for shief Of fire department in opposi-
tion to US entered our private office un-
announced and unblushingly offered US
drink Of Grand Junction Satin's De-
light Bug juice. The profuse blood
stains on the cealing and wallis the con-
dition OF the Office fittings. and the stiff
cold form Of our victim now at the NOR

story Of what happened. BY his actions
he insinuated that our vote was for sale,
for which offence, being justice of the
peace, we herewith acquit ourselves aud

mayor, town marshall, alderman from
the 1st. and justice of the peace should
Of itself be conclusive evidence to all
thinking people that we are capable OF
being an efficient chief of fire depart

burden, and the love'for our native town

us to quick and judicious action in case
OF freor other public disturbances re-
quiring the assistance of the fire depart
ment. While our victim was our enemy
he was we'll beloved when sober, and we
have feeling OF friendship toward him
that we never experienced while he was
alive. For his sake we trust that
he has gone to that place where
he is certain to have abundant op-
portunity to display his ability as fre-
man, and win laurels such as never can
