entered the Jail, knoked down the Jail.

and it was only with the force Of half a
dozen men that Howard was dragged
from the bed. A rope was placed about
his neck and he was dragged through
the halls and courthouse yard to a
lamp-post and hung. Ali the men had
their faces blackened and were divided
into squads, each doing an allotted
work without word spoken. After
Howard had been fastened to the post,
the mob departed as silently as they
came. 1t is supposed the work was
done by members Of the vigilance COM

King Kalakaua was formally present

members of the cabinet, Col. Grant,
Gen. Babcock, and Mr.. Lucky, private
secretary, were assembled in full dress
for the purpose Of receiving the King.
On the approach of his .majesty's car

when the Secretary Of State and Col.
Grant, the latter personally represent

and received the King as the

entrance OF the White House, where
the President cordially extended his
hand and received and welcomed the
King, the other members Of the cabinet
standing behind the President up to the

State then introduced the President to
Governor Domer and Governor Kapena.
He then presented the King to the mem

and King shortly seated themselves on
sofa, and the other gentlemen moved at
pleasure about the room, and entered
into conversation with one another.

The Farmers Mutual Fire Insur-

MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 9, Is

! MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. y. 1914.
Ed. Anti MonoPolist:
Much dissatisfaction has long been
felt in this vicinity by the members of
the Farmers Mutual Fire Insurance
Association. in regard to the financial
management of the companys affairs.
The Sherwood investigation only
deepened the feeling. The Patrons Of
Husbandry Of this county became in
terested, and some time last spring a
committee Of three was appointed by
the County Council to investigate the
manner IN which the company's bus
LESS was conducted. The report was
presented and read at the meeting of
the Council in October. A motion was
then made to enlarge the committee and
revis ethe report for the press. Col.
Staples and G. H. Clarke were added
to the committee. AT the next read
ing of the report in the November meet.
ing. it was found to be revised so much
that two members of the original COM
mittee refused to sign it.
The original report represented the
company much more unfavorably than
Sherwood did, and called it the most
expensive company man could insure
in, as we'll as unsafe. And if the bust
ness was conducted in future as it had
been during the year 1873, two years
would exhaust the Company's funds.
For the year 1873 the expense Of run.
ming the company was merely forty
thousand dollars, while the losses were
only twenty-five thousand.
You see the expenses are almost
double the loss. At the annual
meeting of the members of the insur.
ance company last January. some ol
the members wished Secretary Nimocks
to present report of the last year
business, before the election Of officers
took place. This he refused to do
And his agents and friends being in the
ascendent, had it all their ow1 way and
reelected him for rouR years.
As the Changers have waited long 70,

likely to wait while longer. | thought
I would enlighten them little. Ont
Of the committee informs me that h.
considers the company so corrupt tina
he should withdraw from it. so soon a.
Mr.. Nimocks returns. And his advica
to others, is that they do likewise. i
they wish to be on the safe side Of thu
question. A GRANeER

SIR: l see, by the Fdrmsr's Union,
that the counties Of Martin, Murray,
Jackson, Cottonwood and Watonwan
are the principal sufferers from the
grasshoppers. | also find, in the ANTI
MoNoPoL1sr, that these counties gave a
majority of 95l against the Anti-Mo-
nopoly candidate for Congress and. in
favor of Dunnell, one of the few salary
grabbers returned to Congress. A
pretty good showing that for their in
telligence.
Now, l don't see how we Anti-Mo-
nopolists can help these Monopolists
wao don't want to help themselves. l
know this may seem hard, but it looks
to me just. Our town Of Wells gave
the Anti Monopoly ticket 103 majority.
This town is wealthy. and we can stand
monopoly and salary-grabs as long as
our brethren on the frontier.
Yours, fraternally,
JAMES ROACH.
While VIC acknowledge the force Of
our correspondent views, we would
remind him Of the christian rule, to do
good for evil, and to forgive our brother
seventy and seven times. The light of
day has not yet reached these benight-
ed counties. They are without news
papers or public speakers; and it is
difficult for halfstarved men to form
just conclusions upon any subject.
They feared to offend the Republican
party lest they would net get relief
from the Legislature. Another year
and these very counties will be found
arrayed upon the side of the Anti-Mo-
nopolists.- ANTI MoNoPoLIsr.
