Man, Just Dead, Was
Terror to Thieves

Joseph T.. Jacobs. who was once de-
,scribed by a police commissioners as
being "the greatest detective In the
country and an American sherlock
Holmes" who died recently at ms
home in Flushing, L. L., was the OLDEST
United States postoffice inspector ana
probably had arrested more safe blow
ers and "yeggmen" than any other de-
ltective in the country. He acted at
various times as special bodyguard to
President Roosevelt.
Joe" as he was known, knew every
postoffice safe blower and mail pouch
thief of any consequence in the couh-
try. He studied their habits. With
the late Christopher f. James ms
"partner," who died as a result of in
juries from a fall, two years ago, ne
: had a rowing assignment in the postot-
flee department.
Much of Jacobs work was never
/ heard of BY the public. and was OF q
onfidentiaI nature for the government
Some. however, is well known, for It
was he who brought about the Solving
of the $40O, 900 mail pouch robbery on
the West Shore ferry, and the s5o'ooo
jewelry robbery from mail pouch on
a Jersey Central ferry.
When President Roosevelt wished TO
travel he usually put in request to
the postoffice department to have Ja-
cobs assigned to go with him, Tor ne
knew Joe" personally and liked him.
Among the better known profess
sionaI yeggs and pouch thieves run
down by Jacobs were "Leadville Jim
my" Bangor Billy" Buck Ballard
and Topeka joe" He also secured
the evidence that sent to the electric
chair Goat Hinch and whitley
sullivan. He was always charitable
toward first offenders, however, ana
many times appealed to the court TO
be lenient i'm cases where he had
found extenuating circumstances.

United We Stand


When we expressed IN this column
last week our earnest hope that the
Democrats Of st. Mary's would har
TnOnize their differences in emula-
tion Of Of the State leaders and line
up soIidly behind the State and local
tickets, we resisted the temptation
10 venture prediction that this
happy condition would become a
reality. But never. IN our most OPP
timistic moments, could we antici-
pate the Enselfish spirit of conces-
sion and generosity that prevailed
when representatives Of all factions
gathered in Leonardtown on Mon
day aud. after calm and dispassion-
ate discussion of the matters in con-
troSersy, agreed on a compromise
that completely obliterates all form
or disputes and enables the party TO
present an uubroken front in the
coming campaign.
The veranda of Hotel St. Mary's
was lacftly selested by all factions
AZ thu theatre of activity and for
many hours il was a "toss up"
whether il would terminate in q
scrap or a love feat. Oh, yes! there
was plenty of fight talk in the air,
and why not: The Democratic
party is not made up of weaklings
or mslly-cOddles. They were all
red-bloode'i men, sent there by their
supporters who looked TO them for a
square deal all around, and prepared
TO fight If necessary to secure il.
But pervadIng the whole atmosphere
was an honest desire TO get together
and a willingness to give and take
a little in order TO reach ar amicable
agreement
Intermingling between the various
groups, affOrding an opportunity for
the free exchange Of opinions, aided
by the tactful efforts OF diplomatic
mediators, finally resulted in q gen.
eral desire 10 get up close together
and talk it over. The movement
was spontaneous and to call it love
feaat only feebly expresses it.
For years we have fought each
other and after every encounter we
have found that the Republican
party was the only winner. By
afiilistion, by sentiment and by ira
dition tins is a Democratic county
and the success of the opposition
has been measured not by Republi-
can strength, but by Democratic
dissention.
During the years that we have al
lowed trivial differences TO divide
our forces we have Indulged in some
pretty lively and memorable battles
battles in which we expended our
energy and our strength against each
other, aud in which the spoils of
war have almost invariably gone to
the common enemy. But even at
tina. We have not fought entirely in
vain. We have cherished and en-
couraged the fighting spirit; the old
war horses of Democracy have been
kept limbered ap, and younger ones
have been developed. Never did
the Democratic party of st. Mary's
approach a campaign under such
suspicious circumstances. We know
its mettle for we have had it sharp
ened and tested against each other;
we know the will and the heart to
fight is sound and true, and we
stand shoulder TO shoulder on a com
mon ground. The sum total of this
spells victory not only for the local
candidates. but also a substantial
majority for the State ticket.
