Jim Crate is a saki rind a wiser man
ia morning. He has labored not under
be delusion that the world owes him a
living, but that a email share of it, that
class of aociety known as the demi
monde, are financially responsible for
hia needs, be theyparge or email. While j
in a house of ill tame adjoining Maetz &
Pundt'a saloon last night he made his
usual demands for money of the inmates.
Tney refused, but he persisted, even re
sorting to threats of personal violence.
They retaliated and threatened to call
the police. He then defied the. whole
police force of the city. ' Shortly after
ward Officer Connelly and Marshal
Blakeney arrived, having been sum
moned. Crate fled to the room next
door, where he waa followed by the offi
cers. Being approached by Blakeney,
Crate shot out his left, but some way it
missed connection, and a stinging blow
in the face felled him to the floor. Both
officers picked him up and he went very
meekly to the city jail. Blood waa
streaming from his face, and a physician
called, who found that Crate had sus
tained a fracture of the nose. He was
patched up, and this morning appeared
before the city recorder. - He plead
guilty and was fined $50. There ia an
other fine of $50 hanging over him for a
misdeed some months ago, which he for
feited ..y coming back to the citv; He
will now have to pay the $50, or serve it
out in jail, before he ia given another
opportunity to leave town.

The opening gun of the campaign in
Sherman county was the big Republi

last. There were over 500 people prea
ent, many coming from a distance of
twenty miles. The speaker of the even

the floor for over two hours, amid much
enthusiasm. He handled . the political
situation in hia accustomed forcible
manner, and administered potent medi
cine from his generous laboratory of facta
and figures. - The inclement weather
(there waa snow on the ground) did not
detract from the size of the assemblage.
Three brass bands and two quartettes

evening.
