The balance of MIR. Leavitt's confes-
sion relates to his movements after the
murder. Before leaving Sioux City he
gave his address to the authorities and
expressed willingness to come back at
any time he was wanted. The testimony
OF Leayitts wife accompanies his CON
fession and corroborates 1t so far as she
is able to throw any light upon the mur-
derous transaction.
1t appears from this confession that
the assassination was the result of a
conspiracy among the saloon keepers of
Sioux City to Infict bodily injury upon
an active agent of the prohibition cause,
and that it was not in it's inception
conspiracy to murder. How far this fact
will excuse the parties thereto in the
eyes of the law remains to be seen. In
the estimation of the public they will
be held responsible for the murder of
mir. Haadock, because Out OF their
deliberate conspiracy to mutilate
human being came the doath of another
human being. Had they not oonspired
to commit cowardly act there would
have been no tragedy. The parties to
the murder are in custody and justice
will take it's course.

The confession of Leavitt fixing upon
John Arensdorf the crime of the murder
OF Rev. Mr.. Haddock, at Sioux City
must be taken with sufficiently charita-
BILE grains of allowance. Mr.. Leavitt is
himself strongly suspected of the act he
charges upon Arensdorf and is therefore
in the position of one personally inter
ested in swearing the actual Grim upor
an accomplice. This is matter to be
sifted by the courts, attaching, of course
due weight to the testimony OF the party
who makes the confession.

Following the arrest of III. Il. Leavitt, |
at Chicago, for completely in the muir
der OF Rev. George O. Haddock, at Sioux
City, comes his confession, which is
given to the public. This confession
charges John Arensdorf, Sioux City
brewer, with being the murderer of MY.
Haddock, and Mr.. Leavitt gives his
testimony as an eye witness, SO it will
not be difficult matter to confirm or
disproye his testimony. The confession
of Leavitt, which is printed in full, leads
down to the actual crime through con-
spiracy (to which Mr.. Leavitt was
partly to whip Mr.. Walker, one of MIR.
Haddook's 3 associates in the prohibition
work. The saloon keepers association
of Sioux City had employed two men to
commit the assault upon Walker,
agreeing to pay them 500 for the job.
The names OF the sluggers are given as
King and Waldevring. The conspiracy
to infiot punishment upon Walker fail
ed, but it gept the parties thereto
| together and in condition to do mis-
chief if the opportunity presented itself.
| On the night of the third OF August
| they were watching the movements
of active prohibitionists. It was known
| that Haddock had been out IN the coun-
try in buggy and the party, consisting
of Levitt, Arensdorf, George Trieber,
Louis Plath, Fred Munchrath, Harry
Sherman and man called Henry, the
driver of brewery wagon, went to the
livery stable where Haddock was to leave
his. team. AscestaininR that he was
about to leave the stable preparations
were made to assault Haddock. One
member of the party, Munchrath, realiz-
ing shat an attack upon the reverend
gentleman was imminent, admonished
the siuggers mot to punch Haddock toe
hard-hit him in the face once or twice
and give him black eye. That will do
at we don't want to go any further thar
thst." The balance OF the murderout
story is given in Leayitt's own words
taken from his confession:

keeping discovery all to itself Here is
one of it's discoveries, which might posi-
bly, be classed as an invention:
A great deal of valuable newspaper
space is now being used to attempt to
convince the public that the democratic
convention which met in this city was
favorable to the division of Dakota. The
News desires to correct this wrong i'm
preston. The democratic party is now
one which deals in ofiices--not with
issues. The latter are but secondary
with them. There can be no doubt but
what majority of the delegates to the
territorial convention were favorable to
admission as whole, but there were too
many who understood Mr.. Days position
upon the division question, and who
also recognized in him the official dis
penser of political pap at the public
crib in Washington, and they prefer to
stultify themselves, their prin-
ciple, if they ever had any, and vote fol

vigorous and progressive statesman IN

John Ireland.
THE Tcxarkana Times having en-
deavored to hold Gov. Ireland respon-
sible for the protection views of a
newspaper iavoring him, the Houston
Post gave the Times sharp reproof, to
which the Times responds:
When we remember the Call is a
rabid protectionists and the organ OF
the governor at one and the same time
itloOks little funny you know.
On the same principle, If one OF
Senator Maxey's friends should hap
pen to be pumpkin-head, it would
necessarily follow that the senator
was very small potato.
The city council acted wisely in de-
clining to take steps to amend the city
charter so as to place the election OF
city officers below mayor with the
council instead of with the people as
now. The people are certainly COM
potent, and the change would embar-
rass, if not hinder, the election Of the
best material for aldermen, by making
choices for under positions an issue in
the election of aldermen. Then, the
proposed change is tendency toward
Capitalization, and, though ever so
slight should be promptly discouraged.
The Fort Gazette copies first and
last portions of the HERALD's COM
ment on its interviews with legisla-
tors on the senatorial question, as II
the portions clipped were all the ar
ticle. Itappears that the Gazette gar
bled the article, emitting the very:part
which seemed to cut it, that it might
the easier retort. The Gazette may have
journalistic rules of its own, but that
practice is certainly one to be discon-
unnamed ms unfair and closely akin to
Misrepresentation. So far as the Ga
ze.te's personal illusions are concernt d
and the animus which prompted the
expression, ihic'papcr does not care,
and does not regard the Gazette ms
