Whatever else may be sad of Mr.. Fred. Bos.

kIoWs tha' every vote given - Boswell is vote
for Hine, the candidate OF the Greeley democ-
Tacy, ard that this is the sole end of putting
EOsweN in ne field in accordance with the bar
gain made between Boswell and Hine. The
close sf.iliatiOn between the Ordwav- Boswell
Club room and the democratic club room shows
the status of Affairs Marcellus West and other
nOtOTieties of that stamp. who train with the
Greeley democracy. are habitues, alike. of the

quarters IN common causr. Remembering

the war whether he should Join the rebels in

eTal Gran. in the PET, and in view, also,
OF his atteu'It IN January, 1s55, to get upa
Chase organization here in opposition to Grant.
IL would seem that even his brazen assurance
would hardly lead him to set himself up as a
Grant republican candidate for congress At
the meeting OF the central republican essocia-
ton January Eth, 1s6S. IL VII be remembered
Boswell lsbCred strenuously to prevent the en-
tOrsement OF Grant by the association. and
came forward with a resolution in favor of s. p
Chasa Tor the Presidency "a a substitute for a
resolution offered by Mr.. a. Watson nomina-
ting l. 5. Grant for the Presidency. watson's
resolution was offered October 25th, 1867, in the
same association, and Boswell had attempted to
pack the meeting Of January Eth to defeat the
resolution by substitute in favor of Chase. He
was supported by DIR. Furvis, who made a
violent speech against Grant, charging that
nothing could be said in Grants favor but his
TetiCence. General Grant was defended by
John F. Cook, who declared that nineteen
twentieths Of the people of the north were for
Grant, and that, as regarded his reticence, he
had very adequately shown his hand in behsIf
O. I. cedOm and the cOlOred race.
The debate was exceedingly fierce, and finally
6 motion % adjourn was declared carried, very
much To The wrath of Boswell, who swOTe ssthst

city government in the coming June election"

THE WAY no DO 1T.

We should prefer, from our desire to
not give good citizens any annoyance,
to let the sheep case which occupies
court this week, drag along and, wind
itself up without extended publicity
But we feel it our duty to refer to re-
ports which we find in circula-
ton in regard to the decision of Mr..
Pinkerton, who, as Justice OF the
Peace, held the accused TO trial. OF
course, he could not make a decision
to satisfy both parties, and either way
would have been liable to be found
fault with. Its so in every case, and
Mr.. Pinkerton is doubtless philosophi-
cal enough to stand good naturally an
ordinary amount of criticism, such as
being wrong in his opinion, not decid-
ing on strictly legal principles, or even
self willed, prejudiced or unfair.
Justices OF the Peace have to meet such
complaints from most people whom
they decide against. SO do higher
courts, and jurics. But we hear that
Mr.. Pinkerton is charged with having
been influenced by such considera-
tions at previous resolve TO PREJUDICE
the case against the defendants, and of
having virtually agreed to do so.
Now we cannot for 4 moment accept
as correct any such statement. We
believe Mr.. PinkertoH to be an up.
right, honorable, and conscientious OF
ficer. lie may make mistakes-most
people 90, in office or out of office.
But we do not believe that he is
man to be Influenced by any
dishonorablc motives. lie has made a
very good Justice. He has done
large amount of business since accept
ing his Office, and this is the first time
we have heard his decisions SO assail-
ed. And as Mr.. L. is public Off
Ger, largely intrusted with the whole
some and effective administration of
the laws, we think it proper to invite
any complaints against jim to be made
publicly, in our columns, that he may
have a fair opportunity OF putting
thcm to the test. If they cannot stand
public discussion and judgment, the
public can hardly be expected to give
them credence.

FREMONT.

The town of Fremont is six miles
east and west, by ten miles north and
south, lying north of the Neosho river,
and occupying nearly a central posi-
ton in Lyon county, with probably as
good a soil for mixed farming as any
town in this part of the State. 1t is
watered by Plumb, Taylor, Dow, Still
man, Allen and Poster creeks, and a
few natural springs. There is but lit
tie homestead land to be found in the
