The Report of Ieienhart's Lynch1ne
Unfounded..-He Attempts to Break
Jail. &C.

JAIL cxcs
LEXINGTON, LIE Sueur Co. Nov, 25.
To tie Editors of tie Ninnesotiam:
have noticed a statement going the rounds
of the press that Rienhart, the supposed muir
derer of Bodell has been lynched by the peo-
pie of LIE Sueur County. There is no truth
in it, Rienhart is now in the Jail that was built
by the citizens of this place, it being built in
the most thorough manner of solid oak and
iron.
What gave rise to the rumor that he was
lynched is probably owing to the fact that a
number Of Germans from Rice County, hav-
ing been informed that we, the citizens Of
Lexington, were in favor of lynching the pris-
oner, and that they would meet with no resis-
tance from US, came about Is in number
for that purpose, and as soon as they found
they had been wrongly informed, and that
We, as a law abiding people, would not allow
the commission of such an act in our midst,
they returned quietly to their homes, some Of
them having come 80 miles.
Rienhart made an unsuccessful attempt to
break Jail on Sunday night. He succeeded in
twisting apart his hand cuffs and then tried
his utmost to force the door, but found it too
well secured He was Immediately re-ironed
in more secure manner
He still strongly protests his innocence
Knowing well the feelings of the people of this
place and vicinity, would say that they will
defend the prison from Lynch law, and see
that he has fair and impartial trial, which
will come off next March. S.

commencement of the St. CrOix and SUI
pcrfOr Road.

The taking out of the first shovel full of earth
on the ST. Croix and Superior road, was perform
ed near Hudson, on the 18th, amid much cere-
mony and with great demonstrations OF rejoic-
ing by the people of Hudson and that neigh
borhood. John Lockwood, the President OF the
company, handled the shovel and made speech
setting forth the great advantages of the road
which, in his opinion, consisted mainly in connect
that section of country with ports on Lake Supe-
rior giving them a nearer communication with the
east than could be had by the way of Milwaukee or
Chicago. Other speeches were made, and In the
evening the City Hotel of Hudson was illuminated,
and dancing, champagne and speeches were the
order of the evening. We trust the time is not
distant when they will be enabled to celebrate the
remoy of the last shovel full of dirt in connection
with the work Nlwaukee Free Democrat.
The last shovel-full thrown out, will GER
tainly be the most interesting spectacle. This
road, whose commencement is thus celebrated,

Showing a clear majority Of 81 votes
against the Construction. This Is doubtless
the sentiment of the almost entire body Of
Taxpayers and Property Owners, as well
those who voted as those who did not vote.
If the poll had been larger we think the result
would have been the same. The city debt
is rightly deemed already sufficiently great :
and that it is time stop was put to its
accumulation. The City Council should take
the hint, and stop every expenditure not alb
solutely necessary. 1t is an evidence OF re-
turning sanity when the people refuse to bor-
row any more money!
