Justice, as personifed in Ace p.
Abell, sat taking its otium cum dig
nitate yesterday morning when Deputy
Sheriff George johnson came In, having
in charge Attorney C. j. Bartleson,
who was under arrest upon q warrant
which specified that he had made GER
tain contemptuous illusions to the
court that were Incompatible with the
reverence that should be maintained by
persons appearing before it. Justice
Abel was calm and dignifed. MI.
Bartleson was subdued, but pleas
ant. Emanuel Cohen, who ac-
companied him in the capacity
of mediator, was iovial, almost hilari-
Gus, the expression of his face seeming
to deprecate any attempt to regard the
case in a serious light.
Mr.. Bartleson stated that his remarks,
profane and otherwise. were applied to
Attorney Num-, and not to the court.
He did not think the court had jurisdic-
ton over the case inasmuch as war
rant had been issued for his arrest which
made it criminal proceeding.
Justice Abel disagreed with him on
both points and ordered that he pay a
fine of $40 for contempt, the amount to
stand as a judgment against him until
paid. Mr.. Bartleson gave bonds and
appealed to the district court.
Good morning, Mr.. Abel.

THE REAL ESTATE MEN.
The State Organization Completed
IA Real Estate and Savings

The State Organization Completed
"A Real Estate and Savings
Company.
The real estate men began to drop in
slowly one by one at the exchange
rooms at the West yesterday morning
at 10 O'clock. The gentlemen were not
very numerous. and when at II o'clock
there were only dozen or fifteen pres
ent, Chairman P. A. McCarty, with
Secretary j. A. Folsom took their seats
behind the official desk, and the group
who had been talking about taxation,
and the committee who, with heads to-
gether, had been investigating "mone y
direct" lowered their feet from of the
backs of the chairs and came to order.
The committee on investigation of
''money direct" brought forth report,
which resolved that the Real Estate
Dealers association form real estate
and loan saving company with capital
stock of S5.000,000. the executive COM
mittee to take the matter in hand and
organize the company and put it in ac-
ton as soon as possible, the head
quarters to be in Minneapolis.
The motion was carried to make the
Real Estate and Financial Register the
official organ of the association. The
Register was happily eulogized by sew
eral members.
The question of taxation in general,
and of taxation of mortgages in partic-
ular, was thoroughly discussed by 0.
A. Bierce, j. N. Hall, j. II. Bartlett
and N. KjeldsOn.
On the motion of G. W. Gage, a reso-
luton was passed to request of the leg
islature laws to relieve mortgages from
taxation, and favoring more strict laws
on assessment of taxes.
The officers for the ensuing year were
elected as follows: For president, P.
A. Mccarthy, Morris; first vice presi-
dent, j. W. Earl, Fergus Falls; second
vice president, N. Kjeldson, Ada; sec
retary. j. A. Folsom, Minneapolis; treas
urer, G. A. Bierce, Winona.
Then the association adjourned, to
meet some time at the call of the presi
dent. Before leaving the room the
members signed the articles of incor-

A NOTEWORTHY CASE.
Tim Dunlap, Who Sued Capt.
Charles May. Sat Down On.

The suit of Tim Dunlap against Capt.
Charles May. the veteran mill man and
steam boat owner, to recover $1,000.
alleged to be due for services rendered
in six years he had worked for the
captain, was ended yesterday morning,
when the jury brought in verdict for
3,700 in favor of Capt May. The testi-
mony showed that during the six years
Dunlap had been with Capt. May, he
had received something over $1,000, or
more than $50 per month, for his
services, while they were really worth
less than that. The jury evidently
could not understand how Dunlap had
the nerve to demand $500 more, or over
$4,000 for his work, and also decided
that he had received 81, 700 too much as
it was, and so brought in verdict for
the plaintiff for that amount, which
now stands as Judgment against Dun
lap. TO say that Dunlap was mad, but
family expresses his condition on learn
ing the result of the jury's deliber-
ations. He roasted his attorney, Frank
Davis, behind his back, and even went
so far as to say that all the evidence
favorable to himself had not been
brought out. not seeming to know that
it was his own fault if il had not. lie
will probably appeal the case. +. A.
Campbell was Capt. Mays attorney.

