The people of Eillsboro and the othel
towns Of the south end of the rang,
who are interested in having a roaC

lively going on at this end of the rang,
for Il couple of weeks past, and tina
good progress has been made on TIL,
road. If the people of the south viii

in the most judicious manner, it nee,
not be long before w have a good ant
) direct wagon communication, and

Chloride had its first genuine COW
boy experience oil Tuesday night. Th
worst feature Of the affair was tina
only one or two of the crowd wer
cowboys, the remainder beng citizen
: of Grafton and Chloride. Pistol shoot
ing made night hideous, the noise great
: ly annoying not to say injuring ladie
with weaknesses and i'll health, an
the random shots penetrating tn
houses placed the lives of every citlze
$ in danger. The actors in the hoodlur
D pI oceedings are heartily ashamed O
themselves now, and the people of tn
town have taken precautions that th
scene shall not be repeated. SO it leave
Y little to be said on the subject. 1t ha
0 been productive of one good. 1t ha
without the loss of life usual to sue
!, cases, stirred the people up to that o.
f ganization which is absolutely nece'
sary in a frontier town and which mus
: sooner or later be perfected.
