OF CURRENT INTEREST.

4 parasite bOhbed up in a New York city court the ether day in the shape
 of an old, venerable looking, white
 haired, shabby genteel man belonging
 to the active corps Of Ambulance
 chasers." The charge against him is
 subOrdination of perjury, and strong
 affidavits showing that he hired wit
 nesses to swear falsely are in the
 hands of the prosecution. In polite
 criminal circles the prisoners profes-
 sion is labeled accident adjuster." :"
 This species of parasite follows ambu- lancGS, and in case of accident tries to
 get injured persons to bring suit against the parties supposedly respOn- sible for the accident. The parasite in
 question is alleged to be one of a band which for years has made a living by providing dishonest attorneys with ma
 terial on which to base damage suits in accident eases against wealthy firms and corporations. It has been the
 business Of these men to keep a sharp lookout for accidents, TO matter how trivial, and provide witnesses on whose perjursd testimony suits fer damages might be based. He is raputed to have been one of rhe most successful opera
 tors in this class. To aid himself in his business he SC. up a school fer in structiOn in perjury. Here, for small sums, willing pupils were taught to memorize typewritten false testimony Rehearsals were held prior 10 the liars appearance in the temple Cf justice, the crooked lawyer putting on the fin ishing touches, which had to Go with afidavits, the amount Of damages asked for, and so on.

IT Is a fact that more than one
employe of the penitentiary, in uni
form, is away from that institution
actively working for the fusion ticket.
Whether these employees are being
paid for the time they are absent we
cannot say. Whether they are at
work under the direction of Warden
Hoyt or Governor Thomas we cannot
say. We do know it is an unprece-
dentsd action and should not con-
tinue. Warden Hoyt has received too
much support from Canon republicans
in all his ambitions and troubles to
turn his guards and employees into a
pack of ward hsslers to do political
service for any party.

PUBLISHES A CARD.

W. B. FELTON, publishes a card in
the Clipper explaining that he is not
to be bla'ned for the passage of the
stock brand law. which has proved
such a nuisance and expense to the
stockmsn. He says:
Il desire to say that had nothing
whatever to do with the introduction
or passage of said bill l have no
stock to brand and have no personal
interest, either in stock or brands.
: l was not even present in the
Senate when said bill was considered
by that body. / had never
given this bill thought and as / was
not present when it was considered
in the Senate, l did not know that
such law had been passed until my
attention was called to it after the
Legislature had adjourned"
The questions this card brings to
ones mind are: why wasn't Mr..
FELTON, present." "Why didn't he
know such q bill was before the
Senator Suppose he has NO cattle
his constituents have. Why didn't
he take care of their interests? He
was elected largely by stockmen to
represent Fremont county-yet he
says he has no interest in stock or
brands. We had not intended to
mention this matter, but his card for
ces US to remark that if Mr.. FELTON,,
by his silence or by his absence, let
this abominable measure become a law
without protest, he is as much to
blame as is any member who voted
for the bill.

MR.. HANKS WA se ELECTED.

MR. HANKS WILL De 6lkNIEO.
There is every indication that J. N.
Hanks will be elected superintendent
of schools by much larger majority
than even the most hopeful at first
expected.
Tne old timers like Mr.. Hanks which
is shown by an election in 1889. That
year he was elected county surveyor
almost unanimously, the combined
vote of all his opponents amounting
to Just NINETEEN. The newer people
like Mr.. Hanks because he Is SO much
better qualified for the place than his
opponent.
Let it be remembered that in '97
Jas. Woods in some manner beguiled
q large portion Of the prohibition ele-
ment Of Canon to support him for
Office, and his election was certainly
made by Republican votes. This year
that element is not supporting Mr..
Woods.
In '97 . large number Of teachers
Cañon City record., 1899-11-02

supported Mr.. Woods. while this year
a great majority of the county teach
ers are actively supporting Mr. Hanks.
These are some of the reasons why
the people think the county will have
change of county superintendent.

Tor the first mark. On the run down

away rapidly and by noon had a lead
of nearly a half mile.
