MR., EDLUND DISAPPEARS.
The President of the Minnesota
Mining CO. Not Seen
Since the Fair.
Employees Have Not Seen Hamlet
Walk the plank for Sew
en- Weeks.

Where is Alfred Edlund, President
of the Minnesota Gold Mining & Re-
fining Co. of Delhi?
That question has been frequently
asked during the past week and no
satisfactory answers have been re-
turned. On the other hand rumors
are coupled with the question in effect
that Mr.. Edlund has flown and that
nearly all of the large crew of laborers
at the mine have not received their
wages for the past seven months
wages alleged to have been sent by
express to Edlund and never paid out
to the men.
H. r. Owen, one of the principal
stockholders in the enterprise, and the
alleged representative of the VanDus-
en- interests, was at the mine last Fri
day and Saturday. He issued instruc-
tions and informed the men that on
his return to Minneapolis he would
make the necessary arrangements for
their salaries. He ordered work pros
ecuted vigorously. Owen returned to
Minneapolis Saturday. He had made
arrangements for taking some fine in
struments alleged to belong to Ed
lund with him. PHI. johnson, with
whom Edlund boarded, was about to
attach the box for his board. Owen
told johnson that if he would desist
he would see that he got his money. :
"Is it fact that Edlund has left
without paying the men money sent
to him for that purpose?" was asked
of MIR. johnson on last Monday.
II don't want to talk about Edlund
now," was the reply. "After get set.
tied with him I will tell you a great
deal more than people think I know
"Where do you think Edlund has
gone to!
II don't know; I understand that
he has left here for good and that his
interests have recently been bought
up by other members of the company
I also hear that he has gone prospect
ing in British Columbia"
That Mr.. Edlund has sold out his
interests and retired from the com.
pany seems conceded on all sides
This fact, however. seems to be the
foundation for greater work at the
mines. Only Saturday last four car
loads of coal were received for winter
use and new machinery and material
was taken from the depot to the mines
on Monday.
The work seems to be in charge
of Expert Field. Mr.. Field, as is
well-known, came here from Colorado
for the VanDusens and appears to be
strictly on to the business.

WANTS $4,000 ALIM0Ny
Jim Ho1born's Wife Sues for a Di.
vorCe and Wants Part
of His Purse.
Redwood People Will Remember
Mamie e-Blake.6erraghty
HOlbOrn.

Mrs. Mamie Blake-Gerraghty-Ho
born has commenced an action for di-
vorce from James F. Holborn and
asks for single allotment of alimony,
amounting to $4,000. 1t is under
stood that the grounds for the action
are desertion and cruel and inhuman
treatment.
Holborn is now in North Dakota,
where he has been ever since last
spring looking after collections and
other business matters. The fact of
the action having been commenced
appears to have been brought to this
city by a letter from him to one or
more friends and to w. L. Pierce, who
has attended to more or less legal
bust less for Holborn.
Mrs. Holborn is supposed to be re-
siding at St. Cloud, where her parents
and brother are residing and hence it
is probable that the action was COM
menced in the district court for Stearns
county, where the same will probably
be tried. It is understood that the
legal firm of which Dan. w. Bruckart
is at the head has taken the case for
Mrs. Holborn.
Holborn is not opposed to his wife
having a divorce but he is decidedly
opposed to her taking $4,000 or any
portion of that amount from him. He
will resist so much of the action stout
ly and will probably subpoena good
portion of the people of Redwood
Falls as witnesses in the action.
tits also given out that Mrs. Hol-
born through her attorneys has levied
claim against all of the property in
his name and that she will claim her
share of the same in order to make up
the $4,000 alimony asked for in the
proceedings. At the present time the
only known property in this city be-
longing to Holborn is the residence
now occupied by G. Fred Thompson,
on which there is mortgage, which
Holborn long ago desired to take up
but which the mortgage refused to
turn over on account of the interest
investment.
The readers of The GAZETTE are too
well-known with the circumstances
and Redwood career of all parties con-
nected with the case to warrant it's
repetition. They will recall Mr.. and
Mrs. Gerraghty's first appearance on
the streets, their fruit stand expert
ence, the dosing of Gerraghty with
whisky by young Blake in order to
get Gerraghty's property, the charge
of alleged arson, afterwards disproven,
against Gerraghty, the coming OF Hol-
born,his meeting with Mrs. Gerraghty,
the action for divorce from Gerraghty,
the marriage Of Holborn to the di-
yorced woman, the living together for
short time, the separation, Holborn's s
bold play for the diamonds and other
personal effects taken by Mrs. Hol-
born, and now the divorce proceedings
again. The romance will end tenn
porarily with the result of the divorce
proceedings.

