LIEUT.. A. ROHAN RECOGNIZES HIM

Chicago Detective Furnishes Testimony
Before the Grand Jury, Which Returns
An Indictment for Assault With Intent
to KnI-Member of One of Most Danger
Gus Gangs In the Country.
The mysterious crook wounded in a
fight with Policeman William Lee, of
Moline, has been identified by Andrew
Rohan, lieutenant of Chicago detec-
tives, as Julius Linn bach, noted
cracksman. Lieut.. Rohan testified
today before the grand Jury, which
returned a verdict against Limbach
for assault with intent to kill. 1t is
also probable that there will be in
dictments against him for carrying
concealed weapons and for being in
possession of burglar tools.
Rohan recognized the prisoner at
first glance as Limbach. The latter
admitted that the authorities had him
right. He implored them not to tell
his relatives. but who they are or
where they reside he refuses to say
Limbach has two bullets in his body.
His condition is still serious. He will
probably be removed from the Moline
station to the county Jail this after
noon.
The Chicago police had suspected
that Waiter Lawton, who died from
injuries received in attempting to
hold up the cashier of the Palatine
bank, would turn out to be Linn bach.
The creditor establishing the identity
of the Moline prisoner is due to the
unceasing efforts of Chief Ed Kittil-
en-.
Serves Time In Wisconsin.
Lieut.. ROhan states that Linn bach
is about 20 years of age and finely
educated. He is a mem Der of one of
the most dangerous gangs of post
Office robbers and safe-crackers in the
United States. Rohan identified Linn
bach several years ago at FOn du Lac,
Wis, where he was convicted and
sentenced to the penitentiary for rob-
bling postoffice.

Though the Heavens Fall.

At the last term of court in Lafay-
cite parish Judge Deballlon fined q
number of saloon keepers 5000 or
nine months Imprisonment for viola
ting the Sunday law. This action has
well nigh paralyzed the saloon keep
ers, and thrown the editor Of Facts
and Fancy, a sprightly New Orleans
weekly into a fit of terror, and he
raids LASTLY at our righteous judge.
We do not believe Judge Debaillon is
personally, an advocate of the Sunday
law, at least his political enemies do
not charge him with it. He found it
on the statute book, just as he did
the law against ~cowstealing and he
gave the saloon men fair warning that
he meant to execute it fearlessly. Ii
they conscientiously believe the right
to sell whisky on Sunday is the con-
centrated acme of liberty and the
pursuit of happiness guaranteed I'M
der the Federal Constitution then no
doubt they will agree with the New
Orleans editor when he censures
Judge Debaillon for doing his duty.
In closing the editor says: "We
ought to teach the men we place in
authority that they are but placed il
positions to voice the wishes Of theil
. sovereign, and their sovereign is the
people. Search the annals of histors
and you will find that tyranny inva-
riably sucumbs to the wishes Of the
people. Such names as Reinzi,
William Tell, John HamTden, La
fayette, Washington, Charlotte, Cor
day, and those who brought monar-
chy, in France, to the dust, should
be sufficient reminders to deter men
like Judge Debaillon from abusing
powers that had been entrusted to
them by their masters

FOR AMERICAN PRINCIPLES.

Now that an election is at hand,
it is to be hoped that people Of
Honolulu will accept the oppor-
tunity offered for starting in upon
the broad American political
lines. The day is at hand for the
formation of Republican organ
iz.tion and the election of man
who accepts Republican principles
to the Senate of Hawaii. The
opportunity is offered for
citizens of the territory to de-
clare themselves on American
principles, cast aside the past and
stand upon the broad and liberal
Footing which American law, Am
erican custom and American poll
tics gives. The q lestion of the
futur, should he who is willing to
stand by broad American party
principles aud accept the
verdict of the people, not who is
going 10 win. LIT the citizens OF
Honolulu declare their principles
and be held to those principles
aud let those who are peerine
around the corners, after the style
of the official organ, to see which
way the cat is going to jump, be
placed in their true political light
Let The Re Jublicans be prompt in

hon st American manhood upor
