MORNING APPEAL.
Till RSDAY.
..OCTOBER 18. 1877
WHAT WE
II AVE BEEN
SAY.
TRYING TO
The Morning Atpeal has been subjected
to some criticism for its course toward Pres
ident Hayes and his policy. Somehow, in
our desire to express the objections that are
in us we have fallen short of what we wanted
to express. We guess we have been too
"mad" to be clear. But we have found
something which does express wflat we feel.
Strangely enough it is in tlitf Danbury News.
It is from the pen of Goldsmith, of the New
York Herald who corresponds with the News.
Here it is : " For a moment, on my own re
sponsibility, without any other backing by
the Danbury News than the editor's compli
ment in printing what I write, let me say this:
That when Mr. Hayes became President of
the United States he was made such by the
Republican party, which took a great deal of
trouble, and which acquired great odium
therefor. Mr. Hayes was not popularly
elected. lie was a made President; a cooper-ed-up
affair. In his individuality he had a
right to rise above all mean and corrupt con
siderations. But Mr. Hayes immediately
disregarded everything that Grant has done ;
ungenerously snubbed lie leader of the Re
publican' part', and every lieutenant of that
body, thus giving forth to the world the im
pression that he, finding no good in that lead
er and those lieutenants considered tliem bad
Thus Mr. Hayes began the fight, and no one
of tho ansels, Curtis, Bowles, Nordhoff, has
said one word for the old regime. The senti
ment of men who had fought in the old days
' when romance and enthusiasm made glory
for the party was brought down to the rule
of three. To be sure England glorified Grant;
but Hayes dropped him like a hot potato.
Ana any man who remembered Orant was
spoken to insultingly, and village school-boys
from Ohio were placed in a position of trust,
not because they were known to be any better
than the followers of Grant, but because
they were namby-pamby and new. Mr.
Hayes began to fight by turning a New
Yorker out of the New York custom
house and putting an Ohio man in. He turned
a man out of the Chicago custom-house and
put an Ohio man in. He sent his local edi
tor, Comly, to the Sandwich Islands, and his
nominator, Noyes, to France. He decimated
Ohio in order to find lisping mannikins to fill
offices in the name of Civil-Service Reform.
In every way he disregarded every appoint
ment that had been made by General Grant.
Thus he insulted the great soldier and he
disgusted the old enthusiasts of the Repub
lican party. He cooed over the rebel 3-ell,
and he had never a word of compliment to
pay to the men who sat down and dug trenches
at Yicksburg. He spent his time in making
insipid speeches in which he daily told the
people the condition of the President's liver,
the condition of the Postmaster-General's kid
neys, the condition of Mrs. Hayes' peripa
tetic spine. He sucked his booby thumbs
in sight of school-girls in pinafores, and made
a sugar-teat of his Presidential position.
Mind, I am not criticising any policy of de
cency towards the South. I have lived there
and known its people, and I like them. Mr.
Hayes policy is not new. It is the puerile
manner in which he puts it to which I object.
He could have satisfied the material prosper
ity of the South without insulting Grant in
the North. If he could not, then the South
ought not to be satisfied. It is because
Hayes is intellectually small that I object to
his arrogance. As the old gentlemen said
"I dont object to being run over; but the
idea of being run over by a pedler. "
HARLAN
NOMINATED TO
PREME BENCH
THE SU-
The dispatches state that General Harlan of
Kentucky has been nominated to the Supreme
Bench by the resignation of Mr. Justice Davis.
Harlan is a man of very large physical pro
portions a big rawboned Kentuckian, in fact.
He was Bristow's special, friend and fugleman
at Cincinnati. But we are never, not even in
this instance, to have our pleasure wholly
unmixed with pain. The following heart
rending story reaches us:
Chicago, October 17. A Times Washington
special says that a warm friend of Bristow's
says that Harlan's appointment as Supreme
Judge would be a disgraceful one, as it would
be the result of lying, intrigue and the dis
honest betrayal of a friend who has never
been aught but the kindest man to General
Harlan. The correspondent then says that
Harlan has given the President to understand
through friends, that Bristow would not ac
cept the position himself, but personally de
sired Harlan's appointment. By these repre
sentations Bristow has been grossly betrayed,
but has been prevented by pride from unveil
ing Harlan's duplicity.
Poor Bristow! By and by he will know
how it is himself.
TOPIER DISCHARGED.
By Monday's Reveille we are informed as
follows: The examination of Topier for the
killing of R. C Allen was concluded last Sat
urday night about 8 o'clock and resulted in
the discharge of the prisoner, the evidence
all establishing conclusively that he acted in
self-defense. The evening session of the
Court was held in the District Court-room, in
order to accommodate the large crowd of
spectators, and the announcement of the
decision discharging Topier was received with
applause. We have never known of a case in
which one man killed another wjiere public
sentiment was so unanimous in favor of the
accused and so strongly against the man
killed as in this. Allen's death is a cause of
public rejoicing, and there cannot be found
in Lander county one human being who re
grets his death. It is a terrible thing and
may seem cruel to rejoice in the death of a
fellow creature, but when a man transforms
himself into a wild beast and makes himself a
a terror to ms neighbors he is not ht to Jive,
and his death' is looked upon as a blessing,
tfie same as if a mad dog or a rattlesnake or
any other creature that preys on human life
had been killed. As showing the feeling in
regard to Allen in the locality where he
resided, we are told by a gentleman who was
a witness m the case and who resides in
Smith Creek valley, that when the Indians
held a fandango, to rejoice over Allen's death
the white women said they felt as if they
would like to join in the dance. It must be
a uau and dangerous man over whose death
women rejoice and children clap their hands,
as we are intormed was the case in this
instance.
