Willy WILLING MAC.
Incident Recalls a Past Estimate
of His Capacity for
Promises.
WHEN HE RBJoINED THE CORNER"

Could Not Pull Out Two Years Ago for
Republican Convention With the Same
Push of Fellows This Time All Right
Enough.
The Union of this morning affects a
disposition TO discredit any state
ment to the effect that the crafty poll
tician. McCouochie, would be guilty of
promising TO more than one of hi 5
followers political office in the event
of his election, and hence it treats the
statement that even at the present
stage of the campaign it would take
more than one of several of the office $
within the appointing power of the
mayor to go around, if the impossible
could happen and McConochie be
elected, as genial prevarication.
concocted campaign pipe story" etc.
But, it concludes, the genial prevari-
Gator hasn't quite got his nerve up to
the point of acquainting his readers
with the names of the men he has
dreamed about, and thus giving his
story even the sem blance of truth"
Since THE ARGUS is relying upon
neither genial Prevaricators nor
dreams" the Union will have to
guess again, as to the more min
ute Information it feigns to seek.
In the meantime THE ARGUS will take
the liberty of alfSrding its solicitous
friends in the morning field some
thing more tangible to think about
than what it would have told as
dreams, and refer it back to its own
columns for such information as to
the character of the willy gentleman
whom it pretends at this time to have
so innocent Il conception of, to the
end that the shock may be lessened
which will come TO it when the inform
alton which it asks shall be forthcom-
ing.
When Mac Went Back to 1.-The Corner
In its own columns of Feb. >, 1897.
replying to The ARGUS comment as
to the maneuvers of the corner" it
course. that Macs name has been
shifted from first to second place on
the corners slate and that Mac is
husting tooth and toenail to become
the nominee for city clerk. Mac has
been trying for week now to set up
his pins for his nomination, but it is
little help he gets outside of his
corner push, and the chances are
that he will cut as insignificant fig
ure in the convention for city clerk
as two years ago he cut for mayor.
Macs reputation as "a maker and break
of promises Is of a lasting description"
And since that day Of awful i'm
parchment the Union hath failed to
note reformation in the reputation it
then ascribed to Willy Mac.

may collect the insurance at his
death. Charles f. Grant was insured
for 81, 900 in the Woodmcn when he
committed suicide last July. His
policy was payable to Mrs. Frost, his

pay the claim because a married wom-

n single man. Mrs. Frost explained
that she had not lived with her hus-
uand for several years, and that she
and Grant were .ngaged to be mar
ried as soon as she got n divorce.
