The Sitter State says ::
Thomas Shone and Sheriff
Richard have organized a total
abstinence society which differs
in several respects from the old
temperance organizations. Every
candidate before being initiated
into the secrets of the Organiza-
ton, has to deposit forty dollars
in coin or greenbacks with the
Secretary, as a guarantee of
good faith, and this amount he
forfeits if he violates the rules
of the organic ltion. The meet
ings are to be held at the Toll

L. Richard, President, and
Thomas Shone, Secretary.
Every one who deposits the for
felt money is eligi lie to member

seducing his wife, was defend
ed by Cameron II. King, who
WAS also the lawyer for young
Conkling, who shot and killed
the seducer of his sister, Haver-

the former case, but if our MEM
CRY serves us right it was to that

The Bee is correct, King took
no active part in the trial ex-

even make a speech or cross
