Mason CITY, Ia, Aug. 14.-Attorney
Welch of Monticello arrived in the city
to assist the defense in the Brown pois-
oning case. G.. H. Rasted, postmaster at
Langworthy, was on the stand all day,
aud is the most important witness the
state has yet produced. Rasted was an
assistant detective in the case, and it was
the effort of the defense TO break down
his testimony by eliminating him by
proving that he was practicing deception
on her. The defense is contesting every
point. County Attorney Clark is very
ably conducting the prosecution.

a more prosperous people than here. He
continued:
''The industrial system under which
all this has been SO grandly accomplished
is now threatened. and the people of this
country are asked whether they desire
this commonwealth to be launched on the
new experiments of free trade, or wheth-
er they desire to adhere to the old land

were found waiting, and Mr.. Blaine was
introduced to them by. Nh. Graham, as
the 'sgreat champion of the rights of
labor and the most distinguished citizen
of the United States"

plause subsidized, said:
Thanking my friend for his somewhat
