MARY ELLEN LEASE.

She Spoke at the Corn Palace This
Afternoon.
There was large audience of ladies
and a fair sprinkling OF men in compar-
ison out to hear Mary Ellen Lease Mon
day afternoon.
Mrs. Lease was introduced by Rev.
A. @. Stevens and at the outset she
tackled the administration on the war
question and according to her harangue
the war was failure, Mckinley and
Alger we're responsible for all the sick
ness, all the mismanagement, all the
inefficiency, all the idiocy, all the red
tape, and in fact everything that her
fertile brain could conjure she laid to
President Mckinley and Secretary AL
ger. People heard what they expected
to hear, q sort of wild harangue against
war, given, as a populist said to US, for
mere Political effect.
Mrs. Lease lost nothing of her repu-
tation as sensational and virulent
speaker. She entirely overlooked the
initiative and referendum and other
topics dearto the populist heart.
Populists generally were not we'll
satisfied with her effort and the ap-
plause she got originated from the
platform.

out again, and two men are now lying
in the county Jail awaiting an oppor-
tunity to defend themselves against
this charge. For several weeks two
men have been under suspicion that
they were endeavoring to get hold of
some property which did not belong to
them and they have been under the
close surveillance of the officers, with
the result that Harry Cleveland, who
has been employed by Jos. Garmong,
the iceman. and John Lynch are now
in Jail, they having been detected in
the act OF running off two COWS.

stealing some of his property. He no.

uty Tobin to accompany Mr.. Cook to
look after the matter. About 1880
O'Clock Tobin and Cook concealed
themselves in the stockyards and soon
they were rewarded by the appearance
of two men, provided with ropes,

just as they were going to lead it away

would do SO. The deputy gave him the
benefit of the doubt and they walked
along together. Lynch, however, proved
treacherous and at an opportune mo
ment broke away and ran. deputy
Tobin didn't have time to draw his
gun before the rascal was nearly OBJ
scured in the darkness, and although
he fired his revolver at the escaping
prisoner he was unable to bring down
his victim. Mr.. Cook landed his priso-
ner in the Jail, and that was all thas
could be done that night.
Sunday morning AL. Scott and Mr..
Nicholson started off south to take up
the trail of Lynch and along about noon
they overhauled him near Ben Schaub's
place in Prosper township, and brought
him back to this city and placed him in
Jail. 1t is pretty we'll understood that
there was some local people connected
with this matter which the officers have
not lost lost sight of, and the investi-
cation will be further pursued.
The examination of the prisoners will
be deferred until next Saturday or
Monday by request of Attorney Goody-
koontz, who has been engaged to de-
fend them.

TWO BURGLARIEs THURSDAY

Two Houses We're Entered And a Sum of
Money Taken From One.
Mitchell was visited by burglars
last Thursday mig hit and two houses were
broken into Entrance was effected in
G. G. Ratahb burns residence, on west
Third street, by removing the screen
from the window in the front part of
the house. The window had been left
about half way up and it was an easy
matter to gain an entrance. The fell
low got into the parlor and took sur
vey of the rooms by aid of the lighted
lamp in one of the rooms. On retiring
Mr.. Rathbun hung his coat and vest on
the door of lis bed room, and Friday
morning they were found lying on the
front porch. A pocket book, containing
S47 in bills, three checks for small
amounts and some papers, was taken
from the vest and the money was
appropriated while the balance of the
contents were scattered on the porch.
Mr.. Rathbun also found his gold watch
lying on the porch. Before leaving
the house the party blew out the lamp.
The burglary took place long after
midnight, and none of the family was
awakened by the night prowler. It
was evident the fellow wanted nothing
but cash, and thus avoid leaving any
clue whereby he could be detected.
Mr.. Rathbun states that in his trou.
sers lying on the chair near the door
was 800, which the burglar overlooked,
and for which Mr.. Rathbun was indeed
grateful.
G. G. Deans house, block farthe,
west, was also entered, admission being
gained by tearing the screen from ths
kitchen window. The fellow passed
through two or three rooms before
reaching the bedroom, where a, lamI
was burning. This was extinguisheG
and this morning Mr.. and Mrs. DEAN
clothes were also found on the porch
Mr.. Deans trousers having been riflet
of a small amount of money. In neithe
house was anything else disturbed
The burglar had to pass within tw'
feet of Mr.. Deans bed and he can't un
derstand how it was that he didn't hea
him.
Two men, strangers, were arrested b.
Sheriff Cook on suspicion Frida.
but nothing could be proved agains
them. There seems to be no clue t
work on.
| There are E number of burglaries Q
this same kind being perpetrated i
several parts of the state, the last on
being at Redfield' this week, when o. c
Berg's house was broken into and s20
in money taken. 1t is evident this
the same gang working around thi
way.

Wood Wing of Democracy.

Col. Abraham Boynton, F. M. Ham
mer, M. Jaquemai and about q seven
other democrats met in the sheriff's
Office of the court house Saturday
in response to the call OF John D. Wood
for mass convention. Mr.. Boynton
was named rs chairman and NJ. Jaque
mai as secretary. A committee was
appointed to confer with like commit
tee from the populist convention, ae
follows: Ed. Leehan, Chas. Obland and
James Lyons. Mr.. Leehan appeared
later in the populist convention and
asked it to endorse Mr.. Foley's candi
dacy for clerk of courts.
After the adjournment OF the populis'
convention the Wood democracy named
the same identical ticket as that of the
populists and adjourned.

Popu,,st Cen raj Committee.

During pause in the populist con-
ven'iou Saturday the county central
committee was named for the ensuing
two years. For the benefit OF our many
populist readers the names of the COM
mittee are published as follows:
First Wsrd-Oscar Kanouff.
Second Ward-H. J. Mohr.
Third Ward-A. r. EDDY.
Fourth Ward IS. F. Goody ykoontz.
Union-Arthur Taylor.
Tobin-James Schoenfelder.
Baker-Carl Knappe.
Lisbon-Gilbert Stevens.
Rome-A. J. Buss.
Perry-A. Bose.
Prosper-J. E. French.
Badger-J. E. Watkins.
Mt. Vernon--C. W. Jones.
Blendon-Joh ohm Anthem.
Beulah-Jos. Emmons.
West Side MITCHELL. B. Hall.
At the close of the populist conven-
tion Saturday the central committee
met to elect chairman. John Colvin
was nominated for chairman, which was
seconded and he was duly elected. Mr..
Colvin's election for that place was not
at all suitable to the machine which
had been in evidence during the con-
yention. S. F.. Goodykootz stated to the
committee that much care should be ex.
ercised in selecting achairman as heavy
duties were involved in that position
and a man was needed who would look
after financial matters properly and
endeavor to secure the election of the
ticket. Frank b. Winsor, in accord.
ance with that statement, nominated
| S. F. Goodykootz for chairman, and
despite the fact that Mr.. Colvin had
| already been elected chairman the com
mittee likewise elected Mr.. Goody
koontz for the same position. We have
not learned that Mr.. Colvin has resign
ed his election and We understand tha
Mr.. Goodykoontz is fully aware that h,
is chairmrn-of the populist committee
Whichever way the matter goes it il
immaterial to THE REPUBLICAN, bu
it looks like very queer proceeding
to name one man, then knock him ou
and elect another. It is evidently tn,
policy Of the populist machine to plac'
Mr.. Colvin where he will not be harm
full to the interests that are now be
ing manipulated with great cunning TO
the future.
