Last Sunday Chief Myers received
dispatch from New Burnside on the Wa
bash railroad, asking him to keepa look
out tor two men who were suspected Of
having broken open the safe of Mr.. f. Nj.
Niece, CT New Burnside, and taken there
from about six thousand dollars. The two
men who are suspected were seen to leave
the town early Sunday morning, A reward
of one thousand dollars is offered for their
capture.
With an almost superhuman effort Il Q
corpucnt editor of the Pulaski Patriot has
managed to embrace himself and, in the cN.
ubcrance of his well feigncd delight, sends
forth the following self cougratulatoly
wall "Sincc our last issue we have taken
some pains to investigate the condition Of
county politics, aud are assured that the
Republicans of Pulaski were never more
solidly united and determined to win than
now" Now mark these words, spoken
last Friday in this city, in the presence of
representative of The BULLETIN, by
prominent white Republican of Mound
City: There is no more chance for tie
election OF Harris, the colorcd Republican
nominee Tor county clerk Of Pulaski coun-
ty, than there is for my going to heaven
with my clothes ON Does this indicate
Republican harmony in Pulaski county
is this the solid unity and determination
to win over which Roberts goes into costa
cies?
Someone entered the house Of Nj
Card, ON Fourth street, between Washing
ton avenue and Walnut street, Sunday night
and took theretrom q trunk containing
six hundred and fifty dollars and took all
but two hundred Of it. Entrance was
gained by back window, side door WAS
then opened aud the trunk taken out INTO
the yard where it was broken open with an
axe and railroad spike and robbed. \
negro who came here from the south, where
he had known Mrs. Card and family, and
who had been dong general work around
the house since then, is suspected of the
theft and is under arrest. There are strong
grounds for believing him guilty Of the
crime, as he has been unguarded in his an
swers TO questions put to him by Chief
Myers. But there are others suspected and
it may be that some more startling reyela-
tons will be made within the next few
days. This incident is another warming
against keeping large sums Of money in
places where 1t is not properly guarded and
handling in Il manner that it is exposed to
almost anyone who chances 10 pass in or
out Of the house, rs was several times the
case in tins instance.
Taking TEE BULLETINS little error
with regard to the name Of the man who
called the late Republican state convention
to order as a cue, BartOn's Free Press, with
an exhibition Of rather more Feeling than
50 insignificant matter lustiIlcs accuses
THE BULLETIN in a general way OF "bun
derlng ignorance and says such an error
was inexcusable. Barton is too severe IN
his Judgment, but he is II hot headed fell
low and is nothing, if not extreme, The
difference between "Long John" who was
not chairman, and Long Jones" who
was, is so slight that The BULLETINS error
is certainly pardonablc But the remarka.
bic thing about this acrimonious criticism
of Barton is that he entirely ignores the
important facts set forth in the item which
he undertakes TO criticisc, to.wit. that
neither the gentleman who called the San
canon county convention 10 order, nor
Long Jones' who called the state convcn-
ton to order, undertook to say who Of
those present should vote at the prclimi.

Republican who called the Alexander
county Republican convention together.
