Another Robbery

The home Of Guy Mahoney
was entered early last evening
and SIS 90 in money q set Of
silver spoons and q gold watch
taken when they were fright
ened away. Considerable jew
elry, consisting of rings, brace
lets and a.lavalliere, also about
So 90 in pennies were taken
but were lost in the haste to
get out the back door. r. n.
Harris returned home about
eight thirty and was surprised
as he entered the sitting room
to see a man going out the
other door. Mr. Harris chased
him and the thief ran up the
bank onto Superior street and
disappeared in the darkness.
The local police were notified
as we'll as the sheriff's Office
and a very determined effort
made to catch the thief but 90
far the efforts hive been UNI
availing. Suspicious point very
strongly to local talent and in q
certain direction but the Off.

dence to arrest anyone as yet.

were sent out with appeal to
to prejudice, as shown in circu-
lars.
AS to home endorsement,
Hamilton, Democrat for Gov
ernor, received in Crawford
county 24l6 votes, while Cas-.
we'll for State Senator received
1865, thus giving Caswell 149
votes ahead of the Governor in
his home county. In Harrison
Co. Clark received 1886 votes,
while for Senator. Dewell re.
ceived 24l7 or 181 more than
the Governor, thus showing q
larger home endorsement than
was given to Mr.. Caswell. In
Monona county, which was
ne utral ground, while Clark
lost TO Hamilton by 80 votes,
Dewell won over Caswell by IS
thus running 1856 votes ahead
of the ticket in that county,
while Caswell ran $50 votes be:
hind Hamilton in that county.
With these results and the
conditions existing, Harrison
county has no apology to Of.
fer that it's candidate for STATE
Senator did not win. Had
Dewell seen fit to assent to thu
demands of the Liquor League,
he would easily have beer
elected.
While a post norton is NJ
good for results it is some,
times a satisfaction to know
the real facts.
