A GOOD MANN TROUBLE.
Postmaster j. n. Hunter Of River
view Arrested for Misuse
Of Postal Funds.

nd OI tnlS ulStTlCt LOOK fOStmaSter ].
n. Hunter to Jefferson City to answer
the charge of embezzlement preferred
by Postoffice Inspector A. d. Bunce-
ton.
The details of this case tend to
show that Mr.. Hunter was innocent
OF any criminal wrong, but had over
stepped the laws in connection with
government funds handled in the
postoffice.
Mr.. Hunter has been postmaster at
Rivcrview for the past thirty years
and is considered one of the best and
most honorable citizens in Southwest
Morgan.
Last year the total receipts of the
Office to MIR. Hunter, based on the
calculation of stamps, brought him
500. 40, or less than S5 month, and
yet he is alleged to be short $500 on
money orders. There is no evidence
that he was intentionally criminal or
was making any effort to hide the
true condition of affairs, as his books,
when examined, showed the balance
due Uncle Sam.
MIR. Hunter, when the post office
inspector asked for on explanation,
said he had the money tied up in
railroad ties and that, as he would
close up the sale of his farm within a
week, prior to removing to Oklahoma
he would square the matter. Told
that settlement must be made at once,
he asked the inspector to give him
time to come to Versailles.
U. S. Marshal MGKenna brought
Mr.. Hunter to this city, and on in
vestigation found the postmaster's
bond gilt-edged, ALI. Heineman and
A. l.. Ross being the surety, while
the efficiency was made good, but
that did not satisfy the government,
and Mr.. Hunter was compelled to
appear before Commissioner Geisberg
in Jefferson City to answer the
charges against him.
Inspector Bunceton. who was fully
convinced of Mr.. Hunters honesty,
made report with all the details
surrounding the case to the commits
sioner and friends here and at River
view verified his honesty.
A preliminary trial was held as
soon as the U. S. Marshal and his
prisoner reached Jefferson City. The
commissioner at once made out
bond which he handed to Mr.. Hun
ter with instructions to come back to
Versailles and have signed by repu-
table bondsmen. Mr.. Hunter ar
rived here Monday and Messrs.
Hcineman and Ross signed his bond
for his appearance at trial when need
ed, the u. S. officials having full
confidence in his integrity.
Owing to MIR. Hunters being un-
der arrest All. Heineman, as one of
his bondsmen, was appointed post
master at Riverview temporarily.
While the use of postoffice funds for
any purpose, except to turn over to
the postal department. is strictly for
bidden, the many friends of Post
master Hunter sincerely hope that
the matter may be adjusted with as
little trouble to himself as possible.
as they feel that his intentions were
far from dishonest, even though he is
compelled to answer to Uncle Sam
for having tied up government funds.

The old county committee of the Re

ing the time that they have been in
power in the matter OF appointments.

mittee nightmare of a week ago for

it thinks that it has. Who changed
the dope on those fellows, anyway?

HITS THE sPoILsMEN.

Supervisor Ned Adams, it is said
would step aside to make room for
Robinson, and would in his turn re-
ceive the nomination for County Au-
ditor. And he would be a good man in
that place, too. !
Now, if this plan works out. of
course it will hit the little Lane chaps
still another jolt because, while Broth
er Abraham Fernandez might beat Ned
Adams he certainly could not beat
Mark Robinson.
Also, there is another contingency
Supervisor Moore is said to want to
Shift from Supervisor in the Fifth Dis
trict to Supervisor-at-Large, running
on the Democratic ticket, and that
would leave only the Home Rule NOM
ination for Brother Abraham. To
elect him with that nomination alone
would require as much brains as
Brother Nagaran has-and then some.
Indeed, the Brains of the Lane crowd
would seem to be in some need of the
rest cure, if these compiled tions con-
tinue to arise all the time.
Naturally, if Mr.. Robinson is put on
the ticket. he will have some say as
to who else goes on-and he might ac-
cept Brother Nagaran as running
mate-and he might not. Also, he
might accept Brother Jim Quinn, and |
he might not. AS to Brother JIM by |
the way, some doubt was expressed |
yesterday as to whether Kakaako |

gressor is attended with many a col |

THE BROWN DEMOCRATS.

BY the way, speaking of Supervisors
and things, an evening Twinkler says
it has been shouted from the house
tops, and not whispered, that Col. Tau
kea has the Supervisoral bee. A friend
of the Colonel denied the soft i'm
parchment yesterday altogether. but
let that pass. If it has been shouted
from the housetops, it must have been
shouted pretty high e.se the Twinkler
would have brought the thing squaw-
king down to earth. Or does it catch
no political shout that is not shouted
from the Police Station?
An interesting meeting that was the
Democratic sages held in Mr.. Kinneys
law office the other evening, as the
stories of it begin to leak out. Mr..
Kinney, it is said by the men who talk
in dark alleys to the whispering palms.
proclaimed himself openly for Brown
once more an old Brown Democrat as
he was in the last campaign. The
Kinney idea of political wisdom is to
disrupt the other fellows party if you
never catch a clam-and it is of the
true Bourbon wisdom. General u. S
Grant it was who said that the Demo-
Gratis might always be relied upon TO
do the wrong thing. Far be it from
Mr.. Kinney to violate any tradition of
his party so sacred as that. Let the
other fellows get the clams-and tell
