trate and probable cause -being found!

bond of $50.00. He failed to give
bond and . was yesterday brought -to
this city by Deputy Sheriff W. E. Jones

The story of young-Keel's downfall
ia really pathetic in many ways.. ' He
the only sen of aged parents and
recently. they wrote to him and urged
that he return to the old home and make
their , days brighter by - his presence.
This' he decided to do and his father
sent nim the money to pay the railway
fare. His mother also sent him a box
of food to use on his trip. Friday
morning he was in readiness for de
parture on the afternoon train. Dur
ing the day he was persuaded to take
several drinks of whiskey and became
intoxicated. Later on he spent sev
eral dollars of the money sent to him
to purchase a railway ticket, and
when he began to sober up, realized
that he had not enough money to reach
home.
According to his own statement, he
called, at the home of Mr. Bryant to
collect a dollar owed him and here it
was that he stole the money and watch.
Later on he realized the enormity of
his crime and started to return-- the
stolen articles but was placed under
arrest before he could do so. The
young man is of very pleasing appear

.Washington, July 27 During the laet
few days developments have. been com
ing thick aod fast w the tariff fight and
St the end of the various conferences
held it seemed that another big' taf ff
fight was just ahead and thi t Congress
might be here until the drat or ev n
the fifteenth of September before the
enacomev.
t in the first place, the Senate Demo
crats . in caucus decided to sup
port the Williams substitute sugar bill
reducing the Original duty on that pro
duct 83 1-8 per cent This bill slso re
duces ihs duty on molaases 40 per cent.
and removes the Dutch standard .and
the differential from the Sugar, Tariff
law.; -
Hardly hid the caucus adjourned
when'a plan on the part of the Senate
Standpatters developed whi h was de
signed -to deprive Senator LaFollete
and the Insurgents of the opportunity
fto a't In the conference, on the Wool
bill. This was scented by tb Wiscon
sin Senator and apparently blocked.
The idea of theFenrose-todge Smoot
Republicans was to name three Stand
pat conferences on wool, who were to
recede from the Wool bill passed Thurs
day night and then pass the Democratic
bill aa it originally came from the
House. . The Senate Democrats would
have voted for it, of course, and
enough regular Republicans would have
absented themselves to give the Demo
era's a majority. This sch me would
have given the President an excuse for
vetoing the Wool bill, which he will
not have if the La Follette bill ia final
ly sent to him

' Bryan's Infamy.
i '5Mr. Bryan is going to commit the
unspeakable- Infamy . of trailing " Col.
Roosevelt around the .country, during
the campaign and answering his speech
es. By dealing 'with the inaccuracies
of the only real progressive candidate
and touching him up on. his tariff
r ord and relations with the trusts,
the Nebraskan will further the criminal
conspiracy i of the: crooks in business
and the crooks in politics who nom
inated .WoodroW Wilson at Baltimore.
This act of treason against popular
government provesothat. all his life
Mr. Bryan has been the tool of Wall
street and the servant of the corrupt
bosses, . ; . -.-'.''. ..
Instead of trying to save the Govern
ment, he is trying to beat "the one man
for the job." . He isNa burglar, a thug,
a thief, a robber, a pickpocket and a
