FOOLS AND THEIR MONEY.

1t is a mystery to a good many people,
says the Carson Appeal, how it was that
SO many Virginia investors put their
money into the hands of such a con.
scienceless gang as the Frankels, when
there were two solid, responsible banks
in Virginia City, where they might have
dealt with perfect security. The Frank.
els came to Virginia City in 1862 with
comparatively little money and managed
to amass a million or so. They never
assisted in developing the county; were
never engaged in any public enterprise,
and never risked anything, but just got
in q dingy little Office and exacted toll
of everybody. They were the leeches
sucking the blood of toll.
II is surmised that before the failure
they managed to salt away about Q
quarter Of a million. Probably they
did: this sort of people generally do
But the main fault lies with the people
who will place so much confidence in
men who have craft, greed and cunning
written all over their faces. Over and
over again Virginia City has received it,
sharp lessons from the oily, sleek rascals
who run rotten bucket shops under the
guise of solid commercial institutions.
Not many years ago a scallawag named
Shawan played the same dodge on the
people of the Comstock and skipped out,
The Grand Jury indicted him, but he
was never tried, and to-day is living
comfortably in California. Some ex'
ample should be made OF such swindlers,
and instead of living high in California
ON stolen money they should be cracking
rock at the Carson penitentiary.

since 1848 has been pouring q steady

or store here and mont to be had. Build.
ing is going on rapidly and ell seem to

strikes hayo been made lately and pros.
pectors are hunting the hills far and near

strikes are reported in the Badger. Col.

WHAT Is III WORTH

The Virginia City Footlight says
twelve hundred shares of Phil. Sheridan
stock was sold in last Wednesdays stock
board for ninety cents per share.
The Phil. Sheridan depression in the
earth's surface is inclosed by a few gas
pipes stuck in the ground around the
hole and connected with wire to keep
COWS from falling in.
T~wenty.six hundred shares of Lady
Washington stock was sold in the same
board for 81 per share. That mine has
been stripped like the Phil Sheridan for
years.
Now the truth might as well be told
about these things. We have laws to
punish all manner of thefts, 'counterfeits
and obtaining money under false pre-.
tense. Our courts ON this Coast are
crowded with criminal business, which
is alleged to be conducted in the interest
of honest principles, good government
and to protect the sacred rights OF prop.
erty, yet here we find the men who
preach these beautiful little sentiments,
and who damn Communists far and
wide, engaged in covering up dirty
frauds and swindles, and are therefore
particeps crimini.
True, people who buy such securities
() do so on their own responsibility, for
they may not be directly solicited to
buy. But in our humble opinion the law
that will exert itself to sit down on and
squelch the c~allous mind of him who
steals q loaf Of bread, and look uncon.
cerncdly upon those who take the money
of poor, unsophisticated dupes and gives
such securities as a guild pro quo, is not
entitled to respect, and property &C.
quired in such manner should be made
by some moral urgency law to revert to
the State as community property.
Respect for law under the general
belief that it is exerted for the good oil
mdukl1u Is tuC CukoO Va viz 1
Nothing should be respected that is not
entitled to respect. Is prostitution en-
titled to respect? Is the fact not motto.
rious that the law is prostituted for the
ignominious purpose of making the rich
richer and the poor poorer every day of
our existence? Then, plainly, respect
for the law is the curse of the world.
Respect nothing but that which is re-
spectacle, and we will soon have a re.
spectacle law. Be assured that no man
who gathers honestly acquired money by
su,h means as has any respect for law;
SO out of 100 who respect and obey the
law are poor; SO out of 100 who are rich
disrespect the law.

Stacks in Now York.

New YORK, Dec. S.-The boom in
mining shares this morning suffered
no hindrance because of the San

the market in numerous directions

heavy trading, on the reports that the
stock was selling in San Francisco at
one dollar. In the afternoon shares
were a shade lower, and the demand
was much lighter. An unfounded
rumor was made that Con. Cal. d

Tie Money YaIne OF Women.

For every man who lives sin
gle life, caring only for himself,
there Is some woman who is de-
privcd of her natural supporter"
says Henry George.
1t Is ii cool ana unwarranted as
sumption on the part of society
that wives are supported by their
husbands. Th; persons who as
snne. ...,slis will seldom deny that
wives usually work as many hours
n day as their husbands, and fire
qnentiy more. '.Bnt then" they
will say. .the wife's labor is unpro-
ductive; it has no money value"
Sncb a position needs no very
close analysis to prove its utter Alb
Surdity. Let tie wife fall sick, ami
it is Immediately discovered that
her labor has money value, for it
takes money to hire help TO take
her place in the household. To
take her place did Isay! But who
can take her place. The wife'S la
Dor is not unmoducfiye. 1t is nee
eSSary to cut and sew cloth into
garments as it is TO produce the
material of which it is made or to
weave that material into cloth. 1t
is as necessary that food be cooked
as HAT it be provided in readiness
for cooking. A housekeeper is rs
essential as a house builder.
1t is not a supporter" that Il
self respecting woman asks for i'll
society, but justice-eQnal pay for
equal work.-ludustrial Appeal.
