MAPLETON ITEMS.

MAPLEToN, Dec. 1.-THE Union
church of Medic was dedicated last
Sunday. Rev. McAllister, of the
Congregational church, conducted the
services, assisted by Rev. Kruntz,
pastor of the United Brethren church
at Beaufort, and the pastor, Rev.
Lindsay of the Medo church. The
church building is a modest and I'M
assuming edifice, situated in one of
the most prosperous sections of the
county, and surrounded by Medo's
most substantial farmers, being built
on Mr.. Robert Wards, ST., farm. Its
trustees are Messrs. Horace Greedy,
John Ward and John Morrow, who
are guarantee of it's sound financial
condition. 1t is easy to predict a
grand future of great influence to re-
suit from it's teachings.
The temperance lecture of Rev.
Joslyn last week was one of the best
of it's kind ever delivered in Maple
ton, and was generally received as
such.

Our churches are preparing suitable

WHILE ferreting out the murderers
of Miss Cling last week, Mayor Eustis,
of Minneapolis, received good deal
of unmerited criticism for the part he
took in the case. Just why this criti-
cism was launched at him is hard to
tell. 1t is hard to believe that in such
a case twas actuated by spirit, of
jealousy, the more charitable view is
that it was prompted by ignorance.
But the mayor knew what he was do
ing. He was well acquainted with
the character of the men he was deal
ing with, and was in position to OBJ
tain information of which his critics
knew nothing, and the results have
justified his course. He had a most
desperate case to deal with, with
which most desperate men were con-
nected, and was obliged to resort to
desperate methods to bring the facts
to light. In view of the results, the
course pursued by Mayor Eustis to I'M
earth the perpetrators of this henious
crime, will be most fully endorsed by
the public.

SIOUX CITY seems determined to
keep in public view, if not in one way
then in another, and has secured the
Indictment, by the grand jury, of a
group of eX-officials, who by a fine
combination robbed the county of
100000. AS they all worked together
it was hard work, if not impossible,
while they were in Office, to detect their
shortcomings. 1t may be said that
this was case in which the people
were not too blame, yet it would seem
that closer scrutiny in selection of
candidates ton thefpart of the people
would have raised the standard of
honesty among the officials and have
made it impossible for such a collision
to have been successfully worked.
Some system ought to be devised by
which such a combination would be
impossible, or if once made would be
easily detected.
