the Downieville staye while it Was
coming to this city Thursday made a
heavier haul than has heretofore been
publicly reported: He-got-from the
Express Company a gold bar from
Downieville worth $2,209 and also
some $800 besides, besides all the
mail matter which he carried away
with him. He went into the bushes
60 or 70 feet from the road und with
a hatchet broke open the two wooden
express boxes by smashing in the front
ofthem. The mail sacks were cut in
two just below the padlocks. The
crime was doubtless committed by
some one’ well acquainted. around

Ratification at You Bet.
The You Bet Republicans on Friday
evening fired a series of blasting powder salutes in honor of Harrison’s election. This was merely an informal
demonstration indulged in, as B. F.
Snell of that town told the reporter
yesterday,’because thev were so full
of joy that they could not hold themselyes longer. ‘‘But,”’ said. Mr. Snell,
“we will have our big time Monday
night. We propose to build a mammoth bonfiré on Chalk Bluff Mountain and shoot off all the powder we
cin get. You county seat folks may
hear the banging if the wind is right.
for we will muke more nofse than was
ever made before.” :

IN MEMORIAM,
{By a Republican.
Cleveland is gone.
How the bell tolls!
Cleveland is gone,
Killed at the poHs.
Who snowed him under?
Well, letus suggest,
It was none other
Than Free Trade and West.
No more can he veto,
No more how! reform.
Being tried and found wanting,
He’s wrecked in the storm.
He has fished and has vetoed
The pensions of vets
Till the country has buunced him,
And t.at’s why he frets.
A DEMOCRATIC WAIL.
[By One of the Late Lamented.]
Ben Harrison is elected, »
You can bet that he got there;
Butthe ai look dejected
For he begins to braid his hair.
He talks of the Flowery Kingdom,
“Of the land beyond the sea;
And whenever he speaks ot Chinamen
He always calls them “We.”
Oh, we have a Chinese ruler!
Then let the peuple shout,
For we have a Chinese ruler
Who'll turn alf but Chinese out.
Sock the tariff onto breadatuffs,
Sock the tariff onto tea,
But take it off of Chinamen
So they can come in free.
They can laugh at dear old Grover
‘or signing the Scott Bill, ~~.
But when they swallow Benjamin
They tuke a bitter bill.
THE BURIAL OF ‘THE DEMOCRACY
Not « voice was heard, not a funeral note
As its corpse to the portals we hurried;
Neta voter bewailed with a farewell mgh
Its death as its body we buried. _ —
We buried it one Autumn n‘ght
iz By Salt River silently flowing,
And marked not the spot by aslub or stone
For the spot was not worth the knowing.
It is such campaign poetry as the
foregoing that makes the memory of

“T scratched just one Republican
when I voted,” said O. K. Cloudman
of You Bet when he was in town the
other day, ‘and I only scratched his
ear.”
When the excitement of receiving
returns was at its hight, Chairman
Rector of the County Central Committee and that other staunch Democrat, George E, Turner, each r-ceived
4 grape-vine telegram signed. by Wm.
D. English and saying that the State
of Missouri had given a pice }Inuralty
for Harrison. Mr. Turner saw through
the joke at once, but Mr. Rector did
not. The latter “twas knocked clear
out,” as a spectator affirma, “Dm
prepared for most anything this year,”
said he,‘‘buf this is the last straw that
breaks the camel’s back, They might
have had the solid south and welcome,

them since the day He made them a nation and vouchsufed to them a free Government. With loving kindness He
has constantly led us in the way of
. prosperit. and greatness. He has not

He has warned us of our dependence
upon his forbearance and has taught
us that obedience t> His holy law is
the price of a continuance of His
precious gifts. In acknowledgment
of all that God has done for us asia

for the rich rewards that have followed
the labors of our people in their shops
and their marts of ‘trade traffic. Let
us ypivé thanks for the peace and for
the rocial order and contentment within our borders, and for our advancement in all that adjs to a nation’s
greatness, and mindiul of the afflictive

