PROTECTION OF THE STATE
Asked of GOV. CIough by Jacob
Freund

st. Paul. Oct. 22.-Jacob Freund. an
elderly and wealthy resident of Blue
Earth City, Faribault county, has ap-
piled TO Gov. ClOugh for police prOtec-
ton. He tells n weird story In a pc
tition to the governor, Of alleged perse-
! cution at the hands of reputable citi-
zens of Blue Earth City. He goes so
far as to claim that they have twice
tried to kill him, and failing. have
made three attempts to aus not only
his death. but that of his family, by
setting fire to his home. He asserts
that the authorities Of Blue Earth
City turn a deaf ear to his appeals Cor
protection and, fearing that he will he
murdered. he asks Gov. ClOugh TO
intercede in his behalf. From the allie
cations contained in Mr.. Freund's pc
tition, it appears that he claims he is
being made the victim OF q secret or
g]aniZation. composed of twenty-one
persons, who, he alleges, have sworn
TO take his life. Whether or not this
is true, II, nevertheless, appears that
Mr.. f'reund's life has been made mis-.
cradle by systematic persecution ever
since last spring. Mr.. Freund is be-
ing prosecuted because, il is alleged,
he caused the death of a young woman
at Blue Earth City and has since been
released on bail and stands a chance
of being acquitted of the terrible
charge preferred against him.

veins are small, at least on the surface,
and as no considerable development
work has been done on them IL IS I'M
possible to say how they viii turn Out
as depth is gained.
In the spring of 1882, Ole Johnson,
Swedish prospector, located claim up
on vein about one inch in width from
which he received returns from assays
ranging from $50 TO $500 TO the ton. He
was an industrious man and gifted
with indomita5le perseverance though
like most prospectors, he had very Mt
tie capital with which TO carry on the
business, during the winter months ne
would seek employment 10y which he
could earn sfficient to carry him
through the summer. For two years he
labored alone, following the vein with
a shaft through the hard rock, drilling,
blasting, filing the bucket with the
broken rock and then climbing 10 the
surface and windlassing the full buck
ct TO the top. 1t was weary work and
slow In the month Of October. 1884.
his funds became exhausted and he
went to Ouray to get work in the mines
but had not been there long before he
contracted pneumonia and died.
No one supposed the claim to be Of
any value, but where the ore came from
that was strewn so plentifully over the
dump was always a mystery TO those
who saw il as the vein for nearly thirty
feet below the surface could be seen in
the shaft, and it was in no place over
an inch wide.
Three years ago Johnson's widow
came out from Kansas accompanied by
an uncle from Butte. Mon, who was a
practical miner. They examined the
property and decided 1t would not pay
TO work and returned home. A number
o. others have put stakes up at differ
ent times on the strength OF the GRE on
the dump, but as they could not dis
cover where it came from they aban-
doned Il.
4 short time since Eli Davis of Pueblo
began prospecting in this vicinity and
seeing the ore on the dump Of the old
shaft he began a quiet investigate
and finally located the claim. He clean
ed out the shaft and discovered that
three feet of rock and dirt had been
packed into the supposed bottom of the
shaft. After removing this he found
that it had rested upon a solid platform
Of large tinlbers which had been built
into the shaft Upon their removal he
saw. much to his surprise. that the
shaft continued down over ten feet be-
ner of the shaft were eight drills and a
miners spoon showing that it had been
the intention of the owner TO return and
continue work. Upon careful investi-
cation it was seen that the vein sud
denly widened out just one foot below
where the platform had been placed and
running across the bottom of the shaft
was over two feet of solid ore. Mr.
Davis at once left for Pueblo to make
arrangements for prosecuting work up
On the property during the winter. re-
turning Monday last. A small force of
men viii be put at work next week, and
by spring it is expected regular ship
ments will commence. The ore in the
bottom of the shaft assays five and
One-ha1f ounces in gold and 20 per cent
copper. While in Pueblo Mr.. Davis re-
ceived a very fattering offer for an in
terest in the property, which he prompt

Milwaukee, Wis, Nov. Ex-senator
Hill was greeted by an audience Of
about 400 people at his first appearance

The prices of admission to the theater
were too high and that is given as an
explanation for the small attendance.
The audience consisted mainly of old
line Democrats who entertained Sena-

was on the subject of Liberty" it's
underlying idea being that the safest
kind of liberty and government was
that which did not interfere with indi-
vidual liberty and did not attempt to
legislate in matters of personal GUS
toms and habits. II was an elabera-
ton upon A former speech of his deliv-
cred in New York. explaining why he
was a Democrat and why every true
lover of liberty ought to be a Demo-

He spoke at length on the Monroe
doctrine, Of which he showed himself
to be strong adherent, and proclaim

their present struggle for independence
He denounced the alteration of titles,
which was growing in certain quarters
in America and regretted the sending

were full of toadyism for decaying
monarchy and almost ashamed Of their

was defined. Perhaps. because it was
his first lecturing effort. he required
nearly an hour and a half TO make his
talk. Senator Hill was the guest of the
Jefferson club after the lecture. He
was entertained at dinner by prominent
Democrats at leading clubs of this city
and was given an informal reception
by the local press club. At midnight
he left for Minneapolis.
