Thompson caught two Of the horses.
but instead Of returning to tho wagon
he travelled in another direction.
Mean time the murder bad been dis,
covered by travellers along tfe road !.
tho alarm was given. and a general
search for the perpetrators instituted, !,
but without avail
On Tuesday last Thompson arrived
At the residence Of one s.. George,
about ten miles south OF this city. lie
was from Frankfort, Mo, and was
looking out location for \ saloon.
81. George had his suspicions aroused !,
and insisted on his remaining day or

son finally agreed 10 do. lie assign

room with himself, aud vas not a little

by hearing Thompson talking in his

II did not kill Krippen no, III be

repeated several times during the
night
The next morning Thompson re.
marked thas he did not rest we'll that
he never could sleep well away from

George told him he did hear him NUT.

called on Mr.. Dawson ID. Anderson,
and related what he had seen aud

with all the facts Of the murder OF
KriPpin. aud knew Thompson 20 be 8
fugitive from justice. IL was agreed
between the two % induce Thompson
to 80 10 Hannibal, and there have him

sued on the affidavit OF Anderson. and
Thompson Was locked up To await the

Republican Responsibility for New
York Frauds.

The corruption which has for many
years prevailed in the municipal gov
ernment of New York says the World
is handled with great, but undue. elec.
lioneering effect by the Republican
presses and orators in all parts Of the
country. Nothing could seem more
plausible on a superficial view. or is Sc
fallacious in the light of facts. Peo-
pie in other States, who have no exact
knowledge of our domestic history oil
legislation, are easily deceived when
asked to look at the two broad facts
that New York City has been fol
years the chief stronghold Of the Dem
ocratic party, and that its municipal
government has been for years scan
dalonsly corrupt. But when the Dem
ocraiic party is held responsible for
the corruption, the most important
part of the situation is left out ofview.
During these twelve or fifteen years Of
fiagrant abuses, New York has not
been selfgoverned by its Democratic
voters, but has greaned under an odi-
Gus outside government imposed upon
it by a Republican Legislature at Al
bay. The people of the city have had
no liberty they have been bound in
CALLING Albany fetters; all this scand-
alous corruption is the direct fruit OF
arrogant and tyrannical Republican
legislation.
Fifteen years ago, in the Presiden.
tial election Of 1856, the newly formed
Republican party carried this State
high-aud.dry for Fremont, and re-
tanned its ascendancy in the Legisla'
ture until last year. But while the
State was republican, the city has been
.nyincibly Democratic. If the muni-
cipality had not been a place Of prodi'
gious wealth and great necessary ex-
penditure, the Republican Legislature
would have permitted it to retain the
same right of selfgovernment as other
localities. But the large sums which
pass through the treasury Of this vast
and growing city, we're too strong 0
temptation for Republican cupidity
The Republicans could not endure
that this money should be disbursed
under Democratic direction. They
ere unwilling that the numerous city
Offices should be filed by Democrats
they accordingly perverted the pow
ers Of legislation to impose on the city
am extraneous government of then
own creation. They thereby enabled
Renublicans to exercise authority here
where the Democratic party has LONG
been in a majority Of three to one
rhe corruption which afiicts aud dis
graces the city grew, grew up under
his outside Albany domination, O.
uainst which Democrats have always
protested 1t is absurd TO charge the
Democratic parry with state o
things which was imposed upon then
by outside Republican domination II

was printed near As possible in imitation
ofthe democratic ticket, but had the dem:

this attempt to deceive, early in the morn

upon SUCH dishonest practices.
