PROSPECT HILL. “Gratitude is the memory of the heart” and it would be un kind in us not to acknowledge the good wishes of those friends of ours, at Arapahoe and Chey enne Wells, who took the trouble to write our name on their bal lots on election day. We were not a candidate and these good friends were aware of this, while they were sincere in their regard for me. they wished to publish their protest against the vacancy committee, who failed in the per formance of their sworn duty. It's too late now to make a scath ing review of this political blun der. but we would say that the lamented Johnny Williams was too good a man and making such a splendid and clean race, that when Providence laid his hand on him, some one should have been chosen to take up the stand ard which he was bravely sup-; porting anti carry it onto victory, ! or if must be go down to honor able defeat. As it is we may say the stigma rests with certain ones of that committee who stoutly stood out for "nothing doing.” Quinn is a good man and makes a good Treasurer; so was Johnny Wjlliams a good men and none better, and when he fell in the ranks, bravely fighting, some brave defender of the Dem ocratic faith should have been commissioned to gather up his sword and shield, and fight it out to a finish. Thanks to those who thought to honor me. * —l—B—M—!—— g—^Jl IMHiBr.
