to be done now with this criminal?
viii the sheriff permit him to go free,
as was the case with Parent? Will
Ben be held for a few weeks more and
then have the Jail doors opened to
him? Or will he be given the prison

A jury has said that George Sheets
was not guilty of accepting a bride in
connection with the robbery. We may
not go behind the verdict. 1t will be
said that by its verdict i'm the Sheets
case the jury said emphatically that it
did not believe Bell told the truth. Our
own opinion is that he did tell the
truth as far as his own connection with
the crime went. He is corroborated
that far by the MeWhirters, by Don
aldson, Sheets and other witnesses. If
Bell should repudiate all the testimony
he has given it would still be possible
to convict him of robbing the McWhir-
ters
The man is a dangerous criminal
who should be restrained for a long
period of his liberty. The sooner he is

long term the better will be the light

cal prosecutors will stand before the

-FOUR POLITICAL TRAITORS.

Former Governor William o. Bradley,
Republican, was yesterday elected to
the United States senate by a Ken
lucky legislature that contained a
clear Democratic majority on joint bal
lot. Four Democrats voted for Brad
ley, giving him enough votes to win
one of the bitterest political fights that
has ever been waged in any state. 1t
is Republican victory. but if the Re-
publicans of Kentucky think they can
afford TO win treason tainted victories
they are welcome 10 their opinion.
They are entitled TO no more credit for
their success than the British would
have been if the plan of Benedict Ar
mold to betray his country had not
been wrecked by three patriot farm
ers.
The Democrats who voted for Brad
ley are traitors as vile and as low as
were ever disclosed. The conclusion
that their action was Influenced by
money or some other valuable consider
alton is inevitable. For they had an
oPBtA NdiAANgr OCAOAC NiiC lCSull VI Tile
ballot was announced, to change their
votes to a Democrat other than Beck
ham. party man whose hands are
clean, and they refused. We do not
see how they can ever again hold up
their heads in the company of honest
men. There was no more justification
for their action than for Arnold's If
they have not bitter reckoning in
store we will lose respect for the Dem
ocrats of Kentcky.
The Herald has never been of the
opinion that Beckham should have
been elected senator from Kentucky.
He was nominated in snap primary
that reeked with fraud. When he was
governor of the state he openly and
VIGOROUSLY used the patronage at his
disposal in the building of a machine
that was to perpetuate his control over
the Democratic party in Kentucky. He
of his party for the high office he
sought. His defeat is retribution of
the only sort Beckham and his like can
understand. The Democrats who re-
fused to vote for him We're strictly
within their rights. and among the
number were the four who yesterday
voted for Bradley
That last action, however. puts them
forever beyond the pale of decent, hon
orable politics. In the throes of po-
litical dissolution Beckham released
his adheTents. A movement for Con-
gresham Ollie James was started. and
James would have been elected if the
four had changed their votes to him.
The Democrats of the nation lose a
vote in the United States senate for
six years, and for the second time in
her history Kentucky will be repre-
sented in the upper house by a Re-
publican, because four Democrats be-
trayed their party. And. even as the
British made no secret of their con-
tempt for Benedict Arnold, so decent
Republicans viii not conceal their
aversion for these Judases. They. their
children nor their children's children
will ever be able to live down the dis
grace of yesterdays work.

ADJUSTMENTS TO-DAY.
INNOCENT AND INCOMPETENT.

George Sheets has been acquitted by
a jury of accepting bride from the
men who robbed the McWhirters of
$4,000. The verdict was to be expect
ed, since the chief evidence on which
the case was tried came from a man
whose eredibiiity as a witness ought
not TO be conclusive in any court with
out confederation, and the prosecution
could not produce satisfactory con-
hrmatior of his story.
Having secured acquittal. Sheets
ought to be content but mis- friends are
talking of reappointing him TO his old
Office as chief of police. Early in this
case The Herald recorded its belief
that Sheets own story of his cOnnec-
tion with the case proved conclusive
ly his Incompetence TO manage the de-
partment properly. Accepting his story
as true, adding to it the weight of a
jurys acquittal, there still remains the
fact that Sheets permitted the robbers
TO compromise in his office with the
victims and escape from the city with
out any attempt at arrest He made
no investigation of facts which would
cause the most inexperienced police
man to suspect a crime; he made no
official record of the circumstances,
and he withheld from the public all
knowledge of the affair until the two
Scotchmen returned to the city and
consulted attorneys.
In all fairness it is submitted that
a chief of police who is innocent
enough to overlook such an opportu-
nifty 10 detect and punish crime when
the criminals walk into his Office with
the police department of Salt Lake and
protect the lives and property of its
citizens. Just now, particularly, the
department needs the confidence of the
public-a confidence that has been en-
.tirely lacking. due largely to
political Generalization of the force.
The reappointment of Sheets would
complete the Generalization TO the
point of chaos.
Now the Salt Lake public is waiting
with considerable interest TO see what
Inc sheriff's Office and the prosecuting
authorities are going 10 do with the
confessed thief and confidence man,
Bell. Among the many statements
made under oath by Bell was one to
the effect that he had entered into no
arrangement for immunity from prose-
eution in exchange for his testimony
against Sheets. No hope of reward
was held out to him. according TO his
story. And in testifying against
sheets he hopelessly incriminated him
self.
He was present when Parent took
ss.s7s from Alex. Mcwhirter: he went
With She McWhifters to the police
station. posing as a policeman. Later
he went out and secured $1,000 with
which to pacify the McWhirters and
get them out of town. And he admit
: ted that his share OF the loot was one
half of ss.s75. the other half going tc
Parent. Bell had full knowledge OF
the robbery before it was committed
while the work was being done, and he
shared in the proceeds.
He is as guilty as any man connect
ed with the plot according TO his Owl
sxorn statements. Nor may We lose

