SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

q. NJ. Halls well known aud
oyerpowering love for the dear
people was never more conspic-
uously displayed or strIkingly
illustrated than when he was
elected on the republican ticket,
county clerk of old Bent county
when it included Otero county.
SO you will observe, dear reader,
that Mr. Hall has had taste OF
PIE in this county. He liked it
SO well that he nudged Alexander
to make howl to have it passed
again so he could get second
piece. As above stated, he was
elected and the night following the
day that he took his Office the re
cords were destroyed by FIRE. This
necessi ated the re filing OF every
deed and mortgage etiecting the
property OF the county. Here was
a chance for Mr.. Hall to show his
love for the dear people. He could
have hired deputy and charged a
reduced ter for retlling, which
would have been of real benefit TO
the people, as many OF them We're
poor and could i'll afford this
double expense, Or, yes he loved
the dear people. We are told that
he did the work himself and
charged the iu.l fee IN every in
stance. He is said to have clean
ed up about $50, 900 IN the two
wears tha, he held the office. No
wonder he nugcd the Rocky Ford
Tribune TO holler for more pie.
He tried to get a nomination,
but even the $40, 900 demonstra-
ton OF his great love for the dear
people wouldn't save him and the
republican convention turned him
down good and hard. This $40,
900 is probably the basis OF the
unselfish labor he has since been
performing for the dear, darling
gust before election) people out
OF the fullness OF the love that is
IN his heart Tor them. = Rocky Ford
Gazette.
