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. I M. E. MANSPEAKER, PLATTSMOUTH, KEB. X t 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 PAYNE TARIFF BILL.
