Charley Goodwin of the Salt Lake
Tribune puts it this way:
They call the man who sent the
$50 Confederate note to the Grant
monument committee, The cham
pion mean man." We do not think
80. We do not know Of a more
delicate compliment that the Geor-
gian could have paid the memory
of Grant-except that he had sent
a 800 note. These notes rated
about on a par with greenbacks
until Grant began to move imme-
diately on the enemy's works; with
every blow that he struck some
thing Of their virtue went out OF
the notes, until finally they reached
their real value Of 80 much per
pound at the paper mill. 1t was
Grant more than any who took the
starch out of the paper until it was
all gone, and then the world rea-
lized just how helplass paper is as
a medium Of exchange and re-
gulator of prices unless it has a
backing which is good collateral Sc
curity before mankind.

The opponents of silver coinage,
like the Satyr's guest in the fable,
blow hot and cold with the same
breath. They claim that the silver
dollar lacks weight and yet it is too
heavy. No man who ever earned
a silver dollar by hard labor was
known to complain of its weight.

Of the crumpled rose leaf.-Times-

The APPEAL is pleased to learn
that the boycotting of Mrs. O'Con
nell has been ordered stopped by
the Irish leaders. 1t was mis-
take to have begun it at all, and
placed the cause in a false light.
The Irish, the world over, have the
reputation of despising to make
war upon women. Again, she is a
relation of one of the greatest Irish
men that ever lived; Daniel O'Con-
nell, and the momory Of such a
name should live with her.

Sayler, with quite number of my old demo-

press themselves as very hopeful of success. 1t

"Well," responded Mr.. Sayler, somewhat hes

republicans will trade off their state ticket to

DENOUNCED As A FORGERY,
What Col. Lamont Says Of the ALLEGED
Letter Of the President to o Buffalo
Friend

Col. Lamont, upon being asked to-day about
the alleged letter of the President to a friend in
Buffalo endorsing the democratic state ticket
of New York, replied that IL any such letter
was extant it was a forgery. He said the Presi-
dent had not written any such letter, and such
an expression of his views would be unneces-
sary; that in the minds of sensible people 1t
would not be necessary for q democratic Presi-
dent to write q letter endorsing the demo-
cratic ticket of his own state.
The only utterance the President has made
on the subject was an answer which he dictated
to Col Lamont, his private secretary, to be
made to an inquiry sent him by q correspond
ent, and was as follows:
"The President is a democrat, and it is strange
that any person should question his position.
he earnestly desires the success of his party in
The pending elections in New York, as else
where, and any assertion to the contrary Is ut
terly and maliciouslY false"

The city Of Wheeling, w. Va, has q sensa-
ton cause by the bringing before meeting of
the city council OF charges and specifications OF
gross immortality against Jacob w. Grub,

Porter Smith, chief OF police. The trouble has
been brewing for several months past, and at
one time and another has involved the chief Of

men: The mayor, about the LIST OF May. began
TO charge the police force with fnefficiency,
chief Of police, having recently refused to dis
miss policemen against whom charges were
made, the mayor preferred charges before the
council covering the entire force. The council
referred the charges to the committee on police
which investigated the matter for two days at
the end of which time the police officer referred
TO resigned.
The IntcHigencer then charged the chief spe.
cifically with drunkenness and ipmorality.
and the committee was going on to investigate
but the council met last night in special session
and stopped the investigation. As the session
was about to adjourn member arose and pre-
Chief Of Police Smith. There was u large crowd
present, and the reading OF the charges pro
duced the widest excitement. The charges al
