Wants $4,000 Damages for Libel.

Thursday summons and complaint
were filed with the Clerk of the Circuit
Court IN an action brought by john F.
Hughes, attorney for D. M. Smith in
the Sheriff controversy, against John
H. Gropengieser, editor Of the WATCH
MAN, alleging that by reason of a
certain publication in our issue of
March 10th he (Hughes)was damaged
to the amount of $4,000, and praysthe
court for Judgment for that amount
against us. This is the first intlmation
we have had that the WATcHMAN's in
fuence was rated up in the thousands.
It gives us a standing up among the
leading metropolitan papers that have
heretofore been indulging in the luxury
of libel suit, while the poor country
weekly has been plodding along un-
noticed trying to exc out an existence.
The case will probably be tried at the
June term of court. The report sent
out that the action is criminal libel, is
false, as it is simply civil action alleg-
ing damages to Hughes character as
an attorney.

Ferment and Foam.

Recently.the State executive COM
mittee of the less than two years old
ssreform party" held it's meeting at
Huron, mapped out it's program for
the coming campaign and closed it's
labors before the arrival of all it's men,
bers. FL. L. Loucks seems to have
been on the committee. The kickers
(not Gee Whiz he seems to fear that the
H end Of it would roast his
corns) made 1t so hot for them that
Loucks excuses the matter in column
editorial, and another meeting is called.
Considering it's tender age are not it's
political tricks something remarkable?
