J.. 4, TOWN As APURJURER.

III HACA AOA " "AAV w
compel Town to deliver up the Office, is
false from beginning to end. AS usu.
al, Rohrer simply drew up such n state
ment rs was necessary to carry his
point, and his man swore to it. This
is by no means a new thing for him to
do. We have charged a hundred times
that this is Rohrer's method Of practic.
ing law and it is generally understood
in this community to be the case. Not
only in public cases like this does lie
draw false afiilayits but also in the
smallest and most unimportant suits.
Conscientious parties sometimes refuse
to swear to papers Of this kind, while
others, like J. n. Town in this answer,
swear to the whole batch of lies, not
even holding their noses while the dirty
mass goes through.
Register of Deeds Chadwick sends Us
the following letter which corrects
their false swearing SO far it reflects up.
IN him and his Office:

GRANTISM
At the time of Grant arrival on tI..
Pacific coast and the inauguration o!
the Grant ''boom'' we noticed tie fact
that the movement was one of cap;tul-
lists and politicians. The capitalist:
were ready to spend any amount #
money in entertaining Grant and the
politicians were ready to do the strik-
ing and blowing. The people l,,d moth
to do with it us a political movement.
The reason for this Grant :'boomn is
given by Senator Sharon, { f Nevada. III
Il recent interview. Sharon is IL million
aire and wants strong central govern
ment run in the interest Of capital.
lie says:

mah'ls 1t; without capital and capital.

We have tried Grant, and know him t.
he the man for the place above ali

publican party. The railroads, the
banks. the manufacturers. the heavy
importers and al CLASSES of business in
which millions are invested. will main
tain the supremacy Of the Republican
party. Democratic success would bp
bankruptcy to them. To avert fearful
bloodshed, Il strong central government
should he established as soon rs posi-
ble.''
J. n. II I'll, in Il letter to the Manka-
to Free Press, says Of the Malkato N.
e. church imbroglio:
The stigma Of this affair will rest M
on the church long after most ufthe ac-
tors therein have passed away. Prob
ably the case has no parallel in The his
tory Of Mrthodistism, and it WAS left for
TIE Methodist Church in Mankato to
set an example Of ingratitude that witt.
IL politician or business man would dam,
him to everlasting lntamy.
We have said about that same thing
concerning several churches in Worth
ington and have been pretty freely
cussed and discussed by chu:ch IN enl-
bers for doing so.
