The Blair Leader gays: “An editor
possessed of a vicious nature and a re
vengeful malicious disposition is cap
able of doing much harm in a commun
ity for a time, but bis career is usually
a very brief one. He may brood over
bis fancied grievances till be thinks he
is a much abused individual, and seek
redress by calumny and ' abuse, through
his newspaper, of persons who nerer
gave him a moment’s thought.” - The
residents of O’Neill and Holt county
know that these remarks are true.

his head and fire it. Death was immedi

The town of Clarenden is a little

hour or two, and he thought it was
easier to die.

Walt Mason: Somewhere else the
crowds are going, for the things they
find not here; looking for the stately
fortunes which their day dreams nobly
rear, like the knight who erstwhile
journeyed, chanting one old threadbare
tune, looking for the Eldorado, that is
hidden in the moon. Somewhere else
their eyes are turning and they curl their
lips and say: "This old town is God for
saken and is sinking in decay; some
where else a man has chances; some
where else a man can rise; here we never
have two coppers till they’re placed
upon our eyes.” Somewhere else! It is
a country where gold eaarles grow on
trees; where the greenbacks lie like
snowbanks, reaching often to your knees;
where the beggars ride on camels like
the sainted ones of old, wkere the stores
are made of silver and the signs are
made or gold. Somewhere else the
crowds are going, going bn with hope
ful cries; but that country lives in dream
land, and in dreams that country dies.
: State Journal, Jan. 29: The con
testees in the case Of the Elkhorn Irri
gation company vs. Frank M. Tyrrell,
Anna M. Huddeon, J. A. Huddson and
the O’Neill Milling company answered
yesterday before the state board of irri
gation. They allege that they have
transferred all their interest in the ditch
to the O’Neill Power and Irrigation
company and ask that this company be
made one of the defendants. They
state that the O’Neill Milling company
erected a mill in 1892 and operated the
mill by means of a canal conveying
water from the Elkhorn rlyer, the water
being used for milling purposes until
February 1, 1894. The company had
used water for irrigation purposes prior
to the construction of the canal in the
year 1894, and that the contestants knew
that the company was using water from
its canal before they constructed their
ditch or any part of it. The contestees
deny that the company abandoned the
use of water for milling purposes.
In 1894 the mill was destroyed by lire,
but insurance was not collected until
1895, and owing to depression in busi
ness the company was unable to procure
money necessary to rebuild. The com
pany posted a notice in the year 1892
appropriating all the water that flows in
the river and it is now the purpose of
the new company to use the ditch and
mill site, and it now claims the right to
use the ditch for irrigation as well as
manufacturing purposes and that they
have a prior claim, and if this claim is
disallowed their property will be ren
dered valueless.

FANTON IS CAPTURED
■... —. .. ~
Gaught at Hia Brother's Residence
In Omaha.
I • ' -.—
ti|E DENIES HIS IDENTITY
EMloys Fromineat Counsel end Reserte to
I Habeas Corpus.
iflherltf Hamilton received a telegram
fijg>m Omaha Monday staling that Fan*
t® was under arrest at that place, and
hjg went down Tuesday morning to
bigng him back to answer to the charge
alt cattle rustling. The World-Herald
gf|ce the following account of the arrest:
lohn Fanton, the alleged leader of a
quartette of Holt county cattle rustlers,
was arrested yesterday morning at the
residence of his brother, E. F. Fanton
of48*28 North Twenty-first street, by
Safgents Cory and Mitchel and Detect
ives Savage and Dempsey.
Yanton denied his identity, and when
asked if his name was Fanton said it
was Anderson. He had been going
uq^er the name of Morrison since he
arrived here about three weeks ago.
Concerning his arrest, he denied all
knowledge of the theft of the cattle,
and said he could wove an alibi, as he
was at home in bed at the Merchants
hotel in Atkinson the night the cattle
were alleged to have been stolen. He
averred his arrest was the result of a
political fight, and claimed that he had
a letter from a Holt county friend stat
ing that County Attorney Murphy had
promised Holmquist and Marrall lent
enCy. and possibly an acquittal, if they
would implicate Fanton in the theft.
He said he was an active worker for the
republican party last fall, and expected
in the event of the election of Brady,
the republican candidate for sheriff, a
position as deputy.
“1 do not expoct to get justice at the
hands of the populist officials,” be said,
“os' Holt county is now dominated by
that clement.” Fanton says he is
acquainted with Holmquest and Marrall.
A reward of *50 is up for Fenton's
arrest.
. Sheriff Hamilton, of Holt county,
arrived in the city last evening and will
leave for home at 2 o’clock this after
noon with John Fanton, the alleged
Settle rustler. Fanton is very much
averse to returning to his native heath,
and plied all kinds of questions to the
police officers yesterday afternoon to
see if he could secure a change of venue
before returning.
The sheriff declares that the only
legitimate grounds for Fanton’s dislike
to return are that the bona fide evidence
against him is so strong that lie fears
conviction for cattle rustling. The idea
that he cannot obtain justice from the
populist officials is scouted, Hamilton
declaring that Fanton is an unknown
factor in politics, having no pull that
the populists cannot squelch if they did
so desire, and even no substantial stand
ing as a citizeb, having jumped a board
bill at the time of bis departure.
Sheriff Hamilton says that none of the
cattle rustlers need have any fear of the
“protective association” as long as there
is any evidence that the law is taking
the proper course. He defends the
association, raying that it exists in the
Niobrara country forty miles away from
any officers of the law, and in a country
infested by cattle rustlers. r.
"ii, gain ue "cattle ruatlera make a
ateai, and the people had to go forty
miles for oificera, who must cover the
aame distance to the scene, the thieves
will have escaped to the reservation
across the river, and pursuit is almost
impossible. And then, it located, the
owners must wait for a deputy marshal
to take the thieves from the reservation.
The protective association acts at once,
and affords the only safe protection that
these people have.
Speaking of a late report that the
“protectives” had warned persons from
the country on suspicion of being spies
for the Barrett Scott adherents, he
denied the reports sent out to that effect
as untrue, and declared that no one
except cattle thieves had been molested.
Later advices state that Fanton was
taken from Hamilton’s custody Wednes
day on a habeas corpus, and that a
hearing will be had today. It is not
probable that he can avoid being re
turned to Holt county for trial. He has
employed Will Gurley as counsel, and is
prepared to resist return.

