A low contemplate trick was per-
petrated upon Samuel Pearson last Sat-
urday evening. in the cutting of the
traces and lines of his harness, while
his colt stood hitched in the village.
Mr.. Pearson is staunch supporter of
law, order, decency and everything that
tends toward good morals in a commu-
nifty. He has expressed himself very
plainly this summer in regard to the
rowdyism and drunkenness in this VII
lage, for which he and others has been
separately stoned and jeered at. This
is only one of the many dirty disgrace
full tricks perpetrated this season by
certain class in this town, for which,
however, some older people are as much
responsible as those directly concerned
in them. By their sympathy and ad-
vice to those indicted in September, have
they wronged that element in our COM
munity in lawlessness and a disregard
of the law and decency. So that such
performances as the above are becoming
quite frequent, and even the small boys
are catching the spirit of recklessness.
and matters are gradually tending to
the time when nothing but energetic
measures will put stop to it.
