ST. PAUL, Nov 23.-The Pioneer
Press has received 8 communication
signed "Voice of Justice from Pepin
county, Wis, the scene of Maxwell's
crimes and death at the hands of lynch
ers, in which it says il was a brutal
murder; men jumping on the face of
Maxwell. The writer says four men
have been lynched and a number tarred
and feathered in that county, four of the
latter victims dying from their treat
ment The writer says that the public
imperiously demand of Gov. Smith the
arrest and punishment OF the murderers
of Maxwell We ask, is there no law to
this state reach out his arm of power
and punish the guilty? l speak now for
eighty brave resolute men. who are de-
even at the risk of their lives. If the
| tect the rights of all men, VIC will. do 1t
without his aid We here, now. in one
voice of eighty law-abiding citizens,
most solemnly swear that if the COVER
nor of Wisconsin does not punish the
alleged officers and mob that murdered
Ed. Maxwell in cold blood, that we will
burn the county scat, court house, Jail,
and every building in the village of
Durand that shelters one of the alleged
| mob; but as for Under Sheriff Knight
We will take care of him ourselves, and
save the law of justice and expense.
Lon Williams is now on his way to
Durand to meet the same fate Of his
brother, but he will not be the only dead
man there on that day.

Jakey Admire, of the Usage City Free

boom. But we only counted six pages
instead of ten. We might remark that
Jake is at home in a newspaper office.
He ought never to do anything but print

rhanEsgIvIn@ in Em0or,a

The beautiful weather Thursday add
ed greatly to the enjoyment of thanks
giving and did much to stimulate q
sense of gratitude in the hearts of our
people. Business was very generally
suspended, and the freedom from its
cares was enjoyed in many different
ways by those whose busy lives enable
them to appreciate the value of an &C.
casional holiday. The young folks,
many of them, improved the opportun-
ity offered for driving, calling, skating,
ETC.. and managed TO put in the day
quite pleasantly.
The dinner given by the ladies of the
Congregational church, at Whitley's
Opera House, was q noteworthy feature
of the day, and was very literally pat
rOnized.
Persons of devotional tendencies were
instructed and entertained by Elder
Lott, of the Christian church, who
preached very excellent discourse in
the Presbyterian church on "Progres-
sive Development" in the treatment of
which the following central ideas were
elaborated:
First-In the unfolding of the scheme
of redemption it was necessary that man
might know the curse of sin and become
willing TO be saved.
Second-God made the Jews the in
struments through which He might reach
other nations, whether in captivity or at
| home.
Third-Christ came just when the
world was looking and longing for him
Fourth-Jerusalem became the center
OF light; Rome the center of darkness,
religiously speaking.
Fifth-The center of light has changed
from Jerusalem. Palestine and the east,
to the new world and the United States.
Sixth-Our nation is strong because of
its homes. We are all brothers
Seventh-TwentY years ago we were
divided. By the death of our president
we are un tied.
Eighth-We are the source of light to
other nations.
Ninth-Our life depends for its con-
tinuance on the publication of the ma
tional heart.
Tenth-The full corn in the ear is for
US to help and enjoy.
The services were we'll attended, and
the. sermon is spoken of in flattering
terms by those who gave ear to its truths.
The day taken all together was hap.
Ply one for EmpOria and passed off in "A
very satisfactory manner.

Ledger: Old Volmer has a new de.
vice to beat the temperance law. Glasses
arc set on q wheel in a close partition,
and persons wishing a mug OF beer de-
posit the change in the mug, the wheel
turns, and the fellow "behind the scenes"
takes the change and turns out the beer.
If whisky Is wanted the money goes in
to whisky glass, and the glass goes in
and out again with the desired beverage,
while the man who fills the glasses can
not be seen. A party Who was in there
the other night with "a travelling man
from Chicago" expressed desire TO sec
the operator in the rear. when the trav'
cling man said he could fetch him. TAX
ing up very small section of hose that
happened TO be handy, by a simple twist
of the wrist he turned a stream of water
against the partition. 1t had the de-
sired effect. Volmer rushed from be.
hind the partition and excitedly in,
quired: "WhO is doing like dot in my
house ="

Hort,cnltnraii society.


The Lyon County Horticultural Soci-
ETY. held a meeting at the office of pres
ident Milliken on Saturday, November
18th, at 1 80 p. m.
The near approach of the 10Th annual
meeting of the State society, which
takes place at Lawrence, December 9th,
and continues days, gave occasion for
the discussion of the representation of
Lyon county at that meeting.
1t was deemed best to hold a general
meeting of the Society at some cOnven-
lent place before the time, to discuss
more fully what could be done toward
an exhibition Of fruit from the county.
In view Ofthi fact meeting was called
for December LIST, at p. m, at Central
School House in Fremont township.
The eastern part of the State is worse
off than Lyon county for fruit this year,
and we are bad enough, so that the
show of fruit does not promise to be
very grand.
This Society feels like doing little
something to help out in this very I'm.
favorable year.
If the evening should be pleasant the
meeting at Central will be a very pleas.
ant one, and quite q number Of able
speakers will be invited.
