We understand that the rotund bag pr
wind who is playing postmaster at dii
s place is circulating the report that fo :
r present movement is based upon the lie i
: t of his having approached us for to
stage. In view of the fact thafc we pr
square up to the present quarter , and be

indering ignoramus owes bills all over

Now that the flabby specimen of adi
posity , whom for convenience we will
style postmaster , has thrown down the
gauntlet of war , has attacked us thro'
the press , by language too beastly to be
written , and has in addition threatened
to show his affection for us through the
persuading medium of a black-snake , we
will at least give the matter personal at
tention sufficient to make it interesting
at all events. And before we have done
with him , the cowardly , low-bred and
foul-mouthed blackguard , who digraces
this city and the name and office of post
master , will know assuredly that the
"pen is mightier" than brute force and
billingsgate. That it is not all of the
postmaster's life to buy a suit of store
clothes on tickfill , one's capacious maw
with wind and strut around amongst we
common folks with the pomposity .and
hautieur of a little god , eating of heav
en-sent manna and daintily sipping the
nectar of the gods ; but that the service
demands , and it is the aim and intent of
the government to appoint efficient , gen
tlemanly , courteous servants of the peo
ple and not stupendous ignoramuses.
And these things will duly come before
governmental authority.

A sad accident occurred at Corona ,
Colo. , Saturday noon , whereby Joe Mar
tin , a popular B. & M. freight brakeman ,
was fatally injured , having his leg sev
ered at the hip , from which he died ,
Saturday night , after having been remov
ed to Denver. It appears that the young
man was in the act of climbing down
from a box car to set the brake on a flat
car , just as the train was passing the
schute at the Corona stock yards , and
that the door of the schute , which was
open , struck him , knocking him from
the car and under the merciless wheels ,
with the above result. His remains
were brought down to this station on No.
2 , Monday morning , whence they were
removed to Oberlin , Kas.for , interment.
Verily , the exegencies of a brakeman's
life are uncertain , and his end frequent
ly tragic.

secured a situation for their yard at the

A young lady by the name of Gussie

he young lady was unseated by the f rac-

n the stirrup , and in this position she
ras dragged a half mile , and literally
: icked and bruised to death in a most
hocking manner. Her parents reside
n Kansas City , where her remains were
iromptly forwarded , passing through

most highly respected citizens. In the
prime of manhood , in the enjoyment of
family , friends , health , and despite the
utmost efforts of Drs. Kay and Davis ,
and the kindly and faithful ministrations
of friends , death stepped in with mortal
instruments and exacted the last sad
forfeit ; and on Monday afternoon the
mortal remains of the departed were

deep regret and sorrow ) of family and
a large circle of friends , who followed
his remains to their last resting place.
