A great deal is said every elec

I hai something should bo said about
them. If a ring should be organiz
ed by political office seekers lor the
purpose of manipulating conventions
and piimaries in ordr to put them
selves into office, the people ought
to slaughter them at oLce. This is
doro sortetimes. I he conventions
are captured ly having henchmen in

THE ARTESIA2T WELL
Th board of AIdrmn could not
do a better att ior the town than t
submit a proposition to vote a tax
for the purpose of paying for an
artesian well. It is our opinion that
when tbe citizens of Bolivar se
the importance and need of this vll
jthey will cheerfully yete a tax.
Every town f Bolivai's size neds
a larye water supply. In casa of fire
a hose could be attached, and tbe
hvdrsuhc force would send the wa
ter leaning to the tops et our hi-h-j
est buildings. iStajl hoae could be
attached for the purpaso of sprink
ling the t-lreets, washing o:1 build
ings and vehicle. The water could
convened to almost any portion of
town fioni court square, Thus
euabli:)r he paoplo to water freely
their flowers itnd gardens, and fur
nish a pure supply ior their stock.
Again, our triends from the country
would have the pure cooling stream
to quench their thirtt and that of
their stock alter long and hot ride
or drives. Again as aa attraction
and addition to the town. These few
and many other reasons ought to
move individuals, the town, and
the county court to come to the
help of this enterprise.
Tiioee Who Toil.
Thera are few people in
this
world who do not toil in one way or
another for their daily bread: Even
the millionaires aro burdened with a
toil that is no easier to mind or body
than the man wh daily labors with
brawny hands. But only content
ment, in a degree at least, can
sweten toil. And it is hard for con
tentment te exist where, in spite of
toil, the wolf is ever hovering near
the door. There are thousands of
of such cases in the world, and the
pity of it is they increase with the
year. When health is good and
work is plentiful the honest toiler
finds a degree of content in being
able by his laber ta feed ana clothe
his ffife and little ones, or those
nr horn he holds the " dearest. But
when sickneas comes or work is
dull his life 'i burdened with a fear
of the ghastly visitor and he Iooks
with bitterness on these who with
less of honest merit luxuriate in ease
and wealth, lie feels that things
are unevenly balanced, and it really
does seeia that way. as the pessimist
contends, though the optimist denies
it. there is something in the hon
est daily toiler that commands the
respect and ad miration oi every man
whose respect is worth anything.
When we sea a cheap little dude
with natty dress sneering at the
daily laborer in rouj;h garb we feel
as if we should like to hit him be.

The Circular Forgery.
The Bulletin published Mr. Cisco's
reply to tha charga of forgery, made
against him by Mr. Littleton. Now
as a matter of newspaper courtesy
we publish the substantial part of
Mr. Littleton's reply to thai letter.
Another reason we print these racy let
ters is because considerable feeling
has been aroused in this county on
account of the circulars having been
sent throughout tbii county on the
eve of the prohibition election. The
following i Littleton:
''But he Cisco made a virtual con
fession ot his guilt a3 charged, and
in that we are interested io the ex
tent of exonerating the Republican
committee from blame for the base
criminality of that most coward
heaned prostitute, blackmailer,
felon and scouudrel, J. G. Cisco,
editoi of the Jackson Blade. Here
is the confession of the impudent
rascal:
"I came in possession of these
papeis a few days before the election
and put them where I thought they
would do the most good, as I had a
ri-nt to do. I did send them to
oiteroiit persons, and 1 will now
nk t!.e blustering blaefcguard what
lie is guin to do about it."
Indeed lie did come 4 m posses
sion'' ol the circulars and he did so
by conceiving the forgery ot them
in his own rascally brain and per
petrating it with his own thieving
hands. It is a well established
principle i. law that a man who
negotiates a forjed paper is held
guilty of forgery until he proves
here he obtained it and establishes
hi innocence of complicity in the
crime. The1 "uttering" or passing
uf a forged paper, with knowledge
of its having been iorged. makes
the man who utters or forges it
equally guilty in law with the crimi
nal who commits the fogery. J, G.
Cisco ha confessed possession and
utterance of a forgery, and he does
not dieloa.e where he got it or by
whom it wa forged. Certain it is
ihat he uttered tbe lorgery with a
guilty knowledge oi it. On that
point he is convicted by his awn
confession. That he committed tha
iergery with his own thieing hands
there is scarcely room lor doubt.
We therefore denounce J. G- Cisco,
editor oi" the Jackson Blade, as a
mean and contemptible forger and
a mendacious coward who attempt
to conceal the body of his crime by
becoming a violent and ma uiiaut
liSI'.
But ha asks with chatactenstic
impudence "what are you going to
do about u?" Why, we can do
nothing oi course, except to expose
