War Claims.

State Auditor James NJ. Seibert has
received numerous letters relating to
war claims certificates" and not being
able to answer all inquiries by letter,
has issued circular in which he says:
''The present condition of affairs in this
regard may be thus stated: The Govern
ment is not authorized, under existing
laws, to pay any of said claims, unless
and until they shall first have been paid
by the State. On the other
hand, even if the State desired to pay
all of said claims, she could not pay one
dollar on them under the prohib
contained in the present Constitution"

my physician about it, and he gave me an
ointment to put on it, when this did not re-
lieve me, he then burnt it out, but the place
would not heal 1t gradually grew longer

up that must also die Of cancer. Friends

A BASE CowARD.-The item in the
Chicago press of recent date that we
had been fatally wounded by judge
for publishing a SANDER was not ex-
actly correct. In the first place, the
individual was a cow boy named
Rose. In the next place the article
was true, and in the third place, after
he had fired five shots at US without
touching hair, we knocked him silly
with a squash which We picked up in
front of Snyder's grocery. Then we
stood on him for about half an hour,
and when he went out of town, our
brindled dog was chasing him at
speed of twenty miles an hour.

Ever since we took possession of
our Office on Sioux avenue certain
people have taken malicious delight
in heaving rocks at our. doors and
through the windows at midnight.
We put up with it the first six months
because we were afraid, and the next
six because we liked to see people
enjoy themselves. Then We warned
the public TO let; up or somebody
would get hurt: East Wednesday
night rock weighing three pounds
came through window and barely
missed our head as we lay sleeping on
our cot. As we got to the door with
a shot gun some one could be seen
making off over the commons towards
Elkinss saloon. We drew on him
and pulled the trigger, and something
uttered yell.
Yesterday the body of Prof. Jen.
kins was found in the sage brush
about two miles from town, and it
was plain that he died of a dose of
buck shot in the back. Just as likely
as not he was the chap we fred at in
the darkness. We didn't owe him
any particular grudge, and we didn't
know that he did us, and we are will
ing to foot half the burial expenses at
a venture.

THE ARIZONA KICKER.
An Editors Experience With Human
Nature.

We extract the following from the
last issue of the Arizona Kicker:
We ARE LEFr.-For the past four
weeks our friends have been eagerly
pressing US to take the nomination for
Mayor on the peoples ticket. We do
not crave Office, and are very busy
man, but the pressure became so great
we had to give in.
Last Thursday evening the city
caucus was held. and instead of being
nominated for Mayor we received only
three votes out Of upwards OF sixty
cast. Oar friends were mistaken
when they insisted that we were want
ed. Instead of being the unanimous
choice OF the patriotic people, we bad
the pleasure of seeing Jerry Baxter,
the meanest man in town, given the
nomination.
Oh, we'll, that's human nature right
through, and an editor fool enough to
go into politics deserves to be driven
head first into the tan-bark as We were.
We have word to say, however. The
Kicker will not only bolt every candi-
date on the ticket, but we guarantee
to have nine -tenths of the nominees in
prison before they are month older.
Veni cum grants! which is Latin for
saying: Don't monkey with a newspa-
per man.

HAVE Cor FEw.-A correspondent
inquiries if the Kicker has any libel
suits on hand, as the result Of its in
dependent and outspoken course.
Well, yes, it has few-about four
dozen we believe, but we are not wor-
rying any. They have all been insti-
tuted by second class ducks, who
haven't any character to be damaged,
and the whole batch will probably be
thrown out of court in lump some
day. In the beginning of our career
libel suit used to give US the collie for
three days and nights, and we'd wake
up from q troubled sleep to find our
cheeks wet with tears, but we soon got
sun burned. Indeed, we rather prefer
to see them come. It looks like busi-
ness.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1889-10-16

A BASE FALsEHooD.-We have ascer-
tanned that it was Col. Kehoe who
started the story that We had the pro-
prietor of the Red Star Saloon lynched
by mob last week in order to avoid
paying him a liquor bill of SIS. We
encountered the Col in Davis's livery
barn yesterday, grabbed him by the
throat and backed him against the
heels of stage mule, and between US
and the mule the Col. received a drub-
bing which will last him a lifetime. He
acknowledged that he was liar, Sian.
derer and thief, and that his course
towards us was actuated by personal
spite. At that very moment he had
on our second best undershirt, our
Sunday necktie, and the pantaloons
that we never wear except on holidays,
and was in debt to us for many other
favors.
As to the lynching, we suggested it
because Tim O'Neil, the victim, had
fallen into the habit of killing man
about seven times week, and there
was every reason to believe that the
coroner was standing in with him on
the fees. We should have suggested
stretching the coroner's neck little
at the same time, but as he brought
US club of thirteen subscribers We
didn't think it would look exactly
right.
