Alphabet Allen’s Complaint Tried Before the Police Judge. Mr. Rosewater Bound Over, Although His Honor Judge Hawes Says There is Really No Case fora Jury to Pass Upon. Saturday the case of The State against Edward Rosewater was called in police court, Mr. Rosewater having siguified his readiness to proceed at once to a hearing. Judge Hawes then read the complaint of W. C. B. Allen, charging that on the 19th day of Au- gust Edward Rosewater wilfully and maliciously abstracted the registration book of the sixth ward, District Attorney Ferguson appear- ed to prosccute, apd Mr. Rosewater defended in person. The plea of not guilty being entered the complaining witness, W. C. B, ALLEN testified as follows: Question. Yon are a resident of Omahs, I believe? Auvswer. I am a resident of this city, registrar of the Sixth ward by appointment of the governor of the state of Nebraska, have qualified as such and am now the registrar. ; office is in Union block, Fift@hth and Farnham, in board of trade r¥ms, Q. Look at that book and tell me what it ie? A. It is the registrar’s book of the Sixth ward. Q. From wheredid you get that book ? A. It was farnished to me by the county clerk of this county. Q. State where you have kept that book during the past weekand partic- ularly about that time 1 ATt has been in my desk In my office, Q. Describe to the court the man- ner and place where you kept the book. A. In my desk, in the right hand aperture; it slips in the desk with other books. It is an ordinary desk. Q. I will call your attention to a day or two prior to the 19th of this month, and ask you to state whether ornot you saw the defendant in your room? A. On the 18th (Wedneeday fore- noon), Mr. Rosewater looked into the door and finally came fnto the room. He asked if T was the registrar of the Sixth ward. I told him I was. He asked if I had an extralist. I told him 1 did not have one with me. He asked for my book; I showed it to him. Heasked the privilege of lock- ing at my book, which 1 granted. I was looking over my list. I saw him pass through the hall once or twice and look in again. I put the book in my desk, and closed my desk and closed my door when I went away. Q. State to the court the mannerin which you closed your desk? A. Tt has a lid that cicses down and fastens by a key, and sometimes when 1 am going out I fasten it with a picce of paper; sometimes with a key Q. Had you seen the defendart at any time prior to this in your office! A. Not that I know of. Not for months. Q, Do you know whether he knew you had this book? A. No, sir; no one knew that T had it there, to my knowledge. Q. What time was it _that you th's book last, on the 18th ? A. Tt probably wagabout 11 o'clock in the forenoon. Q. When did you again have occa- sion to look at your desk ? A. T went away that afternoon and locked my room up; Icame down about 4 o'clock and looked into my oflic and went away. Q. Did you notice whether, at that time, your desk was fastened ! Yes, sir; in the morning at the usual time I came down and foundthe indow was open and the blinds, T'hat attracted my attention, and I locked around and found nothing aw tion the improvement of the Big Muddy.

A young man living on Burt street thought so, at least, and ot up for a breath of fresh air. Across the strect he saw two lovers hanging overa gate. They hung there till af- ter twelve o'clock, when the young lady dismissed her admirer, and he silently stole away. She went to the | parental threshold with the intention of going to bed, but the door was locked. She went to another door, found it locked, then tried =il the| windows, which were also made secare a:ainst any midnight marauder. The young lady sat down and took a good { cry, then arose, and with fire in her | ese, and vengeance in her heat, she hurled brick-bats at the blind of a window till it was glad to “give in.” 1t had been written in the maternal | aissipline that 10 o'clock was late encugh to be out in the evening.

About noon I missed the ; that was the first time I noticed it. 1 was workin, noticed one book about 12:30 on the know at that time who had taken it. No one had asked permission totake it Q. What did you next do? A. After dinnerI wentintothecoun- ty clerk’s office and told him that some one had stolen my register book and it would require a good deal of labor to replace it. Then I made some little inquiries and asked Gen. O'Brien, who has a room in the same building if he knew that the boox was taken. 1 told him that somebody had stolen that book from my room He said he knew nothing about it. 1 also asked Mr. McCormick who owns the building and occasionally goes into the room. hen waited until afternoon when I consulted with the judze in regard to it and called on yourself. . State whether at any time yes- terday or_day beforo yesterday, you saw Mr. Rosewater? A. 1did not see him the day before that T know of. Yesterday morning he came into my oftice about 100’clock, Mr. Kenniston, a gentleman who was registering, (I don’t know his rst name) was thereand Mr. W. A. Gwy- er, jr.. Rosewater said nothing to meat that time. 1 talking with Wm. A. Gwyer, jr., about social mat- ters anti] Rosewater started to go out of the room, when I asked if he took a book from the desk. I said, “Some- body has stolen it.” He said, “T will briug it back.” That wes all T said. He went right away and I continued talking with this gentleman. I did not consent that he might take the book. Q. What excuse did he have ? A. He said he wanted a list ot the ward and now he had got one he would send it back. Q. Did you ever refuse to give him access to the book ? A. Nosir. Allen then stated that he sent ax officer with a request that the book should be returned, but he failed to find Mr. Rosewater. Mr. Allen met Mr Rorewater and said he wanted that book. Mr. Rosewater replied that he would 5o and gat it and bring icback. They went together to Sim- eral’s ofiice and found the door locked. On cross-examination Mr. Allen stated that the book when it was re- turned to him was not mutilat- ed or altered in any way that ho had discovered.

