Pertinent Press Comment.

Democracy has no candidate to
offer who stands so close to the
people as does the eminent American
who now occupies the White House :;
that partyis to all appearances quite
as hopelessly divided on the money
question as in 1896, and can find no
other and newer issue, that is really
worth the name, upon which to
unite; and as for bona fde leader,
1t has none as yet. The political
signs point to William Mckinley oil
Ohio as his own successor.
Progress and prosperity have at.

JOS. MAYER Is FREE.
GRAND JURY BRING NO INDICTMENT
AGAINT HIM.
BE SHOT IN SELF DEFENSE.
Mayer Returned Home Friday Evening
and is Given an Enthusiastic Re-
ception by His Friends-Never
Feared the Outcome.

Joseph Mayer, the milk dealer, living
in the town of Pleasant Prairie, who
was arrested in Chicago on the night
of December 81, charged with killing
Dennis Z. Riley, Northwestern Rail-
way detective, is free man, as the
Cook county grand jury set him at
liberty Friday evening.
The jury, in their action decided
that the Kenosha man was justified in
killing Riley and had shot his man
while defending his person against an
unlawful attack.
As soon as Mayer was set at liberty
he took the first train home and reach
ed Kenosha on the $50 train, and was
mea by a number of his friends and
perfect ovation. His friends had
been loyal to him during the days of
his trouble and were overjoyed to know
that he was now set at liberty by the
action of the law AS soon as possible
Mayer fastened to his home in Pleasant
Prairie, and his greeting from his aged
father and his wife was touching one.
Mayer had little or nothing to say in
regard to the killing of Riley, but
seems entirely satisfied with the action
of the grand jury. He was seen by a
representative of this paper at the Cook
county jail last Sunday and to him be
stated that he had no fear of the result
and that he would be free man before
the opening of the new year.
The evidence of witnesses before the
grand jury all corroborated the story
told by Mayer and all went to show
that he had only used his weapon after
he had been attacked by Riley.
