WAS a BAD GUEST.
Alice Wall Says Raymond Huffman Stole
Her Pccketbook and Money.

Raymond Hoffman, rather inoffen-
sive looking Irishman, was run in yes
terday by Officer John Kerwin charged
with grand larceny.
Alice Wall Says Raymond was
visitor at her house and when she went
out to get some more whisky that Ray
mond escaped taking her pocketbook
containing $40 in money.
She came down TO the police station
yesterday and said she wanted TO see
Hoffman. John Fisher brought Hoff-
man out in the hall and Alice proceed
ed to roast him in a most shameful man
-ner.
She declared that she would pound
the life out of him and thrash the earth
for miles around with his worthless
carcas only if the policeman would
turn him out.
Hoffman declared that they might
burn him at the stake or hang him but
he never took a cent of money from
that woman. But Alice swore out
warrant charging him with grand
larceny and Raymond Hoffman went
below.

cause is as yet unknown, but TIE gen.
eral opinion is that it originated from
spontaneous combustion. Within
minute after the alarm was turned IN
the fire boys were on the spot ready for
work. The door 70 the stairway going
to the upstair room was locked and
piles of ladders and other things were
stacked UP against it. 1T took the boys
some time to break the door down and
get up stairs with their hose, but they
made up for lost time by their efforts
when they did get inside. Nobody was
hurt. One OF the firemen came very
near being disfigured. On the west
side of the building the hook and lad
der boys had stopped their wagon and
were climbing up the side of the build
ing like so many spiders. One of the
ladders accidentally fell, but fortu-
nately there was no one on it at the
time.
Although not positively known the
damage will probably amount TO sew

MUST RUN THE GAUNTLET.
City Clerk, Treasurer and Attorney Must
Now be Elected by the People.

The local politicians who have been
in communication with our representa-
tiveS were somewhat excited yesterday
morning over a. dispatch from Topeka
which said that the bill making city
clerk, treasurer and attorney elective
offices would surely be signed by Gov
ernor Morrill, and would become a law.
Heretofore these officers have been
appointed by the mayor and the various
candidates for each appointive Office
have figured largely in the election of
mayor.
The voters who do not have much
idea of ever running for office or of
being appointed to any position are as
a rule in favor of the new law. They
all want chance TO vote for the men
who shall fill these offices.

such course--by thus prostitutiug the
columns of newspapers having any claim

We mistake the fair-play sentiment that
pervades every American breast, and es-
pecially characterizes western people, if
these dirty sheets are not rebuked by
many of their patrons for the course they
have pursued in this unfortunate affair.
But has the supreme court been guilty OF
any crimef With what are it's members
charged that they deserve to have applied
to them such choice epithets as are used
by the Citizen and Chieftain? Are men
who undertake to uphold the law, main
tain good citizenship and sustain the
dignity and purity of the bench and bar
possessed of no rights, in the eyes of the
people of this territory, which these

bound to respect?
