Are Bitter Against Him.

Fargo, N. D., Nov. 26.-It is reported
from Helena that Attorney General
Haskell, of Montana, will bring suit for
criminal libel against Aaron Hirsclh-
field. It is likely the present case will
be brought to speedy termination.
The evidence on behalf of the plaintiff
will probably be concluded today.
Hirschfeld's friends fear trouble to
him and wish to get away as soon as
possible. Although Mrs Hirschfeld APP
peared in Fargo for the first time last
week, and the evidence on behalf of
the plaintiff only has so far been pre-
scented, the feeling against Hirschfeld
has grown so bitter that he is insulted
on the streets and denounced in public
interviews. 1t is feared this feeling
will eliminate in an open demonstra-
ton. SO extensive has this sentiment
grown that there are even muttered
threats against the court if the public
Interpretation of justice is not melted
out. The defense has no witnesses, be-
ing without funds to pay the expense
of their coming to Fargo. Their testi-
mony is contained in depositions, which
will require several days reading.
