A H0LD-UP KILLED
DEMANDED THAT PACKAGE OF
MONEY BE LEFT At A
GIVEN POINT.
He Appeared Promptly on Time, Grab
bed the Package and Was Making
or When He Was Shot by Member
Of sheriff's Posse-Proved to Be
Prominent Young Man.

Beatrice, Neb., March 1S.-P. T.
Lewellen, one of the leading business
mel of Filley, received a letter Satur-
day evening, directing him to place
$3.50 in a package and put the parcel in
the side room of the v%estibule of the
Methodist church promptly at 7:45
Sunday night. The writer said among
other things that If Lewellen failed to
obey orders the writer would burn his
store and stock. which was valued at
SIS. 600, and that he would also poison
the stock upon his farm.
The receipt of the letter was a ter
rife blow to Lewellen, who is a highly
respected citizen. Sheriff Waddington
was notified of the affair and he at
once gave instructions detailing the
procedure to take to capture the writ
or.
Arrangements were made and at the
exact time the package Of money was
deposited as the letter directed and
four brave men who had been selected
watched the coming of the man who
was suddenly to become the target for
their firearms, with which they were
amply provided.
A few minutes before 8 O'Clock the
watchers spied a man approaching the
church entrance alone. He opened the
church door and grabbed the package.
Although he vas called upon to stop,
he made a break for liberty, but did not
get far. A shot fired by Frank Shad-
ley brought him to the ground and he
was captured. He rapidly succumbed
to his wound. Sheriff Waddington
raj notified by telephone and left at
once for the scene, but the man was
dead before he arrived.
The dead man proved to be Willard
Smith, a prominent young man, about
20 years Of age, who resided with his
parents a mile and a half from Flley.
and who has always borne u high. rep
u~tation, as has his people. No motive
can be given for the hold-up, as the
young nan was in no way restricted
in financial affairs.
Coroner Valdez has gone to Filley
to hold an inquest. It Is said that Mr..
Shadley did not intend to shoot to kill,
but in the dark miscalculated his tar
get.

around the world. The trip has in
duced in him an exalted idea Of Rud-

times from the deck OF a tramp steam

like reproduces the phenomenon per-
fectly-the utter ~suddenness of it, as
II it leaped at you from ambush. 1t Is
even truer OF the sunset. The night

Candidate Stearns' Anti-Boodle
Campaign.


Justus Stearns, many times n mill
lionaire. is out after Governor Bliss
scalp and incidentally 10 secure the
governorship for himself. And the
funny part Of the program is his an
nouncement that Doodle campaigns are
utterly bad. IL will be recalled that
Mr.. SteaTns wanted this place two
years ago. At that time he tapped his
barrel &C both ends. IL was claimed by
those best qualified 10 know that he
spent over $4,000 In one county alone.
and that in all probability 100000 OF
the contents Of his barrel were scatter
ed broadcast over the state 10 secure
delegates for Stearns.
And now he has opened new cam.
paign and raises an anti-boodle cry.
IL has now become political corruption
To use money 20 secure Bliss or Stearns
delegates. But IL seems 10 be a re-
maTkable fact that many politicians
throughout the state who invariably
make hay while the political sun shines
have suddenly become active in the in
terests of Mr.. Stearns. These are
hurrying up and down the state, hold
ing meetings, and preparing TO capture
delegations. And Stearns leads us TO
utlltNt Nildl dll llllh huuutll upllhlllk -
a patriotic and spontaneous movement
on the part of these politicians. They
don't want any boodle-Ohl no. They
are after Stearns in the interest of the
dear people.
And as a part Of the program Stearns
is out with a big bluff asking Bliss and
his friends 20 call special session of
the legislature together 10 pass pri-
mary election law and claiming that
Stearns will put mp half the cash 10
pay the salaries of the members of the
Legislature, etc.
This, of course, would be a snap for
the members, but we do not think that
the people of the state of Michigan are
prepared 20 have n millionaire or two
millionaircs opening a separate barrel
for their representatives and senators IN
order 20 make grand stand play for
votes. Bliss has declined 90 enter into
any such an arrangement. In this he
shows the good common sense and
judgment for which he is noted.
Stearns cannot run an anti-boOdle cam
paign by opening his barrel In that
way. The administration OF Governor
Bliss has been conservative, free from
corruption and scandal of any sort, and
he is Justly entitled 10 the second term
given his predecessors.
