! THE DoNoHUE MURDER, for 1t will probably
result in murder as Donohne lies apparently
in very precarious condition, was the result
Of political feud which has already brought
about one murder. The man Scanned. who is
charged with the deed, had attempted to
kill Donohue once before, when Donohue
was acquitted Of the murder of his brother
Florence. For this attempt he was merely
put under bonds to keep the peace, when he
should have been tried for an assault and COM
mitted until his desire for vengeance on an
Innocent man had cooled. AS it is, political
considerations are not likely in the present
aspect of politics in this city to interfere with
the strctest punishment which justice may
mete out to the guilty man.

the attitude OF the party organization. II remains
