marshal on the ground that he dis
coura ges the visits of easy-gOing cow
boys. miners. etc, from spending their
surplus funds in the city.

Office of mayor, whose principal rec
ommendation was based upon pro-
nOuncsd hostility to the reappOintment
Of Carr to the position of marshal.

maries this morning. The call is is
sued, not in the name of Democracy,
but in the name of citizens of Chey-
