Another "reformer" has gene
wrong. On the night of Juno 27
an attempt was made to burn the
court houao at Mnuien and the
county treasurer said ho had been
aBBaultcd and about 19,000 of the
county money taken. He ban now
confessed that ho took the money
and sot the ( ire to hide his guilt ,
lie took the ollicers out in a corn-
liold and dug up $0,775 of the
stolen monoy. The court house in
Hamilton county burned under very
similar circumstances a few years
ago. Osoeola Record.
The fueionists ringslors socms to
liavo overlooked some of their
faithful members in apportioning
out the candidates for oflico. There
are Hovoral who have boon with the
movement from the first who have
not been rewarded , while others
ICHH faithful have been favored time
and again and are again slated for
a fat position. An instance in
point is that of county judge. Such
men as Jesse Gaudy who commenc
ed to beat the drum for populism
in its palmy doys. When the Cat
crook band aud Huso Brown were
in evidence at every school house
and on every etreot corner , crying
'down with the capitalists , " "bust
the banks and burn the bonds , "
JCSHO was either there or had his
baao drum in the front ranks.
Others loss faithful have fattened
at the public crib while Jesse has
been put off with broken promises.
In all tairuess , wo think , before any
person is taken up , Jesse should bo
remembered. Ho has boon admit
ted to the bar aud has won a num
ber of cases in court , showing his
ability for the position of county
judge on the fusion ticket. Yet ho
has boon completely ignored by
the ringutors and ho has not boon
given a friendly mention. Ho
would make an ideal pop officer in
any ollioo aud wo insist that unless
ho is placed on the lickot tins fall
that the party will bo guilty of rank
injustice.
The conditions of the crop are
anything but flattering in this
county at the present timo. The
spring \\hoat ia practically destroy
ed by the olnnoh bugs and the oatH
are being damaged by the grass-
hopporn. The corn is in a healthy
state and could stand another week
or ton days of excessive boat , such
as wo have boon enduring tof the
past two wneks , but in many tiolds
the chinch bugs have loft the wheat
and have commenced destruction
of the corn. Where wheat fields
were next to the corn this is in
variably the caso. Some tiolds are
aiUiotod worse than othors. Farmers
have resorted to various methods
to stop ( ho invasion of the bugs ,
but as yet nothing has proved entirely -
tirely successful. Fortunately there
are a number of cornfields where
there in no wheat oloso and they
have no chinch bugs , As much of
the corn is tassolliug uuloss
a good rain comes soon the ybld
will bo greatly lessened. Those
who had winter wheat or rye are
more fortunate aa it was harvested
before the chinch bugs got in their
work. Hereafter most of the
wheat sown iu this county will be
Bowotl in the fall. There are a
good ninny of the farmers who du >
ijlaro that they will new no more
wheat but will give tliuir tilno to
corn and fltook. While some will
increase thi'ir dairy Htock and give
their attention more ( o dairy
farming.
.Inn Hartley Out on I'arnlc
Tlii ) Siiiui.iy papciH nut oitnucd
that Gov. Savage had paroled Joe
Bartloy , the ox.stato treasurer de
faulter , for two months , lie had
boon tsontonocd by Judge Baker to
the penitentiary for twenty yearf
and had only nerved or four
years of the time.
The governor intimates that the
conditions on which the parole was
granted will bring about a restitu
tion , at loasla part of the funds
omhi'zzoiod , yet he does not so
explicitly state. This would imply
that his parole is in the nutnro of a
business proposition , whici the
governor thinks the people of the
ritato will approve , if the conditions
are complied with. As the parole
is for months if the *
only two , con-
'ditionH are not complied with ,
Bartloy outi and i\a doubt will bo
returned to the penitentiary. From
the Btan'dpoint of im-roy , and busi-
nese , the governor's action will
moot the cpproyal of a largo ele
ment of the state , but from apoliti
o l view it was not good policy.
Yet the courage of a man who can
rise above policy and public opinion
to do what ho believes is right and
Jor the best interests of the public
is to be commended. There has
always boon a general belief that
Bartloy was not alouo to blame.
This act of the governor may re
sult in determining more on that
lino.
County Central Committee Meeting.
The Republican County Central
Committee- mot in the oflico of Mor
gan & Skillman last Saturday after

The mooting was called to order
by Chairman Morgan. The al-
tondanco was the largest had for
years. The date of the County
convention was sot for Saturday ,
August 10 , at 10 o'clock a. m , , at
Broken Bcw. The basis of repre
sentation for the election of delegates -
gates was ono dolegate-at-large
from each precinct and one for
oyory ton votes and five or major
fraction of ton cast for E. Royso
at the last general election. It
was recommended that the primar
ies in the several preuincte. bo hold
on Friday or Saturday previous to
the county convention , as the com-
mitteomau in each procmot may
doom boat.
On motion it was dooidod that
the delegations present at the con
vention from the sovrral precincts
bo authorised to cast the full vote
of the delegation from their re
spective districts , aud that no prox
ies bo allowed.
The following resolution was
adopted :
WnitiiKAs , It has boon the cus
tom in former years to elect the
oommittoemou from the various
precincts at the time of holding the
primaries and their term of otlico
to commence at the close of the
convention ; and
WiiKitKAM , Wo belieyo ilfor the
best interests of the party and that
better work can bo accomplished if
said committeemen would have
longer time to got acquainted with
their duties ; therefore , bo it
RKSOLVKD , That wo recommend
that the committecmou elected this
year hold over until after the general -
oral election in 1002 ; aud that the
term of oflico of their successors
elected at the primaries in 1002 ,
commence 'on the day after the
election in 1002.
