and looked through. Then the crowd
swept by.
obviously Warren might now de
-eend by the way he had come in. Yet,
once safely in. he shrank from being
detected In the act OF coming forth.
Furthermore. there was no guarantee
that the hafiied mob would not swing
back and pick him up on Its return.
Deciding thar to remain In the fry
inc pan was preferable TO jumping
into the fire. he turned to hunt up the
occupants of the house and tender his
explanations.
The room In which he found himself
was evidently a lady's bedroom, meta
morpho>ed for the time being into the
likeness of an anteroom OF a modiste.
Over Tho cretOnned. cushioned chairs,
across the bed. and even suspended
from the mirrors above the dressing
table were feminine garments OF every
description
But Warren did not stop to admire
the elaborate display. Finding the
-tnirwav. he descended and parted the
heavy draperies which apparently cur
tained the living room. Three women
uttered screams The fourth. superb
ly decked In bridal gown. paused in
the act Of slowly circling before huge
pier glass and looked at him In aston
ishment. Even as he told his story.
Warren decided that she was the love
lest girl he had ever seen.
Two OF the women Were evidently
seamstresses. the third her aunt. Mu-
tual acquaintance was presently estab-
ushed and Warren's explanations ac-
ceptsd without question. Also. II was
suggested that he summon taxicab
and avoid any possible meeting with
the incsnssd men.

Another point Is that the other half

We have large proportion of state

A COUNTY CLERK WHOSE
RECORD HAS BEEN SPLENDID

Does anyone ever take moment
TO stop and think what real public SER
wants county officials are, and what a
walking encyclopedia they have to be ?
The ordinary duties Of the county clerk
are but part of the service he rend-
ers 10 the public. Mr.. McWiIliams,
our present clerk, is daily assailed
with questions that in a strict sense
OF the word, have nothing TO do with
the Office of County Clerk and Record
cr. 4 taxpayer over at Marble wants
some Information relative to the Colo
RADIO ule Marble Co. Another one at
Pitkin wants 10 know about some min
ing property, and some ranchman
writes in about some grazing land on
such and such a creek. And looking
up records for the public is not a part
Of the duties of the Clerk and Record
er, unless IL is in making an abstract,
for which you are charged accordingly.
The records are on file in the office and
are open to the public, but when the
clerk spends two or three hours look
ing up your property, il is an accom-
mdation and not one of his duties. A
great many of the inquiries put to the
County Clerk are not matters of re-
cord, however. Mr.. McWilliams has
worked in nearly every part of the
county during the past 40 years; at
one time he was mining in the eastern
part of the county around Whitepine.
then We find him in the mercantile
business at Crested Butte. or serving
as postmaster at Marble. Here at
Gunnlson he spent part of his earlier
years. During this time he has ac-
cumulated store of knowledge, which,
while il may not be Of sufficient i'm
portance at the time of it taking place
to require recording, as time passes,
it becomes of great value to the COM
munity, and Mr.. McWilliams has al
ways been willing and ready to give
the public any information he may
have. Mr.. Voter. if you will stop for
a moment to recollect how many times
you have gone to the office Of the
County Clerk for information, | am
sure you will see that Mr.. C. c. Nc
Williams is our next County Clerk.

Catfish Made TO Change Names.

Some catfish have been nosing
around in the mud of the rivers to the
north of Rio Janeiro for 81 years
without knowing their right name.
They supposed their name was "Stein-
dachneria." under which they had beep
baptized by Carl ii. Eigenmann and
Rosa Smith Eigenmann in 1888. But
G. Brown Goode has given this name
to some other fish belonging 10 the
aristocratic gadoid family of Macru-
rids. Confusion and correspondence
ensued until Prof. David Starr Jordan
insisted that the catfish change their
names. Therefore their sponsors have
rebaptized them Standardization"
and the catfish can now nose around in
the mud of the Rio Jequintinhonha,
the Rio Doce and the Rio Parahyba
without fearing that the piscatorial
mail intended for them may get car
ried out to sea and delivered TO the
Macrurids
The Clio messenger. (Clio, Mich.) 1907-current, 1920-07-08

Our readers will have noticed that
while The Messenger openly processes
afiiliation with the Republican party,
IL has always refrained from any per-
sonal abuse or undignified criticism
Of the distinguished men whom the
Democratic party has elevated TO pos
itions representative of the honor and
dignity Of our common country.
This attitude has not been solely
matter of policy; it has rather been
matter of conscience. We do not adj
mire abuse of persons who represent
in large way the American nation,
and as a general proposition they
have not, in our opinion, been de-
serving of abuse. Almost without
exception and regardless of party
they have been men, especially in the
presidential Office, far above the aver
age in intelligence and natural ability
and with pure and lofty aspirations
for their country. Mistaken they
may have been, in certain matters,
and not above becoming criticism,
but certainly undeserving of any
thing more destructive of national
pride than justly derogatory of per-
sonal character. At the beginning of
a campaign that is sure to wax warm
before it is over, we want to reaffirm
adherence to the policy we have en-
deavored to maintain in the past. We
shall endeavor to discuss issues with
the utmost freedom, but will steer as
clear as possible of personalities that
could give offense. Further, we are
willing to publish in our columns
criticism of our arguments, providing
the same are in proper language and
concise enough to render publication
possible. OF course, it must be re-
cognized that we cannot admit politi-
cal contenders from all over the State
of Michigan and that articles of po-
litical nature must be of reasonable
length.
