Murder. Not Suicide.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., May 10.-That
William Garrison, whose body was
found near the river here few DAYS
ago with bullet hole through his
head and Il revolver living near by, was
murdered, is indicated by further in
vcstigation of the case. 1t was be
lieved at FIRST that he had committed
suicide. Garrison was witness before
the grand jury which investigated the
recent raid on the sheep camp of Ale
mand and Emge near Basin, in which
both Allemaud and Emgc and one of
their herders were murdered. His evi-
dencc was influential in bringing about
the arrest Of a number Of prominent

case was peculiar Deavitt, who is now
a stenographer in Spokane, but for.

money to invest for him. Cockrel
bought rising stock, but instead OF
turning over the paper, employed ii as
collateral In speculation of his own

was involved the case assumed a Grim

it that under such circumstances the
states relator. if he wishes the de
fendant imprisoned upon conviction

been doing. AT the rate of 30 cents per
day Judge McClernan today dismissed
Cockrcll upon the later s oath that he

isfy the Judgment. Cockrell was
prominent broker. and before coming
here operated in San Francisco.

SLAPPED IN THE FACE.

A goodiy number OF citizens OF
Thurmont and elsewhere along the
w., F. q G. Railroad petitioncd the
Business Mems Association OF Fred
crick to interest themselves in seeing
that the railroad was not kept out OF
town.
Through the officers of that assocla-
ton, particularly through Mr.. James
ii. Cambria Jr., our people got a
"slap in the face" on Monday night
last when the association refused to
present the petition and adjourned
three minutes after they met without
action. Mr.. James II. Gambrill Jr.
is member of the Board of Alder
men and has been a consistent as well
AZ persistent enemy of the railroad.
Shall the people of Frederick be
held up by this one individual or not,
that is the question. 1t is hoped and
believed that the Board of Aldermen
has enough members who will see to
it that the W., +. a. &. railroad is
not crushed out of existence.

COMMUNICATED.

To the Editor of The CLARION.
Dear Sir:-Your article in issue OF
March 25th on the approaching election
of Town Council has been commented
on quite generally about town. In many
eases this movement meets with APPROX
al, but as is always the case there is some
adverse criticism. The latter is general
" on this line. "Oh, yes they will play
Hob! goin' load the town up with debt
&c. etc.
Now | see no reasons why we should
not have these much needed improve
mcnts, and at the same time keep well
within the limits of our income. This is
not an attempt to force a new clique into
office, but it is an attempt to get good
well-palanced Board who will have the
interests of our town at heart. Board
that will not be visionary or extravaganza
and yet be one that is not on the other
hand penny wise and pound foolish
trying in many cases to save cents at the
cost of many dollars.
A 5ood Town Council can arrange to so
combine the work that one good man
could act as policeman and also attend to
the lights, collection of taxes and other
minor duties in this way insuring the
town good continuous service at perhaps
less expense. The force of this will read
lily be seen by looking over our annual
report. In this | think you will find
many small items of expense which I'M
der a business like administration would
be cut down. recall in this connection
the item of cleaning crossings. Now
this it seems to me is entirely unnecess-
ary, property holders at crossings would
certainly see that these We're kept open
at all times. In large cities it Is OF
course a wise plan to have the city au-
thorites see to the removal of ice and
snow from the streets, but in small
town there is no necessity for this.
AS to the question of Lights | think 1t
will be shown conclusively that an elec-
trio plant can be installed at very rea-
sonable cost, and that the same will pay
for its maintenance from the start with
a very good prospect of its becoming a
source of revenue to the town at an early
date. Install an electric plant and watch
small manufactures come in. They Will
not come until you do this
Let us as citizens keep for ourselves
this valuable right. 1t must be valuable
because the offers we have had have all
been liberal in their buying out privi-
leges. 1t stands to reason they are not
doing this for love, they must and should
make something out of it. But If you
are wide awake and up to date we will
take hold and put it through ourselves
and thus reap for our town the full ben
eft. This Mr.. Editor is my view of the
matter. | am not advocating any side or
clique in this question, but am for i'm
provements that will keep pace with our
velopment carried out in a safe, sane
and business-lke manner. Yours for
progress and light.
