Treat All Alike.
(Communication.)

The order for the removal OF all oh
structions on Main st,eet l believe to be
most commendable one, but let it ap-
ply to all alike. Do not compel our
willing to spend their time and money
towards the advancement of any propo-
sition beneficial to the city Of Grand
Junctioa, to do that which is not de-
manded OF corporations. Clear the
street Of everything, including all elec
trio poles, anchors, etc. Make no excep-
lions in favor of any one, then we will all
be the more willing to comply with an
order which is in the right direction

the young station keeper with revolvers

mead with gun. and Bill McKandias
struck with bowie-knife, only to bury
It in the table and with bullet in his
heart, to suddenly terminate a career
which had furnished an infinite variety of
interest for the sheriffs and vigllants
OF several counties. The rusty stove fell
from its insecure foundation across the
surging combatants, mixed in inextrica-
Die and sansuinary confusion. Outside a
horse broke his hitching strap and nal-

beneath the weight of a thousand pounds

door, and catching a glimpse of the brown
prairies outside which looked good to him
suddenly reached the conclusion that he
did not really need any stage company

By this time the affair had ceased to
have for the other four horse fanciers

the long-haired brigadier. who spoke so
well of him. He had no quarrel with any
one in the Hills, but Aug. 2, 1876 the man
who sat across the little round table from
him got up, dropped his cards, walked out
the back door, in a moment entered an
other with a six-shooter in his hand,
stepped behind Hickok, and shot him to
death without a seconds warning. SO
strong was his instinct of caution, so dett
the hands that had kept him in frequent
battles, that even as his head fell forward
on the little gambling table his hands had
drawn both pistols, ivory-handled gifts OF
the Union Pacific Railway, half from
their holsters. The assassin was actuated
by the same silly vanity that moved the
wicked fool who fred the Ephesan dome.
He wished to be known as the man who
killed WIND Bill. He was tried by jury
of his peers in the United States District

in the thorough self-possession that made
IL possible for him to take advantage OF
