Times Have Changed.

Col H. G. Shaw. some years ago
the editor OF the Enterprise, was the
founder OF the Creedmore target
range rifle practice which OF late years
has been so much in vogue all over the
Union.
His efforts to inaugurate a system
which would bring the army to a high
state of efficiency with the rifle. were
met with SO much opposition in army
circles that he finally resigned in dis
gust and General Plume, in accepting
his resignation, wrote across the same
that he considered Colonel Shaw's re-
tircment from the army the best thing
that could happen to it, This was sc
years ago and about a week ago Shaw
called on the Genera in Newark and
demanded an apology to be writer
under the language he had used in &C
Certing the resignation.
The request was promptly compiled

The MIDWAY CONTRACT.
It Proved a Profit And Was
the Leading Attraction of
the Carnival.

On behalf of the Publicity and Pro-
motion Committee, the Appeal pub
fishes a few figures relative to the
Midway contract. Many people are
still claiming that it was the most reck-
less piece o! extravaganza to pay the
twelve Midway attractions the sum OF
5000.
Let the figures speak for themselves.
The percentage returned by the Mid
way, on basis OF IS per cent amount
ed to 1888, The concessions let along
the Midway, S252.
The large. illustrated bill posting
which was put up in all the towns in
tie vicinity Of Carson cost the Mid
way people over $500 and they also
paid the printing bills and express
charges on colored printing already
ordered by the Committee, amounting
to nearly $40
They got theatrical discounts on the
posters. The same posters would
have cost the Committee $40, beside
the cost OF posting them.
Out OF the 5000 paid the Midway
people the Committee got back in the
way mentioned, over $1,000.
The county also ral,2d in $225 for
