"Runnel" Bates condemns Ex-Attorney
General C. J. Smythe, because
he made speeches against the re-nomination
of Mayor "Jim." Almost im
mediately Mayor "Jim" bobs up as a
friend of John C. Mabray, the confi
dence man, swindler, and broncho
buster. Thr.t's right "Runnel" give
it to General Smythe, he is too clean
to train with the gang you support.
Give it too Smythe, he belong to the
class of clean and decent democrats,
but they are not in harmony which the
municipal administrations. They do
not harmonize with gambling, prostitu
tion and debauchery; with graft,
swindling, and buncoism. Give it to
'em. In I'lattsmouth the Journal de
signated them as"Night Riders," "Ru
Rlux Rlans,"'and "Mollie Maguires."
That is style of condemnation the Jour
nal heaps upon the heads of democrats
who stand up for decency and purity.

The executive force of Lancaster
and Cass counties made quick work of
the Greenwood burglary and linen
larceny. On April lfc'th Andrew Bloom
was placed under arrest by detectives
from Lincoln. On the lDth Sheriff C.
D. Quinton landed the burglar and
thief in the county jail. Bloom made a
full confession of his crime. On the
2Jth a formal complaint was tiled
against him before Judge Mi Archer
and he entered a plea of guilty, and was
bound over to the District Court and
committed to jail. A formal informa
tion setting up the criminal offence was
filed on the 23rd, Bloom was taken be
forejudge Harvey D. Travis by the
sheriff where a plea of guilty was
entered and a sentence of four years in
th2 penitentiary was pronounced by the
court. There is no criminal prosecution
in the popular tense of the tefm where
one pleads guilty to a crime. The de
tectives and sheriff do the work in such
cases and save costs to the tax payer,
and Sheriff Quinton is to be com
mended. WOMEN WHO WORK ON

un-American, unpatriotic and unworthy
