satisfied when say that have agreed to
take it aud not 60 home when you expect
me but will go and work for man by
the name of Howe in Mellette, $. D., for
$40 month and board. I can stay there
as long as I want to but, If do not like
the place. will go home after have
earned enough money to take me there.
am going to start Saturday for Mellette.
l hope that you will not be disappointed
when you hear that am not coming
home. But will 60 soon-C Christmas,
perhaps. I hope you are still teaching
the children about Jesus and his love.
I am still trying in my weak way to servo
God. and my pay tor it is by endless

tically without meaus for winter support.
The sympathy of the officers of the law
is with these debtors, but duty prevents
any other action than the law requires
Most of the wheat fields are yielding only
six and eight bushels to the acre; and
there is nothing left in some cases to pay
any debts. One machine firm has been
particularly hard this year, and others
are reported as after the last dollar, and
kicking because farmer has no more.
The men who have come here and taken
the fortunes of the country. good and
bad, deserve better fate, and the corpo.
ration that coldly snches man at this
time deserves general condemnation.
Farmers have worked hard, and their
cracked hands and labor, worn persons
show that no lack of industry on their
part has caused them to be behind in
their usual payments. THIS is no time to
put on the screws, and farmer has a
right-a natural-born right--to resist any
PERSONS attempt to take away from his
family all they have to live on. The rich
creditor can get along, but in many cases
the poor debtor can't, without suffering.
He should protect himself, and the public
will say he Is doing right where he re-
tains by any means enough to buy pro-
visions and coal for the winter.
jamestown Capital In ordinary cases
of debt the exemption law steps in and
protects the debtor against having his
living and means of support all taken
away from him, but the chaltel mortgage
knows no restraint except the full limit
of its demand. 1t is true the mortgagor
voluntarily valves and relinqulshes his
| rights under the exemption law, and it is
unfortunate for him that he can do 80,
but ordinarily no person expects the
chattel mortgage which lie gives to be
forcclosed 1t is morally wrong for mort
gagecs to press the collection Of debts
now, when it is harder to earn and pay 81
than it was to pay Sc few months ago,
and public sentiment ought to frown
upon such attempts. We do not believe
there IS an attorney or an officer in this
county-we should hope there is not
who would not prefer to f0rego the fee
and see the time extended to the debtor
rather than to see him stripped of his
summers work, and perhaps his teams,
and left in such Il shape that he would
have to get out of the country with his
family or become county charge. There
are already some just such cases, and
there will be many more If the plan of
forcing collections ls pursued as 1t has
been begun. The citizens who are here
10 live permanently cannot afford to see,,
without protest, farmers who want to
stay here and develop the country and
make homes for themselves and their
families driven Out by having their living
and means of support taken from them
by mortgages, and this protest should
he made in way that will be felt.

POstOflicc RObber Caught.

Postolllce Inspector Mercer has beer
doing good work In ferreting out the
chief plotter and most skilled burglar
of the gangs who have riiled so many
postoilices in Iowa during recent
months. Last week he captured In
Lincoln, Nebr, a man by the name of
Baxter, who has numerous aliases, In.
Guiding Fox and Wheeler, and who is
also an expert diamond thief, and was
wanted in Council Bluffs for stealing
diamonds in 1890. When captured
Baxter carried set of burglar tools
and some powder. His shoes and n bit
taken from him were brought TO Au.
dubon last Friday, and while his shoes
just fitted the tracks made on the night
of the burglary, the bit exactly filled
the hole bored In the safe door. Baxter
Is now In the Council Bluffs jail
and will have n preliminary hearing
July Bird. He Is an old offender, skilled
In the arts of evasion and defense, and
with strong counsel will fight the case
to the end, Much credit Is due Inspec.
tor Mercer for running him down.
During three days chase the inspec.
tor was within twenty minutes of his
man, and finally captured him In no.
torious dive.

Investigate the Poor Farm.

| The official reports of the manage.
ment OF the Audubon county poor farm
have been very meager and unsatisfac.
tory Tor the past year. Indeed when
the transfer was made from the pre-.
yious manager to the present incum-
bent there was no public statement
submitted of its expenses and earnings
for the preceding year. Supervisor
Matthias, supervisor, acted as a self an
pointed committee to install the new
steward, and received pay for doing it,,
1t may be presumed that this work of
installation included taking an invoice
OF the farm property, receiving report
of the past years Stewardship and sub
uniting report to the public, During
that year the salary of the steward was
Sl75 in excess Of the amount asked by
competent men for the same service.
and that premium ought to have Sc
cured superior service, as indeed IL may
have done but as yet no report of that
stewardship has been submitted to the
Judgment CT the public,
AT the present time there are rumors
current OF shortages In personal pro.
polty OF the farm, which are very dam.
aging III true, but it is unnecessary to
specify them until those in authority
have opportunity to investigate and re-
port. In view of these conditions 1t is
simply matter Of justice to the stew
ards, past and present, and to the pub
lie, that non-partisan committe com
posed of disinterested men be appoint
ed to Investigate the poor farm man

public. Ex-Supervisors Armstrong,
Minser and Bickelhaupt appointed such
a committee three years ago and that
report was published TO the satisfaction
OF the public. Without approving or
denying the current rumors of short.
ages, the public may very reasonably
expect that a committee may be APP
pointed to investigate and confirm the
rumors or yindicate the mapagars ent.
The board will he in session July LIST,
and can name such committee at
