Not Very Serious.

A dispute arose last week between VIM.
Flannery and his hands, at the saw mill,
near Horse Shoe Bend. 1t appears that
the men, who had been working some
time for MIR. Flannery, demanded pay for
their services. and upon Flannery's ina
bility or refusal to pay. they took posses
sion of the material they had been getting
out until the pay should be forthcoming; ;
whereupon Flanncry came to town, enter
ed complaint and had the men arrested for
riot. Upon hearing of the case before
Judge Mcpherson, the men were prompt
ly discharged, there appearing to be no
good cause Of action.