I have them marked down, after that

v WETTIATOHM IX JAIL.
Conrad Wettlaugher is in jail at Altoni
la., on the charge of obtaining money
under false pretenses. The following
communication from that place fully
explains the situation:
\ Alton, Ia., Jan. 88,1898.
County Judge, O’Neill, Neb. Dear
Sir: Conrad Wettlaugher, of Shields
township, Holt county, has gathered
two car loads of seed corn and from 8150
to 8800 in cash In this vicinity, repre
senting that he was appointed by his
neighbors to solicit aid for them, repre
senting that they were on the verge of
starvation, and that he and all of his
neighbors lost their entire crops by hail
storm last fall. He can only name John
Dillon, Mr. Rickler, Andrew Smith,
Mr. Boss and John Mathews as sufferers
with himself. He says that the country
was destroyed six miles wide and entire
ly through your couuty by bail.
Will you please let me know at once
whether he Is a truthful man, whether
he has been appointed to solicit this
grain and money, and whether he will
distribute it if released from custody,
and other information concerning him
self and hia neighbors who are on to the
verge of starvation? Yours Truly,
Will A. Wells.
On the botton of the above letter was
the following:
He has a recommendation signed by
W. W. Bethea, county clerk; C. W.
Hamilton, sheriff; and John Skirving,
district clerk, asking people to contrib
ute to him for the relief of the people.
He ia now under arrest and we do not
wish to inflict punishment on an inno
cent man. If he is a scoundrel and has
obtained this money and goods under
false pretenses we wish to punish him.
Please wire if be is poor but honest, or
If we shall bold him for letters from you.
Please advise by mail also.
Will A. Wills.
Wk. Hatcbinsox.
And other citizens.
Letters were also received by the First
National bank, Elkhorn Valley bank,
W. W. Bethea, and others. Answers
returned were to the effect that he is
poor and needy, and that some of bis
neighbors are similarly situated, but that
Holt county is amply able to provide
for him and them.
It Is to be regretted that some of our
county officials signed Wetllaugher's
recommendation as a relief rustler.
While the facts stated in the paper are
substantially correct, the truth is that
Holt county is amply able to take care
of her own. The officers signing his
credentials did so unthinkingly, and are
now sorry for it, but Wettlaugher came
to them with tears in his eyes and told
them a pitiful tale of poverty, .and
informed them that with their names on
his petition for aid he could go to his
old home in Iowa and secure funds for
his relief and the relief of his neighbors,
and they, moved by his overflow,
complied.
He is not altogether dishonest in pur
pose, as last ysar when this section was
in distress he went to Iowa and secured
large donations of-seed grain that was
very acceptable to bis neighbors, al
though it was suspicioned that he
rrceived considerable sums of money
that he planted in the depths of the
pockets of his overalls. In the distribu
tion of the grain at that time he incurred
the enmity of a number of bis neighbors,
some of whom, it is thought, have
written the people at Alton and gotten
him into his present difficulty. .
He should not be punished, but be
should be deprived of his documents
and sent home, and cautioned to do so
no more forever.
TUB CAUSE OF IT ALL.
Sloco writing the above we have re
ceived the following letter from the
Democrat at Alton, which confirms our
suspicions that Wettlaugher's neighbors
were responsible for his arrest. Some
of these men were among the first to de
mand a share of the relief grain solicit
ed by Wettlaugher last year:
Shields Township, Holt Co., Nee., i
January 22.1886. t
To Sheriff of Sioux County, Io.—Dear
Sir: We understand there is a man in
your county, soliciting aid in the name
of this township. His name is Conrad
Wettlaufer and he Is unauthorized to do
so; he is doing it on his own account. He
is of a sandy complexion, cross-eyed in
one eye. He is a German, heavy set,
weight about 180 pounds. He has no
authority to solicit aid for any township
in the county of Holt. We have had a
fair crop here last year. No one claims
to be in need. He tried to get the
county officers to sign his papers, but
they refused to do so. We would like
to know wjiat names he has on his
papers.
He threshed 1800 bushels of small
gfain on his own farm in the year 1895.
When he gets money he sits in the
house and makes his wife do the farm
ing. He has a natural propensity for
lager beer. He has spent all his surplus
money in litigation with his neighbors.
He is now under bonds to appear in the
district court for taking off two horses
belonging to one ot his neighbors in the
night and shooting them. Court sits in
February. This is a true statement. If
you have any doubts, we refer you to
the Elkhorn Valley band, First National
bank, county judge, county treasurer,
all of O’Neill, Holt county, Neb.
Please send us the names that he bas
on his soliciting paper. Direct to John
Bushart, Joy postoffice. Holt county.

