The Arlington House.

The Arlington is still under boy
colt and Judge Cary seems tc
think that he is being made the
subject of a malicious persecution
He never was so mistaken in his
life. Both himself and his esteemed
wife have hoste of warm friend S
in this community who sincerely
regret the turn affairs have taken
regarding the hotel. The boarders
who have left his house, never re-
eeived any orders from the League
but felt that after signing the
pledge they did it more as matter Of
principle to discountenance Chinese
labor in all its forms. A white
cook in Judge Cary's kitchen will
in twenty four hours bring him
back all the business he has
lost.

The bilious Attack

A man called at the APPEAL Of.
fee the other day, and in a patron
izing way, as if he was giving the
paper large, fat news item, ia
formed the city editor that GER
tain State official had just recovered
from his bilious attack" Now
this paper has wearied of writing
up the periodical sprees of officials
as bilious attacks" They are
simple, plain DRINKS, and when a
Policeman or Constable sees an Of
fetal on the street in such a condi-
ton he should proceed to arrest
him. Under the law an official has
no more right to get drunk than
the huHblest citizen. Drunken
ness is common to officials all over
Nevada, and some time an i'm
parchment trial will determine Just
how far a bilious attack incapaci-
tates a nan for Office holding.

MiSt0Ok the Figure.

Last evening a queer old coor
came into the Opera House saleor
and leaning over the bar Whispered
to Gillhooley:
Say old boy, can you tell me
where the balance of these editor!
hang out? The tariff for lickin
editors is down to my figures, aud
guess I'll chaw up a few"
ats a trife expensive | think,
was the reply.
Expense? Lord! you must love
money. Do you cal! a dollar and
twenty-five cents high?'
A shout of laughter shook the
Room, in which Gill was compelled
to join, but he found the presence
Of mind to answer:
1T is cheap; dirt cheap. There s
one over across the street now; go
and jump him, and Iii pay the dol
lar and quarter"
The man went out unmindful Of
the fact that he had placed the
decimal in the wrong place.

Sudden Changes.

If the body receives daily a
proper amount Of nutrition, and
daily expels the WORKOUT parts,
health is the certain consequence;
but by sudden change of weather,
the pores of the skin may not per-
form their Office well, and matters
are, retained which should have
passed off by that avenue. All
causes which impede insensibie
perspiration are fraught with dan
ger, because matters which should
haya passed awaxxthpongh the skin

they may come, curing pain, infa-
nation and colds arising from
above cause in a few hours.

The Papers Made Out.

Yesterday it was the talk on the
streets that several parties con
nected with the anti-Chinese
movement were to be arrested fo1
conspiracy. H. S. Mason, Dr.
Herrick, J. A. Leete and the edi-
tor Of the APPEAL were. the par
ties who were to be arrested
Last night it was reported that
the U. S. District Attorney had
been asked TO do this by the
Chinese merchants, and that he
had forwarded the papers by mail
to Garland at Washington, for
advice. The mail is no good, Cof-
fin, you can only get the ear Of
Garland through the Bell tele-
phone.

Recently the State has made sew.
eral carpet purchases for the Capt.
tol building. Let us see, and note
down for future reference, who are
the State officers who want the
States money to be spent among
the taxpayers or sent to San Fran
cisco.
A carpet for the Lieutenant Gov
ernors Office was ordered purchased
Of NJ. Cohn. Charlie Laughton
did this. Surveyor General Preb-
lie ordered one for his Office of NJ
Cohn. The carpet for the Supreme
Courtroom was ordered in San
Francisco, and no Carson merchant
was allowed to make commission
Lieutenant Governor Laughton
states that the carpet was ordered
by Hallock and Davenport without
his knowledge. The APPEAL has
frequently called attention to the
habit State officials have of getting
their votes in Nevada and the
State supplies in California.
1t is bad business principle,
and the State officers who persist
in doing this should be retired and
allowed to 90 to the Golden State
they like so we'll and do business
all the while with Californians.
After the Chinese are rooted out it
will then be just the time to begin
to turn attention to another class,
who also drain the State Of money.
Let these men, Que and all, get
their nominations and their votes
in the sections where they spend
their money.

THE SPRINGS BOYCOTTED
Foregoing the Luxury of hot
Baths for the Cause.

/ L AS6OA"S AS
Baths for the Cause.
| On Sunday, usually heavy
business day with the Hot Springs
| wagon, there was scarcely any trave
| there at all, and before noon it was
known that many who had been old
customers of Shaw's had decided to
stay away until there was white
cook in the kitchen. Yesterday an
APPEAL reporter called at the
Springs and interviewed Shaw.
I've been hit pretty hard to day
said Shaw but | don't blame any
body. [ believe in the Anti Chinese
League, and [ believe in its prin-
ciples. [ have always believed in
boycotting men who kept Cinnamon
and now [ am getting a dose of
the medicine | blame no one. |
would like to explain however
through the APPEAL exactly my
position. 1t has been my own bad
luck and not any feeling for the
Chinese. [ expected certainly to
have a white cook by the first, but
one that had been promised me
failed to connect. Last night |
telegraphed my sister IN California
to come up here and cook unit. I
could secure professional white
cook. | have sixteen people here
boarding and most OF them are
invalids. They must have grub
and it is a question of humanity.
But I'll have the Chinese cook
shipped in a day or so. you can
depend on that. Meanwhile |
hope the boys will not be too hard
on me as | am doing my best. How,
ever if they.propose to keep up the
boycott, I've no fault to find with
any of them for if the League don t
show its strength there might as
we'll be no League at all

The Laundry Machinery Arrive.


The balance of the Laundry Ma
chinery, all except one piece, ar
rived yesterday and was quite al
object of curiosity all day. The
mangler and centrifugal wringer at
racted the most attention. They
are the latest improvement in wash.
ing machinery, and it will do more
in five minutes than one-horse
Chinese wash-house will do ia a
week. Several pro-Chinese citizens
who inspected them remarked: by
thunder. this begins to look like
business, and no mistake.
All day long the Chinese gath
cred on the opposite side Of the
street watching the work, and they
also begin to realize that it was
business and no mistake.
The Laundry is full of artisans
and mechanics busy at work and
each department rivalling the other
to see who can work the fastest.
The washer is expected daily and
after that it will take but a few days
to have everything in running
order. There is still a small debt
on the Laundry and we suggest that
a ball or musical entertainment be
given to raise the money. At least
5000 ought to be reised by this pro-
cess.
