EUREKA, New, Sept. IL, 1884.
Ed. DAILY SENTINEL: Allow me q few
lines in reply to an article in to-day's
paper headed, IAN Alleged Fraud." As
this is not the first time the Coast Re-
view, an old line insurance journal, has
published 1.-THE Mutual Self Endowment
and Benevolent Association" as 3 fraud,
/ will not attempt to reply to it now but
merely say that every line it has pub
lished is false. Notwithstanding these old
line insurance papers have been publish
ing this association ever since its organi-
cation July Is, '81) all over the United
States, we now number $4,000 members
in Is States, with 10 branch Offices
like the one in San Francisco, Cal.
Thelibelous attack made by the San Fran
cisco Chronicle, has been repealed and
thoroughly indicated by the sworn report
OF q Finance Committee of IA citizens OF
different portions Of California. AS this
association is incorporated in Texas.
where the Grand Central Office is located,
the laws Of California do not require the
branch Office in San Francisco to be in
corporated in that State. For further infor-
nation in regard to these attacks on this
association l refer them to the Constitu-
ton, Leaflets. and our Monthly Jour
nal "Commutual Alliance" circulated
in this city and throughout the Pacific
States. l have travelled through six
States and Territories since l left home,
enrolling large clubs, appointing man
ayers, agents and medical examiners al
most in every county, and I found the
best citizens everywhere willing to join US,
although they had read the attacks on us.
As we are increasing from 800 to 200 per
month, il is no wonder the "old liners''
are crying. Let them howl. Respect

THREATS OF INSTANT DEATH.
Unlawful Settlers In Colorado Con-
thine iu Possession of Land.


Mr.. St. John, law clerk Of the General
Land Office, who was detailed to investi-
gate charges contained in an affidavit
to the effect that Is fraudulent enteries
had been made on Bear Greek, in South
eastern Colorado. has reported that the
entries are genuine. A number Of fraud
ulent entries were, however, discovered
north OF Trinidad, Col. In Las Animss
county, COL, Mr.. St. John says that he
found at least 100. 900 acres of the public
land fenced in with barbed wire. These
cases have already been reported TO the
Department. Hall and Barilla have thus
enclosed about 10 miles square, and
Thompson. another cattleman, has en-
closed a tract six by ten miles in extent.
Great hardship to settlers and delay in
traffic and mail transportation results from
these unlawful Enclosures of the public
domain. The penalty inflicted by the
stockmen upon persons who dare to cut
these fences or leave the gates open is
death. and upon many such fences are to
be found signs reading: "Cut this fence
and buy your coffin" The herders are
usually Mexican poems of the lowest class,
and the person who ventures to t~ransgress
the rule and cut the fences is shot down
by one of them, and detection of the assas-
sin is almost impossible.

A Model School Teacher.

A tolcrably athletic young man took a
certain school 10 teach years ago in Western
New York after number of pedagogues had
tried it and given il up in despair. The big
boys had driven the teachers away invaria-
bly,, and the discouragement was 30 complete
the first day that they were not willing to
undertake second edition.
This young man took hold with full
knowledge of the difficulty, aud with hope
that he could succeed. He was mild man.
nered, and he opened the school the first
day with pleading smile on his lips that
made even the small boys reckless. He was
taking the names of the children, and pro-
crossed without difficulty till he came to John
TarboX, the ring-leader of the unruly ones,
and the boy who always gave tho signal for
"trouncing the master"
The new teacher approached him with a
sweet smile on his face, and said:
Nov, will you tell me your name, please?"
The boy leaned back in his seat put his
feet over the top of the desk, and looked cross
eyed at the new teacher, while all the school
rOared.
"Plcase tell me your name" repeated the
teacher pleadingly, and without noticing this
rudeness.
oval" drawled the fellow, sometimes
they call me Bob, and sometimes they call me
Pete, and sometimes they call me somethin'
else, but you better not call me anythingP
The mild. looking teacher had been expect
ing all this; there he had the advantage. He
had prepared himself for fight, not fight
for minute, but for an hour or day, if need
be he had been in a manner trained for it,
and 80, just as the last words were out of the
boys mouth he dealt the big lubber blow
between the eyes that stunned him, and then
grasping him by the collar dragged him head
long over the seats, stood him up on the
floor with a jam, and Numbered out
"What is your nameY"
"John Tarboxl" exclaimed the boy
promptly, and with his eyes fairly bulging
from his head
VERY well. Take your seat john" said
the teacher. And John took it.
| There was no more difficulty, and at the
end of the season that school was said to bt
the best in the country.

