GIVE rHe DEVIL MS DUE.

There has been much written and printed
concerning the Sykes scandal. There
are two things I know, or think know.
First, that a newspaper report is generally
believed, and often to the detriment of an
innocent party. Second, that knowledge
of an individual cannot be as accurately
obtained by listening to trial as by living
near to and being intimate with him for
years. Frank Sykes may be bad man, but
to be Industrious, honest and obliging, is
not indicative of badness. Keehn may be a
good man, but to be continually in broil
and failing to meet his obligations, Is not
the best recommend for good man. Quite
a number of the most influential men in the
neighborhood are of the opinion that il
Sykes had sworn as was desired in the
Frells- H enrich trial, his arrest would no,
have occurred. A NEIGHBoR.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh
that Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense Of
smell, and completely derange the whole
system when entering it through the mucous
surfaces. Such articles should never be
used except on prescriptions from reputable
physicians, as the damage they will do is
ten fold the good you can possibly derive
from them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-
tured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, o.,
contains no mercury and is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucuous
surfaces Of the system. In buying Halls

ests of all would be best subserved by
purchasing the old works at $2S, 1000, and
entered into contract with the company
to take them at that figure That con-
tract still exists, and the city is legally
bound to fulfill its part of it. When an
agreement is entered into in good faith,
and the public have full knowledge of
its details as in this case, there can be but
one honorable course to pursue-compli-
ance with its conditions In matters of
this kind, the council should be encour-
aged In its endeavors to fulfill its obliga-
tions; not hampered, discouraged and
prevented from 80. doing. Had the
enjoiners gone on with their suit, how
ever, and won it, the whole aspect of the
case would be changed. The city would
have then been released of further re-
sponsibility. But, as it rests now, the
city is even worse off than ever Aneed-
less expense of nearly $1,000, has been
incurred. An uncomp1eted contract still
stares the council boldly In the face.
With the hard times the water works
with other property has probably depre-
ciated in value, and if the plant is not
speedily purchased, the city may be
defendant to damage suit for non-com-
p1iance with its contract. Further than
proving that they have standing in
court, the plaintiffs have absolutely done
nothing for the city; but on the contrary,
caused the waste of several hundred dol
lars in worse than useless litigation.
When the case was remanded back from
the supreme court for trial, they moved
for dismissal of the cause before the
defendants had time to answer But for
this action, which was manifestly unjust,
the case would have5"come ON for trial.
Then the courts might have had an
opportunity to determine whether or not
the proceedings leading up to the bond
issue were regular and in conformity with
the law. AS it is, we know no more of
the legal status Of the matter than we
did when the suit was first brought. If
the council proceeds with the sale of
dS IL 10 ODllSCu ~ IL
will probably be deferred from consurn-
mating the deal by another injunction
suit; while failure to do do so will
undoubtedly bring on an action for dam
ages for noncompliance with the con-
tract made with the water company.
There is just this about it: The city is
bound by law unless she buys the old
plant, to pay its owners from $500 to
81, 200 per annum for five years, and if
she sets up other works in competition
she will be handing over to the adversary
an effective club to be used in beating
her own head of. In addition to this
consideration there is liable to be 1itiga-
ton of serious consequences, with no end
in prospect. 1t is a most unfortunate
condition, and is one which manly men
ought to consider with candid reason and
resolve, with neighbor1y forbearance and
patriotic concession, not to press to the
bitter end of contention and to disaster

A COMMUNICATION was handed 10 the
GAZETTTEE this .weeks.for publication, in
answer to the Times criticism of the
manner in which some football enthusi-
asts vented their feelings, duringl tie
Thanksgiving game but the article bore
no signature, therefore it was consigned
to the waste basket The author of the
communication paid his dubious co1npli-
ments to the editor of the Times, rather
than to the editorial. We remember
when Frank wouldn't be content with
ringing cowbells; nothing short of church
bells would make enough noise for him,
SO we can hardly consider his editorial to
be serious. His nerves have been in
somewhat disordered condition since his
great mental somersault, when he turned
from republicanism to democracy and it
is sometimes necessary to read his arti-
cles upside down, in order to get their
true meaning. He certainly did not in
tend to call our young ladies barbarians;
he knows they are not 1t is only his
peculiar way of expressing his adnira-
