Good For Morris sey.
A. M. Morrissey , who was elected
county attorne } * , and a comparative
stranger , will undoubtedly give satis
faction. There has been a number
of cases reported to him by meddle
some people , and through revenge
for some fancied wrong. He has
wisely refused to prosecute under
such circumstances , not desiring to
bring costs upon the county where it
was impossible to procure a convic- .
tion. We have heard him unjustly , !
criticised by some chronic fault finders - 1
ers , and those that were antagonistic
toward , not him. in particular , but
his party. Such narrow mindedness '
is always allowed to go unnoticed , and
\ve predict that he will attend to the '
cluties devolving upon him by the '
position he occupies , and will not ask j
them for advice. The Pullman Correspondent - '
respondent in the Whitman Sun.
Trouble at Johnstown.
Ed Rector , constable of Johnstown

vilgores of Johnstown had a little ,
lifference and proceeded to adjust it j
i la Corbit-Fitzsimmons style , with
he result that the Kilgores had the
Valentine bo3's arrested chaiged j
vith assault with intent to do great
odily harm. The other Valentine

Wants Electric Light Franchise.
i We are informed that at the next
meeting of the city council a fran-
chise for an electric light company
will be asked. We are glad to note
this movement , but would caution
the council to be wary in granting
the favor asked. Especial pains
should be taken to protect the village
streets and alleys from being con
trolled by any one company to the
exclusion of any other , and no fran
chise should be granted unless it ex
pressly provides that the franchise
shall become null and void if the
privileges granted are not used with
in a year at least. People may smile
at such precautions being taken , but
a franchise of this character may be
come a very valuable thing in the
course of 2-1 or 50 years.
