiy; you only paid
$500, 900 for 1t yourself"
The price to you is $2,OO0,O oO."
That's too much" said the frugal
Mr.. Sage.
Good day, sir" said the Commo-
dore.
Next day Mr.. Sage. after consulting
with MIR. Gould, came again to see the
Commodore.
buAuA NO III Jake tub IUAu III your
price, Commodore" said he.
What price?"
why, $2,000,O00."
That was yesterdays price. Today
| want $3,0O0.0O0."
GOOD gracious, Commodore! YOU
said yourself that you would sell for
$1,000, GOO"
80 1 would, if you had taken it
then. New | want $3,000,000. If you
will take 1t now, you can have it for
that. Ii not, it will cost you more"
The good Mr.. Sage was greatly per
picked. and said he would again have to
consult Mr.. Gould. He begged the Com
modore to wait antil the next day, and
not make another raise in the price,
but the shrewd old gentleman would not
promise.
On the following day Mr.. Gould him
self went to see the Commodore, and it
was diamond cut diamond. The great
operator was willing to give $1,000, 600,
but the Commodore had advanced the
figure again TO $4,000,0O0. This Goald
positively refused to pay, whereupon
the Commodore quietly announced bis

rsIemphis Appeai.1


There is what may almost be called a
want of principle IN our way OF giving
charity. Il consists in helping sick
or otherwise unfortunate individual with
Temporary aid. without troubling our
selves about his permanent welfare. We
do not try sufficiently TO put the object
of our kindness into = position so tnat,
when the next sickness or misfortune
occurs, be will be able to face the eouse-
qgent ditisulty without charitable aid.
Il is plainly much better1 place man
where be will not fall in difficulty at
all, rather than let him fail and then
give him aid. We have an instance OF
this kind of giving without regard to
sound principle in the iRdiffere1ee that
il shown to the subject OF postal savings
banks There are such institutions IN
other countries, and they are of lncalcu-
liable value to persons of moderate
means. Wherever they exist they are
priced by the poor and highly esteemed
by the benevolent. To be saving some
thing in a bank is vondrous stImala-
tor TO industry, economy and temper
ance. Look at all the extent of our
southern country, and see all our work
ing people, from laborer to book keeper,
left without any safe and reliable oppor-
tunity to save their quarters and dollars.
boarding is not safe, and IN little
strait the little money that is boarded IN
the house will De taken, but il the money
were in the bank il would not so readily
be taken out. Here is way by which
permanent good can be done TO thou
sands. yet persons who will give money
III temporary aid TO the poor will take no
trouble to induce Congress to establish
the postage savings bank system mere
that is doing such a world of good in
England and elsewhere. In this case,
as in some others, we see what We may
call the instinct of compassion, but not
the sound principle of genuine charity.
The subject is one We commend to the
reflection of kind hearted men and wo-
men. Canada mas had these savings
banks sixteen years. The first years de
posts amouniedIto 1856 Sl4; the present
year they are Sl3,2i5,552, which shows
how popular the banks are where there
has been ample experience of their
value,
