Gle We published two weeks ago in regard
to the mob law demonstration at Bourbon
What we published was received from an
authentic source. and given to the public
as 1t was related to US. One of the oracles
of Republicanism in that vicinity said il
was true that the liquor was forcibly seiz-
ed and destroyed, and that those who
were engaged in Its idestruction were all
Republicans, but thought it was doing the
Republican party great injustice to hold
il responsible for their action. when il did
not endorse such proceedings. We accept
OF his admissions, but are strongly of the
opinion that the reverse of his assertions
Is true. We Deg leave to carefully lay
aside their assertion that they should not
be held responsible for such doings, and
place the odium on their party leaders, as
the legitimate offspring of their teachings.
The people of this town. and many villa
ges In the vicinity, have been fed on tenn
Perance speeches Astounding in sentiment
the same that was exhibited at Bourbon.
If speakers continually put forth such
sentiments as, Stop the liquor traffic,
Peacefully--6ut stop it," they must expect
that there are fools who will attempt to do
as they tell them, and they must also ex-
pect that the people will hold them respon-
sible. in moral point of view, for the ac-
ton of the fools aforesaid. They say the
liquor seller should be held res ponsible for
the conduct of men acting under the influ.
ence of liquor purchased of him. and we
can see no good reason why the rule should
not extend to those who put forth re5ell-
ious sentiments, as we'll as to those who
put forth bad spirits.
That the Republicans should now try to
throw the blame of this affair off their own
shoulders, is not at all strange. But we
hope, that in their anxiety to escape the
censure which their conduct Justly merits,
that they will not desert their dupes in this
their hour Of greatest need, but will come
manfully to the scratch and see them safe
through. We have no inclination to back
on anything we have said, notwithstanding
we are threatened with evidence which
will prove that We have published falsely.
p. S.--Since the above was in type, we
have received the following digest of the
evidence adduced ia the trial for assault and
battery with intent to kill. John Neidig
and others entered the store of Snyder and
demanded liquor. Snyder refused--they
searched the room. and started towards a
room where there was barrel of liquors,
Snyder told them to keep out of it,-said
if they touched the liquor, he would shoot
drew two pistols--Coxen ordered Sny-
der to lay down the pistols. or uncock them
Snyder dropped the pistols by his side
the search was then renewed; Coxen
jumped and caught Snyder, held him while
the rest took the liquor out into the street
and knocked in the head of the barrel.

More ThicVing.

Last Tuesday night young man BIZ The
name of Newman. who has been clerkine
for Mr.. Palmer for the past few weeks, was
arrested on charge of stealing pocket
book, containing about SIS and valuable
papers, from ID. R. Mckenzie. The cir
cumstances were about as follows:
Mckenzie went into the store to make
some purchases. and being in hurry,
started out, after paying for the articles,
leaving his pocket-book lying on the coun-
ter. Having occasion to use his money
after crossing the street, he discovered it
was gone, and Immediately went back to
the store and made inquiries about it, but
heard nothing concerning it. After search
ing where he had been after leaving the
store, he was fully convinced that either
Newman or some persons who were there
trailing. had taken it. The persons who
were there were afterwards searched, and
finding nothing, watch was kept over the
movements of Newman until he went to
bed that night. Between 9 and 10 o'clock
they searched the premises, and found the
pocket book, with all the money and pa
pers. 1t was secreted in an empty barrel
in the upper room of the wareroom. Two
boys who were at the back part of the store
room, saw him GO into the back room soon
after McKinzie left the store, heard him 90
up stairs and shut the door after him at the
top of the stairway. After tue money was
found warrant was issued, and he was
arrested in his room at the Fuller House
1t is supposed he would have confessed to
the commission of the CRIME, had it not
been for the oficiousness of a certain in
dividal who said to Newman when he was
arrested, keep your mouth shut"
Newman halls from the State of New
York. We believe he was arrested at
Huntington last fall. for attempting to vote
there at the October election. He came
here as a map peddler; and. before he
commenced with Mr.. Palmer, taught school
three miles west of this place.
