That Opinion,

Lockwood thought to forestal the city
council by pulling on them a legal Opin-
ion, gotten up by respectable law firm,
TO the effect that an ordinance printed in
the Express was not in accordance with
HOyle. This opinion is like the opinions
of lawyers, submitted everyday to judges
and cOurtS,-Subject to correction and re-
futation by opposing opinions: they don't
settle legal QueStionS-Jhe courts do that
But Lockwood constituted himself the
supreme court of the state and refused to
hear any opposite opinion. GewhiIlikenS,
how big this fellow has grown since he
stepped into Callaghan'S old shoes Cal
laghan would have had more sense than
to do this. The city is provided with a
city attorney to furnish it with legal ad-
vice, and il that officer makes mistake,
why the city has to bear it, but if the city
goes outside, or the mayor assumes to act
for the council and goes outside and gets
legal opinions, no one need pay any at
tentiOn to such opinions.
The truth is, the opinion was trumpcd
up for the occasion. to cover up a very
ScaIey piece of election triCkery.-a sort of
blind to give an excuse to the brief termed
mayor to work his bUlldOZing game on the
council. 1t didn't work. Lockwood bOlted
but the council stayed.
who pays for that opinion ?" asked
Alderman Guerguin. Never mind" re-
piled LOCKWOOD" much as to say that's
none of your business. LctuS ask MessrS.
Barnard & McGOwan. Do you do business
for nothing; if not, who paid for the
opinion? Was it Lockwood, or did you
send your bill to the Shardein committee?
Or did you do it for love and affection for
Lockwood? No doubt you will answer:
none of your buSineSs!" But why do
you want to stick your nose into another

ness? Bah! Lockwood is somewhat of a
lawyer himself, he just wanted you to
take out license to practice before him;
and put on his hat and bolted. you thought
when Lockwood got down off the bench
court had adjourned, when in fact, it was

H0EEujrNG'S POINT.

When Mayor Lockwood refused to put
the election ordinance to vote of the
council, he remarked that he was not 60
ing TO be made a tool of. Alderman
HoeIling replied that 1--WE don't want to
make a tool Of you, but if you think this
ordinance is not legal you can veto it,;
but explain 10 the council In what par
ticular it is Illegal"
Lockwood was up tree, so he replied
that it did not comply with the state law
as it provided for four judges instead of
three in addition to the presiding Judge.
HOetling came back at him: Then il you
invoke the st&&e law,y had no authority
to appoint the presiding judges, that is
the duty Of the county commissioners I'M
der the state law"
But Lockwood was there to play legiS-
lature, supreme court, Jim HOgg and
Julius Caesar over the city and he paid
no attention to Hoefling'S thrust, and be-
gan to pick up his hat and lawbook, pre-
paratory to his colt.

A horse thief Is a saint, when compared
to ballot box suffer.
A common chicken thief is less danger
GUS to the community than a dishonest
election judge.
Captain Shardein certainly is an honest
man, and with "a heart as big as an OK"
Is he not in favor of a fair election and
an honest count?
Captain Shardein is too good man to
be used as a tool for such political harlots
as Hogg, Callaghan and Lockwood, and
should step down and refuse to run with
any such combination.
The penitentiary doors are wide open
Let the people be ready next Monday to
enforce the law.
Will such men as George Dullnig, Geo.
Stumberg and Ed Kotulla, who bear a
good business name in the community,
give their sanction to be elected by fraud,
or any manipulation of the peoples bal
lot.
Every wavering voter should now cast
aside all personal feelings for any partic-
ular candidate, and vote the straight Pas
chal Anti-City Ring ticket from top to
bottom.
