Thomas Gilday, a Justice of the peace
of Archibald borough, was In the city
yesterday seeking legal advice on a
knottyy question that was brought to
his attention Saturday. He visited the
district attorneys Office and laid the de-
tails Of the case before Mr.. Jones' as

Mr.. Gilday stated that on Saturday

that he was acquainted with the facts
in the case Of Thomas Grady, who Is
charged with assault and battery by
Mrs. Bridget Munley, and that Dougher
knowing this called on him and read
what purported to be a subpoena COM
manding him to appear before the
grand jury and give testimony. Con-
nors claims that he afterward ascer-
tained that Dougher was not the pos
SCISSOR Of subpoena at the time he
called on him and he wants to punish
the officer for what he believes was an
illegal act.
Squire Gilday agreed with Mr.. Con-
nors that the constable's conduct was
highly reprehensible and that he should
be punished. He carefully examined
his Purdon's Digest and Binn's Justice
to see what the offense was scheduled
under. but after examining all the law on
the subject at his command the squire
was unable to decide what charge he
should specify in the warrant. He was
convinced that 1t was either misde-

sance in office or perjury, but Just

under he was unable to decide and re-
solved to postpone action on the war;
rant until he sought legal advice in this
city.
Last evening the squire returned to
his home determined to issue a warrant
for the arrest Of Constable Dougher
on q charge of misdemeanor in Office.

Again, several communications are
perforce laid over until next week.
In this paper will be found the an
nouncement of Frederick Cureton for
Commissioner of Public Schools for
Iron County. His announcement
should have appeared last week: but
owing to the rush attendant upon get
ting out the yearly financial statement
OF the county-covering ten columns of
figures and split justifcation-it was
overlooked. The editor regrets the
occurrence. but hopes and believes it
will work no prejudice to the interest
OF the party most concerned. Mr..
Cureton, though young man, is well
qualified to fill the position he seeks,
and should he be selected he will de-
vote his attention and his utmost abil-
ity to the faithful discharge of the du-
ties thereof. We commend him to our
readers as faithful. capable and ener-
getic. His qualifications are set forth
elsewhere.
