y great hullabaloo is being raised by the
whiskey ring in this town against our new

crime irrespective of any one. The ring
that is making all this noise, is composed
Of besotted whisky buns, transients and
dissatisfied Office seekers. Nine out of the
ten don't pay one cent into the county
treasury for taxes, and are sponging off
the people for what they live on. The
Tribune has been used by them to pour out
their walls of wrath upon the head of At
torney Wallis, who ever has been the sub
iect of its vicious attacks. The subiec;
that has furnished the fuel for all this
abuse, is case of grand larceny, that has
been on trial here for the last few days

the action of the grand jury. JUAB.
