BOY ARRESTED WITH
W. SCOTS HORSE
HORACE HAYES TOLD SOME
WEIRD STORIES ACCORD
ING TO REPORT.

A boy known as Red" Hayes, aged
about IA or Is, was taken in custody
about II o'clock last night, as he had
in his possession horse, which it was
believed he had taken without permits
sion of the owner. He was held I'M
til almost o'clock this morning,
when it ives thought after investlga-
ton, that the story he told was true,
and that his father had traded for the
horse and he was released. The boy
claimed that his father had given
gray mare and a blind mule III eX-
change for the animal, and his story
was believed by some of those to
whom he told it, Some boys claim
that he had offered to sell the horse
for eleven dollars, and as the animal
was a very valuable one, this did not
tend to confirm the story of the trade,
if true
He seems to have left town after
being released, and inquiry in differ
ent towns of the county failed for
some time to reveal his whereabouts
1t late rdeveloped that the horse
belonged to William Scott, who lives
about seven miles east of town.
The horse is sixteen hands high
ree/white feet, bald face, and PAGES
NEARLY all the time, and is in good con-
dition. The animal is said to be worth
about 5000.
After getting in communication with
Mt. Pleasant word was received from
there about $50 that the boy had been
taken into custody, and Sheriff Cod
win left for that place shortly after
for the purpose of bringing the boy
| and horse oack, and is expected to ar
rive at 8 O'Clock this afternoon.
The boy Is named Horace Hayes,
and his father is Sam Hayes, of Rock
Springs. ~

to vote foc Hooper because he yoted

Prof. Dyer paid his respects to Har-

the harmony chairman the "Invincible
in peace-Invisible in war" He re-
lated a story of Senator Taylor, who
during the Spanish-American war;
wished to enlist in the army, going to
President Mckinley, but the Presi-
dent laid his hand upon Taylor's
shoulder saying: go on back to
Tennessee, Bob If you go to war
we are afraid you will get hurt" The
President knew that If Taylor went
there, he would get up harmony
meeting before the first battle and try
to harmonic the whole thing.
Prof. Dyer continued: THE con-
vention of October will only be q re-
hearsal of a great musical comedy, IN
which Bob Taylor plays the harmoni-

Campaign Set Forth.

heard him say, when he was not q

seeking reelection to the Senate OF
the United states: Defeat me for
che Senate, and will devote the re
mainder of my life to making it inn
possible for you to ever defeat anoth'
or man for another ofice!' "
With these thrilling words of Ed
ward armack, Prof. G. w. Dyer evok-
I'd the largest volume of applause OF
his entire speech in the Grand Opera
House Monday afternoon. Round al
Ger round Of cheering swept through
the crowded house, as they showed
their determination to stand By the
principles for which the noble leader
of the people gave up his life.
Prof. G. w. Dyer was introduced I'M
mediately after the conclusion OF
Capt. Hooper's speech by Hon. e. l..
Gregory, of Mt. Pleasant. From first
60 last of his speech he was made to
feel that the entire sympathy OF the
barge audience was lined up solidly
with him and the candidate for Gov
>-nor in whose interest he spoke. In
closing he said: IF the Patterson
machine wants harmony, they must
nut three-fourths of their gang in the
6enitentiary, and come to us, for we
will never so to them"
Inthe beginning of his speech, Prof.
Dyer said IF Hooper, being a. Re-
publican, is what he is, cannot help
asking what would he have been If
he had been a Democrat. In the words
OF JEFF Mccain, he is just the sort OF
man that God intended for Demo
crat"
He said that there were two classes
0f people, one standing for good gov
Arnment, and the other one for bad
government. And Governor Patter-
non had rounded up all the latter
class, so that the good people may fire
hroadside into them without fear or
hitting any of themselves All loyal
men desert an organization when that
organization 'degenerates itself into
n corrupt machine, and the boilers are
khe ones who stand by the machine
against the principles of right and law
and order. The only possible thing
Ror the law-loying citizens to do is to
vote for Hooper, the candidate Of the
party.
1.-The paramount issues of this cam
paign are, said the speaker, enforce
ment of the law, free judiciary, and
Ehe rights of the people. Hooper
stands for Ill these things. Is prohi-

The editor of the Leader, cannot
conscientiously support the Hon. Levi
H. Bancroft for attorney general on
the republican state ticket. In the
first place. he was not the choice Of a
plurality of the republican voters.
even If the ballots cast for Frank T.
Tucker were blank ballots, he being
dead. But we might have disregard
ed that phase of the question, had it
not been for the heartless reference
he made to the late Mr.. Tucker in his
GAINESVILLE address. The writer had
known Mr.. Tucker or many years and
knew him to be high minded,
honest, conscientious, Sensitive
gentleman who would scorn to do a
dishonest or disreputable act, and his
remark was as uncalled for as it was
cruel. AS a friend of the late Mr..
Tucker. we would be untrue to his
memory if we should support the man
who maligned the dead, who cannot
reply, and add sorrow to stricken
hearts.

1t was thoughtless of Col.

face of the fact, that he, Roosevelt.
dominated the republican state con-

Ii Murphy did wrong, be is no worse
than Roosevelt. We are having too
much one man power in our state and
national politics.
AS has been remarked heretofore:
Politics makes strange bed fellows.
Up in the northern part of the state,
the republicans are organizing Re-

that the conditions in the state Justify

democrats at the tins of the free
silver craze few years ago, when

With Roosevelt running to and fro
in the country, giving his approval of
the Payne-Aldrich tariff in one section
and denouncing it in another section,

their declarations of principles and
compare them with their speeches of
two or more years ago. Several of
these ardent CD LaFoIlette supporters
of today did not vote with LaFollette
in the congress, and even voted in
favor of the Payne-A ldrich- Cannon
tariff bill. Will the progressive
voters remember these facts on ele"-
tIoa day-Sauk County Democrat.
Yes, remember the fact on election
day anc vote for the men who are
working for the best interest of the
people without regard to their political
affiliations.
1t is no longer a question of party,
but individual honesty, ability and
merit. The voter should inform
themselves as to the character and
trust worthiness and then cast their
ballot for the men who will work for
the greatest interest for the greatest
number.
When you go to the polls November
s tu vote. be sure that you place
cross after the name of each cand1-

you wish to vote, be he republican,

for whom you please.