SprfngyiIIe.

At Springville the people turned out
in force regardless of political belief to
hear the address read. After hearing
it the adoption was unanimous. Old.
gray headed men felt young again and
swung their hats and yelled, that is
the correct doctrine" All those who ia
vored the adoption of the address was
asked to rise to their ferl and every
person in the house with possibly two
exceptions) rose as one person and
tremendous burst of applause did then
and there convince the world that they
stood by those words contained in the
address. After this Hon. a. Q. Smoot
interested the audience with review
of the political doings in Utah and the
nation. The speaker said the Rel ubli-
cans are afraid of the truth and are
always hunting for the opposite. 4 GER
tain rantankerous Republican was
there who was known to be using the
remarks of Joseph T. Smith in the
interests of his party, was indirectly
called to time and it is said really
blushed for shame when he was shown
up as others see him. After the meet
ing adjourned one Republican asked
Mr.. Smoot a question and on being an
swered the poor fellow turned white,
then green and he has not been heard
to mutter sound on politics SINCE.

A PLAIN STATEMENT.
Glaring Faisehoods Told By Re-
publican Stumpers Refuted.

erS Hefuted.
1t has come to the knowledge of the
Democratic state finance committee that
Republican speakers throughout the ter
rtory are making the statements to their
audiences that Judge Powers is to re-
ceive some fabulous compensation for his
services as chairman of the state COM
mittee, and insinuat ting that a conting-
ent promise has been made that large
sum will be paid to him if he carries the
election for the Democratic party There
is absolutely no foundation for nor truth
in these statements. judge Powers ac-
cepted the craftsmanship without promise
or expectation of pay for his services
whether not the Democratic party
should be victorious. We have been per
Sonally cognizant from the first of every
thing connected with the finances of the
campaign, and characterize these state
nents as absolutely and unqualifiedIy
false and foundationless in every particu-
lar; as are also the statements of a
similar nature which have peen made by
republican Stumpers that the Democrats
are in possession of a Doodle campaign
fund of enormous proportions. The truth
is that at no time, from the beginning of
the campaign up to the present has there
been sufficient funds in the hands of
the finance committee with which to de-
fray the legitimate current expenses of
the campaign for printing, canvassing ard
transportation for speakers.
The books of the committee and the
treasurer, Elias A. Smith, are at all
times open to the inspection of all Dem
ocrats and vouchers are preserved for
every expenditure made.

rallied there. and the scene. was a
lively one amid the constant firing of

The Democratic society of Grants
vile met in city hall according to ap
pointment. A large and enthusiastic
gathering of representative citizens
Of both parties were present The adj
dress to the people of the Democracy
of Utah as framed by the state con-
vention at Salt Lake City on October
%, 1895, was read by Thomas Williams,
acting secretary, and very attentive
ly listened to by everyone present.
At the conclusion of the reading the
following resolutions were offered by
W. J. Robinson:
Whereas, the Democratic society of
Grantsville, in mass meeting assem-
bled the 31st day of October, 1895, after
listening attentively ito the address is
sued by the mighty voice of Democracy
through its state convention in extra
ordinary session at Salt Lake City on
October %. 1895, with a full realization
of the gravity of the situation hereby
declare
First-That we accepted in good
faith the declarat tons of the first presi-
dency of the dominant church in Utah
concerning the division on national
party lines, and hailed with delight
the statements of the church officials
that the church was out of politics.
Second-In good faith we allied our
selves with the Democratic party, by
doing which we pledged our honor and
integrity to that party and ito the
world, that we were sincere and hon
est in our choosing the principles of
Democracy-the cause of the common
people-and in the division on party
lines.
Thfrd-We have kept that pledge and
mean to keep it and prove to the Democ-
racy of the nation and the world at
large and particularly to the Hon. j.
L. Rawlins that though the heavens
may fall we will be true ito the conf
dence and trust reposed in us.
Fourth-We believe the first duty
of the citizen is to the state. We mean
to exercise that highest gift of Ameri-
can citizenship by casting our ballots
for the party of our choice, and we
deny the right of any organization, set
of men, or individual to dictate to us
in matters political
Now therefore be it
Resolved, That we adopt and ntify
the address of the Democracy of Utah
above referred to as our Declaration
of Independence for the support of
which, while God shall give us power
to battle for the right, we pledge our
selves. our means and our sacred hon.
or. We also pledge ourselves to vote
for statehood, to support the Demo-
cratic nominees, state, county and mu-
nicipal, and to work necessarily for
Democratic ascendency in our county
and in the coming state
After speeches by W. J. Robinson and
w. c. Rydalch, which were enthusiast
tically received and applauded, the
resolutions were unanimously adopted.
After such a demonstra ton, the De-
mocracy of Grantsville can be relied
upon to do it's whole duty.

