Why j. NJ. HieaieS Should get the

When able, competent and courteous

genial j. NJ. MeaIes and place him right

say that there is not another county
clerks htlice anywhere that is in more
orderly condition or run on more eco
nomicol plan. No person ever entered
his office who was not enabled to trans
act his business eIpeditiously and with
pleasure. 10 this end, Mr., Nealcs upon
coming into office, put the records in the
best possible shape for the convenience
Of the public, and has surrounded him
self with the most competent and obi
ging deputies and clerks.
Under his administration the expense
of running the office has been greatly re
ducsd,l (which is one strong point in favor
of his reelection.
Mr.. Meales has always been warm
friend to Bessemer and remembered this
end of town in making his appointments
as well as to make il a matter of conyen-
ience for Bessemer people to register
Bessemer will in turn remember the
compliment and give him very heavy
vote. This mas been quietly decided on
by the people. The steelworkers aad
smelter men will rally to the support of
Harry Meales, and thereby place him
under lasting obligations, and he is

be appreciated by them by helping US in
time of need, and carrying into effect the
truth Of the old maxim that. "a friend in
need is friend indeed.
How different is the democratic ad
mlnistration of your city Of 1897. We
have had two fires in Harlem, the first
on Sept sth in which three houses we're
burned The fire department was called,
they came but did nothing The second
fire occurred on Sept lIth, four houses
being entirely destroyed and twelve 9th
ers would have been soon reduced to
ashes had not few Of our citizens Sc
cured hose from tEe smelter and by
mere chance saved what was left of the
Mccarthy row from burning up. One
of our citizens ran to the smelter office
and telephoned to the fire department,
telling them of the danger, but no salts
faction was given and the fire company
failed to come. The occupants Of fifteen
or sixteen houses, being most Of them
renters, had to pile all they possessed
out into the streets while the flames
were coming on, burning building after
building in detail. The people looked
toward Pueblo for the fire department.
but alas, in vain. But thanks to our own
brave and industrious smelter boys.
They soon lost hope in the fire de
partment-under democratic rule-to-
ward getting the fire out. They mus
tered up what hose We had and the fire
was soon put out.
Election will soon be here and the
candidates are around telling US Of their
wonderful works. We can tell them we
are going to put the men of 1896 back in
Office, because our town is improving
and We want to keep the fires out. To
do so think We had better keep the
democrats out of the county offices.

The efforts being made by the people
OF Harlem to secure fire protection has
rekindled the flame of Indignation
against the city administration for re-
fusing to assist them at the time OF the
recent contlagration, and prompts one Of
its hustling citizens to write spirited
communication to THE INDIcAroR which
sets forth in very interesting manner
the sentiment of the Philadelphia smell
ter village toward the city administra-
ton and its fire department.
The Harlemites realize now that they
must rely upon themselves in case Of
| fire, assisted as they will be by the Gug
genheim Bros of the Philadelphia smell
ter. The citizens have proposed to or
ganize volunteer fire company and sup
ply water pipe and water attachment if
tho smelter folks will supply the hose
and reel. This arrangement is likely to
succeed, and the husky lads of Harlem
will fight the fares themselves.
To add to the unpopularity OF the city
administration and its fire department.
particularly Chief lIurd, Dursey the dog
catcher went out 10 Harlem to rope "A
few dogs, and it was lucky for him that
he was not mobbed of course he had
no business going out there as that vii
lage is outside the city limits, and the
dog ordinance clearly sets forth that
only unlicensed CANNES running at large
within the city shall be taken. But,
either ignorance Of this fact or else AFRO
eating to himself little authority, this
pet of the Pueblo Courier went out one
tine day to get load OF dogs. He was
met by a few of the young men of the
village who informed him of the duties
of his high office and that he was off his
territory. He insisted on his dog trade,
when they tin canned his old mule and
sent it flying along the highway into
Bessemcr, Dursey following, G lad enough
no doubt that it was the mule and not
himself that was tin canned. Whether
Dursey the dog catcher ever unfolded
his tale of woe to the Courier, its de
fender and exponent, history does not
relate.
Dursey claimed that the city authori-
ties sent him out to Harlem to take the
dogs or collect the taxes, the author-
ties nor himself having 10 right to do
either, and this has added to the preju-
dice of the people as it was tlagrant
wrong done them.
