Rumor has It that WIN. Harding

on the safe side OF extrodition laws,
People all over the county are ask.
ing themselves the question "Is il
possible, that Cap. Harding would be
guilty OF embezzlenentr - Others give
wise wink and say II told you 80, u
but the facts In the case are and they
bafIle denial, that few people In Sny.
der county stand higher in their imme
diate neighborhood than did Cap.
Harding. Though he never had any
common school education to speak Of,
he is man Of remarkable intellect,
II fine reader OF human nature, keen
observer, and Of extensive experience.
A soldier in the Mexican war, a mem
her OF General Mead's STAFF during
the Rebellion, and a holder Of public
Offices Of trust since the war. A fine
conversationalist full Of anecdotes
which bristlsd with wit aud history
He prided himself on his honesty be-
cause he said he found pleasure in
being so-and no one acquainted with
his prompt business principles doubt
ed bis word. In short, IL Captain
William Harding il an embezzler, it
is best, after all, to believe and profit
by the old English maxim, that "one

other half II not to DO trusted"
