THEj Chicago Tribune says 1t is
stated by the Government authorities
in Washington that the arrest of
Messrs. Hcsing, Rehm, and Miller in
Chicago was the result of the success
full following up of clews upon which
revenue agents have been working for
the past three months, and that the ev-
idence against those individuals is 50
conclusive as to warrant the gravest
apprehensions on their account.
Dodgeville chronicle. [volume] (Dodgeville, Wis.) 1862-current, 1876-01-07

TUE Washington Chronicle speaking
evidently by authority, says: "It has
been asserted that Mr.. Blaine fed to
the cloak. room when The vote was call
ed on Mr.. Springer's third-term reso-
luton. He did no such thing. He
sat in his seat, looked the Clerk in the
eye as his name was called, and refus-
ed to answer. The ex-Speaker's digni-
~ in thus rebuking by his silence the
silly attempt to make political capital
might well be initiated by other presi-
dental aspirants. The White House
cannot be captured by trucking, and
Mr.. Blaine's position as a party leader
cannot be effected by such stupid
means as third-term resolutions"

THE absence of the editor this week
throws its issue mainly upon Messrs.
J. R. Grove and John NJ. Zimmerly,
who, we doubt not, will measure fully
up to the responsibility. Both have
experience, so that if two are better
than one, this number of the JOURNAL
ought to make show surprising any
previous issue.

DIsoRDERLY CoNDUCT-On We'd
nesday night four drunken men
made an attempt to break into
Mrs. Naomi Jones's house on
Broadway. They were entreated to
leave the premises, but persisted on
entering the house when Mrs. Jones
fired one shot from a revolver at an
upper window at the intruders. Three
of the night providers then secreted
themselves behind the fence on the
outside of the yard, and the other one
was attempting an escape, when the
police came along and gobbled up the
whole crowd and took them for safe
keeping to the lookup.
They were brought before Justice
Weis next morning, and after an ex-
animation they were each fined five
dollars, and each two dollars and fifty
cents cost.
The Mayor RENTED the fine.
Mr.. Weis said that such distur-
Dances are becoming too frequent in
our town, and he is determined that
the peace of the community shall be
respected by enforcing the law to
its full extent.
