Show .. DUNLAVY'S SALARY- GRAB. .. As to the communication Written by Or. Thayer (or. In all probability. N. II. Dresser), which was published In the l.uft campaign sheet before the election1! . ' ' Tho writer of this, two years ngQ, bo-lore bo-lore Judge Dunlavy's election, luet tho gentleman In Salt Lake and had a conversation con-versation with him relative to the meager mea-ger salary of the city justlco of Mercur, Mer-cur, nnd whether or not It would Justify Jus-tify him In running Tor tho ofilco. At Hint tlmo tho Judge mentioned tho fact that a certain attorney at Tooelo bad been employed from time to time to give legal advice to tho city of Mercur Mer-cur and asked if It would be right and consistent for him to glvo the counrel which ho Is capable of doing and thus receive tho remuneration, to slightly Increase tho Bcanty salary of the city Justice. At that tlmo wo endorsed en-dorsed the Judgo's views nnd wo do mi still, nnd we aro of tho opinion tnt that Is about all there Is to thn ''outrageous ''out-rageous conduct of Judgo Dunlavy." The city fathers could Just as well pay ono of their own people for that which he has to sell, If tho article Is good (and wo believe It Is), ns to go eighteen miles nnd hire n man who does not benefit Mercur ono cent. Consistency, oh consistency, how fur you aro from somo people! |