WHO SET SALOON AF|RE +?
Blaze at Indiana Harbor Ex-
cites Suspicion of
Authorities.

Indiana Harbor, May 2S.-(Specfal.)
Who set Joe SuIentic'S saloon on fire +:
Who soaked n mattress with kero-
sene and placed it In his basement
while the saloOnkeeper slept above:
There are two questions that the
authorities of Indiana Harbor are ask
ing today and they have arrived at no
other conclusion than that the busi-
ness place was set on fire.
The blaze broke out a short time
after closing up time in the building
owned by John Sopsic. Therein Joe
Sulentic keeps a saloon.
The fire department responded nobly
and kept the building from destruc-
tion, the loss being about $50 on con-
tents and $500 on the building. When
Captain H. Lemon of the fire depart
ment went down in the basement he
found the mattress soaked in kero-
sene and believes that some person
attempted arson. The authorities have
begun an investigation .Sopsic's build
ing carried $4,000 worth of insurance
and the stock owned by Sulentic was
insured for 800.

WHITING MAN HAS
A NARROW ESCAPE

Whiting Ind, May 23.-Steve Kajan
of Schrage avenue while crossing the
Pennsylvania tracks yesterday after
noon about $3.50, was accidentally
struck by an eastbound extra freight
and hurled about twenty feet. Kajan
did not notice the approaching train.
but fortunately for him he did not have
time to get onto the tracks or else
would have surely been killed.
The engine caught him on the shoul-
der and lifted him off his feet. The
engineer noticed the accident and
brought his train, which was going at
a fast rate, to a stop
Kajan was made unconscious by the
accident. but in a short time recoy-
cred sufficiently to walk to a physi-
clans office. where it was found that
his head was bruised and that he es-
capped with several other scratches.

.H.S.ATHLETES IN
BIG field MEET
Lake County Schools Annual Meet
ing At Crown Point Fair Grounds
Draws Immense Crowd

and w. II. Nsorey. The games commit
tee consists of e. NJ. Canine, East Chi
cago, and Clyde Alice of Hammond.
The marshaIs are officer George HanIon
of Hammond and officer John Thompson
of East Chicago.
For spirit and real enthusiasm; for
makes for effective work in all lines
of high school activity, the schools
of Lake county have few equals.
This was demonstrated this morn
ing when nearly 500 gay high school
students donned their best duds and
assembled at the Erie depot in Ham
mond to make the trip to the county
seat for the purpose of witnessing
the annual track and field meet of the
Lake county high schools.
Others who were unable to take the
first train went to Crown Point on the
train which left this city at 11:35. In
all over 500 people were attracted from
all parts of the county on the occasion
of this. the most interesting athletic
contest of the year.
The crowd at the depot was a gay
one and with an ideal day in prospect
there was nothing to mar the pleasures
of the day.
Everyone from little Artie Finding
to Prof. w. A. Hill wore a broad smile
in evidence of the fact that the students
and teachers of the local school expect
to win the meet hands down."
1t was rumored that Young of Crown
Point had decided to abandon the idea
of competing in the Lake county meet
and would go to Bloomington with the
idea of entering the state meet which
will be held today
This report was found to be untrue,
however, and Young will make the
usual strenuous effort to win the meet
for his school. It is fortunate that the
state meet is to be held the same day
as the Lake county meet, for 1T pre-
cludes the possibility OF Lake county
high schools participating.
But as it has come to a choice be-
tween the two there is not a high
school in the county which would not
a great deal rather win a second or
even third place in the meet that has
been so hotly contested for years than
to go to Bloomington and upset a few
of the calculations of the down state
athletes.
Upon the arrival of the delegations
from Hammond, Whiting, East Chi
cago and Gary at the county seat, they
at once took possession of the town
and relieved their pent-up enthusiasm
by cheering and answering the cheers
Of the home and visiting teams.
There were two extra coaches on the
early morning Erie train and later
were hitched to the o'clock express
train for the purpose of bringing the
students back to Hammond at a sea-
sonable hour.
The indications are that the track
at Crown Point will be in good condi-
ton and it is expected that under the
F! ideal conditions of weather and the
track there will be some of the Lake
| county records broken.

walking time is confined to the noon
hour, but every minutes is used for
the exercise.
The walking territory is toward
Hessville and along the Michigan Cen
trail tracks and in the fields, through
the woods, and anywhere where the
fancy Of Mcconnell may lead his faith
fuls.
