Terence Flanagan, arrested by officer
Bresnahan on complaint of his wife for
tearing up part of wash, was discharg-
ed this afternoon by Squire Chopper, it APP
pearing that he was quite as much sinned
against as SHINING. The man who would
MT tear things generally when he went
home and found somebody else where he
ought to be would be more than human,
say the authorities, and the ARGUS heartily
comedies.
The case of MIR. julius Tiedeman, late
prescription clerk with Hartz & Bahnsen,
was the one cited in last evenings ARGUS
in support of our claim that the postmaster
is in duty and courtesy bound to put the
mail of clerk into the box of his employ
er, when legibly directed. A test case
carried TIC headquarters would very quickly
result in peremptory order to our post
master to obey the mandates of common
sense, especially when it is considered
that the postmastera and his assistant of
Rock Island are the only post office officials
in the country who are pursuing what will
prove to be supremely ridiculous course.
