Nevada Post; Frank p. Walsh.
attorney for Mr.. Cardwell. SAYS the
investigation now being made does
not contemplate any finding against
Governor Dockery OF his administra-
ton, as he was in no way connected
with the Irregularities charged. The
statement of Mr.. Walsh is kind but
unnecessary. In the annals of Mis-
souri, politics no cleaner record can be
found than that Of Governor Dockery.
Throughout his long public service
his name has always inspired conf
dence in the party which elected him.

murder could not have been otherwise

acquitted, can never live down this
tragic event in her life's history.

The Cardvell Case.

The Cardvell Case.
Frank p. Walsh, Planters Hotel, st
olis;
| have settled and dismissed suit
Act accordingly. w. o. CARDwELI.
The above purporting to be a tele
gram, appeared in the Post Dispatch
yesterday. If this refers to the suit
against the Republic, "a indicated by
the context Of the article in which il
appeared, and if it was written, as
p%urported, by W. o. Cardwell, then
we have to say that Mr.. Cardwell
absolutely and UNANIMOUSLY lied. This
language is used deliberately, because
it was the same language which, in
his suit against the Republic, Mr..
Cardwell declared to be libelOus. That
there may be no mistake in the
matter, We repeat that if Mr.. Card
well says he has settled and dis
missed the suit against the Republic
he absolutely and UNANIMOUSLY lies.
That he has dismissed the suit. we
cannot doubt. All adviceS are to
that effect.
That he has settled the suit is not
true, and if so stated by him, is, we
repeat again, absolutely and in
famouSlv false.
The suit was against the Republic.
1t could be dismissed by Mr.. CardwelI
without regard to the Republic. 1t
could be settled only by agreement
with the Republic. Third parties
might induce or persuade Mr.. Card.
well TO dismiss the case, but only the
Republic could settle" it with him.
Neither the Reprrlic or any Of it,
representatives settled" the case OF
ever considered the question Of settle.
meut. From the beginning the Re.
public has refused to pay one penny
has refused to retract one word, or {
qualify n expression it had pub
lished. Mr.. Cardwell knows that hi
has had no conference with any rep
resentative Of the Republic. II,
knows that he has not received on,
dollar Of the Republics money anC
from the Republic not a whisper o
apology.
1t is reported that he admits hav
ing received money. If this be true
we challenge him to state who paiC
him and how much he was paid.
In the letter of which Mr.. Card
well complained and for the publica
tion Of which he sued the Republic
there was no reflection upon his rep
utation and no impeachment Of his
character comparable with that con.
tanned in the telegram at the head Of
this article, if it be genuine
1t was the Republic he had charged
with libeliDg him, and, if his charge
was true, from the Republic his
reparation was due. To take money
from another source, and for such
money to dismiss the case. and leave
the Republic u~nrepentent and defying.
is to engage in a barter too infamous
for apt Characterization in decent
speech.
The man who does such a thing
puts his honor upon the auction block
and hucksters it in places and at
prices to suit whomsoever is willing
to buy,
The suit has been dismissed, but it
has not been settled, and will not be.
The Republic stands upon its defense
1t dareS Mr.. Cardwell to the issue
now, as it has from the beginning
1t diSayowS the payment Of one penny.
1T leaves to Mr. Cardwell whatever he
has gotten. if anything, as clear gain,
with his original stock Of uninjured
reputation intact and unimpaired.

it is alleged. that Lieut.. Harry Cooper of
the Porto Rican Battalion assaulted First
Lieut. n. r. Evans of the Americus Club
of Pittsburg with his sword. According to
the story the Americus Club was coming
up the avenue while the Porto Rcan Bat
talon was drawn up one side awaiting
the passing of the presidential party Just
as the Americus Club men reached the
front of the Porto Rican Battalion the
commanding officer of the latter organiza-
tion gave the order to move forward. The
result was that the Pittsburgers were bad
ly tostled and both lines were thrown into
temporary confusion. In trying to
straighten out matters Lieut.. Evans of the
Americus Club and Lieut.. Cooper of the
Porto Ricans got into an angry discussion
which terminated with the regular officer
1t Is said, drawing his sword and striking
the civilian over the head with it, Lieut..
Evans wore a high white beaver, which
broke the force of the bow to some extent
but as II was, he received a severe scalp
wound, which necesstated treatment in a
nearby drug store. At the conclusion OF
the parade Major Walker, commanding the
Americus Club, reported the matter to
Major Almy, commanding the Porto Ricans.
The latter expressed regret at the occur
renee. and promised that 1t should receive
attention. 1t was reported that complaint
would be made to the Secretary of War of
the alleged conduct of Lieut. Cooper, but
so far nothing has been done in that direc-
tion. Lieut.. Cooper is resident of Balti-
more and served as a volunteer during the
Spanish war. His record is good.

