VETERINARY SURGEON ARRESTED.
Charged With Obtaining Horse by False
Pretenses.

Pretenses.
SAGINAW, Jan. 3l.--Jacob w. Elliott.
veterinary surgeon of this city, was
arrested Tuesday on charge of OBJ
tanning a horse under false pretenses
from Alvin III. Birdsall The complain
ant, who is an old soldier, in his deposit
ton claims that he traded horse for a
larger one, which the doctor and his
son Harry owned jointly. and which
they guaranteed to be perfectly sound,
except bunch on the left eye.
After the trade he took the horse into
Stowe e. Carriers barn, and DR.. Stowe
told him to take the horse out quick, as
he had the CHAMBERS. A few days after
wards the state veterinarian came here
and ordered Birdsell TO kill his horse
and destroy his barn, which he did. He
was poor man, and this took away his
means of livelihood. He believes DR..
Elliott, being a veterinary surgeon,
ought to have known that the animal
was diseased. DR.. Elliott in his defense,
claims his son made the trade.

MRS LONG.

We copy from the CharlottesViile
Progress the following letter to it;
Editor Progress The recent article in
your paper in regard 20 the post-olice
here. which was copied from The Rich
mond Times. seems To show certain
lack OF information upon the subject.
While the friends OF Mr.. Murphy regard
il as a point in his favor that he has
incurred the opposition Of The Times
which seems 10 be possessed by the fatal
ity OF being on the wrong side as evil
denced by its violent spasms at the
election OF Governor O'Ferral and Sen
ator Martin. yet the censure implied in
the article should. perhaps, not pass un-
noticed.
Those who have seen Mr. Murphy's
papers say that his appointment was
urged by more than three-fourths Of
the business men OF Charlottesville and
city officials OF the State. county. and
city Democratic committees. this fact
10 doubt impressed itself upon the aus
tcre morality OF The Times as an evil
dcncc OF his being the partisan poiiti-
elan" which IL termed him. IL by this
term IL is meant that under his admins
iration the post-oflice will no longer give
aid and comfort 20 Republicans and re
publicansm. the term is properly applied.
as il is his pride that his politics are
never in doubt and his party affiliations
have never afforded ground for dispute.
He did not think proper 10 base his
application for appointment on his war
record: indeed he seldom refers 10 IT.
and in that respect he would have had
but a short story 70 tell. and one lack
ing i'm interest. perhaps. except 10 the
many thousand comrades who shared fin
similar experience He was "Only
private" entering the ranks as a youth.
at Harper's Ferry. April 10. 1861; he
served through all the war. and engaged
in all of StOneWall JacksOn's cam
paigns; he fell four times. shot down upon
the field of battle. and bears now upon
his body four wounds. from one Of
which he is still a great and almost
constant sufferer. And so. while untitled
and, unfortunately, less illustrious. he was
no less true than others.
And whatever Mr. Editor. may be
the result Of his application for this
office, which by the way. is not Vet
by any means decided, he may we'll
be proud of having undertaken the
contest wherein he has received such
uniform evidence Of the esteem and
confidence of those whose good will and
appreciation is most to be desired
DEMOCRAT.
The writer of this letter seems 10 think
that The Times intended by its article
TO cast some sort Of asperson upon Mr.
Murphy. Now. The Times never before
heard Of Mr.. Murphy and did not know
that he was candidate for Mrs. Longs
place What Democrat says of him con-
stitutes for him patent of nobility
with The Times. but he ought to be too
good Confederate TO be willing TO
turn Mrs. Long out of her Office.

IF UNABLE TO CARE FOR ITSELF
THE TIMES WILL HELP THE DIS
PATCH

The Dispatch thinks The Times has "sat
up nights" as the New Englanders say,
scanning its columns to find evidence
that It knew the purpose for which the
Anderson Nc Cormick law was passed
We must assure our neighbor that IL
takes something much more important
than that to drive us into that weary
task. Rich as the find" would no
doubt be, we must frankly admit to the
Dispatch that we have never turned
back to even one of its articles. and
we were not the discoverer OF the one
which we have quoted. and which
brought out i'm such strong light the Dis
patch's knowledge that the Anderson
Mccormick law lis a white mans law.
which operates to perpetuate the rule
OF the white man" IL was sent to us 10y
correspondent in Amelia county. ana
We should probably never have known OF
1t II 1t had not been thus called to our
attention.
And the Dispatch is equally mistaken
in supposing that we have quoted II
by way of 'tu quoque" argument. We
have not quoted it as argument at all,
hut us testimony. We have said that
every man in the State knows" that
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS law was passed
that defraudng OF the negroes in the
negro counties might be made easy.
The Dispatch answered. In substance.
that it knew nothing of the kind. and
mi. H..
prove that II did know the purpose with
which the law was passed. And however
much the Dispatch may now deny il
an intelligent public viii determine that
the writer Of what We quoted knew the
purpose perfectly well. That there may
he no mistake. We quote it here again. In
it's leading editorial for August 10. 1892
the Dispatch said:
again: The Anderson McC ormick hin
was passed by Democrats, and passed
in the interest OF the white people of
Virginia, whereas the force bill, il passed
into "a law. would be measure originated
in the interest OF the negroes OF the
South. The Anderson Met ormick law
Is white mans law II operates to per-
petuate the rule OF the white man. The
of the negroes. II would operate TO place
the negroes over the whites In many OF
the southern States. and eventually 10
throw the white men cut OF power in
the South. and commit the vast section
10 the tender mercies OF the inferior race.
And yet Mr. Beverley does not hesitate
30 declare that he prefers the law which
would perpetuate the ncgros rule 10 the
law which would perpetuate the white
mans rule"
IL the writer Of this did not know
that the purpose OF the Anderson McCor-
mick law was what The Times has stat
ed II to be, then. as Talleyrsnd is said
TO have claimed, language was realty
made to conceal ones thoughts.
The Dispatch thinks II some extenuation
OF its unlucky admission that the pas
sage We have quoted Is only one para
graph out OF an article Of more than a
half column in length. 1t regrets that
II - net space to republish the whole

n there was anything In the rest OF tue

the damaging nature OF the passage
quoted, the Dispatch would have mace

therefore. the Dispatches plea must DE
