Now few words more about Tau
rus Zanghiskhan whose horns are espe.
clally the subject of these remarks -
Zanghlskhan was a bovine of remarka-
bic beauty, and was thirteen years old
when captured, and as black and shiny
as the blacklist Ethiopian. His phys-
lcal proportions were simply enormous:
his weight could not be definitely as
certained but if twas in proportion to
his horns it must not have exceeded two
ton. His tail was in proportion to his
corporeal dimensions, and situated at
the posterlOr extremity of his spinal
column exactly like all other animals.
His feet and ears require no special
mention as they bore the proper pro-
portions to the size and beauty of the
animal.
This representation is all that is
known of these horns either real, his
torlcal, traditional mythical, OR imagin-
airy. All who are curious to know
more of this subject can apply to Bill

THE GOLD LEAF tries to be honest
and fair in its dealings with all men
and measures. While it is called
upon from a sense of public duty some
times TO take stand that may not be
popular with some, it has no words of
abuse for any one. That is not our
style. If we cannot appeal to reason
and argue a thing out in a sensible,
fair minded way we are not going to
heap abuse upon any one to carry our
point. That is the weapon Of those
who have no case or who have not the
courage or the ability to successfully

An indignant subscriber met us on

There are not two more honest and
fair minded papers in the State than
