Harve, however, put in his appearance
in town this morning, as pert and chippy
as ever, and says he is ready to De arrest.
ed, is waiting for it, and has sent word to
Sensenig, through Hen Breneman, to crack
his whip and that whenever Raymond is
arrested Lcvi will be arrested too. Harve
has quite story to tell of his and Sen.
senig's relations in this campaign: The
sist Of it is as follows
." He cheated me and lied to him and
that is the whole OF it. Scnsenig and
have generally worked together and he
depended on me and the eight or nine dis
tricts control, and last Wednesday night
it was fixed that he would give no money
to anybody in them except me. l was to
help him get some Of his men in and lie
was to help me get Grissinser through:
He gave me his written contracts. which
have ut home. TO pay me $500 if High was
elected, $500 if Wisslcr was elected and
$50 il Eaby was elected. was to throw
my districts to them if they needed them ;
if not was to handle them to the best
advantage for Grissinger. l hold that
Scnsenig owes me $3.50 on that contract, as
High and Eaby were elected, though my
districts were not needed to do it.
% Last Sunday came to town and saw
Lcve and told him my country was about
q stand off for sheriff, &C., and asked him
il could help him any, and he said mo ;
that High and Eaby could get through
without it and Wissler couldn't bc made
anyhow. lie said that l could help him
pull SkiIes through. told him Fridy had
about 29O votes up there, when he really
had about 700. was looking out for a
trade for Grissinger. Leve had agreed to

it to Skiles il the Seventh ward went for
Grissinger. Wien found that Grissingcr

around the neck yesterday morning and
beg me not to leave them, to stand by
them-Lcw Hartman, Ed. Martin and
their RefOrmcrs?''
Raymond thus defics the Senscnig-
Skiles party and it will be interesting, to
see, in the light Of his revelations,
whether they will carry out their threats
- arrest him.
AprOpOs of the Seventh ward return,
which reports 80 votes polled, OF which
Skilcs got 2S4, the friends Of Frdy claim
to have proof that only 151 legal votes
