nal and Miscellaneous Matters
Logan Democracy is not going to sit down and
say amen to the Republican victory even
though the peace Offering made by Mr.. Ben
Rich was accepted by two or three Democrats
The Journal, after accusing Mr.. Rich of being
anything else, now states that with the eX-
ception of being off on political questions, he is
a fine gentleman, and his friends are many"
Consistency thou art jewel, but about as hard
to lind as honesty in Logan.
All is q iet.since the election, but little noise
and lew people on the streets. 1t is expected,
however, that something is going to drop before
all the newly-elected officers qualify.
CRIMINAL
Reuben Newbold, of Smithfeld, who was up
in Commissioner Fletcher's court on Tuesday,
charged with fornIcation, found bondsmen on
Wednesday.
This was an interesting case, as it was shown
that the defendant, Newbold, had not only in
duced Anna Nc Donald, of Mink Creek, to run
off with him, under promise of marriage, but
that they had occupied the same room and bed
in the City hotel, in Brigham, then went to
Honeyville, where he lett the girl, while he
he went to Eairvlew.
The girl went to h er home in Mink Creek, but
Newoold either through fear or a desire to
right the wrong as far as possible, went from
Fairv1ew to Mink Creek and got the girl to 60
to Franklin, where they endeavored to get a
justice to marry them.
The girls father had notified the Justice by
wire not to do so, so they went 10 Presbyte-
rian minister, Allen, who, knowing nothing Of
the affair married them, the girl claiming to be
eighteen years old when she is not yet four
teen. and the fellow claiming TO be twenty
three, when he is twsntv-siX. Parties N
Franklin who wished the matter investigated,
made compla Mt and the two were arrested, the
foregoing facts being brought out in the pre-
liminary examination.
On w Wednesday the police arrested E. Abra-
Eastern
tory, of Cincinnati on suspicion.
The marshal received a few days ago a card
from Dayton, Ohio giving description of man
wanted for embeZZlement which answers that
of Mr.. Abraham almost to dot. To your re-
porter who visited him at the Logan house, Mr..
Abraham stated that he could say nothing more
than that it was an outrage, and that the city
would pay him heavy damages before it was
through with the matter. Mr.. Abraham also
stated that he was member Of the Elk Lodge
No. %, knights of Pythias, of San Antoine, Tex.
and that he had wired his house to eX plain his
delay. He was still detained yesterday, await
ing the arrival of message from Dayton to the
marshal here.
