We take this opportunity to
intro luce to our readers our new
States Attorney, Jas. I. McCul-
loch. Mr.. McCulloch has scored
great victory for u county in
securing the conviction of the
horse thieves Arthur Miller, John
Hammic and George German at
the recent term of court held in
the city. More SO in the con-
viction of HamHnic who is All old
offender. and has always been able,
through his shrewdness and wiley
lawyer, NJ. I. O'Connor, to escape
conviction by the courts. But at
Washburn. He and his able coun-
sci met their Water Loo
The case of State VS. German
was on trial four days during
which time a hard battle was
taught Oh either side and much
legal talent displayed. When the
case rested for the state and our
able states attorney had made his
final a1drss to the jury, the jury
found the testimony submitted by
the state adequate to bring in a
verdict of guilty after being out
one hour. This was a surprise to
Michel T., as it was to the citizens
ut Mclean county, who watched
the trial with intense interest. hav-
ing their future welfare at stake.
Michel T.. had some hopes of saw
ing Hammic which were. soon
fusterated by the severe cross ex-
aminations by the states attorney,
and Michel L. seeing this, threw
up his case like a little man-his
tricks not working i'll Washburn.
The, conviction of these two
t%ransgressors will probably break
up the gang of horse thieves who
have been operating in this county
for some time--as it is understood
several members of the-gang have
taken to the woods since the trial.
1t may De assured if their should
be other members of the gang
brought up for trial they will
meet the same fate their ucces
sors did in the hands of our States
Attorney, JAS. Z. McCulloch.
