SHERIFF BAXTER AND H. C..
MARCH--WHICH?

Two weeks ago we gave. the following
which explains itself
"a correspondent OF the Alliance San
dag Telegraph, ever the signature OF
."Yox Populi," warns temperance men not
TO be deceived by Henry C.. March's pro-
fession of temperance; that the only differ
ence between Sheriff Baxter and March is,
that Baxter never claimed to be a tenn
perance man, while March did" but "a he
is not, "to Baxter belongs the greatest
credit" "Vox Populi" seems to abhor
hypoorites and deceivers. OF coarse he
recommends ]. w. Roath as the Prohibi-
ton candidate for Sheriff, and warns all
honest temperance men to vote for him
in preference to voting for such q frand as
Henry G. March"
OF course the above was enough TO
cause our loving neighbors, of the Rep
and Rep to draw on their usual vocab-
ulary for the proper quantity of slang and
scurrility, in which they make out March
a saint all over and Baxter is all
that he should not be.
Now, we do not care to handy words
over the characters of Messrs. Baxter and
March. Tt matters not to us whether Mr..
March is a real saint or a hypocrite-
whether, in the service, he frequently got
drunk as Bacchus and tumbled off his
horse or nOt-whether he defrauded rela-
tives brothers out of what belonged to
them or not All this, we say, matters
not.
But, as to Sheriff Baxter We can truth
fully say, no such charges lie at his door.
As Sheriff, Mr.. Baxter has attended faith
fully to the business of the office. The
Rep & Rep nor no other scurrilous sheet
disputes this. The ring organ Las not
even intimated any dereIiotion of duty on
the part of Sheriff Baxter. Yet this
shameless organ calls him q "toper," "a
%loaier," &c.
Our neighbors should remember,
.Lest folk suspect your tale IN true,
Keep probability in YieW.n
