The people of Ara oahoe county kno0
good thing when they see it and it ha
become second nature FOR them tt
promptly start some scheme to CORA
every good thing they can discover with
IN the limits OF the state. The Arapa
noes have recently discovered tnat ou
district judge, Jay H. Boughlon, is on
of the hardest workers in the state. hold
ing court so continuously that he is keep
ing his docket in every county wei
Gle ared p and at the same time carry
ing on this work at very great reduc
tion of expenses to the taxpayers.
The result of this discovery has bee1
the introduction of Senate bill No. I2s
by Thomas of Arapanoe, to consolidat
this judicial distric', the entire Thlr
teenth district and all of the First excep
Grand county, with Arapahoe county
and to reduce the nu nber of judges fror
eight to seven.
They evidently believe that if the
could get Judge bou ,hton into their dis
trict he would not only work so hard a
to clear up their doa ket, which is nov
far behind, but that he would also &C
complsh as much as any two of thel
present judges and so they could di:
pense with one of them and Arapaho
county could save his salary.
The scheme is good one for Arapa

would enable the saloon interests i

Hong Kong state that the Filipino
agents are circulating the statement that
the Americans have stationed wal vessels
along the shores of Manila bay and
without notice this morning began a
bombardment simultaneously upon

claim that the slaue hter of defenseless
women and children was terrible. They
state further that the Americans are
burning and devastating throughout the
'sland and every indication is that their
war is one of determination. They are
now shooting the Filipinos wherever
found and extending no quarter The
Filipino agents are crazed with indigna

going to appeal TO the nations of Christ

LETTERS FILED.

Explanation of A LEGGED Unpaid Judgments
= Against A. w. Mausur
Without any notification whatever to
the street railway company and in the
absence Of Mr.. Mansur, the mayor on
last Monday night at the council meet
ng, announced that unsatisfed judg
ments stood on the records of the Arapa-
hoe courts against Mr.. Mansur. This
statement has called forth refutation
from those interested in the road. The
rail way company has filed with the city
:lerk two letters addressed to the mayor
and city council, one from Mr.. Mansur
and one from MIR. w. B. Morrison, the
assistant cashier OF the National Bank OF
Commerce of Denver. These letters,
which are now on file with the city clerk
explain themselves and are as follows:
Denver, Colo., Feb. 8tn, 1899.
To the Honorable Msyor and City Coun
Gil of Boulder, Colorado,
Gentlemen:-My attention has been
called by Judge Deane to the effect that
TWO unsatlshed judgments appear on
record against me. The enclosed letter
from the National Bank of Commerce
explains one of these judgments, which
mas been entirely sltistied, and the other
occurred in this way: Some three or
four years ago loanrd to one John Nc
Cartney about $4,000 in several sums
He was. at the tine. engaged in the lum.
Der business and fer some reason failed
10 pay his men. AS some OF the business
was conducted through my Offices, sew.
eral of the men ate npted to hold me
responsible for their wages. A case
similar to the one of record was tried IN
the court, and It wss plainly shown that
was in no way liable. During my alb
sence John Hlpp, attorney, took uF
another similar case and by some means
obtained judgment because no one ap
peared. was never served with any
uOllCe OI suit, anu lulS Vc1utCt was CYL
IDENTIFY by fraud of some nature. This
judgment has also been satisfied ane
assigned 10 me, and am now arranging
to bring suit against John Hipp, attorne,
IN the case, with a view Ct making hin
show the exact process of procedure il
obtaining this verdict.
If you have any further doubt in re-
gard to my ability to pay the bond, which
jointly signed, with hve others. car
readily satisfy any one who cares 10 in
| vestigate, tina, can pay the bond te,
times over.
The above mentioned suit was brough
against John Mccartney, and l wa
made party to the suit. never had I
suit broug hit against me personally ane
alone. Yours Very Truly,

To the Honorable Mayor and City Coun

Gentlemen:-Some time ago Mr.. A
w. Mansur of this city, signed join
note with Speaker William G. Smith Of
he present General Assembly. fol $4,000
in favor of this bank. (Mr. Mansur nov
states that this was an accommodation
note) A judgment was obtained against
the makers jointly, but Mr.. Mansur ha.
paid the note in full and judgment ha:
been assigned to him, so as to help ii
the collection from Mr.. Smith, and a:
the assignment of the judgment has very
probably been withheld from the record
the record shows it as unsatisded against
Mr.. Mansur.
This statement of facts is made At the
request OF Mr.. Mansur.
Yours Very Truly.

So far the attack on Mr.. Mansur ha!
simply acted as a boomerang upon it:

sitlon to the railway enterprise does moi
result in discouraging the promoters, i
will not be the fAult of these one sidec
