A Doubling Thomas.

The last issue of the Deeth Tidings
has the following.
Next week all the editors Of Elko
county and their wives chose of them
who are fortunate enough to have
wives will go on the excursion Of the
Press Association to various points in
California. 1t will be a grand trip for
We editors. 1t is a good thing that
so few Of the editors on a trip like this
are good Templars, because they will
be severely tested in the land where
wine flows like water in Oregon. May
God protect the editors, who have a
weakness in that line.
This gives the editor of the Indepen-
dent an excuse to lecture the Tidings
as follows.
1t will be a pleasing duty for those
who are not Good Templars to watch
those who are and return then to their
homes in all their native purity, I'M
defiiled by the communicating touch Of
the wine of California that flows like
water in Oregon" The writer Of the
Tidings squib "a have but little faith
in his brother editors who are Good
Templars or he would have certainly
wished that all the editors of the
State were members Of that organ
izatiOn.
We imagine hat Brother Booher
has never tackled a Press excursion
through California. If he returns to
his home in all his native purity he
is a better man than most of US.
Never boast before you get out of
the woods Brother Booher. You don
know what is before you.

The MORNING APPEAL.
Q ne of a Thousand.

Yesterday the Editor of the APPEAL
received a letter from Ralph Clyde
who is connected with a neweboys
paper in Portland Oregon. He said
that he left the Midwinter Fair owing
us a small sum Of r.onev and wished
to know if we were in Carson hat he
might remit it.
The writer recalled the fact that
was a bright young lad who ped
died the Midwinter Appeal about the
Fair Grounds from the 40 Camp and
who when the Fair closed owed the
paper prehaps s.. Before he left he ex-
planned hat his mother had been sick
and in consequence he was unable to
settle. He said as soOn as he could
spare the money he would pay it
We believed him as he talked about
his debt which seemed to annoy him
He dropped out Of sight and memory
and after two years he is hunting an
opportunity to pay the old debt. Hon
esty like this in a boy who has run
loose in the streets OF San Franclsc"
from childhood is rare indeed and
worth a passing notice. His mother,
whose health he looked after so care
fully, must have been responsible for
bis ideas regarding the responsibilities
Of personal Indebtedness, and the
least we could DO was to write him
and tell him t, send the money to his
mother. Such a boy will make his
mark some time as one worthy of
trust. We wish we could say as much
of some Of the nell we encountered in
business at the Mid-winter Fair. Most
of th,m were plain ordinary thieves.

The Bees Libel Case.

The Sacramento Bee has appealed
from the decision OF Judge Catlin, in
the Gilman libel case, to the Supreme
Court in banc. The case is of general
interest as this decision will decide as
to whether the law allows newspapers
to publish a complaint that has been
made and sworn to, and a warrant
has been issued thereon for the arrest
of the person charged with a felony.

The Carson daily APPEAL passed its
49th, mile stone last Saturday, which
means nearly a quarter of a century
of usefulness. May its shadow never
grow less.-Downieville Enter prise.
That fearless paper-the APPEAL
has turned another volume. 1t will
spend the rest of its life trying to pur-
ify this community Carson Weekly.
The Weekly is slightly in error.
We are not endeavoring to purify the
community, The Carson community
is all right, as it is, and will size up
f%avorably with any other. The AP-
PEAL is only endeavoring to see that
no individual in the community is
any better than anyotheI in the sight
of the law.
