Comstock, Chas. C. Jameson and Aquilla Triplett. Richards and Com stock were sentenced to imprisonment for one year and Jameson and Trip lett for etght months, besides being fined. We are frank to say that, whatever others may think, The Hei aid's sym pathy is with these men; but we be lieve that in expressing our sentiments ve express, also, the almost universal feeling of the people of this part of Nebraska. We do not for one moment sanction the violation of law, and we most heartily endorse all honest ef. forts at law enforcement; but it is self, evident that the penalty should be in proportion to the wrong done others. There are mitigating circumstances that should temper, if not altogether cancel, the penalty inflicted for techni cal violation of law. But few men have done as much for the development of this country as these men. From land that formerly was as unproductive as a desert waste they have brought forth taxable wealth; by giving employment to other men, and furnishing a home market for their produce, thev have helped in the set tlement of the country. In other parts of the United States are trust magnates who violate the anti-trust laws with impunity, their violation of law work ing a hardship upon thousands of peo ple; but those law breakers either go scot free or are let off with a fine too light for them to feel financially; while men, whose reputation for honesty and fair dealing is unsullied, are consigned to prison for technically violating law in bringing into productivity a hereto fore barren country. To us it doesn't look right. A New Professor Wednesday morning it was cold. And olthough most people wre shiver ing and buttoning their overcoats (if they had one) up tightly, one Herald office visitor came in with a smile that warmed the whole office force. The visitor was Prof. G. M. Burns, of the Alliance school force, who couldn't keep the good news and before we had time to ask the why and wherefore of the smile, whispered, "It's a boy; born at eight o'clock this morning. Doing fine." Prof. Burns was gone immedi ately but that was sufficient. This makes the third boy in his family whose birthday occurs on Wednesday. Hallowe'en Dance Attacks Marshal Martin and is , Chased by Posse. ' The wild west times of years ago were brought to memory last Friday morning and the mettle of several brave Alliance men tested to a finisji. R. McFall had been arrested by Cy Marshal Martin, who was taking him from the Alliance hotel, where he had been disorderly and drunk, to the police station. v At a point just across from the Ma jestic theatre and in the street by Wat son's grocery store, Officer Martin was attacked by R. E. Hughes, who struck him from behind, staggering him, Martin drew his revolver and fired at Hughes, missing him. Hughes then grabbed the gun and after striking Martin with it several times, and hold ing the crowd at bay, made for the railroad yards down the alley. Revolvers were secured from the Cook saloon by Simon Spry, F. W. Lester, Officer Martin and others and chase started for the fugitive. McFall was first captured in the alley, and turned over to a deputy. By this time Hughes had gained the yards and was making his way east along a line of box cars, looking for a hiding place, while he was being watched by a crowd from the viaduct; no one caring to ap proach him while he had the gun. With Spry and Lester in the lead with drawn revolvers, the posse made for Hughes, who seeing he was caught, turned and came back towards the band of men. He had placed the gun in his pocket and seemed undecided whether to shoot. He waB ordered to throw up his hands but refused at first, and if he had not complied with the second request the chances are that he would now be a dead man and he will probably never come nearer to death again. It required cburage and steady nerves for men like Spry and tester to advance on a man. known to be desperate as he was, and with revtdvert i.. r .- tj... .i .SiiVf 1CHUV 4U1 ilUUUII, UU1 MiCy WCJC4 there with the goods" and although they knew that he might at any mom ent begin dealing death with his re volver, they advanced step by step and with guns held at breast bearched him; took away his revolver and knife; and with the now thoroughly cowed man, who was regarded in a menacing man ner by the constantly crowiug crowd, took him to the city jail. Saturday morning McFall and Hughes were brought before Police Judge Sum for " trial. t McFall was fined five dollars and costs lor being drunk and disorderly; Hughes pleaded guilty to the charge of resisting an of ficer and creating a disturbance and was fined the limit, fifty dollars and costs. It is rumored that a state charge may he brought against him, but he seems well punished for his rash act and doubtless the lesson taught him this time will in the future cause him to keep as far as possible from Alliance Pictures were secured by The Her ald reporter of the chase and capture and can be seen at The Herald office. 'thTclimax" St, Matthews choir will give a dance in the Phelan Opera House October 31! 1910, Everybody invited. 45-2i-2i8 The W. C. T. U- will meet next J Thursday afternoon, Oct. 27th, with Mrs. Bigelow, The Coming Good Attraction at the Phelan Opera House In these days of dramatic depravity when anything and everything passes for art" it is a positive relief to wel come such a clean, wholesome and un deniably great play like "The Climax," which is booked to play in the Phelan opera house on Thursday night of next week, October 27. The story is of a young woman, Adelina von Hagen, who comes to New York from the middle west to study music and to develop her voice as a singer. She resides in the household of her instructor, Luigi Golfanti, and is beloved by his son, Pietro. She is also beloved by John Raymond, a young physician from her home town, A minor operation becomes necessary to relieve her throat. It is performed by a specialist after which Adelina is left in the care of Doctor Raymond. Previously, however, the girl has re jected both suitors, in order to follow the delightful will-o-tbe-wisp, a stage career V. Kaymond employs men tal suggestion to destroy the girl's abil ity to sing. The situations are in tense, although natural and unlabored. There is an unusual comedy relief, the two together forming what has been pronounced the best play in years. Myic plays such an important part in this beautiful little drama that it is often referred to as a melody play, "The Song of the Soul," sung during the performance, has become one of the most popular songs published in j ears. There is a haunting familiarity in all the music and the audience leaves the theatre trying to whistle it. While it is popular there is a decided intrica cy of the airs.
