John Condron, who, after due consid.
GRAFTON, has agreed to permit them to
return to their duty on condition that
each of their So called leaders should
strip off his shoulder-straps and do the
Generals bidding as privates, under
the charge of such of his non. com.
mlssioned officers as he may select.
The deserter further states that
these terms are accepted by the "High
JOINTS" but evidently with an i'll
grace, and they have prepared to take
their placesin the rear as privares, ex.
cept some of their so-called leaders,
who, proving to be Mormons and
otherwise disloyal to American princi.
pies, were ordered by General Con-
dron to be placed in the guardhouse,
under charge of First Sergeant George
Taylor.
The deserter says he does not know
how Mr.. Candidate Cannadv stands,
but he heard it rumored that the High
Joints, now that they have been sent
to the rear as privates, would advise
him not to tackle the Republican
Gum, but run for Sheriff, as possibly
he might stand some show of getting
that place, which would enable him to
get even with Condron and his crew
sometime.
At the time the Democratic deserter
left their camp, he says Mr.. Cannady
was in consultation with few High
Joints (who had not yet gone to Gen
eral Condron's camp and Mr.. Kinney
on this Sheriff 3 business, and just as
he stole through the Democratic lines
he heard Kinney say: "I1l be gol
darned if l do! You got yourself in
to this mess. Now you and your fell
low mossbacks may pull out of it.
am going to run for Sheriff and knock
the very stu(ing out of the entire Re.
publican caboodle."
Upon the delivery of this informa.
ton, which was taken only as the
story of deserter, the Republican
chairman had a guard detailed tc
watch the deserter, and with the
