An Inquiry.

In last weeks New1-Banner l no.
tice a long editorial, in which the
writer deplores the discussions and
animosities that have developed in
Union City because of one man, etc.
Then in the name of all that's decent
why don't the one man, who has
been the cause of badly split up
town, step down and out like true
sport and let some man who is &C
ceptable to all take his place? 1t
is quite true that the job is fat
one, and but little to do, but having
had this job for over twelve years,
and that, too, in the face of most
bitter opposition, l join with the
News-Banner and ask why should
one man stand in the way of a united
peaceful town?
Don't everybody answer at once.
