less of the threats made against him
by those whom he has compelled to
obey the law. The Brattleboro, VT,
Phpnix Republican) of August II,
1888, contains the following:
The Capt" or "Col." Howell, who
has been about town for two months
disappeared on Monday, the fact
first becoming known by u report from
Bernardston that he had beaten the
hotel there out of days entertain
ment, including, it is said, liquid re-
freshment. Enquiry in town proved
that he had gone away owing Mrs.
Bushnell for eight weeks board with
sundry extra items. The man Is of un-
certain residence. Hegives New York
as his residence, but says he has lived
for several years in Birmingham, Ala.
He claims an army record, says he
commanded the battery which fired
on the rioters in New York in 1863, and
talks glibly of his acquaintance with no
end OF men of distinction. He is II
gentleman In manners and address,
and a man of more than ordinary ac-
auaintance and intelligence in the
affairs in the world. He was treated
courteously by several Brattleboro gen
tlemen, though no one endorsed him
further than this, or incurred any re-
sponsibility for him. AS a matter of
courtesy he was invited to speak ut
West Brattleboro Saturday evening,
when nc gave some undoubted facts
about the condition of things at the
south. 1t is learned that he appeared
in Greenfield before coming here, and
applied for help at the Grand Army
post, but was refused when investiga-
tion showed that he had no such record
or post membership as he claimed. The
man is undoubtedly entirely inpecun-
ious. and is probably a victim of drink
ing habits. He walked to Bernardston
and walked away from here.
After a personal investigation OF the
affairs in Auditor Taylor's office, the
Ruralist publishes the following retrac-
ton:
"The Ruralist has no desire to take
advantage of political opponent and.
therefore, most willingly States for our
readers that the vouchers passing to
PeaSlee have all been laid before us,
and, from complete examination
thereof. we are satisfied that Mr.,
Taylor, on sundry times, dating from
Feb. 1st, 1890, to and including Oct. lst
1890, did, to the full satisfaction of the
treasurer, turn in the full amount of
all fees due the state of South Dakota,
including the tax from the insurance
companies, and we would add, that so
far as any statements appearing in the
Ruralist on MIR. Taylor's not properly
turning in his fees. we believe them
unwarranted after seeing these youch-

that this may be so, though we very

poor policy to place the capital at a city
