FIFTY SHARES OF OPHIR.
How a Thief Was Caught and Then Coz


fessed.
Last Thursday Mrs. B. F. Graves had oc-
caSion to step out upon the rear porch of the
Mansion House, where she resides. She left
her satchel temporarily while she went about
performing some household duty, and when
she returned it was gone, and with it a GER
tificate for fifty shares of Ophir which it con-
tanned. The thief hurried to San Francisco
and on Saturday morning the stock was sold
for account of J. j. Murphy, by broker.
Murphy received $50 on account of the sale,
leaving about $50 unpaid. He hurried back
to Sacramento, but in the meantime the San
Francisco Secretary of the Ophir Mining
Company had been notified to refuse to
transfer the STOCK, and when the broker as
certained that transfer had been stopped he
naturally kept one eye out for the man who
had brought it to him. After his return here
the man went back to San Francisco to get
the balance due on account of the sale and
he was arrested. He admits that his true
name is not Murphy, but f. Ii. Mayhem.
He says that he found the certificate in
hallway of the Mansion House. After his
arrest Mayhem dsgorged $50 of the plumber.
Mrs. Graves has gone to San Francisco to
idntify the stock, and Mayhem will proba-
by pass some years i'll secluded place
where he will be out of temptation. He
says that he is a sign-painter by trade.
Mayhem has always claimed to his friends
to be brother of Kitty Mayhem. the we'll

trade balances, and the general pros
perity, and he submits figures relat-
ing to our trade which prove that 1t
has had no injurious effects on bust
ness, but rather that the volume OF
business, has increased. As for the
recent disturbances i'll the money
market, he shows that their origin
in London was not connected with
similar causes here; that the. effect
is only temporary one, and that 1t
will not withstand "the strong, safe
and wholesome influences which are
operating to give the people protlta-
Bile returns in all branches of legltl-
mate trade and industry" The
President also dwells with some
satisfaction, If not Exultation, on the
foreign outcry against the Tariff act
as justification of its wisdom for us.
He then enters into a dissertation on
the benefits of taking advantage inn
mediately of the reciprocity clauses
the McKinly law, by which he may,
in return for the free admission OF
tea, coffee, sugar and hides, "openfor-
eign markets especially for our farm
products" This part of the message
follows evidently the suggestions OF
the Secretary of State on this tavo-
rite object of his policy and will be

THE TRUTH MAY NOW BE
TOLD.
Virginia's Leading Democratic journal
Calls a Halt on Champaign Lying

The Petersburg (Va.) Mder-AppGaI
makes this frank and unblushing ac-
acknowledgement of the deception practised
upon the country by its party in order to
mislead and influence the voters in the
recent elections. Hear it {:
The congressional campaign of 1890
has been fought and won by the Demo-
cratic party, and the country rejOices
over the result. In that campaign, as in
every political campaign. many things
were said and done in partisan interests
that could hardly be justified by any
standard of morals short of the old
maxim that everything is fairin war ard
politics. The exi gency, however. for this
questionable method of warfare is now
past, and it is high time to give quietus
to the campaign lie, of which such etfec-
tive use has already been made, that all
the necessaries of life have been inCt rs.
ed by the new tariff bill. No paper can
longer Justify itself, even on the ground
of partisan service, for giving circulation
to this falsehood, and the papers that
continue to publish such indefensible
statements simply make themselves allies
of spectators and extortionists and are
enemies of the great consuming mass of
the people.
This paper not only admits the lie, but
declares that it and other Democratic
Journals made themselves 'allies Of
spectators and extortionist, and enemies
of the great consuming mass of the
people," in order to elect a Democratic
Congress.