J. F. Gibbs was the speaker at Sa-
lem and after the reading and adoption
of the address Mr.. Gibbs took up the
question of the button gotten out by
Swaner and the request of Dock King.
Mr.. Gibbs explained this 10 the entire
satisfaction of his hearers. Nothing
but contempt was shown toward
George VI. Cannon for the despicable
trickery he is engaged in to gain a
point. Mr.. Gibbs spoke on local issues
and compared the records of the two
parties in Utah county and in Provo
City. The comparison was not Eatter-
ing to the Republicans and it hurt
them, hurt them so much that the peo-
pies cause, Democracy, VIII triumph.

Mr.. D. c.. Dunbar, Chairman Democ
ic County Committee:

Salt Lake City, Oct 81, 1895
Mr.. D. G. Dunbar, Chairman Democrat
ic County Committee:
Dear Sir:-In response to your notifi-
cation to the effect that l had been
challenged by Mr. c. A. Short, the cam
dldate of the Republican party for the
office Of the county superintendent of
schools, for which I am the nominee
Of the Democratic party, to discuss the
question, Resolved, That Democratic is
of Greater Advantage Than Republican
Supremacy to the Public School System
of Utah. [ beg leave to state that as
an educator I am unalterably and I'M
equivocaMy opposed to the introduction
of such a proposition into the political
arena.
Educational affairs should. in my
opinion, be kept from the contaminatI
ing touch of political influences, bick-
erlngs and contentious. II is a Demo-
cratic maxim that there should be not
only an absolute separation of church
and state, but that our public school
system should be operated and main
tanned with the utmost consideration
for the welfare of the whole people, re-
CARELESS of party politics or religion.
Had the gentleman signified his desire
to meet me in public debate on issues
exclusively Of an educational or polfti-
cal character. it would have afforded
me unbounded pleasure to have been
more accommodating But, believing as
/ do that no good and much harm
might result from a discussion such as
is proposed. 1 respectfully decline to
become party to it, and relying on
the judgment and discrimination of the
people, am willing to submit the case
for their deciS on.
Respectfully yours,

At lIapIeton.

In Mapieton, in this county, last
night. at the meeting held to adopt
the address and declaration, bishops
counselor opposed the adoption on the
grounds that the declaration and the
speakers did not charge the church
with interference in politics, and said
that no party had a right to dictate to
the church. The other counselor, in
answer, pointed his finger at the first
speaker and said: "Bro. M, you
know, and I know, and the bishop
knows, and every man in this house
knows that church influence has been
used. Bro. M, you know that you
were taken to one side, and I was
taken to one side by men higher In
authority than we, and told that it
was the desire Of the church authorl-
ties that the Republicans gain the
erection last fall and that Frank Can
non be elected to Congress. That is
why this address has been issued, and
that is what we propose to fight to the
END, We wish to separate church and
politics, and it will and must be done"
He said the church had not inter-
tered nor was charged with Interior
ing; but individuals had used church
influence. To the above everyone
present said Amen"

INTO Democratic headquarters yester-
day Some of them were as follows:
