Some of our citizens being presumptuous as to ,the conduct of John Watts, in regard to his discourtesy toward persons coming into his sanctum, presented a petition to the I. B. W., which called out an officer in the person of P. M. Marsh, to investigate. He, upon calling on Dan Feeley and some other citizens, for information upon the things set forth in the petition, and upon finding conflicting opinion, he vindicated Watts’ course of procedure, and retained him in office. The road has regulations to preserve order and decency about their depots, and it is presumable that agents are as liable to a bounce for allowing dead beats and loafers to take possession of them and make them a resort to carry on vulgarities and indecencies, as they are for acts of discourtesy to passengers. Now, if Watts has in any way failed to discharge his duty towards passengers or the public that does business through this office, he is amenable, and should step down and out; but as long as he preserves order and acts within the bounds of courtesy, he should be vindicated.
