Bach of the defendants had been indicted on two counts of kidnep- ing, two of false !mprisonment and one of assault with a deadly weapon and had been under a total bond ef $45,002. They were scoused of having raided the home and bonded Winery of Fidel and Matias Elduayen, at In- glewood, a suburb, gelzed the men as alleged bootleggers and turned them loose after officials had refused to lock them up. In the raid M. B. Mosher, Ingle wood constable was killed and his son, Walter ©. Mosher, a deputy constable, and Leonard Ruegs, « deputy sheriff were wounded. According to evidence brought out at the Mosher inquest and at the trial, the raid was planned at « meet ing of the Ku Klux Kian in Ingle wood. Originally there were 87 defrnd- the case of Nathan A.

FIGHT WE WILL PASS hen: i what ra w ce an @ art thou execrable s! That darest thou, grim and terrible, inthe Advance thy miscreated front athwart our peth? See yonder gates? Through them we mean to pass Without leave asked of thee! ire or taste thy foll: and learn hell-born, to contend with t © spirits of Heaven. This is our defy. The answer to your “Thou shalt not.” We shall pass into the gates, clothed with the authority confirmed by the will of a clear, clean majority of the sov- ereign electors of the state of Wyoming. We do not desire to pass otherwise. We are not to be deterred by the puerile, silly and far-fetched cry of fraud emanating from a disap- pointed, beaten and discrediied foe. When a tin whistle newspaper so far cast aspersions upon the integrity of sworn election officers in a far away community, and without tiic ¢! ghtest knowl- edge of facts or color of specifications for such damnable intimations, it is appealing to disorder to hide its chagrin at defeat. We do not believe that John Hay or Robert Carey would for an instant countenance the slightest irregularity in a pri- mary, should such a thing occur. We do not believe either of them would accept any benefit under such an act. We do not believe any such thing occurred. No responsible person has yet advanced any such dastardly innuendo. It is the last refuge of a beaten foe in the contest to ery fraud. That’s what it is now. And it is a treading upon slippery ground. For there are embarrassing inquiries that might be addressed nearer home. On the face of the primary returns John Hay has 15,667 votes, Robert Carey 15,300, a majority for Hay of 367. If this proves correct on the official count John Hay will be the Republican party nominee. He would not accept any nom- ination that was unclean. There is no danger of a tainted nomination. If defeated fairly John Hay will offer his con- gratulations to his opponent and give him support like the gentleman and Republican he is. Governor Carey will doubtless do the same thing with the situation reversed. And it is not believed that Governor Carey countenances any such gratuitous insults and low flings at honest Republicans as are ostensibly hurled in his behalf by the tin whistle member of his orchestra. DISTORTING FACTS The report in the morning newspaper with reference to the sale of the Tribune would take first place in any contest for deliberate misstatement of facts, wanton disre: of truth and absolute ignorance of the subject dealt wi The stories carried in yesterday’s Tribune gave the public all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the sale. It was a simple business transaction similar in kind to others occur- ring over the land daily. The morning paper made no effort to learn a single detail from the Tribune, and we are assured by Mr. Minal Young of the New York Oil company that he was not approached by any representative of the morning paper for particulars. These are the only sources from which correct information could have been secured, touching the statements made, Mr. Barton, the new owner, not being in the city. The details reported by the newspaper in question are erroneous from beginning to end, as to negotiations, parties; figures, objects, aims and ambitions. The Mr. Fuller re- ferred to is unknown and no such negotiations ever occurred. It matters little to the former owners, or the new owner, what false statements the morning sheet would, out of its ignorance, hatred or venom, make, if they did not place other persons and corporations in a false position before the public. For itself, and speaking for Mr. Barton, the Tribune de- nounces as a tissue of falsehood the entire article appearing in the morning paper. As for the New York Oil company, Mr. Minal Young of that concern has made the following statement: “I was much surprised to read in the Morning Herald of today a statement that the New York Oil company had pur- chased the Tribune. ] may say that the statement is utterly untrue. This company is in no way connected with the sale r purchase of any newspaper property, has no knowledge of the newspaper business or desire to enter it. We are an oil corporation purely and simply and all our energies and capital are devoted to that interest. No representative of the Herald came to me with reference to any proposed pub- lication and had he done so, he would have saved himself the misrepresentations he has now given the public. The story, in its entirety, so far as we are concerned, is untrue and its publication is an amusing surprise to me. Apparently the story is published with some foolish idea of injury to the New York Oil company or to the Tribune. Such irrespon- sible and unauthorized reports are a damage to the business. ‘interests of any community.” forgets itself ag to RUSSR 800, 000 MEN MOSCOW, Aug. 26.—(By The As- | sociated Press.)—Russia has already | reduced her fighting forces “to 800,- 000 men and ts always ready. to en- ter any disarmament conference which gives guarantees of success.
