Police Expect to
Solve Blackmailing
Mystery in Few Days
Say They Think They Can Lay Their
Hands on the Writers of
Threatening Letters.

New developments in the SmythH och-
stetler Matchmaking case indicate that the
matter will be cleared up without delay.
Both families received threatening letters
within the last day or two and It is said
that sufficient evidence has been obtained
to warrant the arrest of the writer's. The
police refuse to give out anything on the
matter, but 1t is understood the author
OF the letters is in the city and can be
located at a moments notice
The solution of the matter will relieve
the stress of mind under which the Smyth
and Hochstetler families have been labor

mailing letters. The letters demanded
$500 from each family under penalty of
bodily harm to q son of the smyth family
and a daughter of the Hochstetlers.

LOAN SHARKS WITH NEW PLAN
Instead of Having Warrants Assigned
They Secure Orders for Them.
TWO ARE PRESENTED MONDAY
city Treasurer and Comptroller Say
they Think they Can Circum-
vent THIS Move by Adopt
ing New plan.

Money lenders. who have been scalping
city warrants adopted new tactics Monday
morning Instead Of filing assignments Of
warrants Of city employees. they resorted
to the presentation OF orders. which directs
the city comptroller to deliver unsigned
warrants to the holder of the order.
Two such instruments were presented TO
Comptroller Cosgrove and the warrants
turned over to the money lenders. Here
tofore the comptroller has been delivering
the warrants under assignment orders,
which permitted the money lenders to take
the warrant to the city treasurer and get
II cashed.
City Treasurer Furay states that the
money lenders will have their troubles In
getting these warrants cashed. however.
II will not honor any warrant unless l
know that the signature is genuine. IL a
warrant is presented for payment at this
office, | will have to be satisfied that IL
has been endorsed by the person to whom
IL was issued. A notary's seal or a witness
, to the signature will be all right, or else
the warrant can be signed in my presence
Il have directed that warrants presented
for payment by others than the ones to
whom they are issued be referred to me-"
City Comptroller Cosgrove has formu-
lated a scheme to prevent the necessity of
issuing orders. He says he will request
the council to pass the payroll ordinance
on Monday afternoons. in this way It
will be possible to pay day laborers on the
job instead of requiring them to come to
the office and get their warrants
Often orders are given for convenience
sake, says Cosgrove Employees do not
like to take the time to come to the office.
To prevent such steps, he proposes to pay

In Trouble Again

The past week has been a stren-
uous one with US and pretty nearly
all our attention since Thursday has
been taken up trying to get our ma
chinery in running order again.
Last Thursday, when we lacked
some 500 papers of getting out our
edition, an accident occurred in the
press-room which smashed our big
cylinder press. There were several
parts broken and we could print no
more papers until the damage was
repaired; 80 Friday morning, with
the broken parts. We hurried to a
machine shop in Charleston.
1t was Saturday afternoon past
train time before the work was fin
ished, which kept us away until
Sunday morning. Until we can
get new piece cast in place of one
of the broken parts, we are liable
to be caused more trouble; so we
ask our friends to bear patiently
with us for little while, until
things get to running smoothly
again
We also apologize for any delay
or inattention at the Office during
our absence and bespaak the in
dulgcnce of our readers for any
short rt-comings in this weeks paper,
which had to be gotten up in about
one-half the usual time given to the

Always the Orator.

The following is told of a federal
official, formerly a senator Of the
United States from Kentucky. In
the days of his youth the Kentuck-
ian was asked by a friend to second
him in duel. He consented, and
at sunrise the parties met at the ap-
pointed place. Now, it was this Ken
tuckian's duty to say the last word
touching the terms of the duel.
But, although he faithfully per-
formed this duty, the duel never
took place.
A murmur of "Why not?" inva-
riably goes round whenever this
story is told, whereupon the answer
is as follows:
"For a very simple reason. When
Joe finished speaking it was too
dark for duel" ."-Harper's.

Without prejudice to our posi-
ton of opposition to the free
exercise of the pardoning power
by the Chief Executive, we feel
that Governor Blease has not made
a mistake in setting free Lonnie
C.. Myers, convicted more than
eight years ago from this county.
Myers, we are informed, was a
model prisoner and has shown
every evidence of sincere repent
ance of his crime. This and
many other facts set forth in
the petition, would have appealed
to any man of humane feeling,
however stern his sense of duty.
AS a matter OF simple justice,
we will say in connection with
this case that Leroy Lee, Esq,
Myers attorney, had been work
ing for several years in his client :
behalf, and it was through his
efforts that the pardon was final
ly granted.
