cause they We're actively engaged in the
matters they undertook, whereas those
who assailed them and showed up their
failures had nothing to but to watch
them and tell how they ought to have
acted.
But Tapp is a frank man. He is re-
ported admitting that before he be-
came a candidate for Office he thought the
republic was all right; that it was
stronger and greater and more secure
than ever before; that there was more
patriotism and good feeling; that there
were firmer ties of brotherhood and
manhood, and he had an idea that those
who thought otherwise had dyspepsia
and liver complaint and jaundice and
ricketts, and delirium tremens. But now
since he has become a candidate all is
changed. He has seen the ghost and
he believes the republic is in danger, and
he fears an empire will be established at
once, even before November.
He says his friend Bob Piatt, who Is
a candidate for probate judge, agrees
with him; but he admits the ghost Piatt
has seen is little bit of a one, and
Piatt does not really appreciate the aw-
ful calamity that is impending, simply
because the office he is after is so snail

HIS TRIAL IS TODAY
McCOy Up for Alleged Stealing Of
IenNpl.s, kkuIpn

The case of Charles Mccoy, who was
arrested on the charge of stealing Boy
er's mules in this city some weeks ago,
will come up in the city court today at
o'clock. Mccoy was brought back to
this county few days ago by Sheriff
Simmons, and since that time the officers
have been securing the evidence against
him.
The mules were stolen, together with a
wagon and harness, from the south part
of town and were taken to wellington.
At that place Mccoy entered a house
and secured some clothing. it is alleged.
After going into the territory he attempt
ed to trade the mules and wagon for an
old team of horses and wagon. The
trade was finally made, but the man who
traded became suspicious and demanded
that Mccoy trade back, which he did.
The man, not satisfied that everything
was right, notified the officers at Wood
ward, and there the man was found.
The evidence seems to be very conclus-
i've in regard to the alleged stealing and
the case will be closely prosecuted.

President Mckinley. You can hear his
praises from everyone. You can find at
tacks on him in Democratic papers but
they are not repeated in conversation by
Democrats. chiefly because the attacks
are so f1imsy. Every citizen seems to IN

by the determination to be just. 1 saw
