Webster Davis, of Kansas City, will speak at the republican conven- tion held in this city Saturday. Web- ster wants to be governor and ho is pretty sure of getting the Bates county delegates.

He is an honest farmer boy, and has never before asked party preference. He is well qualified to perform the duties of this office and his name would add | strength to the ticket. THE ROBBERS IDENTIFIED. Officer Bolen and Conductor Trickett Agree on the Nassau Men. Officer Bolen returned to day from Evansviile, Indiana, where he went to look at the three men under arrest there who were supposed to be the Nassau train robbers. He was ae- companied by Conductor Trickett, who was shot in the face during the robbery. Both men identified the robbers and have no doubt that they are the men wanted. Their names as given at Evansville are Morris, Rogers and Vaughn. It is thought they are also wanted in Tennessee and Illinois for | highway robbery. At Evansville they went into a little grocery store in the suburbs and held up the merchant and his son. They took $60 and a watch but gave the watch back. The prisoners denied the Nassau robbery, but that did not shake the faith of Messrs Trickett and Bolen in their guilt. Officer Bolen saw the men while they were loafing in Nevada and the features of the men were well out- lined in the memory of the conduc- tor. Detective Pat Lally will come down to-night. It will be necessary to take Engineer Campbell, his fire- mav, and three trakemen to Evans- ville to further identify the men. The authorities will not give them up until they are certain that they will be punished. The check which they were sup- posed to have had was not located. Mr. Trickett stopped at Butler on his return —Nevada Post. Mr. Tricket said to a Timgs man on Monday that he is positive the three men held at Evansville, are the men who held up his train.
