did not accept the demands as published.
The committee who presented the paper dis
tinctly understood that there were several
things that could not accept. We have
always acted in the spirit of most of the de-
mands made, as experience has taught us
what is good for the employer is good for the
employe. 1t is necessary that both should
prosper to keep up that proper interest both
should have for the other. We have no

tend to have any if we can honOrably avoid

$500 for assaulting her. On the morning of
the day the tragedy took place Mr.. and
Mrs. Spaulding had hadhot words over Mrs.
Spauldlng's conduct with Andrews. who, it
is alleged, was too familiar with her. When
the case opened Spaulding sat behind his
counsel, idly turning the leaves of a North
western Reporter, now and then casting his
eyes around the room, and gazing calmly at
the audience. He was neatly dressed i'm

in black, sat at his left. her face furro wed

sister sat at the side of her mother, wear

her fine figure off to good advantage. Her
time was taken up, when not weeping. with
casting coy glances at different persons and
half-smiling at one OF two young lady friends

fruitless. She seemed as if in dream; as

THIS CASE
is an old one, and has once before been in
the courts, when Spaulding was found
guilty of murder and sentenced to be
hanged. On June 1, 1885, Spaulding was
indicted by the grand jury of Wright
county for the murder Of Charles A. Wash
burn. the constable Of Monticello, who was
shot Oct. 10, about o'clock in the evening,
while attempting to arrest Spaulding at the
residence of Mr.. Konkler. Spaulding was
tried at Buffalo, Wright county, pronounced
guilty Of murder and sentenced to be
Hanged, after being confined in the Henne-
pin county Jail five months. On an appeal
to the supreme court the verdict was set
aside and new trial ordered. A change
of venue to this county was Sc
cured, on the ground that any jury
which could be impaneled in Wright
county would be prejudiced and would
convict, no matter what the testimony.

evening of Oct. 10, 1884, Constable Charles
Washburn went to John Konkler's resi-
dence in Monticello with warrant for the
arrest of Spaulding, who was charged with
shooting at Albertus Andrews in the town
of Otsego short time previous. He went
to the house, and Spaulding came to the
door. Washburn called upon him to throw
up his hands and surrender, as he was
under arrest, when Spaulding, it is claimed,
pointed revolver at Washburn and fired.

and causing his death Oct. 80.
THEORY OF THE DEFENSE.
Spaulding does not deny the shooting,
but gives this version of it: He thought
Washburn. whom he could not sec plainly
in the dim light, was Andrews, with whom
he had had the difficulty and that he had
come to attack him, and as he saw re-
volver in the mans hand did the shooting in
self defense. He says he had left the Kon-
kler residence and had gone but few steps
when the man jumped in front of him,

When Granville l.. Spaulding, charged

called in the district court yesterday morn
ing, deep silence settled down upon those
present, and for moment every one APP
peared to realize the Importance of the case
about to come up for consideration. A
mans life was at stake and the audience
knew that men have been hung on less
evidence than there is against Spauldng.
AS Spauldng entered, cleaning handouts
upon his wrists, many a curious glance was
east at him and many speculations as to his
guilt or innocence INDUCED in. The work
of selecting jury occupied about
two hours and was the same old
