MCKINLEY addressed the wrong audience here
Tuesday night His speech might have passed in
some other latitude, but the people here read d
thing or two and they found him out at once to
be either gross falsider or an intense ignoramus,
Re said, among other things, that Hendricks was
member of Buchanans Cabinet ana also that
the Democrats had q majority in the House for the
past two years both of Which statements are un-
true. Hendricks was never in Buchanan's Cabi-
net and the Democrats had a majority inthe
House for only the past single session in many
years. He kept repeating that the Presidential
election is to come off November 4th. This date
comes on Saturday, whereas the election is fixed
by law on Tuesday. Likewise when he asserted
that the House had not discovered the stealing or
misappropriation of q single dollar by Republi-
can government officials he lied. Witness the
Republican official thieves in prison for whisky
frauds on the revenue, The Delano Indian ring
frauds, the Navy stealngs, the Public Printing
swinde the Postal straw bid frauds, the Belknap
Post-tradership frauds, the Soldiers Tombstone
frauds, the Freedmen's Bank robbery, the Wash
ington ring swind.ug contracts and hundreds Of
other thieying jobs uncovered by the late House
committee on investigations. They are facts which
can not be put aside by the brazen assertion Of
am Republican speaker much less such a mouth
ing mannikin as Mckinley showed himself to be,

T A VILLAINoUs 0UTRAGE.-Last Sunday night
shameful and extraordinary act of theft and vii.
lainy was perpetrated on the farm of Louis Wise,
adjoining the P. Ft W. q C. Ry, about two miles
west of town. A fine fat steer belonging to Mr.,
Wise was killed and, bu chered in the field dur
ing the night, The villains evidently wanted the
meat and perhaps. the deed was done partly
through spite They carried every part Of the
carcass away, that c uld be of any good, except
ing the hide, which they left probably because it
might have served to identify them had they
taken it. We know not whether Mr., Wise
has any suspicious or clues or not, but we sin
cerely hope he MAY bo able to- bring just punish
ment upon the perpetrators Of this act. rMp,

The school Superintency

TIE TERN OF OFFICE CHANGED FROM ONE
YEAR TO THREE YEARS DURATION.
Col. Heisler, at a meeting of the School
Board held two weeks ago, gave notice that
he would bring up for discussion At the
next regular meeting, the question of elect
ing a school Superintendent once every
three years, instead Of each year, as here
tofore. This would necessitate the striking
out of the bylaws, act 10th, section 5th, On
page IL, which provides for the annual
annual election of Said officer. as
Last evening Mr.. Heisler introduced tho
question, and made motion providing for
tho election of School Superintendent, once
In each three years, the next election to take
place on the first of June, 1875, and the
term of Office to expire on the S1st Of May,
1879. "-.
Several members engaged in discussion
upon the subject, all however, favorably,
Col. Heisler particularly urging that the
change take place, as he thought one year
was too short even for the Board to sscer-
tain whether it had good School Superin-
tendent, as it would require that time for
him to become thoroughly acquainted with
the duties he wrs expected to perform. Az
ter some more remarks, the motion was
voted upon and carried. s'4-1 ~
