perty of our citizens must be protected at all
hazards, and the thieves and outlaws put down

hand, and those who sympathize and shield the
thieves must be classed with them. There is no
half-way ground.
The fact that it has almost impossible to
convict a thief in this county for years past
makes the situation all the more aggravating,
and if our people are made of the same ma-
terial as those of other sections they will soon
rely soley upon themselves for protection, and

stand on the order of his going.
The little child of King Holstein, of the
NAN ranch, being left alone for a few moments
last Saturday, got possession of a bottle of
Fowler’s Solution and drank fully an ounce of
the deadly drug. The little sufferer was brought
to this city, and Doctor Stephens was called in
attendance. Everything was done that science
could suggest, but in vain, as the little innocent
died on Monday night. The parents have the
sympathy of the entire community.
John H. Mattocks, a recent arrival from
the east, father of James A. Mattocks, has open-
ed a blacksmith shop in the Broadway block.
