EDITORIAL Who Is w. j. Collier?


 We have been asked the above ques tion as to who the person was who is using the columns of the Expositor as a sewer into which to dump the garbage which he has gathered in the last few years He is the gentleman who a few years ago tried to get away with some town property from Gilbert Hathaway of Prescott and against whom a writ of restitution was issued by the court at the con clusion of an action in ejectment dur ing which this man Collier disobeying the order of the court ignomiously fled to New Mexico. The action of the district court having been sustained by the supreme court of the territory, this man Collier, who even at that time had come to dislike courts took an ap- peal to the supreme court of the United States which rendered deci- sion sustaining the supreme court of the territory and affirming the pre- vious Judgment.
 While the gentleman is in the busi- ness of annihilating the courts and justices it would perhaps be welt for him to dispose of the supreme court of the United States as well as the su preme court of the territory. If ma licious falsehood and coldblooded ly- ing will accomplish this object he is eminently qualified for it. He should patronize the EXpoSitor.
