SUPERVISING THE FACTS.

The public is not to be informed Of all
the facts relating to the appointment OF
Mormon polygamists to federal offices in
Utah by President Mckinley The house
committee on postofices and post roads,
which is investigating the appointment
of certain persons, alleged to be polyga-
nists as postmasters at different places
In Utah, while considering the charges
against one Orson Smith, postmaster at
Logan, Utah appears to have suddenly
become aware that certain papers pro-
duced by Gen. Bristow, fourth assistant
postmaster general, contained matters
which in the interests of the Republican
administration it would be highly indis-
Greet to make public. Therefore the
committee at the suggestion of Gen. Bris-
tow decided to consider the papers in
executive session and that they should
be withheld from the newspapers.
OF course from strictly Republican
standpoint 1t might be extremely en-
barrassing for the public to learn at this
time, when so much interest Is CEN
tered in the Roberts case, that President
Mckinley has had the pleasure Of ap-
pointing persons to federal positions in
Utah without having first ascertained
whether or not they were polygamists,
ard as such ineligible for office. And
If 1t Is now shown that evidence showing
that certain Of these appointees were
actually polygamists or were charged
with that crime was in the possession
of the postoffice department at the time
the appointments were made, 1t would be
doubly embarrassing for the president
who has had enough troubles in his Of
fetal family without the postoffice de-
partment becoming mixed up liz scan
dial.
The conduct Of Gen. Bristow and the
action Of the committee in endeavoring
to suppress the facts contained in the
papers submitted by the postofice de-
partment to the committee Is at least
suspicious, and is an evidence that there
is something being concealed which the
public has right to know.

riously Disappeared or Have Con-
ton In Said to Have Seized Upon
the Outside Agents of the Mayor.
CONSERVATION has seized upon Mayor
Kiefer's agents who conducted the raid
on Mayor" Griff1n's alleged poker room
at 65 East Seventh street last Saturday
evening, as 1t Is reported that the three
witnesses whom the Little Detective"
and License Inspector McInt1re are al
legged to have induced to gather evidence
for them In the matter have disappeared.
Detective Christensen, License Inspector
McIntire and Mayor Kiefer, however, are
about the only ones connected with the
police department who are perturbed over
the disappearance Of the witnesses, as
nearly every other member of the de-
partment is laughing in his sleeve. The
rank and file Of the department are
smarting under Mayor Kiefer's erratic
action in placing Christensen and a.
license inspector over them in authority,
and the practice of ignoring the officers
of q district when an arrest Is to be made,
and the wish Is heartily expressed among
policemen In general that the case Chris
Jensen and McIntire claim to have work.
ed up will fall through. Police officials
in a position to know declare, sub rosa,
that 1t will fall through beyond a doubt,
because they say that the report Of the
witnesses vanishing is correct.
This assertion is In part borne out by
the concern evident in the course of De-
tective Christensen and License Inspector
McIntfre for the last two days. They
have held dozen consultations, and De-
tective Christensen has been searching
the town for some one whom he will not
name. To q friend yesterday, however,
he remarked that they had gone back
on their agreement" and it is believed
that the diminutive West side carpenter
meant no other persons than those be-
lieved to have consented to act as spies
on the alleged poker room. That Detect
i've Christensen and License Inspector
McInttre have gathered no evidence in the
case themselves Is generally conceded. 1t
Is said there were no strangers at "May-
orr Grifhn's reception Saturday night,
and hence 1t Is argued that If spies were
employed In the case they must have
made their investigation prior to the
night Of the raid. If this is the case,
then whatever evidence there is, If any,
Is obtainable only from the spies. These
individuals are known now. 1t Is claimed,
and their reported disappearance Is at
tributed to remorse for the parts they are
said to have been induced to play. One
of them recently came here from North
Dakota, while the other is man formerly
In the employ Of saloonkeeper to whom
Mayor Kiefer gave a job. A knowledge
Of these facts only serves to increase the
maledictions showered upon Mayor Kefer
by the police department Every officer
in the central district Is incensed over
the mayors conduct, and many are open
ly avowing their Intentions to get even
when election time comes.

Special to the Register
SISTERSVILLE. August 6.-The in
telligence reached here yesterday OF a
terrible fight which occurred at Greys-
vile, a little town in Washington
county, Ohio, on Saturday, between
two of the merchants of that place.
From what can be learned of the affair
here, it seems that Bud" Taylor and
another merchant named Poulton have
not been ON good terms. A few
weeks ago they had wordy alterca-
ton which eliminated in blows, but
bystanders separated the belligerents,
and there the matter rested until Sat-
urday
Poulton had bene drinking during
the day and Taylor, who saw he was
getting pretty drunk. followed him
around and tried TO get him to fight.
Poulton tried to get away from his an
tagonist OF a few weeks before, but
could not. Finally ne got mad and
then the trouble commenced.
The two men commenced to swear
at each other and pull their coats.
Then they went at it hammer and
tongs and a gentleman from this city,
who was there at the time, states that
he never saw two bull dogs fight hard
er than these two men did. There was
a crowd Of about 80 men standing
around at the time and they formed a
sort Of ring and let the men go. No
attempt was made to stop them. For
a few minutes it was pretty hard 10
tell which OF the two men was the bet
ter man. Finally Poulton hit his OPP
ponent terrific blow in the face
knocking him down. He then kicked
him about the head face and body in
a most brutal manner, and injured him
to such an extent that there are grave
doubts of his recovery.
The sentiment of the community
seems to be with Poulton. All those
who saw the affair claim that he did
everything in his power to get away
from Taylor and keep from fighting
but could not do SO.
