HIS last night from Ohio, where he had
gone after 6. B. Williams wanted for com
plieity with murderer Fitzslmmons in the rob-
berry of John Schmidts jewelry store at Home
stead Mr.. Schmidt accompanied Beltzhoover,
who was armed with requisiton fromG Governor

of Ohio. Williams attorney got out writ of
habeas corpus and notwithstanding the Gov
ernor's warrant and MIR. Schmidt's testimony
as to the robbery, and Williams own acknowl-
edgment as to his identity, the Judge decided
that the detective had not produced evidence
to show that Williams had been in Homestead
on the day Of the robbery nor that he was
fugitive from justice. and for that reason
ordered Williams discharge.
Detective Beltzhoover was totally unprepared
for such decision, as it has not been customary

further than to prove the identity of the pris-
oner. Beltzhoover will Immediately take other

THIBODAUX BRIDGE

Thirty six years ago, the difficulty
and Inconvenience of crossing Bayou
Lafourche OF an ordinary Ferry, with
the impracticability and danger atten-
ding the passage of loaded wagons,
demanded that a bridge should be
erected across the said bayou.
In 1854 the Town Council ''appoint-
ed Louis Bush, Patrick HI. Gary, and
Cleophas Gautreau, a committee to
confer with a committee to be named
by the Police jury in regard to obtain
ing a charter to build a suitable bridge
over bayou Lafourche within the limits
of the Town of Thibodauy."
The conference was held and the
consent of the Police Jury was accord
ed the Town of Thlbodaux to apply to
the legislature for a charter. Appli-
cation having been duly made the leg
islature passed the following act.

In New Hampshire the democrats
had Il plurality of votes at tie last cleo
ton but by a law that has neither JUS
tice nor common sense in it, concocted
expressly to retain the Republicans in
power, when in a minority the Repub-
lican Governor is seated, and a Repub-
lican United States Senator will be
elected to succeed long winded Blair.
In Connecticut the Democratic car
didate had a complete majority of all
the votes cast for Governor, and yet
the present governor denies his right
to succeed him, and proposes to MAIN
tain his seat.
In Nebraska there is no doubt that
Boyd the Democratic candidate for
governor was elected yet the Republic
can governor still refuses to surrender
the office, and these men never tire of
bleating about honest elections and
fair counts. They do not hesitate to
openly steal any Office from President
down to a sixth ward constable and
their hands are ever uplifted with their
pions eyes always looking heaveuward,
when they speak about impurity of
elections. Rascalitv after the ballot
suits them better than wrong at the
polls.

Whether the Republicans conspira-
tors will yet get the Force bill through
Congress is a matter of doubt.
Present appearances indicate that
the measure will not be passed.
There are many other measures to
be brought before Congress that are of
more importance, so that it is thought
that enough Republicans, aided by the
Democratic vote, will be able to sue
cessfully antagonist the Force bill and
bring up one of those measures for dis
cussion and action. There are only
about 40 working days remaining,
which, a proper discussion of more i'm
portant measures will occupy, leaving
no time to work that miserable bill
through the senate.
