Trial Justices-The Fence Law
Fork OF EDIsro, Jan IT, 1886

eace' 9"'ctude ana good order
reign sup rene throughout this section
since the removal of James Browne
ns Trial Justice. On dit, there are
two other applicants for the position.
The people Of the Fork do not want
any Iriai Justices at all. We get
along great deal better without
them than with them. 1t is to be
hoped tho uh wary will MT be foole.i
into signing the petitions of the new
aspiran.s. Shun the office seeker as
you would serpent. Sit the mat
ter to the bottom, and you will find
"the friends who want me to accept
the pusitioI are NON est inucntuS. The
whole truth is the man has no friends
at all. If he had, they would not
allow him to accept any public Office
and, more especially, that of Trial
Justice.
"Walch,' in The Dcn,ocrot, is on
the wong side of the fence law.
If twenty head Of cattle, pcnncd
every night on sufficient litter, will
pay not. less than five dollars per
head in the value of manure, in in

than two dollars per head" bv all

Hc have no doubt that this high

no NOMINATION TO-DAY.
One thing Is sure, there will be no nom

dentials Is still fighting over the Illinois
contest and stands adjourned until the
same hour appointed for the Convention
TO meet. The Committee on Resolutions
agreed to report one against the unit rule,
and this will likely be bitterly contested
in the Convention, and will hardly be
voted on until after the question oi crs-

tinued as President, and the resolutions
are still In the hands Of a subcommittee
