So far as we are Informed Mr.. J. b.
Goehorn, of Moran, is an honest man
and gentleman and we would not
utter word against him as Q private
citizen. AS q candidate, however, for
q most responsible Office, It Is right
and proper that the people whose
suffrages he asks should inquire con-
corning his ability to fill that office.
We do not wish to affirm positively
that he has not the necessary ability,
but we desire to submit one question
to the candid consideration of our
readers: Is it likely that q lawyer of
great ability, of even decent ability,
after practicing law in one State for
more than twenty years, would feel
himself justified in leaving that State,
leaving practice of 20 years stand
ing, and locating in the town of
Moran? Isl likely'
In another place we refer at length
to the criticism of Capt. Ewing be-
cause of expense incurred by the
country In employing additional coun-
sci to aid him In the prosecution of
the Carter cases. In this connection
1t may be profitable to take into &C
countssthe expense incurred by the de-
PENDANTS for employing counsel. We
do not state 1t as 3 fact within our
own knowledge, but it is current
rumor that Harris & Son would not
touch the case until they were guar
anteed $1,000. while 1t is also reported
that Foust L Son were pledged fee
Of 5000. Here are 5000, to say moth
Ing Of the fees paid Mr.. Choguil an d
Mr.. Goshorn, as against $500 paid by
the county on the other side! Doesn't
it look as If the county had driven a
pretty shrewd bargain?

Mr.. Hayward is going about the
county charging that Gov. Humph-
rey gets $4,000 a year from the State.
His regular salary, Mr.. H. says, is
$1,000, but there is Sl5, 900 appropriated
for expenses of the executive Officen
which passes through the Governors
hands, and the most of which he
keeps. The Governor does get sal
airy of 5000. but beyond that there is
not word of truth in what Mr.. Hay
ward says.
P. IS. There is hardly a word of
truth in anything Mr.. Hayward is
saying on the stump this fall.

meetings read as follows: "You are
cordially invited to attend public
meeting at-on-eve evening
1890. Good speakers will be present
and the live issues of the day dis
cussed. Come out to hear them"
Nothing whatever about the bill to
show in the interests of what party
the meeting is to be held. Are the
People ashamed of their name, or do
they fear that nobody will attend
their meetings if they know before

We understand that the opposition
are trying to make point against the
Republican ticket by saying that with
one exception every man on Ii lives i'm
lola. 1t is true that, with t,Do excep-
tons, Mr.. Pearson and Mr.. Moves, all
the Republican candidates do live in
lola. But it should be remembered
that with these two excep lions, all
our candidates are already officers
and as such are required, by law, to
live at the county seat. As q matter
of fact, however, only two of them
have their homes here in any other
than an official sense. Mr.. Jacoby,s
home is the farm west of the river
and Mr.. BARRIERS home, the plaoe
where he votes, Is Elsmore township,
Only Capt. Ewing and Judge Arnold
can properly be called residents of
lola, and even one of these-Capt.

mile from the city limits.
Every candidate on the Republican
county ticket is either now q practical
and practicing farmer or has spent |
the greater part Of his life on the farm
prior to his election to the office he |
now holds. Can as much be said of |
the candidates of any other party?
We understand that ex-Treasurer

he was treasurer he kept expenses
down but since he left the office they

speeches he charged that the expen-
ditures through the treasuref's office
during the past year were 10000

UNCLE SAM'S TIMEPIECE.
What 1t Casts the Government to Wind
and Set Its Clocks.

It costs Uncle Sam thousands of
dollars ssyear to have his clocks wound
Every Monday morning you see men
going about the departments carry
ing little ladders, like those used by
the lamp lighters. Their business is
to wind and keep in order the clocks
Of the departments. Each man has
his own department or section of the
department to look after the clocks,
and this is his sole business. In
some places men are employed by tho
month for this purpose, while in
other cases the contract is let by the
month or year to some enterprising
clock repairer, who sends "jourma"
around to wind the clocks and S. 9
whether they are in order, and then
goes himself to make such repairs as
are necessary.
The cost Of winding and caring for
for the clocks in the departments runs
at the rate of SIS to 500 per month
in each department There are. in the
treasury department nearly 400 clocks.
Some of these are expensive ones and
cost way up in the hundreds of dol
lars, though the average value Of
department clocks is not more than
si5 OF $40 apiece. A good many OF
the clocks in the halls of the public
building and also those in the rooms
occupied by the heads of department.
are very valuable, costing away uE

4 Marrow Escape.

Just as the TINES had gone to press
last night, there fled into the Office
nine stalwart miners in every day
dress and asked for the boss. The
reporter at once began to wonder
what he had said or not said in the
paper that might lead to his being
mnbbed, and to think of some con-
venirnt prayer to offer up. Hastily
seizing the Office towel, the only
effective weapon at hand, he sailed
forth and greeted them.
"For the lords sake, what have we
done, now?' the reporter asked.
"Oh," said the whole nine in con.
cert, tive just came in to see you.
We came down from the Camas No.
2 mine, on the Gold Belt, to help
break the road. and are taking in the
town. OF course, we could not miss
paying the TINES visit"
The towel fell from the reporter
hand to the floor with dull, sicken-
ing thud, and he babe the boys vel.
come. They cha,ted few moments
pleasantly, ate a few peanuts, and
then wishing him a good day, passed
out in single file, as they had come.