Up in sierra County.
In Sierra county heretufore a Democratic candidate for office has stood
about as good a chance of getting what
he wanted us did the historical ea\
without claws when it went to hades
on a prospecting tour, But on Tuesdey last, according to a gantleman
who arrived here Friday evening from
Downieville, the vote on some of the
candidates took a flop and quite an
element of independent voters was
unexpectedly developed. The gentleman says the returns as tar as received
indicate the election of three Democrats. George Abbey of Sierra City
defeats the present Republican Supervisor froni that district. For Assemblymaa from Sierra and Plumas
counties Bert. Schlesinger, a rising
young attorney of Sierra City who led
the forlorn. hope of the Democracy, is
believed.to have defeated H. K. Turner.of Sierra Valley who formerly was
a well-known resident of Nevada
county. Schlesinger is figured to be
about 30 votes ahead. For County
Treasurer, Martin Carroll of Sierra
City, Democrat, has at last accounts
31 votes more than John Scott, an
old-line Republican who has been
Treasurer Yor ten years or so past and
has proved faithful to his trust.

What the Late Election showed
Plainly. : RE he
—_
storm . as passed, it may be useful to
reflect on the causes that have produced such results both in the nation
and county.
The natioal r2sult proclaimed to the
world that the United States with
their vast and diverse resouces and
industries are content tu be self -ustaining, and: have forever renounced
all dogmas that tend toward freer trade
with outside dations. ©
The lesson in Nevada county is
that no one can be.certian in advance
of his elsction, and. that the appointment of deputies is not always a
source of strength to a camidate. «In
proof of this,note the fact that neither
Morgan, Brady or Danster publicly
be. Perhaps for this reason they recvived the support of that class of men
who believe every man ought to run.
on his own merits and not seek to
bolster himself up by violating the
law in regard to the selection of deputies.
The dissatisfaction that resulted in
the defeat of so much of the Republican county ticket was produced by
numerous causes which it might be
well for officials to observe hereafter.
It goes without saying that Republicans caused the defeat of their own
party nominees. The so-cul ed ‘‘too
many terms” objection was not used
so much by way of argument as. by
way of excuse for changing votes.
Not one of the successful candidates
on either side can be classed as a politivian. Except Brady, they might be
called green hands at the business.
Does this show that_the old _ political
methods are play it? Not one of
the elected wag rich enough to make a
costly fight. Does this prove that
money has ceased to be a power in
elections? It proves at least that a
clean social deportment and visitation
from house to house are excellent
substitutes for spending so much money in bar rooms. Surely this is an
improvement.
A man’s friends often elect him to
office.by working for him “like beavers,” only to find themrelves ignored
by. him when he is successful. In
Buch cases the office hold-r is. fool
enough to think he can get along without his old friends and goes to work in
the delusive hope of making ‘‘friends”
among’ his political foes. The next
time he rnns he finda himself all alone
without his old ‘warriors,’ .and_ perishes in the hour of battle. . Sxuan.
_ A “Knifer.”
The New York Evening Post gives
the following detiuition of the term
“«knifer,”’ which has come into American politica with a specific application
to the New York Sun and Mr. Dana,
in this campaign:
The ‘‘knifer” must profess outward
good will to the candidate whom he is
‘knifing,’”’ so as to injure him more
effectively by spreading stories or predictions, or muking ‘‘admis-ions,”
whieh, coming trom an open enemy,
woulddo little harm, but coming from
& professed friend make more or less
impression.

incarcerated in Chicago for robbing a
man through the medium of a job

was released from the Porkopolis bastile, but was immediately re-arrested
and t:ken to Fayette, Wisconsin,

