ST.. Paul, Sept. 2l.-The Pioneer
fress has q special from Adelia, watou.
wan county, Minnesota, announcing the
capture OF four of the NorthGeld rob.
bers. The four captured are those lost
track OF in the timber around Makota.
two of whom are supposed to be the no.
ted Younger brothers. The dispatch
says the four captured robbers wen, to
the house of q man about seven miles
north OF here. bought some bread and
butter and started west OH foot. The
news was sent in as fast rs horse could
travel. Forty or fifty men were after
them as soon as they could get horses
and arms. They discovered them about
eight miles north of here. They then
had them ont on the prairie and opened
IRE on them. The robbers returned the
ire, bnt kept walking toward the river.
aud ut last got there and hid in the bush.
es. BY this time our men were all toge.
Their and surrounded the bush the rob
bers were in. The firing became gene.
raj, our men advancing all the time. at
last the robbers saw there was no use
and gave up. One was killed and the
other three are wounded. One has only
wound in the arm, one that is suppos.
ed to be Cole Younger is wounded bad.
~ in the head, and the other is wounded
IN the jaw and shoulder. IL is thought
that one, and perhaps two, will die of
their wounds. Ono of them has an old
wound III his arm, and is supposed to be
one OF those wounded at Northield.-
Capt Murphy was wounded in the side
and Gen. Bradford's arm was scratched,
but they are both only slight wounds.
The Pioneer Press specials from Sioux
City say the two robbers who were chas.
ed into Dakota were ovcrtalten by cit
liens posse six miles above Yankton TO.
day. The robbers when sighted turned
and fired, wounding one of the pursuers'
horses, and then took TO the woods and
were again lost sight OF, The hunt is
being continued, and il is thought will
certainly end in running the bandits
down.
Gov. Pillsbury has telcgraphed to the
local officers at Adelia to at once send
to this city the wounded robbers and
the body III the dead one, and they will
be here tomorrow.
THE YOUNGER DGoTHRRS.
The wounded robbers have confessed
to the sheriff, WHO has them in charge,
that they are the Younger brothers, but
refuse to give the name Of their dead
comraic.

the prospects Of the prolongation Of the

all is now likely to go right. The Mo.
hammedan religious festival, opportune-
~ occurring at this time, will make an

like a religious duty. England having

proclamation Of Prince Milan as King
Of Servia is enthusiastically received by
the population. 1t is believed that the
Prince and his ministry only disavow
the act because Of the strong diplomatic
pressure exercised by the powers, par
ticularly Russia. When proclaiming
royalty the Servian army also declared
the abolition Of the Servian Constitution
and the conferment OF absolute authority
on Prince Milan. The Servian Govern.
ment have recalled the soldiers of the re.
serve and the wounded from the front.

TiIden's Election Sure
Keep the Democratic Camp
Fires Burning!
A VICTORY IS OURS !

WE have delayed our paper until
Thursday morning in the hope that
we would be able to give something
definite in regard to the result Of the
political contest in Ohio and Indi-
ana on Tuesday last; but we fail,
although the very latest indicates
that Indiana has gone Democratic,
and that "Blue jeans WILLIAMS is
elected Governor by about 5000 ma
jority!. In Ohio the contest is very
close-both parties are claiming the
State with the chances in favor of
the Republicans. But, Democrats
and friends of Reform! We have
made a glorious fight against the
10000 ofice-holders and the thieves
of the Grant administration! Keep
the fires burning! The skies are
bright! TILDEN and HENDRICKS
WILL BE ELECTED! The contest in
Ohio and Indiana shows that the
people WILL MAKE A CHANGE!
That Grantism and it's robberies and
unblushing rascalitles are dead and
damned, and will be buried beyond
resurrection next November, and his
offiee-holding minions and thieves
turned out to make an honest liv-
ing! Move on the column! Don't
relax your efforts! Don't open your
ranks! Fire. your broadsides into
their rotten organization! And
VICTORY awaits US in November

BOGUS TICKETS.

