In the district court on last Tuesday Attorney 'onley won every case which come to trial in which ho was interested lis an Hl.tornesy und he had far more cases thau any other attorney who was present. it is a noticable fact that those w ho make the biggest kit k against the elect ion of . onley as county attorney nr. those who have been charged w ith crook ed work. That is a good argument it. favor of Couley for that oliicu. The heaviest arguments in the col umns of the gang organ of late are idiot, importation, sheeny, liar. etc. mostly di rected at the editor of this paper. If is quite likely that such arguments will be looked upon by the voters of Sioux county as unanswerable. On last Saturday, four applicants for teacher's cert.

Mr. Klien hag seen li to misrepresent the case, and we liki him would like to have the public know Hie facts of the caso and thus decide whether Judge Barker was justified in releasing airs. Shay on a writ of hl corpus. As to the law Jlr. Jvleiu uUut to uphold his statements, we 'wiH je'er him to sec.;i"i.i and sec. 331, crirn. oode of the compiled sUtulen of Nebraska and it he needs any more law we would refer lim to the 1 1th volume of Nebraska re pans. iow wime we concur Willi jam in saying that it was a dastardly crime we cannot concur with him in his -Mote ment wnen he says it was proven clafcrly initi sue put out me poison, aiow were was no proof whatever to that effeclind the only thing that was JiroVen IS'asHiat sho was in the neighlwrhood at that lime ud traveled over that road and there was no evidence to show when tlu.t poi son was put out, whether it was before or after she was there or at the same hue. Now v.o do not say that there was not the It i. t bit of evidence to prove ither her gtiik or her innocence. While we say with Mr. Klein that the party or irties putting out that poison cannot bo dealt to severely with, we do believe that every one is entitled to justice and hould not be condemned until proven ruilty and wu as taxpayers do object to large bill of costs being made for us to help pay for the mere purpose of satisfy- iinyone's suspicions or gratifying llieir jiersonal spite. .

I notice in the Sioux ountv Urr'ihl a communication from aniel Klein, win i.s trying to gain noto riety as a writer for that sheet, and keep his name before the public. Orville liauk, who was employed by theZiraW tho past year to w rite fiction, lias depart ed to parts unknown and as that paper, tho Ilnrahl, has very little except fiction to place before its subscribers, it was in want of a first-class liar. This ther em X have found in the, person of Daniel and to take his (statement of the use the readers of the Htrahl would suppose that he really was cast into the lion's den. lie seems to be especially grieved by the acts of tho county judge and the sheriff. He docs not understand hy Judge Barker could not hold Mrs. Shay without evidence, and also ques tions the right of the county court to even look for evidence again.-.t her and censures him for not holding her without videtiee. He is at a loss to know why Sheriff Ueidy docs not arrest John Shay. As ueur as can be learned John Shay is not in the state and his whereabouts are unknown to Sheriff lleidy as well as to other parties. The sheriff is opposed to avehngover the country at the expense of the county without knowing wltcre to Mud the man ho is looking for. It would be similar to taking a trip to Virginia and have the county pay for it as 1 uniel did when ho was commissioner or follow ing' loni Klo to Tennessee ns the ex sheriir did at a great expense to the ounly without (hiding his man or any thing being accomplished. If Mr. Klein will refund to the counlv the money he lias been accused of steal ing and perjuring himself to obtain from Sioux count Vc no doubt the county of ficial will dispose of it in the let pos sible way for the urrest of John Shay. Mr. Klein also seems to have a dread ol the election of Attorney VOoU iMfjp Ui.il.be. iliiwOiHl: .Tlwt prayer may im applicable by (he next term ol di.-tr.ct court for lie is aware, no Joubt that tlie law will have no help for nun.
