December JGh, 1881.
Dear Sir: In view Of the recent decision of the
Supreme Court, l think it proper to advise you of
what propose to do in the future.
wish to inform every one who has bought cou.
pons with my guaranty, that the guaranty will be
acted up TO- to the letter. so loug as those who
purchased the coupons stand up TO their side of
the contract. They agree to tender coupons for
their taxes and agree to save them harmless l
desire that every person who has rendered cou
pons will disregard the threats of the States OH
GERS OF suit arrest or other mOlestatiCn.
ii suits are brought against them under what Is
popularity known as the coupon crusher," they
should disregard the suit aud pay no attention to
it. Let judgment 20 against them by default. If
the sheriff comes TO them with an execution for
the judgment let them tender to him the exact
amount of what he claims in coupons, or IN cou-
pons aud currency. II he refuses the tender and
evies and sels, let them buy in their property at
the sale and report the facts to me. Will at once
have suit instituted in the United States Court for
damages for the sale. I must insist that all pur-
chasers Of coupons with my guaranty shall stand
ND to their side Of the contract of indemnity as
shall stand up to mine.
Note this.-If the tax before the suit was $50,
and the x-payer had rendered $50 coupons, and
the costs of the suit under the Coupon Crusher
had been SIS, let him tender the shoriff who has
the execution two $50 coupons and SIS in money;
or the figures and proportions to suit any case.
Some persons think that the recent decision OF
the Supreme Court has destroyed the right of par
ties to stand Il fender OF coupons and recover
damages from States officer who undertakes TO in
terfere with that right. 1t has done such thing
but has expressly affirmed it. 1t has left our
right to recover damages from any States officer
who molests US in any way after a tender OF cou-
pons, just rs it was before

The custom among business firms of
following their patrons to different re-
sorts is gaining rapidly. Dress goods and
imported costumes are now exhibited in
hotel parlors; embroidery and all devices
in fancy work are spread upon hotel
tables, and the city dealer in fancy wares
has become a dangerous rival to Indians
with their stock of gay baskets. 1t is
said that modistes sometimes follow de-
