Sundays Durango Democrat, under
the head "Another One Gone,n gives
n certain Mr.. Ewing an extended write
up. The item, in part, saidi 'Rumor
was rife yesterday on the street as to
where is Ewing?' His landlady says
tise got his baggage out and wiped Du-
range mud off his heels without as
much as fond farewell TO her or any
one else" He was also blamed for
being partly responsible for the issuing
of the illustrated edition OF the San
Juan Guide.
The aforesaid Mr. Ewing landed in
this village last February with ii
special edition" bug in his cap, and
thinking that we looked "easyn pro-
ceeded at once to unfold his plan to
us, which, in brief, wils that we were
to assist him in "heecing" the business
men of Dolores and vicinity and fu rnish
any ready cash that might be lie eded
to complete the operation, for which
we were to "hold the bag'' and receive
the cussings while He would take care

At that time Mr.. Ewing was acting
hs "wet nurse" to the Durango Demo

Of Recommendation as TO his honesty,
integrity and executive ability that
should have given him "ciheh" on h
Job as general manager of the Standard
oil company or sky pilot of the Brook
lyn Tabernacle. After reading his
letters of recommendation we decided
that this town was too small for a man
of such ability and that he was far too
honest to make q sutcess out of n
special edition.
Mr.. Ewing and wife remained in
this town about a month, during which
time he solicited q few dollars worth
of job work for the Durango Democrat.
He left here for Arloa where, lie said,
