CAPTURE Of Three Burglars-A Fight
I'm the Dark-Escape Of one OF the
Robbers.
Editors of the Register:
For the past two weeks the
people of this village and vicinity
have had occasion to notice the move
ments of few suspicious individuals.
So strong was the suspicion that they
were bent upon robbery or theft Of some
kind, that we thought it advisable to be
on our guard; 80 we let few of our
trusty neighbors know what was in
the wind" and occasionally a few OF
them would come in and stay with us,
and, sure enough, last night (the night
of the 25th OF June) the break" was
made upon tie house Of Mr.. Alexander
Lantz by three persons disguised and
well armed. Coming with rush upon
the door, they burst it open and stepped
in demanding Surrender" but 10 and
behold their surprise, when John Mar
tin closed the door behind them and
Augustus Wyatt, Levi NJ. Lowe and
others came in from an adjoining
room demanding of them to sur
render, which they refused to do:
The conflict began, and lasted until
light WAS procured, when it was
seen that one disguised man lay
mon the floor senseless, another lay
piled in the corner with A. Wyatt on
ton of him, and the other colIared up
in the other corner begging. Revolvers
pokers and hatchets were strewed IN
eyery direction. Luckily no lives were
lost but this is only hint at what might
have been. In about an hour after
thew surrendered, one of them made an
excuse to 60 out OF the house, and a
puard was ordered out with him, but
when they got few PAGES from the
house he had impudeace to knock one
of the guards on the back Of the neck
with his fist and then ran, but the con
tents OF several revolvers and muske'
were sent 10 pursuit, and he was seen
to fall, but arose again and made his
escape into q wheat field.
On the same night, a couple OF
John Martins horses were missing,
and were supposed to have been taken
by the one that had escaped, and, per-
haps, a colleague; but the horses were
found at daylight, about ten miles
away, grazing on the commons.
The remaining two were taken before
Justice and committed to jail to
await trial. don't believe we want to
be disturbed any longer by any such
neighborly visits. A. j.:

Governor Jacob u Candidate.

We notice that Governor j. j. Jacob
has announced himself as an independ-
ent candidate for Governor. We are
surprised at this. Surprised because it
makes him the Radical candidate; sur.
prised because it is an aba. donment
of the Democratic party; surprised be
cause the announcement is made after
a conference with the Radicals, and
through the leading Grant organ in
this State, the Wheeling Mtelhigencer,
This action Of Governor Jacob, in
refusing to abide by the result of the
Parkersburg Convention, and the con-
ference with radicalism, looks like a
surrender to the Grant party. He has
made the issue and must suffer the con-
sequence-defeat. An over anxious
disposition for Office has led Gov. Jacob
into fatal mistake. We are cory to
see this. He forfeits the good opinion
of an overwhelming majority of the
Democratic party, only TO gather
around him few hypocritical admirers
from tnt htpuulICdn iaHho, alhohS
whom may be found William E. Ste
venson and the editors of the Wheeling
Intelligencer. The question is now mar
rowed down to Camden or Jacob.
Never, perhaps, in the history Of
political parties has there been more
unmistakable disposition upon the part
Of the people to reward a meritorious
Democrat than was shown in the late
Parkersburg Convention, in giving to
J. n. Camden the nomination. He
deserved it, and he got it because he
deserved it; and. if We mistake not the
stuff ont of which the Democracy OF
West Virginia is made, that nonips'
ton will be ratified at the polls. A
few Democrats, who presumed to rule
the party, and failed, may 60 over with
Governor Jacob to Radicalism, but
the great mass of the party will stand
by the regular nominee of the party.

The Radical Candidate for Gov
~ efnOF.
Governor Jacob has announced him
self, in the Wheeling Inteligcnesr, a.
an independent candidate for Coy
ernor. The IntslHgencer lauds his rec
reancy and receives him with open
arms. We knew, even before the
meeting of the Parkersburg Conven-
ton, that the Radical leaders were
making desperate effors to induce Gov
ernor Jacob to run as their candidate
for Gubernatorial honors, but supposed
he had too much sagacity, and too high
a regard for his reputation to be caught
in any such trap. We were mistaken.
He has yielded to the seductive iuflu.
ences OF the Radical leaders in this
State, and has placed himself under
the protecting wing of Foreman, Ste
venson, and the authors and workers
of the Radical registration machine
which Democratic triumph two years
ago so completely smashed up.
We are in possession of some facts IN
connection with Governor Jacobs re-
creancy, not known to the general pub
lie, which we shall lay before OR read
ers in another issue, and which will
serve to place him in a less enviable
position than that OF Benedict Arnold.
We have not time for comment this
week. The Radical leaders may have
fiattered the Governor with the hope OF
reelection by the Radical party;
They know that it is impossible, and
only desire to use him for the purpose
of defeating the Constitution. He will
be buried beneath Democratic ma
iority Of ten Thousand, and the Constitu.
ton will be triunpbantly ratified
After the election he will have ample
leisure to repent of his folly, and will
fully realize the force of the following
beautiful and pathetic stanza:
Oh, when thinks Of what am,
And what used to was,
finds Use throwed myself away
Without sufficient cause.

A. J. PANNELL, Esq. of this city, has
been very favorsbly spoken Of by many
Democrats in-the First District as 3
suitable person torepresent the Democ-
racy in the State Senate, and very
general desire has been expressed that
he would permit bic name to come be-
lore the District Convention as a can
didate for the place. We regret to say
however, that he desires US to state that
he is not q candidate, and that he re.
spectfully declines nomination.
The Wheeling daily register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1864-1878, 1872-06-29

The JACOB men try to shield their
candidate from the dishonor of being q
"bolter" by alleging that his name was
not presented to the Parkersburg Con-
vention, and, therefore, be is not bound
TO ab de by the decision there made.
The excuse is mere bubble. Gov
ernor JACOB ocas a candidate for nomi-
nation by the Psrkersburg Convention
until few hours before the nomination
was actually made. The delegates
from several counties had been in
structed to vote for him, and a number
OF gentlemen in the Convention had
pledged him their support. After q
careful estimate, however, he concluded
that a majority of the Convention was
in favor of Mr.. CAMDEN, and he then
refused to be voted for. By every con-
sIderation that can influence an honor
able man, he is just as much bound
to support Mr.. CAMDEN's nomination as
Mr.. CAMDEN would have been had Mr..
JACOB been the choice Of a majority Of
the Convention. That he<pes not do
80, and has now thrown himself into
the ranks OF the enemy aud is labor
ing for the defeat Of those who gave
him all the distinction he has ever en-.
joyed, is proof Of the sagacity Of the
Democratic party, in refusing to give
him denomination.
