Gentlemen, there is a big other

OF what is best and what is right.
Certainly the county does not

he was only joking With the boys. and
that nothing wss meant whom be threat

Tho crowd. however. refused to listen
and he vas ordered out OF town.
At first he declined to so. and went to
one Of the hotels to engage accommoda-
tions for the night. The hotel man hap
pened to be the father Of one OF the frog

and at last was obliged to go TO the near

to spend she night. The game depart

zion OF the affair as soon as Mr.. Holland
returns TO the city.
The above is from the Denver
Post Of Wednesday. Aug. I, and
We reproduce it that people here
may know how extremely kind and
solicitous the Post is to see that
Dolores has a good name through
out the state. The whole thing IS

From news Of the affair contained in d

that he would be dealt with severely IL
he returned in an official capacity.
According to Mr.. Hollands side OF the

misunderstanding on the part Of the
Dolores people. He claims in his letter
TO Commissioner johnson that he in no
way attempted to be offensive, as it is
charged be was, and that he did nothing

he WIS subjected.