| William l.. Marcy, the able Secretary of
State under President Pierce, used to enjoy
| giving the following forcibe illustration of
| what constitutes riches:
"To be rich" said Mr.. Marcy, "rcquires
| only satisfactory condition of the mind.
One man may be rich with hundred dollars
while another, in the possession of Millions
| may think himself poor; and as the necessi
| ties of life are enjoyed by each, it is evident
the man who is the best satisfied with his
| possession is the richer"
TO illustrate this idea, Mr.. Marcy related
the following anccdotc:
while l was governor of the State of
New York" said he, 81 was called upon one
| morning at my office by rough specimen of
backwoodsman, who stalked in and began
conversation by inquring if this was Mr..
Marcyp ?"
81 replied that was my name"
"'Bill Marcy said he"
81 nodded assent"
Used to live in Southport, didn't YEP"
II answered in the affirmative, and began
to feel n little curious to know who my visi-
tor was, and what he was drifting at.
"That's what | told 'em', "cried the back
woodsman, bringing his hand down on his
thigh with tremendous force; 81 told 'em you
was the same old Bill Marcy who used to live
in Southport, but they wouldn't believe it,
and l promised the next time | come to
Albany to come and see you and find out for
sartin. Why you know me, don't you,
Bill?"
81 didn't exactly like to ignore his acquaint-
ance altogether, but for the life of me
couldn't recollect ever having seen him be-
fore; and SO | replied that he had familiar
countenanCe, but that | was unable to call
him by name.
"My name is Jack Smith," answered the
backwoodsman, "and VIC used to go to school
together thirty years ago, in the little red
school house in old Southport. Well, times
has changed since then; and you have be-
come great man, and got rich, suppose"
II shook my head, and was going to con-
tradict that impression when he broke in:
"Oh yes you are; know you are rich
no use denying it. You were Comptroller
for-for long time and the next we heard
of you, you were Governor. You must have
made heap of money, and am glad of it;
glad to see you getting along so smart. You
was always smart lad at school, and knew
you would come to something"
81 thanked him for his good wishes and
opinion, but told him that political life did
not pay so well rs he imagined. 81 suppose"
said l., fortune has smiled upon since you
left Southport"
"Oh, yes, said he, III hain't got nothing to
complain of. You sec, shortly after you left
Southport our whole family moved up into
Vermont and put right into the woods, and
reckon our family cut down more trees and
cleared more land than any other family in
the whole State"
"And so you have made good thing ofit.
How much do you consider yourself WORTH
asked, feeling little curious to know what
he considered fortune, rs he seemed to be so
we'll satisfied with his
how much,I am worth, but l think"-straight-
ening himself up,-'if all my debts were paid
would be worth three hundred dollars clean
cash."
"And he was rich, for he was satisfied"

The Republican Protest Agains
Blaine

The nomination gives the lie to Republ-
can professions of reform, and tends to iden-
tify the party with all that has most discred-
tied it. For the first time the party which
has claimed to be peculiarly the party ofcon.
science and patriotism presents candidate
for the Presidency who is at once discarded
by great body of the Republicans as unfit
for the position, and the party is at once
called to defend its candidate as an honest
man.
1t is an issue, of course, which instantly
subordinates every other 1t Is useless to
consider policies and measures when the per-
sonal character and fitness of the candidate
are in question, and this not from the calum-
NOUS tongue of political opponents, but
from his own letters and from acknowledged
facts. And if, without further explanation
or justification, ifbya mere hurra, and appeal
to old party feelings and former good deeds
of the party, and by q contemptuous refusal TO
deal with the actual facts and significance of
the situation, the nomination should be rati-
fled at the polls, the Republican party would
have declared that the things which its can
dldate represents are those which it honors
and respects. The old Republican spirit
principle character, and purpose would then
seem TO many OF thestanchest old Republicans
to have disappeared. 1t is because they
honor the party, and have believed in it, that
they decline to acknowledge the Chicago can
didacy as one that should be supported. y
The party which deliberately selects such
candidate is not the party which the ex.
horters have in mind when they urge the
protestants to trust it. 1t is because they
have been the most earnest and devoted Re-
publicans that they protest. They do not
believe that the objects for which they have
been Republicans can be furthered by such a
candidacy. They hold that the old Repub.
lican party may survive the defeat of the
candidate, but that it could not survive his
election.
