It is a acand.il that brings Carbon county again in the limeilght and stinks to high,heaven. Gov. Simon Bamberger has had all the facts of the Indiana excursion ex-cursion laid before him, Tho Sun is informed it was his excellency's excel-lency's intention to discuss it at Wednesday evening's court house meeting at Pries, but other things occupied his time, Bryncr and Hamilton have certainly laid themselves open to tho suspicion that thero Is moro in this Indiana trip for them than free meals, free hotel bills, free railroad fares and other free entertilnment. |
