Some of the residents of the towns
of Morris and Darien and this Village,
are agitating the question of petition
ing the board of County Commissioners
to disorganize the towns above men,
toned, and reorganize as one town.
The advantages claimed for this step
are these: AS the business Of these
towns is usually transacted at this
point, it will facilitate matters; also
relieving the towns above named of the
expense attending the support of two
sets of officers, and the cost of main.
ing two distinct organizations. As
this is matter of considerable impor.
tance, we would like to hear from some
of the parties interested.

The laws of 1875, require every Druggist
to keep record Of the date and the person
to whom he sells certain kinds of poison:
preseribes penalty for the neglect to keep
such record. This penalty implies pro-
hibition unless such record is kept. l am
inclined to think that the law in relation
to the protection OF domestic animals,
dogs included, is, that if any person wilful.
ly or carelessly kills or Injuries any domes-
tic animal, either by shooting or by pro-
miscuously strewlng poison through the
country, such person is liable to the owner
OF such domestic animal for the value
thereof. My dog has been poisoned
through the carelessness Of certain persons
in strewing poison Down near the river,
and write this short epistle aS a warning
to all those who deal in poison. IA word
to the wise is sufficient"

TO temporarily select the county seat until
the fall election when the question of per.
manent location will be voted upon.
Three localities are now contendlng for the

EDITOR OF STEVENS COUNTY TRIBUNE:
GENTLEMAN:-In your issue of Jan. 2Sd,
| find the following item of aeacs:
The creditors of j. MCGOWAN, a mer-
chant at DOnnelly, have placed several at
tachments on the stock in his store. Sher-
| iff Laudberg served the papers Monday and
found that the stock had been disposed of
to a MIR. Campbell. McGowan taking
Campbells note for 81 400. Tho Sheriff
did not consider it a bona fde sale; being
refused an entrance to the store, he forced
the doors and levied Oh the stock.
| Whilst consider it laudable and enter
prising for a newspaper man to gather all
the items of interest and general news that
he can, and for Sheriffs to do there duties
as officers of the law, l do not think the
best interests of society, or the business in
terests Of Stevens county are promoted by
maligning the character of any one, let
them be ever so humble The above quo
ted article, take it, (although may be
mistaken, and if so, stand corrected), re-
fleets upon my character as man. First,
as being connected with a transaction that
was not bona fde, something dishonest, in
fact that / was party to steal. This
may probably be the case in the judgment
of Sheriff Landberg; but was not aware
until saw the item quoted above, that the
Sheriff of Stevens Co., by virtue of his of
fee, was Judge, Jury. Plaintiff and Defend
ant; also, the evidence, and that he was
clothed with the supreme power and righI
to pronounce judgment on the side thai
had the most money, as lie puts 1t. While
have no objection to any one stating wha
they can prore, do object and enter my
i protest to either officer or citizen making
charges of fraud against myself or an!
other inhabitant of the State ON no bette
evidence than writ of attachment. Isup
posed that the courts decided those matters
. and am ready and willing to submit tn
: matter to the courts and 10 a jury of m,
{ peers, but not to the bought hireling of an
rich firm of this or any other State. hav
always conceded the right to every one, I
mind their own business, and would lik
!. that privilege accorded to me. In til
|
point raised as to my refusal to admit th
q parties who came to take my goods fo
n another mans debts. would ask for IL
}, formation, by what right or process of Ia
Q or equity, can the Sheriff Of Stevens coul
h ty, or any other person, demand entranC
e. to my house or place of business, aud if
3, refuse, force an entrance, when he has 1
: demands or papers for or against me, 81
4. without the first shadow Of law, writ,
10 process. II / had done my duty to societ
y would have shot them down, as all pirat
= = and guerillas should be shot. But being
law abiding and peace loving citizen,
I. leave them to the ccnsure Of all honest M
and to the courts of justice Of my counts
