the Rip-saw.)-"Y dirty Rip-sav
- -! The best thing yo,
can do is to get out of town.,
These are the words with which Chic,
Cloutier is alleged to have greeted {
3ocal chap by the name of Hendricks.
"I'm doing nothing wrong and I an
working. / see no reason why / should
get out of town, Hendricks is said e
have replied to the Big Chief.
Chief Cloutier, 50 it is alleged. ther
obscenely informed Hendricks that he
Cloutier, would make him, Hendricks
DO something vile to a certain part Of
his anatomy.
"Ill advertise the fact, now that yor
have informed me,', Hendricks is sup
posed to have replied.
I suppose, too, that you II write j,
to that Did little Rip-saw,n retorted
Chief Cloutier. 8 III be here when boti
you and the Rip-saw are gone. ;,
This surprising dialogue was carried
on between Chief Coulter and Hen.
dricks when they met some time ago
II is stated that the Big Chief has an
insane and erroneous idea that Hend.
ricks is a reporter for the Great Family
Journal The facts are that Hendricks
never saY the head-sawyer but once in
all his life and that he never .communi.
Gated WITH him, the Rip-saw OF any of
its staff, either personally or by Others.
just why Chief Cloutier should try to
connect Hendricks with the Rip-saw
cannot be clearly seen. IT is barely
possible that the Big Chief fears ex-
posRre in something that he may have
depe in or around Chisholm. That being
correct, then it is only natural that he
should try to blame Hendricks, the man
he fears and dislikes,, with coughing up
something to the paper that prints in
side, facts. -.
Once upon a time, SO it is charged.
Chief Cloutier came into Signor Salvi's
saloon and WIS given a drink. The Big
Chief, then went to Joe Coniey's place
where, it is alleged, two more drinks
were hoisted into his system. He then
took some men into his ear and drove
them home.
!. Some say that Hendricks either saw
those acts or knows those who did.
hence Chief Ooutier,s fear and dislike
of the chap. -.
on another occasion, so tile local
sports tell the tale, Hendricks was in
the blindpig of the little old woman
with a big family, to support and slen-
der resources 1.-The old lady who makes
q little Italian wine. to sell to those who
do dot like the terrible moonshine
whisky. With the Big Chief, came eight

asked Hendricks. !. <.
I 't3 Why pick on AN old .ladyf Why
not arrest. Salvis', queried Hendricks
of the Big Chief.
Are yon stooling on mes" Chief
Cloutier again asked rather anxiously.
Some not words followed back and
forth during which Hendricks charged
the Big Chief with playing favorites in
the enforcement Of the laws. n
: Yousrea liari - exclaimed Cloutier.

Chief Cloutier then took Hendricks
to the police station. What heewas go
ing to do to the man he disliked sosbad-
" was a<caution. !. After they got to
the station; The Cloutier bluff seemed
to play out, for he said to Hendricks:
"You may 90. but i want to see you
tomorrow. 81, ge :
