not necessary now. Mr.. Bailey de-

The News, and in The Tribune. and
together they will set at rest all the
stories circulated by him, save one.
Mr.. Bailey says now that the only
story he circulated was the one that
Mr.. Tucker had held Office years. two
years as an appointee of d. ID. Camp
bell as deputy sheriff, and nearly
four years as county clerk. During
this time Mr.. Bailey has found moth

can say Is that Mr.. Tucker. having
faithfully served the people of Can

by the Republican party to serve for
another term. Mr.. fuckers salary

versy. He has accepted what the law

A Correction.

Last Saturday The Tribune was
honored by visit from Judge c. o.
Stockslager and Judge Swain Beatty.
Judge Stockslager stated that The
Tribune was in error in saying that
he had spent several hours in Cald-
well a week ago Friday. Judge
Stockslager says that he was here
only four or five minutes. He was
east-bound and simply stepped off
the train while 1t stopped in Cald-
we'll. The Tribune never Intention
ally misrepresents facts, and we are
pleased to make this correction. The
Judge further stated that while in
Caldwell on the date mentioned he
spoke to but three persons, namely.
Mr.. and Mrs. George H. Jacobs and
Mr.. D. 8. Brown.

ceived the nomination for county
clerk; and CD that he had declared
he would vote and work for Prohibi-
ton, that he was Influenced by the
nomination of county clerk to work
for the Democratic party, and that
by this action he received and ac-
cepted a bride. The nomination by
the Democratic convention and DEM
ocratic support by the News was ST.
multaneous. ! further contend that
a man who will sell his convictions
and influence for the nomination to
an Office Is dangerous man, and
that this action on his part makes
him unsafe and untrustworthy. IL
the saying that he who Is faithful
In little will also be faithful in much
Is true, the saying that he who Is
unfaithful in little will also prove un-
faithful In much Is also true.
2. l stated that MIR. Bailey was
incompetent. The position Mr.. Bad
ley desires to fill is purely a clerical
one. One of the prime requisites
OF such an officer Is the ability to say
what he means, and what Is meant.
In this article and In former articles
l have shown that Mr.. Bailey could
not do this. ! have cited the Cald-
we'll News, which paper he edits
when the Democratic committee
doesn't-as proof of the truth of
what ! say. And the selections In
this and former articles were taken
verbatim from Mr.. Badley's replies
to my articles.
8. i contend that MIR. Bailey has
no principles. l admit that Mr.. Bad
ley has some splendid qualities. He
Is a generous friend, a good neigh
Dor, and a kind and loving husband
and father. But politically he Is COL
orless. His actions as outlined above
bear me out In this statement. With
this close. THE GOAT.

A Sad Death.

Elmer Bailey, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
d. l.. Bailey, and brother of Editor
resulted from the rupture of a blood
vessel. This was an unusually sad
death. Elmer was a bright young
man of IS. He was well liked and
greatly esteemed in the community.
He was known for his sterling quail

Its heartfelt sympathy to the be-

bition which has been made by our
municipal fathers, blot out the pain
ful memory of the days through
which we are passing. and regain
confidence IN municipal wisdom viii
ch has been SO rudely destroyed.
Inevitable uneasiness is produced
by the knowledge that the praetors
are aiming to convert themselves
into guardians and defenders Of the
public health, by the expenditure
of regular sum that has to be
employed in the installation of
chemical laboratory Previous events
are in no way favorable to those un-
fortunate ediles who have earned
unanimous eensure because of their
abandonment Of a public service so
important as that of the water of San
Juan; therefore there is nothing sing

Of arousing approval and praise, me-
cts with criticisms, and mistrust, unf-
ortunately, fully justified.

the tremendous blunder which has
up to now been committed in all that
has to do with the public health and
the care that such an important mat

EDITORIAL

Our jealous Alcalde, who displays
no WEAKNESS in the Inauguration of
new projects and the planning of most
original works, now favors the ests B.
lishment Of chemical laboratory to
be in charge of municipal functio-
naries.
And as in the present budget the
re exists no provision for such an
object, it has as been thought to solicit
the Insuiar government for the conc
ession of loan in order to carry out
with all rapidity this work which
constitutes, at the present, the most
cherished project of the many that
have been conceived in the fanciful
dreams Of the municipality.
1t appears, in the Judgment of
our praetors, that the installation Of
chem ical laboratory would be of
great benefit to the Capital of the
Island; but to Us, under existing con-
ditions, the project seems one of ut
ter use1cssnes.
After what has occurred in con-
nection with the San iran acqueduct
and the things which have been said
touching the i1npurity of the drink
ing water Of the city, we are unable
to comprehend the enthusiasm of our
edlles for the latest project which
they have in mind, for snrely they
must recognize the fact that every
thing that relates to hygiene and the
public health, so far as the municipa-
lity is CONCERNED, has to be received
with reserve and suspicion by the
public
And@ur tutors cannot reasonably
comp FIN of the existence Of such
feeliqR it is entirely natural, IN the
lights the attitude of the municipal
administration, which seems to have
ignored completely the lamentable
conditions which exists in certain bra
inches Of the public service and in no
wise disturbed by the things that
