EMMONS. SLIP FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1895. when we remember Low soft and sweet your Polk and Livingstone talked to the old soldier boys about the "wan being ova" and the messages of fraternity and love that the of the south sent to the sojahs of the noth, while the said Folk and Livingstone and your outfit were Last week we announced the arrest of William Correll and Tviward Heagaa on the charge cf grand larceny, for robbing stores, On Saturday afternoon the two young men were brought before Judge easier way to obtain a living than through the legitimate channel of work. Their sad experience will doubtless prove a lesson to several other young men of Wash-inzton county. The boys were taken to the penitentiary by Sheriff Mitchell on Thursday, over the Central Branch, and by noon to-day they will probably be known only by number, and may be at work in the coal mines six hundred feet under the ground.

Anything to have a following, and to be kept at the front, is all the leaders of the Confidence Game of Populism care for. they played upon us, we are constrained to look with a certain degree of distrust upon these, blatant pretenders. These are not the soldiers who stood facing us of the union army on the battle fields. Those men were too brave to resort to such subterfuges to gain by intrigue and confidance games what they lost on the field of battle. If we could know that these pretensions were really sincere there would be a far different feeling among us but there is too much evidence to the contrary.

Every advance we make toward them only seems to open up the way for them to wound us more deeply. There are true and loyal people in the south, but they are a very small minority as far as we can learn. NOTICE Of County Commissioners Meeting.

Lewie would like to hear our complete war record and know it as he knows our back to the steel ease in the county jail. So quietly and so rapidly was the business transacted that but few cf the people on the street knew what was going on until the announcement was made that it was all over. Charles Smith was attorney for Ed. Reagan and Xeil Graham for William Correll. Each attorney made a speech of about five minutes, and the Judge in delivering the sentence and in his splendid words of advice to the condemned won the admiration of the entire audience.

Owing td the fact that the Register goes to press on Thursday at noon, and that very little information was obtainable last week up to that hour, we were unable to give cur readers any of the details of the affair. The Post, which goes to press on Friday evening, was enabled to give the following details "On last Saturday night Simon's clothing store was broken into by" prying up a back window and hats, coats, vests, shoes, pants and other goods were taken, aggregating in value about 100 dollars. Mr. Simon reported the matter to Sheriff Mitchell who at once began a thorough investigation of the matter. By Wednesday he had such a complete net cf evidence wove around Will Correll that a visit to his house resulted in the finding of all the goods Simon had lost on Saturday night and some of McElhany's good3.

Mrs. Correll dropped some remark that cauled the officers to believe Ed Reagen was one of the guilty parties and he was arrested at once. Correll had left the city in the evening and Sheriff Mitchell swore in several deputies and sent them to the country with directions how to proceed. Ed Vincent and Dr. Xelf were sent to Hanover to head off any escape on the Grand Island miel-night train.

Under Sheriff Foote, Deputy George Carroll and Constable Osborne were sent to Jenkin Jones' farm where Elsworth Corrall works. After midnight Correll and his brother came to Jones' house and entered. The officers surrounded the house and Undersberiff Foote demanded entrance. Corrall tried to escape and for a few seconds it looked like a bloody fight was on. Correll tried to escape through a window and did not peaceably surrender until one of the officers had fired a shot.

lie was arrested, brought to the city and locked up. A further search of his house led to the recovery of probably two hundred dollars worth of MeElhanys goods and a lot of loots and shoes identified by Mike Furcell and Dave Boyington as being Gano's.

But the Champion is likely to be a little off in this respect. The Reoisteh thinks it is mostly because when the Republican party of Kansass had been carried to defeat largely through its unwavering fidelity to Mr.

Ingalls, that gentleman failed to exhibit the same unwavering fidelity to the Republican party. This is a very important fact which the Champion is not iiv position to remember just now, but the stalwart Republicans of Kansas can hardly forget it.

oods: We repeat it again and a -rain, and it is as plain as small pica print, that the great silver agitation is originated and being pushed by the enemies of the Republican party for the purpose of preventing voters from seeing and remembering the real cause for all our troubles, the tariff tinkering of the Democratic party. The promises of free trade and of a general revision of the financial system closeei up business and precipitated a panic before the Democracy got control of the country, and their attempts to run the affairs of the country have proven only more disaster-ous than their promises indicated. They want us all to talk and quarrel about silver and forget these thinss. Get the country back into the hands of its friends and there need be no fear about thtrn being able to adjust the business and the finances to the needs of the people as they always have done. That is the solution of all these minor questions.

Corrall and Reagan told us last night that they would plead guilty" to the charge of entering Simon's store, aud Correll is anxious to eret his sentence as soon as possible. He has a wife and two children. By the capture cf these parties Sheriff Mitchell has won the admiration of everyone and one reason of the small earnings of our business men has been discovered. The stolen goods consisted of thread, braid, lace, trimming, hats, clothing, shirts, underclothing, socks, hose, neckties, suspenders, rubber boots, artics, overshoes, baby shoes, men and women's shoes, combs, silk twist, canned goods, dried fruits, beans, dress goods and other things too numerous to mention.

Jacob held the article one day and returned it with the explanation that, as matters between himself and Senator Rogers were situated, he did not see his way clear to publish it, and inquired if the article really contained a statement of facts. Mr. Clarke vouched for its truthfulness and gave him the name of another Democrat who would do the same. We will state for Jacob's benefit that it was not expected that he would publish the article and it was only-tendered him for the purpose of ascertaining how far he had fallen r.uder the Rogers Calling us names is aJ poor answer, Bro.
