a BOLD los rHIEF.
Animal Recovered But Man Escapes
Through Audacity

Winfield, Oct. 12.-The horse stolen at
Arkansas City Monday and brought to
Winfield was sold to Wilson Lindley Of
this city and the first suspicion Mr. Lind
ley had to his title was when he read
the account of the theft.
The horse was sold to Mr.. Lindley by
a man who said his name was Hugh Wal
lace and Mr. Lindley paid him 80 in
money and gave a note for the balance
$3.50 MI Llndley went to the home OF
Mayor Albright, told him Of the circum-
stances and asked his aid in recovering
his money. The officers were at once no
titled and it was found that Wallace had
tried to dispose of the note around town
but it is thought he was unsuccessful.
All trace of him since seems to be lost.
Officer Kruger traced the thief to Tis-
dale, but lost all trace of him there He
must have come right back to Winfield
and this with his other actions showed
that he was either a mighty bold thief
or a new hand at the business.

IT Is a rash man who will make
predictions as to Tuesdays election.
With so many new questions at is
sue; with party lines all torn up,
and with Doodle on the Republican
side by the barrel, no man can tell
whether the people or the plutocrats
will prevail. But this much Is plain.
The people champion, the young
Nebraskan, Is coming strong and
steady and fast down the home
stretch, while the pampered Empire
entry of the trusts and combines, Is
track tired and wind broken.
Another thing ia plain. The back
ers of the first are more hopeful than
they have ever been before, and the
hackers Of the last are scared nearly
out of their skins. Another thing Is
tolerably sure. If the Democrats
can watch the boxes c,ose enough to
secure a free ballot and fair count,
all the bride money the trusts and
combines can pour into the election.
