Seward Gateway:
A lively little discussion between

m., Jan. 25th: when the Evans reach

tied up alongside the dock. At the
time a regular blizzard with heavy
snow was raging. The master of the
! Evans requested permission to make
! fast alongside the Northwestern until
the storm abated, which permission
was flatly refused by the veteran
master of the Northwestern, and the
Evans was compelled to lay in the
, stream endangering the_ lives of the
I passengers and crew, much to the
disgust of the officers of the Evans.
Hut realizing that it is a long road
; that has no turn and that one good
! turn deserves another, they waited.

CANTON, 0., Feb. 4. — A brass
buckle on his belt saved the life of
Michael Mercy, of this city, when one
of two men who stopped him near his
home fired a revolver at him from a
distance of a few feet. The impact of
the bullet knocked Mercy down, and
as soon as lie fell his two assail:.nts
turned and fled.
As nearly as we can g;ot at it, red
tape is nothing but a system which
requires six months to do a job that
action could do in as many days.
