Why Did He Do 1t?

Shortly after Sheriff Moore was sworn
II, some of the colored voters went to
him and asked Inn for the position of
bailiil There being several applicants
for the position, he concluded to let the
,colorcd men settle the matter among
themselves. Accordingly, a meeting was
held and an election took place. Lewis
X. Walker received large majority of
the votes, and was declared the choice OF
the meeting.
Mr.. Walker patiently waited for orders
from the sheriff, but received none. He
went to the shcrifl's Office last Friday,
but got no satisfaction. He went back
the next day, and was told to come back
Monday and prepare the jury room, He
went back as per Instructions, but was
given no work. Instead, VIM. Armstrong,
who had already bccn,uppointed janitor,
was doing the work that Walker should
have done.
The sheriff told Walker that the county
commissioners had concluded to appoint
the bailifi, but the commissioners say
they have no legal right to make such APP
pointment, and denied doing so. This
leaves the whole blame upon the sheriff's
shoulders. Why he went back on his
promise to the colored men is puzzle to
them, and they promise that Sheriff
Moore shall be one tcrmer
