A Plain Statement.

A short time after Mr.. Plummer
left the State, the editor Of tho INDIE
PENDENT called at the District At:or-
ney's Office and was told by that
officer, Mr.. Patterson, that when Mr..
Plummer left no took with
him the books belonging to that Of
flee. He also said that he asked Mr..
Plummer for the books and that gen
tleman replied that "he had packed
them up by mistake, but that it was
no matter as he, Patterson, could get
others FROM the county"
A short time after an item appeared
n the INDEPENDENT calling the at
tention OF the Commission ers to the
matter, and asking them to inv esti-
gate it. No attention having been
paid to it, other items, concerning tho
disappearance Of State property from

peared calling the attention Of tho
Grand Jury 10 it, and asking for an
investigation. The matter came up
before the Grand Jury last Saturday
and that body instructed one of it's
members 20 write TO Mr. Hiunmer,
Informing him that il he did not re-
turn the property the next Grand
Jury would indict him. The letter
was written, and the books were re-
turned on the 18th Of this montL.

believe that but one book, worth six
bits was taken, he should consult

on him. :

It's issue Of July 20 contained a piece OF
news the effect Of which was, IL may
be said, tremendous both in the old
world and the new.
The article In question had been
taken from an Australian paper, the

follows:
at will be remembered that the last
attempt, made seven years ago by the
Molly's Hope, 10 discover what had be-
come OF the survivors Of the Dread
naught ended in nothing, and the be-
lief was forced upon the world that they
had all persisted, either before running
on Browse island or after leaving II.
The mystery still remains as great as
ever, although one Of the officers OF the

II Is none other than Harry Shelton, the
mate Of the clipper ship. lie was found
on the banks OF tho Paroo, one OF the
branches OF the Darling, almost on the
boundary line OF New South Wales and
