THE SUPERINTENDENT.


EDITORs JouREAL:--As | am one OF the
'Boomers" should like to respond through
your columns to all the objections | have
heard against Mr.. T. s. Baker as county su-
perintendent.
The principal objection seems to be that
some parties accuse him Of origi-
hating and instigating the plan adopted by
Mr.. Caldwell. Mr.. Corcoran, Mrs. Thompson,
and @ few others, OF addressing cards TO the
teachers throughout the county asking them
If they would support him in the coming
election. irrespective OF party. They say the
teachers dare not refuse for fear they would
not get certificate, or for fear their names
would not be written conspicuously In the
educational column OF the JOURNAL. Now
the above accusation is false. absurd, and ri
diculous. 1t has been denied IN your paper
and / repeat the denial.
SO far az noticing a teacher 10 concerned, if
a teacher is doing well in any particular
branch or branches OF study, it is right and
proper that his success should be mentioned
so the people in the county, and more par
ticularly his fellow teachers, may know in
what work he ID doing well and what method
he adopts to make that work a success. This
is the sole object of Mr.. Baker in publishing
that success. do not suppose that in the
future any teacher will ever blush for hav-
ing been styled one OF Bakers "pets." In
regard to fear, let me say, that we are not a

On Tuesday morning the village was
shocked by the news that Will Dale,
the barkeeper at the fremont House,
had shot Fred Brown, another employe
of the house. On inquiry we lind
there were but two witnesses to the
affair, Dennis Gibbs, who saw the
shooting through the window, and
Dan Williams, who it is said was pres
ent at the time. Mr.. Gibbs saw but
little of the affray and Mr.. Williams
refuses to give any account OF 1t until
the trial of the case. From these
facts any accurate account of the mat
ter is out of the question, the only
possibility being to give the rumors.
1t seems there had been considerable
bad feeling between the young men
the evening before and for some rea-
son Dale borrowed revolver OF a
friend and kept 1t by him. In the
morning Brown came into the bar
room and asked for a drink, which Dale
refused to give him. High words fol-
lowed and Brown left the room fol-
lowed at little distance by Dale.
Brown went into the cloak room While
Dale remained at the archway between
the office and the bar room. How
long the parties remained in that po-
sition is unknown except to those pres
ent, but it seems hard words were used
by Brown at least; Mr.. Gibbs stating
that he did not hear Dale say anything.
Mr.. Gibbs went out the south door
and as he passed by the window he
glanced in and saw Dale raise his pis-
toll and fire. Rushing in he found
Brown had been shot near the door of
the cloak room. Brown was taken in
to the parlor and an examination by
the physicians showed that he had
been shot in the back, the ball passing
in near the back bone and lodging
somewhere near the front. He was re-
moved to a room in the hotel and now
lies in very critical condition. MI.
Dale was arrested but waived an eX-
animation and was held in bail at
81 500 for appearance at the next term
of the Circuit Court.

Last evening the Malcom-Blanch-
ard Opera Troupe rendered the Span
ish operetta, 1.-The Doctor of Alcanta-
ra, at Brackets Hall to full house
with the most pleasing effect. To-
night they will render the celebrated
opera, Pinafore. They are first
class troupe, and are highly deserving
of liberal patronage. We predict a
crowded house this evening.