Rosewater said he wculd go and get the book, .and jumped into a wagon and went to get the book. Al len was present when Rosewater said he would get the book. . 3. P. M'CORMICK testified that he hasa key to the Board of Trade room and a desk in the room. There are two or three or more desks intheroom. The room is open in the day time; there are other keys that unlock the room; as a general thing the room is kept open. Papers are on fileand people resort there to read them. It is open for members of the Board of Trade to go there at time they want to. Allen’s desk, in the southwest corner of the room, is open. Witness had gone there and let it down himself; it was not locked; witness had not seen this book and did not want to. WILL SIMERAL testified that his oftice is in Creighton block. Onthe morning of the 19th he had the bock in his office. Mr. Rosewater etated that he wished to show that the book was taken to Sim- eral to copy names, when it was to be returned; that Rosewater told Simeral %0, but this line of testimony was ob- jected to and ruled out. EDWARD ROSEWATER testified: “I amthe editor of the Omaha Bek. On the 18th (Wednesday) I weat into the Board of Trade rcoms to see McCormick, who is there very fre- quently, and I found Mr. Allen sit- ting there reading papers. I asked him whetferhe had the Sixth ward register book or a copy. He ssid he had no copy, but he had the book there. Tasked him to show me the book. I suppcse I spent about five or tea minutes in looking it through, and laid it down on the table. I called there four or five tiwes and Thursday moruing | came there uzain. Leaw the bock laying on the outeide of the desk. THE DESK WAS OPEN, and the book lay cn the outside of the lid. 1 picked up the book and took it over Lo Simeral’s office so we could copy it and compare it with ocr reg- ister's list that we are constructing for the republican primaries. Next morning 1 called again, with Mr. Gwyer and to gethim registered wo stepped up to the table and discoy- ered that the registrar was not there, and when Istarted to go Mr. Allen said, “T missed my registration book, do you know where it d have the book and will get it for you. Istarted out. I was busy running ound through the various wards and finally abott 5:30 I met Mr. Kenniston and was told that a warrant was going to be sworn out. While we were talking Mr. Allen came around and Mr. Black handed me a letter, requestiog me to get the book. Tsaid, “Of course I will get the book and give it back to him. It is in Simeral’s office.” We went up there and the door was locked. I said, “I will get it for you in the morning.” He said, “I want itnow.” I replied, “‘Simeral lives in Hart- man’s addition.” T asked a farmer named Sorenson to let me ride up to Simeral’s to get the keys to h's oftice. We came right back. I got out in front of the Union block and heckon- ed Allen to come on; went up to Creighton block, wot the book, and at the foot of the stairs I handed Allen the book. Two minutes afterwards the warrant was served on me. Distrlct Attorney Ferguson then read the law creaf registrars and defining their dutfes.” He then arcued that the cffice was very important, and his books and records more valua- ble than the records of deeds and in the county clerk’s offic He dwelt at some langth on the defini. tion of wilful and malicious conduct, which he claimed was to be presumed by the act, the abstraction of any record being illegal, although nothing was shown that 1t was done for a bad purpose, orany injury sustained, still the charge of misdemeanor was sus- tained. Mr. Rosewater made the following defense: T am amazed that the honorable dis trict attorney has come here in the presence of this audience and consent- ed to allow himself to be inveigled into the prosecution of a case as frivi lous and malicious as this. About four months ago 1 stood in this court, before another judge, upon a most frivolous charge, and whils the honor- able gentleman did not come to prose- cute, it was practically of the same na- ture as the present cace. In each tnstauce I have been brought here at a time cf intense political excitement. *Ve were then on the eve of the most exciting city elec- tion ever held in Omaba. I had seen fit to 2o to a public meeting in a pub- It hall, thers to express my views as a citizen in a way in which it is my right and duty to speak, and I had gone there in the night, armed with a pistol to protect myself against bullies and rowdies—a right I certainly have —a _right I ought to have— in view of the fact that I had been time and again assaulted by bullies, not in the common way, but with deadly weapons, I was then brought before this court and a tremendous hubbub was made, telegrams seut out by the very same crowd that is at the bottom of this thing. 