fight against the veteran treasurer look
ed at one time as if it would cost him
his official life, but the influence of pro-
minent people, and his long service,
saved him. To compromise, an assist
ant was chosen, in the person Of E. w.

was made necessary by Mr.. BartOn's in
capacity, and therefore his salary must
suffer in consequence.
