months ago and confessed the crime
to the Utah officers. has gone on the
stand and denied that he ever made

arrested here for stealing chickens and
then confessed TO a fellow prisoner that
he murdered Duffey in Sacramento
while rObbing d house The same ad-
mission he later made TO Sheriff Nay
Tor, who is now in Sacramento as a
witness in the case. Wardrip. after
being taken 10 California, admitted his
guilt in the lower court by pleading
guilty, and insisted upon not having
the plea changed.
But now il seems he doesn't want to
die, and when he was placed on the
stand a few days ago he swoTe that
he never confessed. and that he was in

The affair will likely result in the
purchase of couple of bloodhounds,

wages for the patrolmen, as a move

for some time, and the shooting of Of

Ezra Farr is a son of Lorin Farr the
first and for twenty years the only
mayor of Ogden. He was appointed by
Mayor Browning TO position on the

patrolmen who escaped the clean sweep
inaugurated by the Republican admin

I'VE rejoice that the firm, but en-
lightened policy pursued in the Philip
pines has secured peace in the islands,
and that the work of education, ciVIl1-

begun.

policy in the Philippines should now
cease and the beneficient plans of the

and cordial support of all our people
I'VE are proud of the high standard
of good conduct maintained by MEM

in the army while executing our

the Republican party in giving protec-
ton to home Industries, and point for
its ample Vindication TO the eXtraor-
binary rapidity with which our national
resources have been developed and our
Industrial and financial independence
secured.
Favor Changes of Tariff.
I'VE favor such changes in the tariff
from time to time as become advisable
through the progress of our industries
and their changing relations TO the
commerce of the world. We endorse
the policy of reciprocity as the natural
complement of protection. and urge its
development as necessary to the real
iZation of our highest commercial pos

I'VE assert the sovereignty of the
people over all corporations and aggre-
cations of capital and the right resid-

abuse of the power which great combi-
nations of capital WELD.
I'VE cordially endorse the position of
President Roosevelt in appealing to the
courts to secure regulations that Will
control great combinations of capital
that prevent competition and control
the industries of the people without
legal sanction or public approval. We
favor such amendment to the inter
state commerce act as will more fully
carry out it's prohibition of discrimina-

be required to prevent their affording
shelter to monopoly.

STORY is FAR FROM THE TRUTH
F~uuionists Make ThemseIves Ridicu-
Ious in Talking About Judge


O'NEILL, Neb., Sept. 23.-(Special.)-The
fusionists OF this district, having become
alarmed over having nominated such a
feeble old man as General Barry for con-
gress, have been lately filling the fusion
press with stories that Judge Kinkaid Is
also old and feeble. These stories are
amusing to the o'Neill people, who know
Judge Kinkaid to be In the prime OF his
life. During the judges many years resi-
dence in O'Neill he has never been known
to miss a days work on account OF sick
ness and no matter what the weather he al
ways takes a walk Of from three to FIVE
miles every day, and besides the judge is
one OF the disciples Of the Swoboda exer-
else, and is considered one Of the strong
est and most active athletes in this part Of
the state. 1t will be remembered also that
Judge Kinkaid visited Alaska last summer,
at which time he walked over 500 miles in
the wilds OF Alaska.
Judge Kinkaid Is making a telling and
effective campaign in the district and the
people OF NELL feel very confident Of
his election by a good safe majority.

Large Attendance from Surrounding
portions of state on Opening
Day.

SIDNEY, Neb., Sept. 23.-tspecial Tele-
gram.)-Thls city is all aslow with excite
ment. It being opening day for the street
fair and carnival. The people throughout
the city have deliberately decorated their
homes with flags and bunting and the
town is filled with strangers. The weather
is propitious and could not have been
manufactured to order to better suit the
occasion. The exhibits are even beyond
expectations. Today there were two bal
loon ascensions and parachute drop by
Prof. and Nine. Broadwick. The North
Platte brass band and a company OF ANA
teur performers open tonight at the Grand
opera house for the entire week. The Kim
ball brass band will make the streets echo
with its sweetest melodies and the mill
tary band from Fort Russell. Wyo., will
be on deck Wednesday to discourse pa
triotic music for the multitude. Killian
and Church, the promoters. promise a few
more attractions for the last three days
Of the carnival. The city has amply pro-
vided for the many thousands who will
visit this enterprising place during the
fair. Large delegations from towns within
200 miles have agreed to be here and the
railroads have made liberal concessions In
rates to assist the project.
