BIRTHS AND DEATHS.
An Official Report That is Far From
Being Correct.

The births and deaths of Redwood
county for the year 1893, as reported
by the various town clerks to Secre-
tary Hewitt, of the State Board of
Health, are given by towns below. 1t
is safe to estimate that not over one
half of the births and deaths were re-
ported, and the people who neglect to
report them to the proper officer are
certainly derelicit. These statistics
are of vital importance, and citizens of
the county should take an interest in
seeing that a correct report is made
every year. In the city of Redwood
Falls only IL births and 8 deaths we're
reported. Some one is wilfully dere-
licit in duty in allowing such report
to pass to the secretary, as it is GER
tain that there have been double that
number of births, at least, probably
treble. The parents are required by
law to report births, and neglect is a
violation and punishable:

COMMENTS ON THE VERDICT.
Some Press Sayings on Madigan
and the Trial.

St. Peter journal: The verdict was
a surprise.
st. James Plaindealer: There are
others in the State who should keep
him company.
Lac qui Parle Press: Mr.. Madigan
is pretty we'll known in these parts
and this conviction and sentence will
be surprise to all.
St. Peter Herald: Sheriff Blethen,
of Redwood Falls, was in town Tues
day. Interviewed with reference to
the Madigan verdict, he said that he
considered it very sound verdict. Re-
garding the other charges which hung
over Madigan he would say nothing.
Sleepy Eye Dispatch: However
guilty Madigan may be,a stranger who
is ignorant of the evidence in the case,
can not help plying a man A years
old, and good lawyer, who has en-
tangled himself in the meshes OF the
law to such an extent as to merit SO
severe sentence. Poor Madigan! His
is fall indeed.
Arlington Enterprise Madigan is
the man who convicted Rose and
aolden of murder,the one being hung
and the other sentenced for life. 1t
is strange that such an able prosecut-
or as he has shown himself to be
should himself be convicted and
obliged to follow the footsteps of the
murderer, who preceded him to Still.
water only such short time ago. A
stronger reminder of the uncertainty
of life has never come to our notice.
