THE TOWLES OUTRAGE.
His Desk Broken Open by His
Brother.

The following came to light the past
week and The Globe gladly gives it to the
public:
During c. B. Towles' confinement to
his bed from serious Illness, complicated
by street-car accident, over year ago,
H. O. Towles and G.. G. Bryan made his
office a sort of rendezvous, Zenas G. Rob
bins occasionally visiting the same and
keeping them company. 1t was at this
time that G.. b. Towles' desks, which he
had securely locked, were forcibly broken
open by H. o. Towles, and his books and
papers taken therefrom. H. o TOwles
admitted to party subsequently, that he
had done wrong, but to others he said it
was by orders of the United States district
attorney or United States msrshal, which
OF course was untrue,
Valuable papers, which would have
thrown a good deal of light uponthe case,
as testimony. at the trial Of G. B. Towles
were also taken from his safe, which had
been left unlocked In neither case have
books or papers been returned.
G. b. TOwles has suffered in silence
and although badly treated by his brother
refused to have him arrested for breaking
his desks open, when advised to do so by
his friends they alleging that he did not
deserve any consideration whatever, in
view of the extraordinary and unparal-
leled course he pursued in making allie.

in aiding to have him indicted before the
grand jury.
Drastic measures would have been
taken last summer before trial, by @. b,
Towles' attorney against H. o. Towles
ct al. for perjury, but c. B. Towles re.
fused to encourage or countenance same
where it involved his brother, hoping that
something would be done to avoid any
further scandalin the matter. justice has
been thwarted and the truth must now
come out. H. O. Towles can no longer
play the innocent.
He is equally guilty with Zenas c. Rob
bins and G, c. Bryan, and being broth
er his crime is damnable. Information
has reache d this Office that steps are being
taken for the arrest Of H. o. TOwles and
that the evidence for conviction is ample.

THE PAP SUCKER

The contract for printing the school

tract awarded smounts to about $1,000
per annum. 1t Is somewhat strange
that Mr.. Harry Thombley, the afore -aid
secretary, covld not find a Washington
firm to give this contract to. The Gu
rious thing about this matter is that Mr..
ThOmbley, who was secretary of pros
porous building association, resigned
that lucrative position to take the school
board sccretaryship, when pays only
$500 per annum. But stranger still,
after the award was made to the Balti-
