to the roll were obtained, and appearances
indicate that the Second Ward will furnish
full quota to participate in the procession.
During the retirement of the committee to
L.. u.
called upon and addressed the meeting. He
said that the question now before the people
was the old question of whether this was ma
ton or an aggregation of States. he re-
viewed in detail the history of the legislation
in regard to the purity of the ballot-box, and
the efforts made by the Republican party to
preserve the freedom of the elective franchise.
The Democratic party had declared that the
war, which had given birth to the Republican
party, was a failure. But we knew that with
the great military chieftain U S. Grant to
guide Us that the war could not be failure.
The Republican party has brought the
finances of the nation TO an unprecedented
condition. c. L. White next addressed the

SHOP BURGLARY.-About II o'clock last
Sunday night, the market of Anthony &
Longton, at the corner of K and Fifth
streets, was entered and the money-box
robbed of about Si1, being its contents. The
matter was reported to the Chief of Police,
and officer Fredericks looked after the case.
From circumstances connected with the affair
he soon became satisfied the robbing was COM
mitted by some one well acquainted with tbs
premises. This together with other points
gained by the officer in commercially brief
time, led him to arrest young man named
Ignacio Romenette, who had been recently
in the employ and discharged by Anthony &
Longton. He at FIRST denied any knowledge
of the affair, but finding the evidence was
accommodating against him he confessed that
he did it, and that no one else was concerned
in the robbery. Owing to his youth and his
hitherto good standing, the Prosecuting At
torney consented to allow him to plead guilty
to petit larceny, and he will to-day receive
sentence.
