THE MAIL AND COLO n Is L
ANDREWS.

Some weeks ago it was announced
that Col. Andrews would begin a
libel suit against the Stockton
Mail and Carson APPEAL. The
sne against the Mail was instituted
in the Superior Court Of San Fran
cisco, but no complaint was filed
against the APPEAL; probably be-
cause Of the difficulty of instituting
libel suit against the resident of
another State Wednesdays Nail
contains the following editorial
paragraph:
When the Mails San Francisco
correspondent related an episode
alleged to have occurred between
Colonel Andrews and Mrs. Emily
Pitt Stevens, in the formers dla-
mond palace, the proprietors OF the
paper never for a moment thought
of Questioning ti IT'S truth. The re-
sital pl.ced Colonel Andrews in
the light of q man deficient alike ip
philanthropy and gentility. But
it appears after careful investiga-
ton by US, that the correspondent
was mistaken as to the facts; that
his version of them was communl-
Gated to him by third party and
that a wrong had been unintentlon-
ally done to Colonel Andrews by
the Mail in the publication. In
pursuance of the uniform policy OF
this paper, never knowingly to in
fict an injury upon any person, the
proprietors of the Mail wrote tc
Colonel Andrews attorneys, MessrS
Horpblover & Dunand, csmmuni
eating to them in substance these
sentiments. The letter WAS delayed
Ia transmission and it was before
its receipt by Messrs. Hornbloue1
& Dunand that the suit was instl
tuted, Had it not been for thl:
delay the action would not have
been brought.
Naturally therefore, when there
was an understanding between The
parties the proceedings were
caused to be dismissed. We pub
fish these facts IN justice to all the
parties concerned, ourselves in
eluded.
The APPEAL publishes the above
in Justice to Col. Andrews. The
APPEAL quoted from the Mail II
its article on Col. Andrews, consld
ering 1t good authority. AS tn
Mail has now done the decen
thing by the Colonel, the APPEAL
in Justice to all parties. desires t.
place itself on record as having
done the same.

MEDICINE AND PRINTING

There is certain class of GROWERS
in this city who lie awake nights to
think of some new way of finding
fault with the county printing, and
the county medical attendance.
The main thing that troubles
these unfortunate people is that
the County Commissioners desire
first-cIass work in both cases for
their money.
There are parties who would, to-
morrow, be willing to make a con-
tract with the county to do all Its
printing and advertising for the
cost of the blank paper, and on the
same principle the medical attend
ance for the county could be Sc
cured for the cost Of the medicine.
As a commercial rule 1t has been
pretty we'll established that work
which is low in price is not special
" high in quality, and it is not
business sense to employ a man
simply because he is cheap. If:
however, there has been any fraud
no matter how small, in the coun ty
printing or in the county medical
attendance, it is the duty of the
District Attorney to bring the mat
ter into the Courts, where the Diff
ference between irresponsible glib
bering and sworn testimony, could
be quickly established.

it cannot distinguish between a

hire some good, reliable police de-
tectiyes to hunt up the antecedents
of titled people from abroad, before
admitting them to the upper cir

and began 10 use home remedies on his
wounded leg. The buckshot all lodged in

day TO day, until it became ap-

he would die. Monday physicians
reached his house. Immediate amputa-

teresting relic in the shape OF safe that
was being removed into the Office of
George ). Obear, 144 Second street. The
safe was venerable in appearance, and
probably if 1t could speak would tell an
interesting story. IL WAS brought TO this
city in 1885 or 1896, and was used by the
old State bank during the administration
of Gen. W. 5. Holt and Mai. J. II. II.

lished IN Savannah, and subsequently
located an agency here TO facilitate its
transactions with the merchants Of this
city who carried on a large business with
the institution. When the war came
along the bank was swept away. together
with other local enterprises. The safe
WAS afterwards sold at auction and was
purchased by M. Obsar for nominal
sun. IL has been Ia his possession ever
since. The old safe presents quite a con-
trast to the improved elegant ONES Of the
present day, but was the best made In It's
time. 10 was then considered both fire
aud burglar proof.
W. NJ. Scot, a merchant OF Atlanta,
purchased bill Of goods Of Dunham,

over the bill ensued aud was carried ints

Durham, Buckley & Co., sued out an at
tachment against him for the full amount
OF the bill. Si5i This fact was
made public through business
agencies and New York papers and
caused Mr.. Scott considerable embarrass-
ment and trouble IA making his purchases.

 "Allow me to introduce Colonel Wat son, known to you as Gold Pete" He owns fifteen hundred acres of land in this neighborhood, and is the president of the White River Packet company. These other gentlemen are employed on the snag boat. and am Captain Hinklin, at your service"
 The whole thing was a joke, in which the revenue collector was interested. We'll, had a good time on the snag boat, and after all, the government lost more than would have been lost had been hanged.
