THREATEN TO OUST
JUSTICE PROM "OFFICE
Ssqulvo Daniel M. Lynch, of Simp-
y son, Asked for Damages by Over-
V seers Mtchnel McLaughlin and
K Michael Snee, to Be .Followed, It
Is Threatened, by Steps for His
5 Impeachment False Arrest and
" Commitment to Jail Alleged.
! Story of the Trouble.
" Across tlie.clty line In Fell' Uiwimhlp,
Jfvhcre there litis been ninny n .crossing
;of swords between ofllee-holders, there
Is (mother meeting of arms, which has
resulted In Justice or the Pence Daniel
1. Lynch being brought face to fare
$vlUr n civil action for cliiinnges, which,
,K not 'suceesaful,' Is threatened to be
.;fnllow,cd by., steps tp, oust, the 'sijiilro
JfninrtifflVerbn' the "'grountr that he Is
fgullty of misdemeanor In ofllce.
The steps against Justice Lynch are
Jbelng taken by Michael McLaughlin
fttnt (Michael Snee.' overseers of the poor
;oC Fell township. They claim they have
ibcen wrongly arrested and committed
;to Jail by the 'squire, because they
Called to, giant reller to two persons
tjvho Wore considered ds unworthy np
pllcijnts. and were refused aid by the
jjpvorfteersi. "
y The history of the cuee, according to
IJlniSnyorn allegations of the overseers,
.Is as' follows:
T A fOAV weeks ago" .Tdtln' Matsavltch, an
"applicant for relief, eame to the over
seers with an application endorsed by
"Squire Lynch and 'Squire Holmes, as
required by luy,. The claim of the ap
plicant was liHiuli'cd Into and was
Vdieiucd unworthy: the old asked was
accord I ugly refiiFcd. On June IS the two
'overseers, McLaughlin and Knee, were
arrested before Justice Lynch' on
.I'liMijses nf neglect and were held in
bail. They were arrested again the next
day on the same charge, on which they
had previously entered bail. This, the
FCt'ond lime, they entered ball before
Justice of the Pence Holmes. They
wre arrested a third time', on June 21.
and when brought before Justice Lynch
by Constable lleuley the 'squire refused
to take ball ,nn the warrants Issued on
Juno IS and 1!', and refused to the con
stable tci accept bail pieces for bull en
tered before Justice of the Peace
Holmes In both ruses.
Justice Lynch, the overseers say, per
sisted In his refusal lo tnke bull in any
of the three cases, which were identical
and In which bull had already been
offered. The matter ended, according
to the allegations of the overseers, In
the justice making out a commitment
of them to the county jail and delivered
the same to; Constable Heuley, who took
them Into custody, despite the ball that
had' been already offered, and which it
was ready to offer again.
There Is still another . allegation,
equally as strong. It recites that on
June 21, the day after the commitment,
Justice Lynch refused to permit the
overseers to see the information or the
warrants In the cases, unless they paid
him, the justice, ror the privilege. It is
also alleged that the justice refused the
overseers access to Ids docket, which
'must be public, unless they paid him
.for tbe service, '
Though both overseers were com
mitted to jail, neither went. Constable
Henley took both In charge, but for
some unknown reason lei them free,
soon afterwards.
Under the law, a justice of the peace
or alderman is allowed thirty days In
which to make lunends In a case of this
character, before he can bo proceeded
against. Accordingly, yesterday. Con
stable Xeary, at the Instance of City
Solicitor Stimit, who has been retained
by the overseers, served Justice Lynch
with a copy of the complaint, which Is
rubstiintlnlly set rorth above. If at the
. end or thirty days Justice Lynch has
not ledressed .McLaughlin and Hnee,
i heir counsel will bring a civil action
for damages. Jf this bo unsuccessful,

ordinary coffee docs not agree.

then steps will be taken, It Is said, and
'Vigorously followed, to mist tin; justice
from ortlce,
It Is claimed by the overseers' coun
sel that Justice Lyncli hint no right to
swear out a warrant ror their arrest on
charges of neglect of otllee. They are
not amenable or answerable to a jus
tice, even It negligent In nlllce, They
are responsible only to the court, and
action against them would have to be
taken In court. The action, therefore,
of the justice Is declared lo be without
absolutely any warrant under the law.
ThlM actloh of the Justice, bis alleged
refusal to accept ball, and his alleged
demand for money before he would al
low his docket and the warrants to be
seen, are regarded as grounds for his
Impeachment rrom otllee.
On the other hand, the charge, as In
this case, that the overseers were
guilty or neglect because they refused
aid to the applicant, John Matsavltch,
cannot be brought against the poor
ofllcers, It Is claimed, because under the
law, which" defines their duties, they,
and they atone, are the sole judges as
to the worthiness of an applicant. If
they decide that a request for relief Is
not worthy, their decision stands; this
Is their discretion and the very pur
pose of their creation. The order which
every applicant must have endorsed by
two Justices ot the peuce, Is nothing
more than a recommendation for relief
and has no other virtue.
THEIR NEW MANAGER.
Crescents Felicitating Over Melvln

Move.
The best move the Crescents made
since Former Manager P. P. Foxe was

ball sport In Qurbondole, which was
threatened, and demanded such an
heroic remedy as was given In this con
test. The new manager Is an enthusiastic
lover or sports, and enthusiasm that
counts in a smaller town, where the
support of the game has to depend
wholly upon the genet oslly of the pat
rons, and a few active figures such us
Mr. Tappan to hold this support when
once lent. This Mr. Tappan can be
counted upon to do. Ills wide acquain
tance and bis popularity, being recog
nized as one of the best known young
men of Hie town, will be Just the factor
that Is required in this case. His hust
ling qualities are well known, and there
are assurances, In abundance, that
there will be no lagging while he is
manager.
Mr. Tappan has assurances of firm
support on every side In his endeavors
to rIvp Curboudiile the clean sport
which the town knows how to appre

(From the Buutlnel, Gelio, Mont.)
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers lu 1880, the editor of tills paper
was among the many seekers after for
tuno who made the big race one Hue
dtiy In April. During his traveling
about and afterwards his camping upon
his clului, be encountered much bad
wuter, which, together with the' severo
heat, gave hlui a very sovere diar
rhoea which it seemed ulmo&t Impos
sible to check, and along In Juno the
case became so bad he expected to die.
One day one of his neighbors brought
him one small bottle of Chanibeiiulu's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Heinedy
an a last hope, A big doso was given
him while he wus rolling ubout on the
ground lu great agony, und In a few
minutes the dose was repeated, The
good effect of tho medicine was soon
noticed and within an hour the patient
wus tuklng his llrst sound sleep for a
fortnight. That one little bottle worked
a complete cure, nnd he cannot help
but feel grateful. The season for bowel
disorders being ut hand suggests this
