Volume !2I.

This issue is the first number of the 21st year
last weeek in May, 1857, but was dated June 4th.
During the first two years, we missed four issues
thus throwing the commencement of the volume
later than it started; but since the Sth OF DE-
cember, 1851 period of almost eighteen years
we have never missed a single regular issue Oh
the paper. At the close of the volume just COM
menced, the Chief will be of age-that Is, II the
tremendous avalanche which now threatens 1t
should be averted. But we have gone through
some rough times, and escaped many threatened
dangers, and we hope to still retain place
among living newspapers, for the brief period OF
TWENTY-FIVE or thirty years to come.
We have been in the habit, upon the COM
mepeement of q new volume, to indulge in re-
view and "reminiscences of the past; but we shall
omit it this time, and prepare for good send-off
upon the completion of our twenty-hrst year.
Those patrons whose names have been on our
books for so many years, truly seem like old and
tried friends, and we wish them continued health
and happiness; while the many who have grad
ualy come upon our list in later years, are equal
ly entitled to our regards.
! We wish to tender thanks to those of our pat
rons who have promptly responded to the bills
recently sent out. We know that times are hard,
and our subscribers know that we have been
easy with them. We believe in the principle of
helping each other over hard times; but IL re-
quires money to run a newspaper, and those who
pay promptly, are the ones who keep up paper
They enable the printer to live, and enable him
to furnish it to the laggards, and to those who
never pay 1t doesn't seem fair, but it is the way
of the world. We would give every man VINO
subscribes for the CHIEF, and every one who pays
in any money, a special complimentary notice.
describing his farm and buildings, and telling
how many bushels of corn, how many acres oil
wheat, and how many pigs he owns; bnt IL we
did so, we would have TO enlarge our paper to
twice its present size. We shall have to make
it suffice to thank them collectively, and to con-
tinue making the Chief deserve the name it has
earned mot arrogated to itself before it was
three weeks old,) of being the best County paper
in Kansas.

that Grant has right to get drunk and yoop-ee

Y Among other matters discussed at the
Convention of County Attorneys, last week, at
Topeka, was the Weights and Measures law. At
ter thorough discussion, it was decided, on a
close vote, that the law was neither mandatory
nor directory, but was void. 1t is well that the
County Board of this County postponed the pur-
chase of the articles required by the law, as it is
not obligatory upon them to make the purchase,
and they can save SO much useless expense.

TEE POLICE WAR.

] 6HlEF In u1E Cdalfs-
One bombshell is no sooner cooled of than
another is fired into th. police camp, and the
| principal occupation OF many OF them is dodging
the particles Of the shell as 1t cxplodes. On the
! first Of the month hand grenade that Supt.
Hickey stealthly laid at Capt. Buckley's door is
| expected to explode. Upon the same date it is
expected that oomb,rdment will be COM
| mcuccd upon the South and West Divisions
from the main camp o: the assailants. Capt.
! Ellis is to be forced to lay down his star and
take q walk for the benefit of his health. 4
number OF Sergeants are to be reduced to the
ranks or forced to resign altogether, and the
policy toward patrolmsn VINO are arraigned
upon petty charges is to be much more severe
until every bad element in the Department is
wccded out.
In q conversation with Supt. Hickey yester-
day, be simply reannou,ccd his firm deterlni-
nation to have Buckley: head. Ellis had not Jet
been asked to resign, but the terrible condition

late: You and everyone else know that Buck
ley has not acted In accord with Mayor Heath's
Administration. One instance alone, The fact
that he has not in any way molcsted the gamblers,
is sufficient to convince the public Of his iuef-
ficiency. He has compelled nc to take men
direct from his station aud put them on gam
bling-houses. with instructions to obey no one
but myself. Else coulG not have accomplished
so much as did"
Mayor Heath was also quite determined in
the matter. From private detectives he has
learned that saloon ordinances and all others
arc broken repeatedly, and that disorder runs
riot in Cheyenne. The West Division he con-
siders equally bad. Tie North Division anI
Capt. Gund is warmly commended. a Sergeant
in this Division who las been considered the
most incompetent has risen into dangerous
power, both through bis recent conduct and
through bis former good luck in having been in
