Downright Correctness.

On Thursday night last, sometime between midnight and morning some one through spirit of viciousness of a very low degree broke both the front windows of the Timerhoff drug store, shattering both so that they are crack ed in several directions reaching near ly all the way across both windows. It is almost inconceivable that any one out of a spirit of revenge for any petty grievance could be so cowardly as to slip out in the dark and deface property in that way. Every good citizen should frown upon such petty meanness and assist the authorities in ferriting out the perpetrators if pos sible.

Stockmen are feeling jubilant over range prospects this year. The range is in better condition this year than it has been for years, with all tanks fill ed with water. Out in the Grand Can yon country blue stem grass is now eight inches high and grass on the mountain is coming in thick, and warm weather will bring it out equally as good as that around the canyon. The amount of water and snow that fell this winter should liven up all the old springs.

MAKES A CONFESSION THAT
sTARTLEs THE CHICAGO
POLICE
WANTS REWARDS FOR MS MOTHER
" THAT IS GUARANTEED HE WILL
REVEAL DETAILS OF THE
CRIMES.

Chicago, Dec. /. - Peter Neider-
meier. one of the members of the
quartet of young bandits who for the
last six months have terrorized Chi
cago, in another confession yesterday
added several more crimes to the long
list already charged against him,
Vandine, Marx and Roeski. With pa
rental love uppermost in his mind
Neidermeier offered to tell Chief of
Police O'Neil of score of robberies,
burglaries and other crimes that he
had committed if the rewards offered
will only be given to his mother.
II want to know that my mother
will be cared for after l am hanged"
said the twenty-one-yearold boy, who
is now the self-confessed murderer of
five men. Il am guilty of crime of
which you know nothing, and for
which
Innocent Men Are Now Suffering.
There are rewards offered for the cul.
prits' arrest and conviction. If you
will guarantee that these rewards go
to my mother will convict myself.
will confess crimes that will startle
you"
In order to make his word good
Neidermeier told of few crimes he
claimed ito have committed. He out
lined them in such a manner, Chief OF
Police O'Neil declared, as only one
concerned in them could do. Neider-
meier, however, refused to divulge the
names OF his partners in the affairs re-
ferred to-, pending&the assurance that
his mother would get the rewards.
A Few Of His Crimes.
A few of the additional crimes he
claims to have participated in are as
follows:
Robbery of the Illinois Central linn
tied express at Paducah, KY, in
which Barth, one Of the robbers, cut
his throat while surrounded in a
swamp. The others escaped.
Hold-up of stage coach, committed
near Butler, Neb., two years ago, and
the robbers escaped.
Hold-up and robbery of Chicago &
Northwestern passenger train near
Clybourne, Iowa, six months ago.
Hold-up and attempted robbery of
Baltimore & Ohio train at Edgemore,
Ind, four years ago:
Minor hold-ups and robberies in Chi
cago were mentioned by Neidermeier,
but in all cases he was careful to con-
ceal the names Of his associates in
crime, merely giving sufficient
Outlines Of the Crimes
to warrant Chief O'Neil to believe that
Neidermeier was telling the truts.
When Neidermeier was taken back
to his cell it was with the assurance
that his mother would be bettered $500
financially. Special Agent Wiley Of
the Chicago & Northwestern, prom
ised him that Mrs. Neidermeier would
be given the $500 for the arrest and
conviction of the robbers at the Cly-
bourne. station and exoneration of a
man named Dolan of ST. Louis, who ia
now under indictment.
The police have been so appalled, by
Neidermeier's confessions that they
hardly give credence to all his asser.
tions 1t is thought his anxiety for
his mothers welfare has prompted him
to make himself the author of crimes
he did not commit. From the asser-
tlons made by Neiredmeier and Van
dine yesterday ;, it is said several ar
rests will be made.

INDEPENDENCE FOR FILIpIHOs
Prof. James Draws Gloomy Picture Of
Situation in the PhiIippfnes-Anti-
imperiaIlst Prophecies FULFILLED
Should Look to the Future.

Boston, Dec. MANY persons of
prominence assembled at the Twenti-
eth Century club for the annual meet
ing of the New England antiimperial-
ist league. After dinner the election
of officers was held, resulting in the
reelection Of former Governor George
s. Boutwell,. Of Massachusetts, as pres
ident Erving Winslow was chosen
secretary and David Greene Haskins.
Jr., treasurer.
In his report Secretary Winslow said:
mo matter what is talked of as
possibility of the remote future in the
United States; no matter what the
corrupting influences of the dominat-
ing race may have been in the Phil
ippines, our demand must be made,
and made more vigorously than ever,
for an immediate, definite. official
promise of the entire independence
for the Filipinos.
Territorial Buccaneerine.
",rhe disastrous efforts of imperial
ism upon our foreign and domestic
policy are too obvious. for enlarge
ment. The republic should be bull
wark against the imperializing ten
denotes which are threatening the
progress of the Anglo-Saxon race
where, in the recent exploit of Pan
anna, we have shown ourselves past
. masters in the art of territorial buc-
caneering. Perhaps insignificant as 1t
may seem this event, in its high-hani-
ed presumption and it's inevitable con-
sequences, may be the means of awak-
ening the American people from the
intoxication which so long possessed
it and of leading it back to the ways
of sanity, peace and humanity"
Prof William James, of Harvard
university, believed anti-imperialists
should look to the future rather than
bemoan the past.
American Lives Unsafe.
"One by one he said, I'VE have
seen the anti-imperialists prophecies
fulfilled, the material ruin of the isl
ands, the transformation of native
friendliness to execration; the de-
moralization of our army, from the
war Office down; forgery decorated
torture whitewashed, massacre con.
doned; the creation of chronic an
archy on the islands, with ladronism
still smoldering and the lives of Amer
lean travellers and American sympa
thizers unsafe anywhere out Of sight
of army posts; the deliberate rein
flaming on our part of ancient tribal
animosities; the incubation of Manila
with floating Yankee scum; these
things, | say, or things like them, were
things which everyone with an breath
of understanding clearly foretold.
1T is only fair to President Mckin
ley and his coadjutors and successor
to say that their better angels also
have a finger in the pie and that the
institution of our civil commission
has gone far towards redeeming ouI
national reputation for good sense"
