Mayor Harrington and fudge Hali
call ON officer E3nrtcign Saturday
MOrning.
On Saturday Mayor Harrington, nc.
companied by Judge Ball and repre-.
sentative Of the GAZETTE, called ct the
house No. 329 East Seventh street, where
Officer Burleigh lies slowly recovering
from the brutal treatment he experienced
from the National Hall negroes, Saturday
night last.
The appearance OF the sufferer this
morning Was sufficient to arouse the
deepeat sympsthiea in the breasts of his
visitors. He 10 bR;ely able to sustain
visit and the authorities call was prompted
by jest consideration OF an officer who
riskei his life at tine demands of duty.
Mr.. Burleigh is almost q skeleton. He
recovered consciousness only yesterday.
His body is u mass OF wounds, his arms
and fingera showing the teeth marks Of
brutes who attacked him as he lay in
sensibls in the gutter. along his upper
left arm there is the imprint of double
row of teeth. The worst wounds, how
ever, are discernible on his head whore
the physician had to make several
sutures Some care and the proper
nourishing treatment will bring the
patient around In month or so. Mayor
Harrington 10 extremely soiicitous about
MIR. Burleigh, whom he prizes as one of
of the best officers on the force. Some
delioaoies are being sent to the house this
afternoon by Mr.. Harrington.
Judge Ball who is very Indignant over
the story ofvthe oowsrdly assault upon
the two officers exclaimed nThe idea
that we have no law by which such
place % the National Hall can be closed
np!"
The mayor proposes in the future to
place very heavy license upon any APP
plication for testal occasions at the resort.
A SQUAD of officers will be there on every
occasion who will make Wholesale arrests

CAN'T SWALLOW 1T.

DR.. Garrett Murphy, of Garden City,
has rendered his resignation as men,
Der of the Democratic county commit
tee to Chas. O'Connor, the chairman.
IN his letter, dated Sept. 18th, he says:
81 hereby tender my resignation as a
member of the Democratic county COM
mittee for this district, to take effect at
once. [ do this because l do not feel
that | can conscientiously support a
nomination, or nominations, dictated
by the st. Paul bosses in the interests
of VIM r. Merriam or those gigantic
corporations of which he, as well as GER
tain Democratic aristocrats, have shown
themselves the plant and efficient SER
wants. The action of the Democracy in
nominating railroad attorney for gov
ernor of this state, with the utterances
of the candidate in accepting the NOM
ination, absolves me from all interest in
the campaign. With Gen. Pope retired,
and Mort Wilkinson nominated to 90
through the farce of another canvass
and ignominious defeat, falling far short
of his party vote, I do not wish to en-
courage, nor in any way contribute to
such a disgusting performance"
DR.. Murphy has for years been one
of the most active members of his par
ty, and his detection is a very significant
fact. He took the most active part of
any delegate present at the Democratic
county convention, and his loss to the
party will of itself be serious blow;
but he is only one of number of Dem
ocrats who have been forced by bossism
to leave the ranks of their party. Their
silent protest must inevitably have its
effect.

An Insult to the Soldier.
Mapleton Enterprise.

Mapleton Enterprise.
The action of the Farmers Alliance
convention last Friday, in naming A. r..
Pau for Senator in place of Gen. E. M.
Pope is one of the mysteries of political
manipulations, as he represents any
thing but that which the farmer wants,
while Gen. Pope has always labored
against monopolies and for the people.
His work stands for itself and his record
in the senate of Minnesota has, we
think, few equals in that line of legisla'
ton. In behalf of the old soldiers he
was instrumental in placing five distinct
laws affecting their interests upon the
statutes and his rejection was an insult
to that element.
