WHO pRoFIrED BY the srEAL'

AS soon as copy could be fur
nished and be put in type a hand
bill was struck charging the theft
to Democrats, and these bills were
handed around to persons whom
they thought could be Influenced,
and the claim is the Republican
party pro6ted by this steal al least
100 votes in the county. II this
be true it is evident the Republi-
cans had lost the county. and II
they had it lost did they not know
it, and did they not know the
stealing Of ballot books would
have such an influence to benefit
their party if charged to the Dem
ocrats as party2 Itnot, why the
bills charging the theft to Demo
Gratis when, as a matter Of fact,
they did not know who did it? II
they know it is their duty to see
that the parties are arrested. If
Democrats did it, why did Demo

We do not believe this theft is
the result Of a Democratic con

crime, but being Democrat is no
bar to the penitentiary. Neither
do we believe reputable Mont

AN INFAMOUS CRIME.

We have neither patience nor
mercy for the man or men who
will steal, and to take a ballot
book is thievery just the same as
breaking into barn and taking a
horse, and it is the duty of the
proper authorities to see that dill
ligent search be made and that the
criminal or criminals be punished
to the full extent Of the law.

UNLIKE REPUBLICANS.

There were no distractions
thrown in the way preventing dill
ligent search, and it was common
dable in Republicans TO offer a
81 900 reward and none the less
commendable in the Democrats to
offer S, 900 reward for the arrest
and conviction Of the guilty par
ties; and as soon as possible Judge
Hazelrigg, Democrat, called the
Fiscal Court together, and that
court, with Democratic majority,
offered an additional reward Of
500 The aggregate reward now
stands for 50, 100, and Democrats
will leave no stone unturned to
find the guilty parties.

ward; but man and letters both had es-
capped his grasp; and when he pulled
up, blown and exhausted after fruitless
chase, he was brought to his senses by
the sight of his own men falling in ''for
business" and he had to scamper for
his sword and join them.
That was miserable evening. Mar
garet Garrison was the only mem Der of
the household who seemed to have her
wits about her and her nerves under
control, for Frank, her liege lord, had
his duty elsewhere. and not until hours
later trotted slowly home. Margaret

fallen in her estimation at being so
easily tossed aside. A warning finger
was laid upon her lip. mot one word
of what has happened while he is here"
she muttered; and nod of her fluffy
head toward the perturbed colonel told
plainly that the chief of the household
really had no place in the family coun-
ellis. To the sisters that ALARM was
blessing in disguise. 1t was all sut1i-
cient to account for Nita's prostration.
To the rash and reckless lad. who.
claiming to be an orderly with letter
from the colonel, had been passed by
the gate guard to the open stairway, it
afforded ample cover for escape, when,
alarmed by Nita's cry, Gray and the
corporal came springing to her aid. To
Gray himself it gave only few minutes
forgetfulness of his trouble, for, smart
ing under the sting of woman's only
half-hidden disdain, he would have well
coined with almost savage Joy some
fierce battle with skillful foe, some
scene in which he could compel her re-
spect and admiration. He was still
smarting and stung when at last that
opportunity came.
Long will Manila remember the
night! 1t followed close upon the heels
of warnings that for weeks held every
officer and man to his post of duty.
Day after day the strain increased.
The insurgents. crowding upon our out
posts in front of Santa Mesa on the
north and of Santa Ana on the south
side of the Pasig, had heaped insult and
threats upon our silent sentries. COM

soon to come and replace those volun-
teers, said the wiseacre Of his cabinet,
therefore strike now before the trained
and disciplined troops arrive and sweep
these big Doors into the sea. And on
the still, starlit night, sooner. perhaps
than his confederates within the walls
intended, the rebel leader struck, and,
long before the dawn Of the lovely
Sunday morn that followed, the fire
flashed from 10000 rifles in big semi

quilez and carromattas even the street
carswere instantly seized by the sol
diery scattered all over town, and util-
lied to take them tearing back to join
their regiments. In five minutes the
business streets downtown were de-
serted. Chinese covered within their
crowded huts. The natives, men and
women, either hid within the shelter of
their homes or fled to the sanctuary of
the many churches. All over the great
city the alarm spread like wildfre. The
battaliors formed under arms, those
nearest the outer lines being marched
at once to their positions in support,
those nearer the walled city waiting for
orders. Foreign residents took mat
tiers more coolly than did the Asiatic;
German phlegm, English impassiveness
and Yankee devil-may-care-ishness pre-
venting panic. But those who had
families and owned or could hire car
riages and launches were not slow in
seeking for their households the refuge
of the fleet of transports lying placidly
at anchor in the bay, where Dewey's
bluejackets shifted their quids, went
coolly to their stations and, grouped
about their guns, quietly awaited fur
ther developments. In an agony of
fear Col. Frost had hidden his driver to
lash the ponies to gallop and go like
the wind to Malate; but the appearance
of the long ranks of sturdy infantry
resting on their arms and beginning to
look bored, measurably reassured him
before he reached his home. Once
there, however, the sight of Nita, cling
ing hysterically to her sister and moan
ing on her bed, was sufficient to deter
mine his first move, which was to wire
for his launch to come around to the
bay shore and take them off to the fleet.
The next was to send and ask for an Of
ficer and 20 men from the Quartet, on
receiving which message the major
commanding, standing on the dusty
roadway in front of his men, grinned
under his grizzled mustache and said:
''Frost's got 'em again. Here. Gray.
you go over and tell him to keep his hair
on, that it's nothing but fake alarm" "
And Gray, glad enough of the chance to
go again into the presence of the wom-
an who so fascinated him, sped on his
mission. He was in a fury over his re-
cent humiliation in her very sight-he.
a commissioned officer. tossed aside

Cape Nome Despotism.

Information from reliable
source has been obtained by the
Press, showing condition Of affairs
existing at Cape Nome worse than
that imposed on citizen or subject
by the most despotic ruler on earth.
Charges are made, and can be prov
en-, that high government officials
at Washington have used govern
ment transports for the purpose of
shipping banking outfits and sup
plies to Nome free of charge for
companies in which they are the
principal owners. 1t is also true
that when the valuable claim is
opened up some person employed
by these companies jumps the claim,
the court IS appealed to, receiver
is appointed, and the original owner
is deprived of his property, while
the receiver goes ahead and works
it in the interest of the company he
represents. The officers of the
court are parties to the frauds, and
whenever force Is necessary to rob
the rightful owner of his claim the
soldiers are used and he is driven
from his property at the point of
the bayonet. The courts and the
troops are beng unlawfully used at
Nome in the interest of these gov
eminent officers, and citizens are
being deprived of their property by
the most unjust arbitrary power.
These statements are confirmed by
persons who have returned from the
far north, and letters from reliable
citizens of this vicinity. Such out
RACES are but one form of militar-
ism, and the people of Nome are e1-
perlencing a condition of affairs
that always follow the despotic rule
of INSCRIPTIONS officials whose
greed for gain leads them to commit
crime against the rights of the peo-
pie in the name of government.
These outrages should be investigat-
ed 10y congress, and undoubtedly
will be when that body convenes.-
