THE OFFICIAL VOTE. The Vote of Kansas For President and Governor as Declared By the Board of Canvassers. Following is the vote of Kansas for president and governor given by coun- RUSTLER WAR. “Red’’ Angus Gives the Particulars of} the Wyoming Raid. Have the Range to Themselves— Their Day is Past and the New Order of ties: IDEAS OF THE STOCKMEN. ri gi é To Run All the Small Settlers Of and soon 2 | 5 = Allen. sheriff of Johnson county, who raised a posse and defeated the invaders last spring, arrived from the north last evening. Angus is on the way to the State penitentiary at Laramie witha batch of convicts. He is a big, fine- looking man, a fluent talker, and while affable is positive and frank in his utter- ancesand comments. Of the Powder river war and politics he said: “None of us ever dreamed of sucha thing as that raid) When a man came and told me that a mob of fifteen to twenty had killed Nate Champion and Reuben Ray at the Nolan ranch, I did not know what to make ofitatall I took a party of first-class men and cut across the country for the ‘scene. My deputy organized a larger force and traveled by the road. I first came up- on the wagons of the whitecaps and captured them, then took in the Nolan ranch. I saw there how the fifty stock- men and hired Texans had uccupied an entire day in killing Champion and Ray; how they had fired » hundreds of shots into the cabin; how they had finally fired it and riddled Champion with bullets as he ran fora gulch. Ray had died inside and his body was burned. This was the most atrocious, cowardly and barbarous thing that I ever saw. Champion wou:d have fought any half dozen of those fellows single-handed. He was a brave and henest man, and people who knew Ray say the same of him. The invaders camped and took supper after they had killed the two men. My party in- ereased and I followed them. They se- cured fresh horses at the EK. ranch and reached the T. A., and had it barri- caded for a siege before I overtook them. My posse grew till it numbered over 100 and there would have been 250 in another day. Many of my boys wanted to make a charge on the fort, but I would uot allow it. But for the interference of the military I would have captured the party within ten hours. They were in a bad hole. Mem- bers of my posse would have killed sev- eral of them in spite of all I could have done. “T admit that there are a few rustlers in Johnson county, but the men who or- ganized and led that expedition were the greatest thieves the range ever knew. The plot was to drive the rust- lers and the small ranchmen out of the country and have all the feed for the big herds. The settlers have the coun- try now, and they are going to keep it. Every citizen is well armed, and I can raise @ posse of 250 tip-top tighters in three hours They wanted to kill me because they could not use me. I will arrest and prosecute any man against whom there is a warant and complaint. but the stockmen did not take to me, and would not do business with me. I could have arrested the men who killed Deputy United States Marshal Well- map, but they would not ask my assist- ance. Wellman was killed by mistake. The bullet that ended his life was meant for another man. “The election comes out just the way I thought it would. The people were with the so-called rustlers, because they were under dogs) It was the rich against the poor, and the poor won.” Angus is a Grand Army man and an Odd Fellow, and he has friends all over the state. He will more than likely be the next federal marshal for the district of Wyoming. Cherokee.

ARKALON, Kan., Dec. 12.—For the past sixty days Seward county has been in what is known in western par- lance as a county seat fight ‘The elec- tion to relocate the county seat and re- move it from Springfield to Liberal oc- curred last Thursday. The official count was made Saturday showing a majority of 125 for the removal. Two townships including Springfield de- cided not to vote, and people there had declared they would never give up the records without bloodshed. They had tried previous to the elec- tion to enjoin it, claiming an error in the call. Saturday a party of thirty- five well armed men, prepared for trouble, left Liberal for Springfield to get the county records. After the vote was canvassed and an order made for moving the records to Liberal the party took possession at once, loaded them on wagons, which were held in readiness, and started for Liberal, a drive of twenty-five miles, reaching here short- ly before midnight. Springfield people, while feeling very sore over the re- moval, made no objections whatever except County Treasurer: Vessels, who would not allow his books to be re- moved. He will probably remove them himself in a day or two without trouble. ANOTHER CHURCH TRIAL. Father Corrigan Arraigned For Attacks en Bishop Wigger and German Cath- olles. Newark, N. J.; Dec. 12.—The diocesan curia of Newark, met this afternoon at the residence of Mgr. Doane to try charges against Rev. Patrick Corrigan, of Hoboken, involving questions not only between two powerful forces in the Catholic church of America, but those involving in a sense the constitu- tion of this country. On the defendant side, Father Corri- gan arrayed every representative of the liberal and American sentiment within the Catholic church of this country. His opponents represent the more numerous foreign element, perhaps the more powerful element within the Roman church in this country. Arch- bishop Corrigan, is squarely and em- phatically against Father Corrigan,and a majority of the bishops and arch- bishops are either tacitly or openly an- tagonistic. A respectable minority are as yet non-commital at this stage of the TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIE}.
