Will Long, a young man about twenty-two years of age, was arrested Fri day and confessed ho hr.d robbed the Green pool hall tho night before of sixty dollnrs. Upon Long's father making restitution of the money, Mr. Green declined to make complaint, and Long was given twenty-four hours to leave town. Quito naturally the oillcers feel somewhat peeved over Green's ac tion in refusing to file complnlnt nirninst Long. They argue, and right ly too. that if men who place them selves in the criminal class aro al lowed to go unpunished, there la. lit tle use of the oillcers hunting them down. To escape punishment is an in contlvo to perforin other unlawful acts. During Fridny Long, who was never known to possess money, spent coin so freely thnt suspicion was attached to him, and this with tho further fact that he was a habitue of tho pool hall, resulted in his arrest. He signed a written confession which Sheriff Sal isbury will keep as a menento of the burglary. night.
