fFne Proposed Pistol Ordinance

10 the Editor OF the PreSS.
/ have noticed in the papers of late, that
strong effort is being made to create public
sentiment against the sale of small firearms TO
boys, because an occasional accident results
from their careless use; and the PRESS mas
gone so far as to prepare an ordinance upon
the subject for the City Council to pass. 1t 70
to be hoped that the city fathers will not act
hastily ia this matter, or wi hout looking at
both sides of the question. Do the circum-
stances as they exist require the enactment OF
law so embarrassing to the dealer as the one
proposed exposing him, as it will, to its PEN
alties in consequence of the false statements
that would be likely to be made by some OF
his customers in regard to age, and so trouble
soma to the parent or guardian. 1t is fact
that among the many hundreds of boys who
purchase pistols and ammunition for use on
the Fourth of July, when most of them are
sold, comparatively few do so without the
knowledge and consent of their parents; ana 10
oblige them to be at the trouble OF writing
permit in every case would certainly pc

to accident from their use

on every kind Of fire-arm, and the youngSter
from the country town who comes to tne Guy
to purchase a gun or revolver, would gensraily
come in ignorance OF the law, and coolo LOT
buy because he would have no permit.
The fatal results attending so many OF tne
pistol wounds of late, is doubtless due, IN most
cases, to the poisonous nature of the 3o1ntaieate
with which blank cartridges are charged, ana
the cheap blank cartridge pistols now SO penny
are well calculated to cause the accidents
when carelessly used. If these could De Done

An Alleged Case Of False Prete nses.

An Alleged Case of False Prete nses.
James Russell of Buckfeld Saturday was
brought before Trial Justice James S. Wright,
of oxford county, upon a complaint charging
him with obtaining 1900 pounds of phosphate
from The Winslow Packing Company by false
pretenses, and after full hearing, was bound
over in the sum Of five hundred dollars to APP
pear at the September term of the Supreme
Judicial court for Oxford county
The company sometime in May, made con-
tract with Russell to plant sweet corn and de-
liver the same this season, at the Buckfield
factory General Mattocks the President of
the company authorized the foreman, Henry
Nulty, to advance to the tanners planting corn,
such amounts of phosphate as might be desir-
ed by each, not exceeding fifteen dollars to the
acre planted. This phosphate was to BIS sold
20 the farmers to be paid for when they deliv-
cred the corn under their contracts. The fore
man was instructed to exercise careful dis
erection as to advancing the phosphate to any
irresponsible person.
Tt seems that up to the ninth day of June,
Russell bad obtained about four thousand
pounds, and upon that day applied for more.
Nulty the foreman, and another witness testl-
fed that on that day he stated to MIR. Russell
that he had heard rumors that he (RusselD had
not planted any corn, and did not intend to
plant any, and questioned him about 1T. The
foreman testified that Mr.. Russell informed
him that he had planted five acres of land with
sweet corn, and that he wanted more phos-
phate to complete the planting Of twelve acres
The foreman told him to call in few days,
when if such was the fact, he would let him
have the phosphate. On The fourteenth day OF
June Mr. Russell called again, and told the
foreman that he then had planted seven acres
of land with sweet corn, and the foreman,
few DAYS later, delivered him eighteen hun
dred pounds more of phosphate. few days
afterward, having heard new rumors to the eff
feet that Mr.. Russell had not planted any sweet
corn the foreman called upon him and ques-
toned him as to the facts. He was met tn
the answer that it was none of his business,
and that he had found man in Buckfeld who
could cheat and lie as well as the old company
did last year. Upon inquiry it was ascertained
that Mr.. Russell had Eot planted more than
half an acre of sweet corn in all.
The hearing was largely attended by the cit
liens of that vicinity. John P. Swasey, ESQ.,,
of Canton, appeared for the defendant
and A. w. Coombs, ESQ., of this city, for the
