MORNING. APPEAL
WEDNESDAY,. NOVEMBER 4
STILL HERE.

LIIUOl DdNl5, vi tllc aI1EaII, HIS
gone to San Francisco to write for
the Chronicle.
The above paragra oh appears in
the News. 1t is made out OF whole
cloth. Probably the wish was
father to the thought, and this is
why the item appeared.
The person writing tie item
knew at the time he wrote it that
there was absolutely no truth in
the statement.
While about it we might as we'll
give the public some OF the inside
history Of our morning contem-
porary.
Some months ago the APPEAL
announced that it would never
again support for office embez-
zlers, fraudulent bankrupts or
petty larceny thieves.
An attempt had been made to
shove one OF the classes of men
on us to support and we declined,
deeming that the man had already
done enough dirty work and made
enough dishonest money out OF it
to entitle him to retire.
An attempt was made to force
the APPEAL into line, but it couldn't
be forced.
After that the well known rape
case came to the surface and we
were notified that the APPEAL
must keep quiet or sit might not
be we'll for it."
Every effort was made to keep
this affair out OF the columns OF
tho APPEAL. We considered il
disgrace TO journalism for any pa
per to oondone such a fragrant Of
Tense 10y its silence, and the crime
was exposed and denounced in
these columns.
We could see no reason why
such a thing should be hushed up,
simply because the parties desir-
ing it to be kept quiet, wanted it
that way; people who for years
have held no mans, woman's or
child's name free from contumely
in Carson, and who have made
the wrecking of character a pas
time.
These parties brought all sorts
of "strings" to bear. and by threats,
intimidation, money and "pulls"
hypnotized whom they pleased,
muzzled newspapers and corrupt
ed justice.
Finding themselves unable to
muzzle the APPEAL they laid their |
heads together to destroy it, and |
selecting as a figure head a young
ster who was formerly employed |
in this office, they have backed |
him with money and launched him |
on the sea of Carson journalism. |
They did not think they could |
wipe out the APPEAL. for they were
confronted with the experience OF |
too many failures in that direc-
ton. They proposed to make all |
advertising and subscription half
price. anl by cutting the rates |
cripple the APPEAL.
Recently party who claimed to |
have authority to negotiate, offered |
to lease the APPEAL for term o: |
years, at the same time guarantee
ing that the News would suspend |
publication the day the APPEAL |
WAS leased, otherwise a new cylin- |
der press was to be shipped from |
San Francisco, the News was to |
take dispatches AMI obliterate the |
APPEAL from the face OF the earth. |
Such an offer was OF course de- |
clined, The APPEAL is neither for |
sale or lease, nor is it's proprietor |
contemplating a removal to San
Francisco or elsewhere.
The fact that there is one insti- |
tuition in this city not controlled |
by that gang is where the shoe !
pinches, and it will pinch good |
deal harder before they get |
through with 1t.
They may have some good |
"pulls" in several directions, but
thew have none here. and the mat
