The school township election you de.
scribe was manifestly not held accord
ing to the general election law. nor any
other in Heaven or on Earth. and why
it has stood a year I cannot imagine.
But you say the Judge decided there was
no organization. This Office follows that
decision and heartily endorses it. The
decision ofa court or the opinion Of a
Judge goes far beyond the opinion of an
executive officer on titles to office, valid
ity Of election, etc.
Section Is declares void the election
Of at least two members of the board.
The school township never has by any
possibility had more than n legal
officer, and two are a prerequisite to
any legal act whatever. Therefore no
legal action can have been taken. The
school township exists only by defined
boundaries and not by lawful organiza
ton. The board Of county commission
err and county clerk, sheriff, DC, must
under their oath of Office perform their
duty, make, serve and post notice OF.

The Difficulty between F. o. j. Smith
and Leonard JARVIS.

In the TWenty-third Congress there was a
bitter feud between two of the representative,
from Maine. Mr.. Francis o. j. Smith, of Port.
land, and Mr.. Leonard Jarvis of Ellsworth
both strong Jackson men. Indeed. the whole
State of Maine was divided between them. Il,
England once was between the houses Of York
ana Lancaster. Finally. in February, 1885
Smith issued malignant and coarse handful
against Jarvis. and caused it to be laid ON the
desk of every member of Congress. 1t accused
Jarvis of almost ever crime known TO infamy,
and, last of all, called him coward. The
handbill was so exceedingly violent that it was
absolutely loathsome, and Old Iristram Bur
CESS was so disguised with il, that he was at
one time on the eve Of offering a resolution to
the House expressive of contempt of the foul
record of ribadry Prior to the publication Of
this filthy thing, all who had not inquired into
the merits of the quarrel, rather espoused the
side of Smith, forming their opinions of the
man more upon the vague information they
collected than from any knowledge of the
controversy. But, as soon as this vile handful
was published. the tables were turned and
Smith fell below zero in the estimation of
every gentleman. lie had very incautiously
called Mr.. Jarvis coward, and of course it
was expected that he would have an opportun-
ity to make good the accusation. Mr.. Jarvis,
who was IA graduate of Harvard and who had
travelled extensively in Europe, sent Smith a
challenge by Representative Robert Il. Lvtle of
Ohio. Smith received the call with amazement
and refused to fight Jarvis, alleging his reasons
for dong so; and AS these reasons We're con-
sidered insufficient and disrespectful, the Hon
Mr.. Lytle found himself called upon to espouse
the quarrel and assume the attitude of princi-
pal. de invited Smith to the field, the invita-
ton was declined, and the consequence was
that the Hon. Francis .. }. Smith was posted
in the highways and byways for a coward
The affair was a death blow to all respect that
Smith had enjoyed at Washington and Oh his
