T. G, H.nry's Complaint.

! 1t was the proud Nboast Of II u
Henry that when he left this city for
Colorado he took with him over
100000 in cash and good securities
the result OF his business ventures in
this county from the time Of the be-
ginning Of his greater enterprises
here, about 1874, to the time Of this
departure-lSSS. 1t must be remem-
bered that all this fortune was accu-
mulated during the time that the laws
that he complains Of so bitterly were
in operation He began life in this
county as laboring man, blowing
for bis daily bread, and was able IN o
few years to amass a fortune. But
he left here because the ventures that
he was engaged in were not Of sum
Gent magnitude for his ideas. lie al
ways saw something larger ahead ana
it has led him a sad chase through
life. There have been those who have
questioned the honor Of his dealings
with those for whom he did business.
OF this we do not purpose to speak,
There we're many mortgages in this
county handled by his firm that had
to be paid second time, but whether
he or some Of bis employees were
guilty Of the culpability that caused
so much hardship, is a matter that
does not bear upon the situation.
The essential fact is that Mr.. Henry,
in his long scresd ascribing the evils
that have beiallen him to the lack OF
free silver laws, is a very unreason-
able man. He has none to blame but
himself and bis oer-weening ambl-
ton to fence In the earth for his own
private use. He made half ia mil
lion here and went to Denver and lost
it. He sunk $l75,OOO in circle rail-
road and exposition park before he
had been there year. He dabbled
/ in a newspaper and sunk a 100000
, more. Then he went into the ditch
business and the rest went, together
with as much more. That Is the way
that Mr.. Henry has done business in
the past 20 years and surely the brave
thing to do would be to take the re-
sponsibility himself rather than to sit
around and blame the laws that while
they allowed him to make half mil
lion did not legislate into his brain
the disposition to manage the fortune
SO that he might retain it by letting
dazzling schemes and speculatlons
alone. Mr.. Henry is an embittered
! man on life's shady =. e, looking back
on ruin and failure.