Winter Cucumbe

If one who is interested in things
horticultural wants to see something
calculated to enthuse him, we invite
him to pay visit to the cucumber
hot house of Mr.. A. A. Winer, in the
first ward, opposite the late residence
of DR.. Marean, now occupied by Rev.
Mr.. Coleman, pastor of the Christian
church.
The house is Of Mr.. Winer's own
design and construction and is twen-
ty-four feet wide by fOrty-eight feet
long. 1t is heated by a furnace, also
OF his own construction. The Their
mOmeter is kept at an even tempera-
ture of about siXty-eight degrees. He
has just one hundred vines. They
are highly fertilized. The p0llens are
distributed by hive of bees. The
vines which are now eight or ten
feet high, are trained on trelIises.
the seeds were planted about two
months ago and are now blossOming
and bearing most politically.
Up TO date Mr.. Winer has gathered
about six dozen fine "cukes,n and be-
fore the season is ended expects to
gather several hundred dozens The
price per dozen is very fattering, and
Mr., Winer expects the prices not to
materially go below the present fig
ures.
From this little side investment. to
which he has only devoted a part of
his spare moments, Mr.. Winer ex-
poets TO swell his bank account in the
sum of several hundred dollars.
1t is not only source of profit but
source of real enjoyment.

MAN.

When the wonderful works of crea-
ton were finished and God rested
from his labOrs, the birds sang their
sweet songs and builded their nests
the same as they do to-day. The bee
instinctively constructed its hive and
stored its honey and the beaver built
its dam. There is no variableness nor
suspicion of change. Since there has
been a written language we learn that
the ass has known his masters crib
and the OK his stall. The OK and the
ass Of the twentieth century have no
better knowledge of these things than
their remOtest ancestors had. The lion
the king of beasts-still inhabits the
Jungles and refuses to be dOmesticated.
Five thousand years have added no
Improvement in the habits, ha bitat,
nor habitations Of any of these created
things. Neither with the birds of the
air, the beasts of the field, nor the
fishes of the sea. But how the veil is
lifted when We approach man. Since
he was driven out OF the garden by
the Euphrates with only the modest
fig leaf TO cover his nakedness, note
to what heights he has climbed. He
has weighed the planets and measur.
ed the distance to the remOtest stars.
and his dwelling places are Of almost
celestial beauty. Can we not say that
He breathed into his nOstrils not only
the breath of life," animals have
that,) but part of His divinity.

Our New City Administration.

Mr.. NJ. Fishel, Ocala's newly elect
Ell mayer, assumed the duties of his
office last Tuesday afternoon, the
oath being duly administered to him
by the retiring mayor, Hon. w. :.
Bullock.
On Tuesday, night the old council
held its last meeting, and after finish
ing mp lis business, adjourned sine
die.
On retiring, Judge McConathy, the
president Of the body, expressed his
deep sense of gratitude for the honor
bestowed on him and thanked the
members for the uniform courtesy and
kindness in which he had been
treated.
The roll of the new members was
then called, and Mr.. r. Z. Yonge. Sr.,
was made temporary presiding Off
Ger.
y motion was then made to elect a
president of the council for the ensu-
ing year, and Mr.. Gordon s. Scott
was unanimously chosen.
Mr. Scott accepted the office and its
grave responsibilities with modestv
and bushes.
Mr.. +. 7. Helvenston was elected
president pro tenn by vote of six to
three.
The next thing done was the read
ing of the first annual message of the
mayor, which proved to be most
valuable document.
He recommends putting the streets
in good repair and the town in thor
ough sanitary condition in the winter
time 50 as to prevent sickness in the
summer.
He recommends retiring all out
standing scrip and Indebtedness by
bonding the city, thus saving three or
four per cent. annual interest.
He also recommends the purchase
of the water works, and putting the
water works and electric light plant
under one management.
At the close of his message the new
mayor was most heartily applauded.
The new committees will be named
at the next meeting.
The new members are F.. c. Smith,
K. r. GOnge, Sr., J. r. Martin and T.
j. Owen.

OUR JOB DEPARTMENT.

We take pleasure in announcing
that for the present year the Job de-
partment of the Ocala Banner will be
under the direction of Mr.. w. 5. Os-
born.
For five years Mr.. Osborn was a
member of the firm of the Hill
Printing Company, of Eustis, Flor
ida, and more latterly of Gaines
vile, Florida, and had sole control of
its mechanical department and large
ly gave to that printery the splendid
reputation it enjoys.
Ia the manipulation of ink and
type Mr.. Osborn stands at the head
of the profession in Florida, and is a
genius in the printing line. All the
artistic work turned out by the Hill
Printing Company, both at Eustis
ami Gainesville, was designed and
executed by him.
This department Of the Ocala Ban
ner will be improved and enlarged.
and for its success We shall depend
upon the generous patronage of its
friends and well-wishers.
