Connty Kcmoeriiey Tries A'rw
iMcnim tu Secure Clear Field.
As a result of tho fierce war between
factions of tho democratic party, a chargo
of bribery has been preferred ngalnst John
i, O'Connor, recently appointed by Governor
Poynter to a placo on the propowed new
beard of flro and police commissioners,
Tho complaint wns sworn to Into Saturday
afternoon In police court before Judge Gor
don. Tho warrant for the arrest of O'Con
nor was placed In the hands of Dan Davis,
officer of tho court.
Whllo tho name of John Shelby nppeara
as tho complainant, It Is snld that Cunning
ham R, Scott, lato Jmlgo of the district
court, drow up the papers, Tho bribery
chargo ngalnat O'Connor grows out of the
troublo he had with Judge Scott three years
ago relative to litigation. In which O'Con
nor represented John A. Crelghton,
Contrary to tho usual custom, Deputy
County Attorney Dunn, when Interrogated,
eald ho know nothing about it nnd would
not prosecute it except by express orders
of County Attorney Shields.
John Shelby la tho husband of Mary
Shelby, -who wns the plaintiff In n will cbho

on December 23, 1807, O'Connor offered

tha case.

Nature's Provisions Against Chilling

In tho back oortlon of tho nasal cnvltv
nre two largo mnsscs of blood vessels which
pour out uoon the surface of thu mucous
membrane u watery substance that
moistens tho air which wo breathe In
through tho nostrils, and also warms It.
This Is nature's wuy of preparing tho
B.tmoahere so that when It reaches the
lungs it Is purltled, warmed and moistened,
o ub not to disturb the equilibrium of the
lung temperature. These blood vesel aro
very delicate and sensltlvo and one cannot
be too enreful against forcing liquids Into
the nose that may aggravate anil disturb
their action. Catarrh appear to tho suf
ferer us only a noso trouble, but It usually
extends along the membranes Intlamlng
the lurynx, the wlndplpo and tho bronchial
tubes, so that In nearly nil cares of
catarrh and colds treatment through tho
nostrils Is useless and harmful, The only
way by which all the affected parts In a
genuine case of catarrh may bo reached Is
by Internal treatment. In this way tho
entire mucous lining Is restored to oroucr
pecretlvo condition and the nerves, hlood
and temperature serve to carry off the dis
eased mucous to tho proper excremontorv
channels. Since Gauss' Cntnirh Tablet)
cams Into us catarrh has been better
understood by the masses and thefe tablets
aro a ture euro; In fact, catarrh cannot be
cured In any other way. A trial of these
celebrated tablets will soon clear tho head,

stimulating effect upon the bowels, bladder,
kidneys and stomach, which are nearly

outward evidence of tho intense, but sup
pressed, excitement In democratic circles
caused by tho contest for places on tho pre
tender pollco board appointed a few days
ngo by Governor Poynter. Both tho Jack
sonlans and tho County Democracy insisted
upon exclusive recognition at the hnnds of
tho governor, but tho board when announced
ns comprising Ilroatch, Peabody, Miller and
Poppleton, wns Immediately seen to be tho
creation of Molsc, Metcalfe and Fanning,
the sponHors of the County Democracy, nnd
cast consternation through tho Jncksonlnna
for fear that somo of tho prospective powor
might escape them.
When Mr. Poppleton mado public his dec
lination ho snld ho withdrew In favor of
Attorney F. L. Weaver, who was also
promptly endorsed by Molse, Metcalfe et al.
and confidently awaited his commission by
next mall.
Tho furoro among tho Jocksonlans and
especially the Irish elemont knew no bounds.
Attorney General Smyth wns mado tho point
of nttnek nnd so strong wns tho pressure
brought upon him by Irish democrats that
ho Is nald to havo made a peremptory de
mand upon Governor Poynter for the ap
pointment of J. J. O'Connor, tho attorney
for John A. Crelghton, to tho vacancy left
by Poppleton's resignation.
(iovortiur Foreetl in Yield,
Whon the governor remonstrated nnd
gavo ovldenco of preferring to enrry out
tho wishes of the Molso crowd. Mr. Smyth
Is snld to havo given tho ultimatum that
unless O'Connor wns appointed ho would
dismiss tho whole ult and leavo tho gov
' ernor's board high and dry.
I As a result J. J. O'Connor was given the
! vacant comnilsslonershlp on the governor's
I pretender board to tho intenso disgust of the
1 Molso end. who realized that his presence
there would bo nn obstruction to question
I able schemes they might bo promoting. As
a consequenco thoy havo been busy trying
I to dovlso somo plan by which to rid them
l solves of O'Connor's objectionable presence
! in that capacity, nnd tho present movo la
said to be a part of their deep-laid plot.
In this connection It Is nlso Interesting
to nolo thnt In tho democratic convention a
year ago O'Connor was a mont prominent
lendor In standing out against the nom
ination of Judgo Scott on tho democratic
Judicial ticket, whllo Molso, Fanning & Co.
championed Judgo Scott's cause in the
democratic convention nnd later managed
his campaign ns a petition candidate.
Further developments nro expected In tho
bribery caso Monday.
