THOSE WORTHLESS BONDS.

The attempt of a gang of Wall
street sharks to float lot of North
Carolina bonds on an easy public
will probably be frustrated. By
bringing suit in the name of Ne
vada against the state of North
Carolina the crooks who own the
bonds, having acquired them at a
nominal cost after the state of
North Carolina had repudiated
them, calculate to sell them to
suckers, one of whom is said to
be born every minute. A statute
passed by the legislature in 1901
permits the governor to accept
gifts to the state. The scoundrels
who are trying to work the worth
less bonds off on the state of Ne
vada have applied to the supreme
court for a writ of mandate to
compel the governor to accept them.
AS the bonds are utterly worthless
they could hardly come under the
head of a gift. The hearing on
the writ of mandamus took place
before the supreme court Monday.
