To all animate things there must | be an end sooner or Tater. God's creatures serve out the commission of their destiny and die as they have lived for good orfor evil. When the bandit and murderer is shot down in his tracks, or captured and _ finally executed, the world looks on and smiles. He has only met the fate that beset the pathway of his own choosing. and the work is approved regardless of how or by whom it may have been done. Jesse James isdead. The outlaw of nearly a quarter of acentury final- ly in an ungarded moment ‘bites the dust’’ inside the limits of that State whose people had suffered most from his depredations. and within hearing distance, almost, of his na- tive heath—the home of his child- hood and his life of cmme. Died, oo, with his boots on, like most men who foliow his occupation. Naturally the public will rejoice over the death of Jesse James, many will doubtless applaud the slayer,but the manner in which, the bandit though he was, methis death, will ellicit less appreciation ot the deed than the results would proba- bly call for. The act itself ofa man attacking another with a view ; ticket. to inflict injury or produce death ; without giving a moments warning is under any and all circumstances, cowardiy and mean. When the Ford brothers resolved to kill Jesse James, they should have included in that resolve a determination to meet with more determination to rid his State of such criminals. The deeds of Jesse here. Tames need Though ot ne- recounted through not be twenty years ration knows them by heart, and those who in future are curious enough to become acquainted of their character and extent, can find ample details in| the histories and biographies of the West. To all lawabiaing citizens the long cherish- and | bandits that arose trom out the de- bris of the civil will soon be realized. One of the Youngers is dead, the rensaining three are slowly dying in prison, while Jesse James, perhaps the most desperate of all, is by this time, sleeping beneath new- var, ly laid sod, at rest from all uneasi- | men were These leaders, and they counted many fol- ness and fear. lowers, Who are now scattered, and not having the old captains to rally them for fresh deeds of crime, they | will become extinct, their names will go out of daily use among men and their become a part of Western histery from which the soon acts | young generation can deduce some valuable lessons. WHO IS RESPONSIBLE. The result otf the yesterday shows deteat of half the ticket.

This year the Tres indicated no particular preference as to the politi- cal complexion ot a ticket, prefering to content ourselves with whatever course the party might take in the premises, and were satisfied to go into the convention and nominatef[ a straight ticket, however much our in- clinations may have been against it upon the ground of expediency. The results ot who usually control conventions hoped for, it was exceed.ngly doubt- ful from the outset what Tuesday’s election would produce. That the ' men who have hitherto arogated to thomselves the exclusive right of i ‘“bossing,, in municipal and county and affairs, professing a high order of Demiocratic virtue, stalwartism if you please, gave a very cold support to the ticket, does not admit ot much question or denial.

One of the first queries ot the public | when considering fa candidate tor office is, is he qualitied? When this is applied to Arch Sims, a knowl- he was the very !

The name and life of Gentry West is synenymous w ith the origin.

Crittenden is accessory to the | murder of Jesse James. and can’ }edge of the fact that for several years efficient deputy of | office , will, we think, suffice as to the ques- | | for the capture of a party see how he is to escape indictment.t We suppose that Gov.

When the authorities offer a reward dead or _ alive, it is supposed that the captur- country | ; as is necessary very obliging in business. and for | i this trate in his character he 1s very | favorably regarded by the people. | Should Arch Sims be declared the nominee by the primaries. it would aftord — the most pleasure to go its whole length for him until his election in Novemoper.