Mr. Editor: I bare been requealad:
by the Nebraaka Club, of whleb I waa
made a director at tbe organization in
Omaba the laat of tbe year, to call a
meeting of tbe people of Holt county in
the near future to perfect tbe organiza
tion of an auxiliary club for tbia county.
A few worda regarding tbe ‘plana and
purpoaea of tbia club may not be out of
place here:
Tbia club waa organized in Omaha on
tbe 81at of December laat, by repreaenf
atlye citizena from nearly every county •?
in the atate.
Tbe object of tbe club ia to look after
tbe general welfare of the great atate
wboae name it beara; to advertlae ita
limitleaa reaourcea and advantagea, and
to counteract the falae and damaging
reporta concerning it which intereatad
defamera have Induatrloualy circulated?
and are yet circulating in tbe outside
world.
The club ia not organized in the inter^
eat of rallroada, real eatate men, or any
other apeclal claaa or clan, but for tbe
whole utate, and on the broad and com
prebeoalve theory that all of ita parta
are abaolutely eaaential to the perfection
of tbe whole. Ita central object will be
to keep all of Nebraaka to the front at
all timea and at all placea when and
where the moat good can be done, and
to leave no atone unturned or work
undone to the end that ahe may have «
fair trial in the race for aupremacy
among her alater atatea. Printcra’ ink
will be employed liberally, exhiblta will
be made, agendea eatabliahed, excur
sion* arranged, aa well aa many other
uaeful meana employed which in the
wiadom of the dlrectora will beat aerve
to acoompliah the deatred reauita.

Ai u index of its Impartial character, '
ae also ita ability to command the confi
dance of the people, the personnel of lu
officers may be pointed to. With
Governor Holcomb at ita bend» aaaiated
by our United States aenatora and con* ;: \
greasmen, et. al., whatever information ?
goes oat from the headquertera of thia
club, or from any of ita braachea, will
abmit of no doubt or anaploion aa to lu
reliability. With Intending immlgranU
looking for farms, with business men
looking for openlnga, with rapinrtfcte" %|
looking for Investmeota, with people
looking for health and plenum, the :\'-t
aonrce from which the information they r ':
aeek cornea to them, ia alwaya judged by
the character of thoae who aupplf it. *
In thia reapect the Nebraska club la
certainly happily equipped,
Already the daily preea of the atate
bar proffered ita unqualified assistance • ' ■
in the cauae, and the patriotic country
preaa ia rapidly following suit.
With Holt county thia ia a particularly
auapicioua time to inaugurate auch a
movement. With our vast irrigation
interests well under way, immigration
becomea an iaeue of great importance.
When our hundreda of thouaenda of
I acrea of fertile landa auaceptible of irri
gatlon are covered by the canala already .
under way ami othera under contempla
tion, an additional population of 00,000
people can eaaily be auatained. That
irrigation ia rapidly becoming an active
element in the growth and greatneea of
Holt county, la now plain to aee. The a
ao-called aouth ditch ia completed and
its landa are undergoing development, .
the big ditch will surely be conatructed
in due time, and many other smaller ••..*»
planta which augur much for thia local
ity are now under contemplation.
Second only to irrigation, then, ia the ?
question of immigration, and to the end
that our interesu are not neglected In
thia particular we owe it to ouraelves to
throw our influence into the scale with
the rest or the atate and weigh for all |
we can.
mat an auxiliary dab may be organ* ‘
ized (n Holt county, I would request
that everybody interested in the move
ment (and all should be) meet in the
court-house in O'Neill next Monday,
February 8, at S o’clock -p. k. "Stand
up for Nebraska,” is the motto adopted tP
by the club. Let us see bow many will
‘‘stand up” at the meeting next Monday.
Personal jealousies, business rivalries,
petty animosities, should all be laid
aside when the general welfare of the
community is at stake. Bad as these
evils are of themselves, they are par- ‘ 7
ticularly reprehensible when permitted
to stand In the way of the general
interests of the community. Let every
one turn out. Women are especially
invited to attend. Their influence is
wide and far reaching in every good
cause and none have a greater Interest
in the prosperity and happiness of the
locality than they.
All the towns of the county are re
quested to send delegations. These
delegations are not limited in numbers.
The more the better.