At this writing Tuesday, we
know nothing of the result ofthe cleo
tion in this County, but whatever it
may be, it would be nothing more
than right and %justial 10 prosecute
the persons who printed and circu-
lated the bogus Democratic tickets
at the different voting precincts. BY
them men were defrauded out of their
vote, and as there is a law against
such business, we are in favor of
making an example of the persons
who engaged in it. If such rascali-
ty to defraud and cheat men out of
their votes is permitted to go unpun-
ished, our elections are simply a
farce and in the hands of the un-
scrupulous political gamblers, and
the honest masses may as well stay
at home and permit them to go by
default.

COUNTY ELECTION.

The result in this County is not
just as we desired it, although we
freely say that for tie past ten days
We entertained but little hope of it
being otherwise, especially on the
County ticket, and particularly our
candidate for Sheriff. A desperate
fight was made against Mr.. Jewell
EN-, and everything that was unfair
and dishonorable done to defeat him,
even down to the printing of unlaw-
full and bogus tickets with Swisher's
name on them and palming them up
on Democrats as the regular Demo
cratic ticket. We will probably have
more to say upon this subject in the
future.
The vote in the County was very
large-the largest ever polled-and
shows that our County is rapidly in
creasing in population, or else there
we're tlamps on hand. We give be-
low the official majorities of the sew
eral candidates:

There is no use of being deceived.
Developments have came to light
that demonstrates beyond question
that the present Republican Admins
tration is the most corrupt that ever
existed. The laboring man, the man
oppressed with deot a find no relief,
so long as the Republican party I'M
der present management remains in
power. There is no possible reason to
expect a change until there shall be
a change in party to administer the
government. A change cannot be
for the wort. This nation has com.
mitted no sin that deserves a pun
ishment like the curse of 4 continu-
ance of the Republican Belknaps,
Robesons, and corruptionists gener-
ally, to impoverish the masses
Every woman and child knows that
the Republican party have had con
troll of the government for the past
fifteen years, and that party is re-
sponsible for the present hard times.
Poor men cannot longer afford to
vote to make themselves poorer to
enrich the dcfrauders.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-10-12

There are Republicans who say
there is no difference between the
platforms of the two parties. This
is not true in letter, and it is far
from being true in spirit. The Re
publican Platform affirms the re-
sumption act, while the Democratic
platform favors the repeal of it. 1t
is true the Republicans affect re-
form. But that is all neutralized by
the single act of endorsing Grant.
and commenting him to the coun-
try" 1t is all n~eutralized by the
fact that they proposed to be in fav-
or of civil service reform in 1858, and
again in 1872, but as soon as the cleo
ton was OYER forgot it. The last
four years of Grants administration
is worse than the first; and the next
four years Ct Hayes will be nc, bet
ter; for the same men who run and
tcoatroEled Grant, will rnl fd7con-
troll Hayes. Hayes is an amiable,
pleasant man, who will easily fall
right in with the old ba;tle-worn
warriors of political life. Let every
man who votes the Hayes ticket re-
member he is Only voting in effect fol
q third term for Grant.

If there had been a square fight
between Dennis Lewellen and VIM,

MCMAHON ELECTED |!
FRAUDS AND LIES DIDN'T WIN!


At the present writing (Wednes
day morning. there is but little doubt
that JoHS A. MCMAHON is reelected
By from 100 to 125 majority. That
is satisfactory, and when we consid-
er the efforts that were made against
him-the Icing documents scattered
all over the District in regard to his
votes and course in the last Con-
gress-the result is glorious. We
have not the official vote, but there
is no doubt Of his election! How
are you, Mr.. WILLIAMS?
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-10-12

Hayes was q member Of the Thir-
ty ninth Congress, and was q salary
grabber. He was elected when the
pay of a Congressman was $4,000 a
year, and he voted to increase the
salary to $4,000 a year and the law
being made retroactive and passed
July %, 1859, he drew pay from the
day he was sworn into office, at the
rate of $4,000 a year. BY this viola
ton of his implied obligation to serve
his constituents at the rate of $4,000,
he pocketed $4,000 extra for his first
term, and 81, 500 for the nine months
he served of his second term. He is
a salary grabber to the amount of
$500, stands branded before his
country with unfaithfnlness in q
trust and expects people who refus-
ed TO elect salary grabbers to Con-
gress to vote for him for President.