crimes committed are by a large percentage of a petty nature,
From 1872 to 1876 many banking institutions in all partsof the country wero
robbed by the most daring methods,
During these four years the gang headed
by Jim Dunlap, to whom Inspector
Byrnes referred above, stole nearly
$4,000,000 in cash and? marketable bonds,
Detective Sergeant Phil Reilly, of the
Central Office, who has taken no small
share in putting down crime, remembers
Dunlap and his pals well. In the latter
part of 1807 a smart young man was convicted of grand larceny in Hlinols and
sent to the penitentiary, Me was handsome and well educated, and because of
his ability to swindle people he wascalled
“Hustling Bob.” His right namo was
Robert Scott. Whilein prison he camo
in contact with an old and hardened crim”
inal who was known to the police of Europe as well as those of this country.
This man was the notorious Tom Reilly
or “Scar-faced Tom." He it was who
headed the great gang of bank burglars.
Taking a fancy to Scott, he met him in
Chicago after his term expired and introduced him to Dunlap. Reilly was not a
bank robber, but be always declared that
he could tell just what line of crime a
man was best suited for,and he advised
Scott and Dunlap to become partners in
the business of bank burglary. Dunlap
was young and bright. Ho brought
Scott to this city and made him acquainted with one Connors, a promising
crook alway# on the lookout for big
stakes, .This trio formed the nucleus
of tho celebrated band of professional
eafe crackers. Soon after they robbed
the Falls City Bank in Louisville of
. $200,000. _Because—of the shrewdness of
the gang tho detectives were baffled,
George, Milvs, Edson and others becamo
members ‘of the firm of Dunlap & Co.,
and they robbed right and left. Tho
Pitteton (Mass) bank lost $400,000 through
the efforts of Dunlap and Scott, and
then the great Northampton bank robbery occurred, Arrests followed, and
Edson save his. associates away. Connow walked out of Ludlow Street Jail,
and has never beeu scen in these parts
since. Billy Porter is in Paris living
like a sybarite, Red Leary is dead,
aud the others have either reformed
or gone to parts unknown, Scott
and Dunlap were convicted and
sent to imprisonment for twenty years
each. Scott died of consumption
five years ago, and now Dunlap ~ ts
about to enter {nto the world again.
He is supposed to have hid several bun:
dred thousand dollars worth of bonds
before he was arrested, and he laugh.
ingly informs his keepers that he intends to lead the life of a gentleman
when he comes out, Among the other
bank robbers who bave found New York
too hot for their comfort, aro Frank
Buck, alias ‘ Buckey'’ Taylor; Jim
Burnes, Dilly Burke, John Curtin, William Coleman, Rufe Minor, Emanuel
Marks, slias Minnie Marks; Charles
ams, Willirm Robinson, Frank McCoy
Marsh,
been at the head of the detective force,
heard of. They have quietly disappeared.
Inspector Byrnes believes that the day of
organized professional cracksmen is at an
end so far as New York is concerned, Of
course there is alwiys danger of a move
in that direction by the younger genera
tion of crooks, This is attested to by
such prominent citizens as the Itev. Dr
Howarll B. Crosby and Elbridge T, Gerry. These gentlemen have paid considerablé attention to the subject. The detective force is so conducted that a professional criminul cunnot walkthe streets
of thia city for five hours before every
member of the force is on the look out
for him, !¢ is not that such people aro
deterred from committing crime because
they have grown better. They are simly watched so closely that they know
Fatt well the moment they attempt any
“business” they will be arreated. Some
gears ago the financial quarter of the
city was 80 pony protected! that bank
burglars and bank sneaks found it au
easy matter to walk off with largesums
of cash andsecurities, In ten years, however, not one dollar has been stolen in
that quurter by professional criminals,
all the robbery that has been done in
that time may be laid at the doors of
bank cashiers and other attaches of the institutions flveced. ‘The detective bureau
in Wall street avd the system in which
the quarter is patrolled night and day
kes it almost im ible for any one
But the trusted ‘officlals of the bauks at
banking institutions to do any atenling,
It is the sume in other sections of the
city. The drygoods district is almost
burglar proof.
‘The famous forgers who formerly mada
millions of dollars by their skilful penmansbip have either died or ceased operations. A few have ‘gone West, as have
some of the bank burglars. A” Very
few have reformed. At any rate they
do not dare attempt their former
means of obtaining wealth inthis city.
The. notorious William E. Brockway is
the last of the fraternity of professional
forgers. Anything done in that line in
these days is generally traced to either
aclerk ora partuer of the person whose
pame is forged, It is.true that the records show that the number of sneak
thieves and pickpockets is atill very
large, but the Ba vag ta par with whic
they are arrested is materially lessening
thelr pumber, Several are sent to Sing
Sing or tre penitentiary every day.
They are for the most part burglars,
the smart sneaks and the pickpockets
having emigrated tothe West. ~_-*
