A CENTER SHOT.
Fresno Expositor. I

Some time ago san Francisco paper
had good deal TO say about the RECORD

expense to the railroad people. The
RECoRD-U UNION replied challenging that
paper to showing of its books to dem
onstrate which paper had been more
costly to the railroad, the RECORD UNION
or one or two certain newspapers in San
Francisco, which also are known to have
Int other big corporations very heavily
at different times, and repeatedly. And
the RECORD UNION made a center shot
when 1t declared that it had never en-
tered into agreements TO take large sums
OF money contingent on the judgments
that were to be rendered in disputed
probate cases involving millions of dol
lars. intimating very strongly that some
paper there had banked heavily on the
decisions made by the courts of San
Francisco. Some of the metropolitan
press is venal and rotten. 1t doesn't am

Old Kentucky women sustained them
selves IN their time-honored ideas of
what men should be when they took the
field against Breckenridge. He deserved
bis defeat. He will probably 90 on the
stage now, and that will probably satisfy
his craving ambition. Desha Breckin-
ridge deserves credit for sticking to his
father, but if he had only turned his
memory back little the thought of his

have caused him TO make himself less
ridiculous about the advancement of his
father to public places.
THE INDEPENDENT VOTER.

Unless all signs are at fault there will be
a phenomenal amount OF independent
voting at the coming election. The multi

symptom Of the spirit abroad among the
voters. Candidates are going to be Judged

nees in this election. Heretofore an inde-
| pendent candidate has been rare excep-
ton, but there will be candidates proba-
bly, in half the counties OF the State. Un-
der the new ballot law there is no such
thing as an average party strength for
| local candidates, nor for State candidates
either, for that matter. There never was
time when individual preference was
such governing factor in the choice OF
public officials, or when party nomina-
tions weighed so lightly on the average
voter.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

The chief argument against woman suf-

want the ballot. This, If true settles the
question IN advance, as nobody is dis

not wanted. This argument may be
founded on sufficient basis or it may be
supposition simply. There has been no
practical effort to determine the senti-

FOR ENLIGHTENMENT.
FRED THUR, A CLERK, ARRESTED
HERE YESTERDAY.
The Prisoner viii BE Taken Bncl1 to
MissOuri-Mrs. Bleak Makes An
swer to Her Husbands fIalnt.

Fred THUR, for the past three weeks
an employee of Auerbach Bros, was
arrested yesterday morning by Detec-
tive E.. A. Franks, on the charge of
embezzlement, said to have been COM
nitted while he was in the employ of
the Adler-Toldman Commission COM
pany, which has houses at Maiden and
Kennett, Missouri. The young man
was given into the custody of Sheriff
Mcqueen and will be held at the county
jail until the arrival of a Missouri Of
ficer with the necessary requisition
papers.
Nearly two months ago the detective
received instructions to be on the look
out for Titur and arrest him If found.
Sheriff Mcqueen also received tele-
graphic warrant of arrest from City
Marshal Bledso of Maiden and since
that time the officials have been on
the watch for the young man. The
particulars of the affair as furnished
by the documents received in this city
were as follows: Titur and friend
named Charles F. Baumblatt We're in
the employ OF the Missouri company
named and often were given control
of considerable sums of money with
which to purchase flrs. Several
months ago both disappeared from the
state and at the same time between
$4,000 and $4,000 of the company's
money also disappeared. The young
men came to Utah and from here
Baumblatt very recently departed for
Texas while THUR secured employment
Their whereabouts have just been dis
covered and as a result THUR is in
custody and his alleged partner in
crime is Whirling along on his journey
to the Lone Star state.
When interviewed yesterday after
noon THUR claimed to have no knowl-
edge of the crime with which he is
charged and declares that he can easily
clear himself upon his return to Mis-
souri, He is not now SO sure of Baum
blatt. however, and seems half in
clined to believe that his present
trouble is due to his former companion.
Later-Last night Sheriff Mcqueen
received a dispatch from Marshal
Bledso instructing him to release THUR.
A letter containing full particulars is
| following. The young man was at once
released. 1t was evidently gigantic
mistake.
