LAST NIGHTS MAIN EVENT.

AS man foremost in the ranks Of
the brave, Rod Day acquired new hon.
ors last night when he met T. X.
Irwin in front of the postoffice and
the latter demanded reason for those
highly uncomplimentary articles re-
garding himself which have appeared
in the Democrat for a number of
months past Instead of answering
his question Mr.. Day responded with,
what are you going to do about it?"
Accumulated wrath on the part Of Mr..
Irwin directed his reply--a well aimed
blow which sent Day to the street
with terrible crash. The defendant
in the fstic encounter was allowed
to rise to his feet when he was treated
to series of blows as well aimed and
effective as the first. In the spirit Of
true bravery Mr.. Day attempted to
defend himself by singing heavy
piece of metal at Mr.. Irwin's head
and he barely missed his mark.
Not until it was evident that Day
was thoroughly whipped did the by
ISLANDERS take hand in the trouble.
Day rose to his feet badly bruised
and bleeding profusely. He soon made
his way down the street along the line
of least resistance.
While the encounter was in progress
Mr. Irwin slipped and fell on the
walk and in his efforts to save him
self threw out his hand in such way
couple of fingers were thrown out
of joint. Otherwise he escaped with
out injury.
. At an early hour this morning Mr.
Irwin appeared before justice OF
the peace and paid his fine and costs
but in so doing did not deplete the con-
tents of his own pocketbook as bust
ness men of the city who witnessed
the affair Immediately raised more
than was necessary to pay his fine
doctor bill and attorneys fees. The
spirit of fair play occasioned theii
doing so.
The attitude of the Democrat ir
Mr.. Irwin's case Is too well known
to our readers to make review ol
their position necessary on our part
Mr.. Irwin's attorneys advised him t
bring contempt proceedings against
the editors, but his temper became
too heated to wait for the necessar,
legal steps to be taken.
We live in free country where
man is supposed to be innocent unit
proven guilty by the courts, but th'
Democrat apparently desired to usurI
the powers Of the courts.
