Ormsby's Money All Right.

1t is now shown, says the Carson Tri'
bune, that the estate OF James Fraser, the
late Treasurer Of Ormsby county, is per
iectlv solvent and the assets amount to al
least $500. These assets consist Of per
sonal effects, stock and promissory notes,
most Of which are perfectly good. The
deficiency in the county fund will amount
TO nearly 81 900 and Of course be made
good from these assets. 1t will be seen
therefore. that Mr.. Fraser used county
money when he needed ready cash, and
was able TO make it good in cash when IL
was necessary. and, had he not died sud
denly, the money would have been forth
coming at the proper time.

The LATE President Garfield was not only
a member of lhs Golden Free Trade Club OF
England, but is on record as saying that
every man who came before the Ways and
Means Committee of the Q. S. House of
Representatives ofwhich he was member)
to get protective taxes put on or increased,
came in the barest selishness, without a
thought or care except to get higher prices
for his own wares from his own country
men," That every word of this is true
is known to every body at all familiar with
the business of the House Ways and Means
Com mittee. And yet the protected monop
olists, who have grown rich by their ex-
actions from the rest of the people of the
country, attempt to deceive the working
men with the cry that protective tariff en-
hsnces the price of labor. The protective
tariff has now been in operation for quarter
of century. Do the wages working men
are now receiving show them that it has en-
HANGED the price of their labor?
