Brady Likely to be Adjudged Guilty.

Brady Likely to be Adjudged Guilty.
Special Dispatch to the Times-Democrat.
Washington, August I4.-The opinion is
growing that Brady is the only one OF the star
route defendants who will be adjudged guilty
by the Jury. The foundation of this opinion
is that the evidence against him is stronger
than against any of the others. Brady is not
popular with any of his co-defendants. lie is
said to be stingy, intensely selfish and very
disagreeable in his manners. Those who
know him we'll say that the amount of whisky
which he daily consumes is enormous. lie
manages, however, to keep at all times. a
pretty clear head. Ex-senator Dorsey is the
only one of the lot who appears to have any
sympathy from the public. He is very gen.
erous with his money and this trait in the eyes
of many, covers multitude of faults. Brady
papers have undoubtedly done him incalcula-
BILE harm. Their tone has been SO low and
their temper SO agressively savage as to dis
gust the public.
John Walsh appears to be waiting for the re-
suit Of the trial very patiently. He declares he
ants, except Brady. He certainly hates Brady
as bitterly as it is possible for rome man to hate
another. 1t is doubtful, however, if he ever
succeeds in collecting from Brady the money
which he claims Brady owes him. The belief
is that Brady is putting his property into cash,
S, that Walsh will not be able to find anything
to levy on if he should happen to get judg-
ment against him. 1t is reported that he is Of
fer;ng his interests in the newspaper properties
in this city for sale. The papers are the Critic,
an afternoon sheet, and the Capital, Sunday
paper. Neither paper, apparently, is in very
prosperous condition. They could both, how
ever, be easily made paying properties.

Fire at Ay0ca.
Richland Republican

Richland Republican.
At the early hour of seven o'clock
last Monday morning the people Of
Ayoca were aroused by the cry of fire,
and proceeding 10 the scene found the
deyouring flames to be gnawing the vi
tails out of the store building of Mr..
kinzie, in the second story of which
Prof. r. J. Porter and family resided.
The flames spread SO rapidly that it
was impossible to prevent them from
destroying the building, although the
IRE department of the town. was out
in full force and did excellent service,
SO the saving of adjacent property was
resorted to, the destroying element
being thus confined to the one building.
Most of Mr.. Kennels goods were
saved, as were portion of those of
Mr.. and Mrs. Porter. The loss which
the latter most regret, is their library,
private papers and many keepsakes
and family treasures which money can
not replace. Their property was insur-
ed for $1,000 in one of Capt. Barron's
companies, and Mr.. Porter was in town
Monday giving the Capt. particulars.
No doubt the loss will be made good
and satisfaction dealt out to Mr.. Porter
by the company as soon rs possible
Mr.. and Mrs. Porter have the sympa-
thy of our people in their loss.

Miss Rose Bowling has not been
around visiting our school as yet. The

reason for this.

on which he will build an elegant resi-

Redistricted.

The agony Of redistricting the county
that has distorted the brains Of Iowa
county politicians for the past year.
has subsidized. and the county is again
divided into assembly districts.
This was affected on Tuesday of last
week, by patent process, unknown to
former geographers. The method is
very simple when understood. The re-
publican gentlemen who had the con-
tract, proceeded by borrowing county
map, and last years Blue Book. They
unfurled the map on the floor of the
county root-houSe, shut both doors,
and packed saw-dust between them,
stuffed their hats into the vent hole,
then laid the Blue Book on the map, on
section 4, town 6. range 3, and opened
the book at the place where the last
presidential election is recorded.
This being done. and the contractors
feeling that they were secure behind
the saW-lust from the gaze of the vul-
gar public, they lay down around the
map on their stomachs, with their
heads to the center Of the map, their
eyes on the Blue Book, their noses
provided with electric lights, and their
legs disposed and radiating out like.th
arms of a Lull-wheel IN saw mill,
they proceeded to trace the desecting
lines in tortuous courses over the map
from north 10 south. keeping their eyes
on the election returns so as to see
that too many democrats did not get
into republican districts. After they
had finished the work, they filed up
the holes dug in the floor of the root
house by the ecstatic delight manifest
ed by the toes Of their boots. picked up
al their tracks and hid them, aad began
searching in the vent hole of the root
house for their hats, found that an en-
| terprising democrat from the outside
had removed the hats up to the light OF
day and obtruded his head in the hole
