The officers should receive the
Outspoken encouragement of every
citizen of this city who is in favor of "A
more cleanly moral condition. The
recent movements of the officials lead
TO the belief that they are earnestly
and conscientiously trying to break up
lawlessness in Logan and they should
be made to feel that their efforts are
appreciated. True, it is their duty to
see that the law is obeyed, but there
is much more of an incentive to effort
in the performance Of duty when it is
felt that the better class of peo-
Pile are really backing them in the
matter. 1t is as much of a mistake
10 withhold encouragement at the
right time, as it is to censure at the
wrong time.

This will be put in at as early a date
as possible.
a statement of the affairs as they
now exist in Logan, including a re-
port of the utteranceS at the FAST
meeting last Sunday, has been sent TO
Washington and the attention of the
Senate Committee on Privileges and
Election will undoubtedly be called TO
it,"
This extract is wholly without truth,
and Mr.. G.. II. Place, the kilograms
representative who came to Logan
Thursday night to secure the infor-
nation for the article which was
given such prominence, could not
have gotten this part out of anything
but his thumb. There are not half
dozen Gentilcs in business in Logan,
and an interview with these leads to a
refutation Of the statement. The
Gentilcs have been and still are ac-
corded every courtesy.
SO far as the power plant PROPOSE
ton is concerned, there is no sectarian
fight Oh in any sense. Nearly two
years ago the agitation for city
light plant was begun. The city had
certain rights in the canyon which
would he forfeited in case action was
not taken to secure them. The Her
cules people were giving excellent
satisfaction at that time and rates
on lights that could not be questioned.
However it was deemed best that the
city possess a plant OF its own, first,
to secure its canyon rights (Which it
might want badly after they were for
feitcd) second, as "a revenue producer.
There was vote on bond issue
and that carried. Work on the plant
and system was begun early last sum-
mcr and the same is now very nearly
completed. Immediately after the
bond issue the Hercules people raised
the price of lights very nearly two
thirds and there has been some i'll
feeling since. The Hercules people
have been referred to as foreigners, "
not in the sense that they are Gentiles,
but that the people operating the
system are from out of the city.
The Telegram has misrepresentcd
this matter wholly and has done itself
no good here. If such a statement as
this has been sent to Washington
then there should be another refuting
it. The situation here is not critical
and Gentiles are not afraid of being
murdered. The people here are stirred
over the situation. as matter of
course, but there has been no overt
act or expression that would warrant
the kilograms statement in regard to
business conditions.
The Gentiles of this city will stand
pat on this.

OF course Congressman Howell will
be a candidate for reelection. That
statement has been made by those
having authority to make 1t. Mr..
Howell has made II very good record
while member of the house. OF
course he has made no long speeches,
but it must be remembered that there
are but few strong speakers in the
house. A select few from both parties
do the talking, while the balance do
the voting. Mr.. Howell has been in
line with is party on all its policies,
and has been fortunate in securing
legislation affecting his consistency.

Received in Maryland.


Ernest Peacock the young man who was
shot in the abdomen about week ago dur
ing a row near Seneca Md. as stated in
The Star at the time, died at Garfield Hos
pital about O'Clock last evening. His death
was due to peritonitis following the wound.
AT the time the wounded man was brought
here 1t was said that he had received his
wound during a row with another man on
Selden's Island. The island is within the
Jurisdiction of Maryland. Peacocks intes-
tines were punctured in a number OF. places
and his family physician, DIR. holland,
brought him here for treatment. The police
were told that the trouble between the men
occurred about girl. but another version of
the affair was that they had some words
about their work. Undertaken George w.
Wise took charge of the remains and re-
moved them to his establishment in George
town. Arrangements were mad. to ship
the body to Ashburn, Va, this afternoon,
but Coroner hewitt could not approve the
certificate in view of the allegation that a
crime had been committed and directed that
the body be held for the proper authorities.
States Attorney Peter of Montgomery coun-
" was communicated with by Captain
Boardman and he said he would send for
the body to be removed to Rockville. The
Identity of the man who did the shooting is
known, but he has not yet been arrested. 1t
is probable that the inquest will be held at
ROCKVILLE Monday. The deceased was TWEEN
ty-nve years old and lived at Ashburn.
