The events of the past few days have been
of a character to make people ask, "What is
this city coming to-" Last night a gentle
man overheard a conversation of certain
parties which was to the effect that if any
one should be hurt by the militia or police
in trying to lynch Cantieny that Mayor Pills
bury should be made TO suffer. The gentle
man thought the character of the men, and
the manner in which the threat was made
TO be such as TO indicate that they meant
business. Our citizens should sit down on
such talk as this with all emphasis possible
1t is not only foolish and vicious, but may
possibly lead TO bad results.
