A Candid Obituary, An exchange has thus frankly ex pressed its opinion about a woman who had died : While it is almost a crime to speak ill of the dead, we feel it our duty to tell the truth about Miss Mary Bayer, who died last night. She was a human hornet. She never spoke a decent word about any one, living or dead, and slander sprung from her mouth like the toads from the girl in the fairy tale. If she goes to heaven we don't want to be there, and we believe we voice the senti ment of every man, woman and young lady in this burg. We gladly contri bute a quarter for ice for Mary. She will need it. Candidates can secure their cards at this office on short notice and at reasonable rates. 4-tf. Subscribe for the Columbian. OOtTBT HOUSE NEWS.
