FIRE city attorney.
VALDEZ.—City Attorney Charles
G. Ganty has been fired by the city
council. The council notified the city
attorney, who draws down $25.00 a j
month, that a spirit of retrenchment
had suddenly taken possession of j
them and that his head must come off,
so that the taxpayers be not called
upon for too great a sacrifice.
The action of the council became
known yesterday when the city attor
ney received a formal notice of his
dismissal.
Much speculation has been caused ,
by the announcement. Friends of
Ganty, who is also clerk of the school
board, insist that the action of the
council was taken following the re
fusal of the attorney to accept city
warrants in payment for school sal- j
ries. Others insist that the retrench
ment plan is buncomb and that 1. is
planned to put Oliver Perry Hubbard,
of Hubbardville, in the position at an
increased salary and failing to do
that then the aforesaid attorney will
be hired for any special work that the
city may require.—(Prospector.)

When Ned is feeling lucky,
Or has a busy hour
We really believe his one best bet,
Is that famous Eastern Sour.
• With crushed fruits from the tropics,
And ice from this Northern Land.
; And Sherwood Rye, he frames a drink
That tastes just simply grand.

Fate held out nothing on his taste,
And he measures every drop,
And when you've tasted that “best

You scarce know when to stop.

Makes most anyone* a star,
But we’ve got the goods, and we’ve
