NAIL CARRIER IS ARRESTED
One Of the Oldest Men in Service at South
Omaha in Trouble.
SUSPECTED OF HAVING RlFLED MAILS
John G. GammiI said TO Have Beeu
Discovered by inspectors with
Contents of Pouch Emptied
on Floor.

John c. Gammill, who for years carried
mail route No. 1 in South Omaha and who
was one Of the Oldest carriers in that
service. was arrested Saturday afternoon
by Oficer Cushing after an Investigation
into the methods which had been employed
by Gammill, Il is said, in the delivery OF
the mails in his charge had been quietly
made by inspectors of the p%ostofhce de-
partment.
For some tine past, Il is said, Gammill
has been under suspicion for the disap-
pearance OF certain mail matter which II
was known had been consigned to his
route. Yesterday afternoon the postmas-
ter Of South Omaha secured, it is alleged,
sufficient evidence to warrant the arrest
Of Gammill, and Inspectors Swift and Sin
clair Of this city we're given the case.
The report which was sent to the United
States district attorneys office was to the
| effect that Gammill had been discovered
with the contents Of his mail pouch emp
tied upon the floor Of his room. Informa-
tion from the district attorneys Office
verihes the report that the inspectors
took Gammill into custody.
Brought TO Omaha.
Shortly after the carriers arrest by
oficer Cushing Of South Omaha the pris-
oner was taken to the city Jail, where he
was temporarily detained. Later he is
said to have been brought to Omaha. From
the district attorneys ONCE 1t was learned
last night that Gammlll would be detained
until Monday morning, when a warrant
would be issued for his arrest. 1t is un-
derstood that the prisoner is being closely
watched by government inspectors, who
are also at work gathering evidence against
the carrier. While no specific charge has
been made against Gammill, It is under.
stood that the complaint will be for rihinl
the mails.
From the district attorneys once las
night It was learned that Gammill hst
been under suspicion for the disappearance
Of certain money orders which we're sup
posed to have been delivered by him, and
that for some days past he had beer
watched by one Of the inspectors from tn,
postal department, but not until the post
master Of the South Omaha office calleC
for the inspectors yesterday was the evi
dence deemed sufficient for making tn
move. Among the chief witnesses agains
Gammill will be, II is expected, the post
master under whom he was working.

A PROTEST,

We learn from authoritative
sources that there is q scheme on
foot to cut off the Lawyers canyon
precinct (including Ferdinand apd
Greencresk) from Idaho county
and add it to the proposed new
county, and that mass meeting
for the furtherance of that purpose
will be held at Ferdinand tomor-
row night. We have spoken tor a
large number OF citizens from that
vicinity and they are unanimous
in protesting against the procedure.
They all say that Idaho county is
good enough for them for the pres
ent and, if in after years it be-
comes necessary to divide the
prairie country and the mountain
country into separate counties a
division such as is now proposed
would only be hindrance to our
prosperity and welfare. If there is
any reconstruction to be done let
the ntain region of Idaho coun-
ty (Which is an empire in itself
be cut off from the agricultural
section and add to Camas prairie a
part Of the similar country Of Neg
perez county and thus make a
county OF which we can all be
proud. There is no use and no
sense in butohering up two coun-
ties SO they will be nuisance to
themselves in the future just to
further the schemes Of q few would
be pie biters.