A Woman Who Sues as the Mis-

James Goodnow, the Weli-knOwn capi-
talist, is made the defendant in some-
what peculiar and sensational action
brought by Miss B. Maude Mariner,
who seeks to recover 81, ,429 IL, with in
terest from Dee. ], 1892. The papers in
the suit were fled several days ago, but
were not made public until yesterday
morning. In her complaint, Miss Mar
iner states that in 1889 she was the mis-
tress of Mr. GOodnow, and in conse-
quence of such relations an illegitinate
fant was named Eva, and is eight years
old. In April, of the same year, Mr..
Goodnow, to make partial reparation.
decided to her lot 10, in block 6 of
Wright's addition, which he had pur
chased of Frank Gale for $1,000. When
he decided the place TO her there were
payments due. These he agreed to
meet and did meet, and also made
some improvements Oh the place,
In January, 1882, he made an agree
ment with her whereby she was to deed
the land back to him and he was to sell
it, giving her all over the purchasing
price that was derived from the sale.
He further agreed TO give her sl5G and
pay her S. week so long as she and
the infant might live. After she had
transferred the property back TO him he
paid her $3.50, and for time paid the IS
per week. Soon after this, she alleges,
Mir. Goodnow sold the place and made
$500 on it. June l. 1882, he stopped pay
ing her the $5 per week. and since then
has paid nothing toward the support of
the child. She charges that he also re-
fused to turn over to her the money re-
ceiyed from the sale of the property.
Mr.. Goodnow has made, through his at
torney, motion to strike out part of
the complaint, but this motion was de-

the time of the old Romans. when the

the time of the old Romans, when the
tax collectors came armed with whips
to make men confess what property
they had. The trouble is now, that you
take mans word for what he
owns. Nearly all the personal prop
erty tax that is collected comes from
the widows and orphans, as the truS-
tees holding their property for them are
generally willing TO state what prop
erty they have charge of. Mr.. Shear
man told number OF humorous stories
showing how different persons evaded
paying taxes. and kept his audience in
good humor by his anecdotes. He held
that it was the experience of all nations
that personal property taxes could
not be collected fairly and
honestly. 1t would be as fair to make
every tenth man in the street pay the
tax than to use the present system. The
speaker held that the more rigid the
tax laws were the more perjury and
fraud there would be.
Suppose you begin to tax houses. said
the speaker. You simply discourage
house-building and drive production OF
houses into something else. Then an
assessor cannot judge anything of the
value of a house by it's appearance. l
defy any one to produce system OF
taxation, except the single tax system.
which will not work an injustice to the
poor man, and which will not cause
false swearing and dishonesty. do not
think 1t necessary to discuss the land
ownership question. [ am Tor just.
equal and proper taxation, and taxation
which will work an injury to no one.
Mr.. Shearman read extracts from
PROF. FOLWELL'S RECENT SPEECH,
and in a gentle, quiet way tore them to
pieces and really made them seem
ridiculous. We don't want what Prof.
Folwell seems to think, said the
and that on land values. Now, think
Prof. Folwell did mean, small thing
in stating that Henry George received
500 for his speech here, for it does not
look well for any man who makes a,
speech to go into personal matters at
all. Land does acquire its value from
the growth of population, and its value
shows how much a man is will
ing to pay for the benefits
of society and good government.
The speaker took up Prof. Folweil's
speach piece by piece and met argument
with argument just trifie stronger.
His sarcasm and irony was something
wonderful, and his frequent hits at the
worthy professor We''" We'll received.
He held that where AK vas placed on
the annual rental I,.e of land it
placed the tax on personal property at
the same time, and that was
what was wanted. Ii a reform
was to be made ne wanted it to be made
at once and have it complete. once for
all. Long drawn out agony was not
beneficial to any business men, and for
that reason he advocated speedy re-
form. He did not think that the single
tax plan would come into general usage
to- morrow, but he wanted to see it
come, although he had large amount
OF his means in wild lands, for he con-
sidered that it would greatly increase
the value Of his other lands.
