GOD HATES A COWARD

Sheriff Henry, of Eagle county. is
out with letter in which he ac-
knowledges the receipt Of numerous
anonymous communications from
parties who propose to give informa-
tion concerning violations of the law.
but tile sheriff wisely says he will
pay no attention to such alleged COM
plants for the reason that they indi-
cate nothing as to the credibility of
the informants He calls attention to
the fact that the sheriff receives no
salary. but his remuneration is en-
tifely from fees, and that the law
provides no fee for the sheriff acting
in the capacity of policeman or de-
tective.
Mr.. Henry takes the right view of
the matter, only he should go further
in his letter and tell some more
truths.
The Post has had some experience
with anonymous letter writers who
have burning desire to exploit some
great wrong through the columns of
newspaper. There is the man or
woman who brings the editor an ar
ticle telling of the awful sin of Mr..
So-and- so, and who if asked to back
that article with their signature
throw up their hands and declare they
would not dare do such thing, and
yet they expect the editor to father the
miserable bastard and fly into rage
If he isn't willing to do it.
And even worse than this Is the
coward who will not even make his
identity known to the editor but
sends his communication thoroughly
disguised, evidently expecting that
we are silly enough to make a sewer
of our columns by publishing the rot.
We have no more knowledge of
the identity of Mr.. Henry's CORES
pondents than he has, and perhaps not
as much, but ordinarily the person who
has not manhood or womanhood
enough to meet an issue squarely but
must resort to the medium of the
anonymous letter, is about the most
despicable specimen of the genus
coward that the good Lord ever per-
mitted outside of four barred walls.
As rule, people who resort to the
anonymous letter are those whose
own conduct is not above suspicion
and whose record for veracity would
give their story but little weight with
any officer o; the law or with any
court. If this be not the case in
Eagle county then the conditions are
different there from any locality in
which We have been privileged to
study human nature.
There are in almost every commun-
ity one or two-sometimes more
backbiting busybodies who, although
they cannot trace their own ancestry
to Caesars wife, take delight by
means of Aings or innuendoes, if not
by direct statements in traducing
those whose shoes they are not worthy
to loose, and then when caught try to
to lie out of it and shift the blame
to some one else They make preten-
sions Of friendship to your face and
stealthily stab you in the back.
And among all these false friends
(O; these character assassins, these
hypocritical and b ysterical reformers
many Of whom should practice little
scavenger work in their own front
yards before starting on reform mis-.
sion. perhaps the most detestable of
them all is the cowardly writer of
anonymous letters.
God hates a coward, and the state.
ment referred to indicates that Sheriff
Henry has like feeling toward him.

B0NI TO FIGHT DUEL;
COUNTESS MAY FORGIVE

PARIS. Feb. 1.-Two society women
OF almost equal prominence, are named
in the gossip about the CasteIlanes'
quarrel. as the charmer Of the count
and the cause OF the separation.
One story says:
1T is now notorious that the society
woman whose name was suppressed last
week is a baroness Of German origin,
distantly connected with Count Boni
She is the wife uf one Of the most
prominent hnaaciers of the world
There is even talk OF a duel between
Count Boni and the baroness's nus
band.
1T is hoped that further scandal can
be averted. however. particularly In
view of a fresh development that Count
Boni is found 10 have even maintained
close relations with another woman
who Is said 10 be an American married
to a French baron. The name OF this
woman is kept careful secret, how
ever"
Another story picks a beautiful
duchess. celebrated for her interest in
aeronautics, and 4. daughter of one Of
the highest titled families OF the old
regime.
The connection Of the baroness with
the counts troubles is more commonly
accepted. That Castellane will have TO
nght the baron is considered certain.
Both men are well known in the Sale
d'Armes. and the outcome OF the en-
counter is q matter of debate wherever
the rasping OF fOils and the clash Of
blades IS heard.