1am again con- fronted by the villainous crew that incited Dick Curry's attempted assas- sination, by scallawags who have time and again committed dastardly crlmes by a gang of unprincipled rogues who are acting as lackeys, cappers and tools of a wiant monopoly that seeks to control the republican party with one hand, while it throttles the democratic party with the other, and compals the people to vote for tools and cappers of a great corporation that robs the people of many millions every year to enrich the greatest stock gambler on the American continent. The same men charge that I must have climbed a ladder, entered a room by the window or through the roof at 11 o'clock in midday to get into a room that is open to every citizen. The same crowd that has warred on me for years is here to-day. At this time, when I am striving to protect this city, or,rather,therepublicans of the county, gainst impurities at the primaries, they are endeavoring to harrass me with a _malicious prosecu- tion. The district attorney as- serts that the abstraction of a book that is 0ld and worthless becaute a copy is on file at the clerk’s office, is a greater crime ihan the firing of a house. We have been told that the governor of this state has selected a man loyal, firm and honorable for the position of registrar. Governors don't always select that kind of men. The best evidenca that this is true is my standing here to-Cay defending myself { on a charge that would not Lave been proferred by any decent man. The district attorney is certainly not acquainted with our registration laws. Under the law a new registration is to be made each year. He is to open | an entirely new register in September. On that register he is to place only | the names of voters known to him personally as residents of his ward and none other. Look at the law and o that ought to remove him from office. | Last fall this registrar was not in the 4city 8t the time he should have at- tended the duties of his office. He returned a few days before election hastily made up his lists and swore that those on the list he knew to be the residents and voters of his ward. A casual glance at his register shows that hundrods of names ought not to be there. Here are some of the samples: Will Brown lived in Weat Omaha for two years, Pat O. Hawes hes lived in this ward eighteen menths, Benj. Ittner dead two yeaxs, Joe Lies living in West Omaha, Dr. Matthewson, who has been a res- ident of Lincoln four years; Jack Morrow, dead nearly five years, and still all these men are on register of the Sixth ward, and Mr. Allen swears they live there and vote y | there. 1 think it would be & good thing for Douglas county to have the gov- ernor appoint s registrar who, when the law requires him to make a new register, will not fill it in with the names of dead men. What is an cath tosuch a manas that? Suppose that book had been actu lly stolen and carried away, what loss would it be to the people of the state of Nebraska! The registration had been closed and published in_the offi- cial paper of the sity, and the list was also on filein the county clerk’s office. What great calamity would there be to the city of Omaha that this old book should be carried off, which con- tained on one side a half of Council Bluffs and half the cemetery on the other? What else is it fit for but to be thrown in the river? ; I went to Mr. Allen’s office to in- quire as to the location of parties who hed been registered. 1asked his per- mission the first day and he granted it. The second day he happened not tobe there and I took the book to anotber office and _had it copied, sim- ply to compare the names of parties, and by that 1 came across so many frandulent pames in that book. We are told there was a malicions and unlawful abstraction; thai means an intentional injury. ~They have shown that I acknowledged that I had the book when asked about it, and that 1 returned it as soon as I could. Is there any malicious intent shown therel Can anybody doubt that the malice is in the prosecution? This man Allen is an individual that was around bilking the merchants of Oma- ha under pretentes that ought to have consigned him to the penitentiary. He claimed that the U. P. was send- ing out thirty thousand copies ot his advertising sheet and the B. & M. compsny ten thousand when the entire edition_could be car- riod under my arms. It is made up of exchanges. Yet people wero pay- ing out their meney. Idid not expose himat the time, as I ought to have done, . hecause people might have said. “It is & rival business.” This 1s a frivolous charge that 1o decent man would bring. Is it not an every day occurrence for law- yers to go into Cierk Ijams’ office and take out papersto their offices, where they are first copied and then return- ed!” There fs not a lawyer here who has not committed that ‘‘misdemean- or” atsome time in his life. Tseay it is an outrage ,to bring a man in here, when it is patent to everybody in this court room that this is a political prosecution which is intended to stop me from the labor I have been engaged in. No man can justly charge that I intended to do an injury to the clty, to the stale or to my neighbor. Ido not believe that any jury would find me guilty of a willful and malicious theft upon this testimony. 1If your honcr does 5o find, T can only appeal to a higher coutt. Mr. Ferguson followed in closing remarks, in which he disclaimed any personal fecling and regretted that political fights should be brought into court; his daty was to prosecute on complaint. The Court. Mr. Rosewater is a citi- zen hore and is not going. He admits that it was techoical violation of law. I don't think he took the book with any intention to mutilate or use it for any criminal purpose. The object of bail is only to secure his at- tendance. Iam not eitting here to determne his _guilt or innocence in this matter. 1 have nothing more to do than to require him to give me his own recognizange to appear at the next term of the district court if he is required. - Hamburg Figs 25¢ a box.
