From the wall of indignation that comes
from a certain editor there seems to be some
one hurt about the nomination for Poor Direc
tor. When the nomination was quietly made
three wears ago by the standing committee to
the liking of this loyal editor no fault of one
or two men debating to the masses was found
but now the committee met by the call of their
Chairman and had the meeting published in
sound democratic paper, and the committee
met at the appointed time and place and nomi
mated Democrats, not boitera, for the office of
Poor Directors Now as this loyal editor has
no fault to find with old directors he believes
they have done their duty it is pretty certain
who he is trying to SANDER through his smut
machine, The people Of Scott know who
voted for the Poor House and who voted
agar st it, and the list Of votes and voters will
tell who voted for Sheriff last fall. Talk about
fraud and rule and ruin party Poor fellow,
when democrats want your advice they will
call on you. Let justice be done you though
the heavens fall.

On Monday night at the Opera House be.
tween the acts of the 1.-TWO Orphans" the Jan.
itor of the house, B. II. Vannatta, went tc
ChIef of Police Laycock and informed him
that man down in front was creating dis
turbance, and had insulted him. Mr. Lay cock
went down and told the person to apologize
and upon his refusal Vannatta and Laycock
laid hands upon him and violently pulling him
from his chair, elected him from the hall. This
person was Mr. Godfrey, a Young man who has
been residing here for some time past as a pa
tient of DR.. Turner, being subject to epilepsy
lie is quiet, peaceable and refned gentleman,
and a careful inquiry int The cause of his ejec-
ton failed to elicit any facts that in any way
justified the proceeding. lie had few words
with Nannatta about seat, but it was so quiet,
ly said that those sitting Immediately behind
did not notice it, The first impression of those
in the audience who knew Mr.. Godfrey, was
that he had a convulsion, but the truth of the
matter was soon ascertaned, and then the i'm
dignation knew no bounds, 1t was proposed
by a number to go ont and bring h i'm back and
place him in his chair, and the Chief of Police
when he saw his mistake, offered to head the
procession, This was not done owing to the
fact that much excitement is injurious TO Mr.
Godfrey.
While the Chiefof Police supposed he was
doing his duty, at the request Of the janitor
and says he did not know Godfrey, he was very
hasty in doing as he did before satisfying him
selfthat disturbance was being created. He
has probably learned by this time that even
police officer cannot take the law in his owr
hands, and eject man from public hall sim
ply because he will not apologize to the janitol
whose business is to sweep the floor and build
the fires, and not to look after the seating o
the audience, As it is likely that legal step,
will be taken, we refrain from say ing anything
to prejudice the public mind,
