OUR SHERIFF.

AR. L. S. Murray yesterday as.
sumed the duties of sheriff and vii
hereafter be found at his Office in the
Jail building. Mr.. Murray is a
worthy and deserving citizen, and
that he will ill his important position
with wisdom and efficiency is guar
anteed by the fact that his meritori-
Gus discharge of its duties some years
ago was more than any other cause
the reason of his present election by a
handsome majority.
Mr.. Conner, the outgoing sheriff,
will remove to the country to find in
the quietude of rural life the rest he
90 much needs. 1t is but simple JUS
tice to say for him that no man has
ever filled the Office of sheriff of Pet
tbs county more acceptably, honestly
and efficiently and he retires with the
respect, confidence and best wishes of
all good citizens irrespective of party.
