DISHONEST DEPUTIES.
II was Just before the holding OF tho
conventions that charges OF corruption.
which had been rife for some time against
liquor deputies engaged In the seizing OF
liquor, were brought TO a head by the
trapping Of Arthur b. Leach under cir
cumstauces well remembered, and which
made IT impossible for him to deny his
guilt. Immediately after this Depsty-
Sheriff Charles A. Piummer was arrested
on a similar charge, and In bis case q
hearing was had In the municipal court,
probable cause being found, and the re-
spoudent held to await the action OF the
grand jury.
Thsse things, while the charges did not
cast reflections upon the Integrity of the
sheriff, preycd upon his mind, and prob
ably were a factor in hsstenipr the prog

steadily worse, he remained at his post
until, when the law court met In Port

advised him 10 take vacation. He went
away, and little later took up his abode
at the White Oak Spring hotel, new
summer resort four miles from Poland

Here be was apparently making good
progress towards recovery when the over

by lightning, about four weeks ago,
brought on the attack OF heart disease
which terminated fatally.