Hoisting Works Burned. The Belmont
Courier has the following account of the burn
ing of the hoisting works of the Eldorado
South: This morning at 1 o'clock the hoist
ing works of the Eldorado South mine took
fire from the bursting of a coal oil lamp and
burned to the around in fifteen minutes. We
learn from the Superintendent that the en
gines are but slightly damaged. The fire ex
tended down the shaft only five sets of tim
bers. The Company's mill only 100 yards
distant caught on fire several times but was
extinguished without any damage. About
100 cords of wood were also burned. Work
men are clearing away the derbris ready for
repairs, etc. , and we are assured that the
works will be rebuilt and hoisting will be re
sumed inside of ten days.
The sentence of Joe Coburn to ten years in
the State Prison of New York has been af
firmed by the Court of Appeals. Joe shot at .
a policeman one night last February. He can
be spared.

Of a valiant horsemen who defended him
self and his personal effects from some foot
pads the Eureka Sentinel of October 16 says
a Deiatea norseman, tvno naa passed a
pleasant evening visiting some lady friends
on Ruby Hill, and was quietly wending his
way Eurekaward, cogitating on his delight
ful visit and wishing Sunday evenings would
occnr more frequently, was aroused from his
meditations as he reached the canyon at the
base of Cariboo Hill by a sharp demand to
halt. He glanced into the gloom and espied
two men on either side of the road, and both
reiterated the request in the sharpest of tones.
Our traveler had by this time managed to draw
his pistol, and without waiting for any further
commands he shot at the man nearest to him.
The report scared his horse and the animal
ran away down the road, the highwaymen fir
ing four times at him before he got out of
range. One of the pistol balls gave him a
pretty close call, cutting through his coat
and grazing his arm, but the balance flew
wide of the mark. Theron says that Sunday
evening courting is very nice, but he don't
want any more road incidents of the above
character to wind up the visit.
What the Islands of the Sea are doinsr for
themselves down in the pleasant waters of the
warm Pacific, the San Francisco Post of Mon
day tells us as follows : "Captain Hall, of the
bark Coloma, which arrived from Baker's Is
land, one of the Guano group, yesterday,
thirty-three days out, reports that the buoys
at the island sank on June 4th, and have not
been seen since. After being about
lands for twenty-seven days, Captain nail
concluded to come to this port. He also re
ports a strong current setting to the eastward,
where it formerly set westward. Baker's Is
land had been visited with heavy rains and
had been completely flooded. The once bar
ren island is now covered with vegetation.
Some pumpkin seed that were scattered in
different parts of the island had taken root
and grown to large vines, bearing pumpkins.
Other parts of the island were covered with
grass, and in some places the shrubbery had
grown to a hight of tliree or four feet. Here
tofore the water on the island was- only ob
tained by condensing, and now thero is an
abundance of it. The island is almost alive
with rats, who were very much surprised at
the appearance of vegetation, but it did not
take them long to get acquainted with the
pumpkins, and they at last accounts were en
joying them as food."

Jolra Morrissey has lately been sick with
omethin2 very like acute bronchitis. He
was very much in danger at one time. As
showing the esteem in which he is held in
certain quarters, it is mentioned that Thurlow
Weed was among the visitors to his sick room.
Editor Pratt .of the Carson Valley News is
the "crackest shot of the whole team of pigeon
killers at the State Fair. A long, single-bar-rell
man like Pratt oftentimes exhibits a sur
prising steadiness of reach in directions least "
thought of. 1
We are free to confess that we are not
reckoned among the admirers of Fremont.
Somehow he always seems to be masquerading
in whatever place he is found. But he has
been a busy man in his day, an adventurous
explorer and an active participant in large
and showy enterprises. We are sorry to hear
of snch a man coming to experience the pres
sure and worriments of poverty in his old age
for Fremont must by this time be quite an
old man. Lately hi3 library and pictures
were sold at public auction. The bidding was
brisk, although on a small scale, and com
parativ'ely large prices were paid for works of
no great merit, while standards sold low.
Eight volumes of John Adams's work, anno
tated by Charles Francis Adams, brought
forty cents each; four volumes of Macaulay's
England, eighty-five cents cents; three vol
umes "History of Royal Residences," with
one hundred colored engravings, facsimile of
original drawings by well known artists,
SG.25 each: Stephens's "Northern Runic
Monuments of Scandinayla and England,"
5.25 for each of the two volumes. Among
the glassware to be said are pieces with the
family initials engraved thereon. Three por
traits, two in oil, of the General grace the
art collection. It ia said the sale is by
Sheriff's order.
