Salem Register: A party Of six, four
ladies, Mrs. L. E. Stair and May and
Julia Rogers and May Krom, and two
gentlemen, Lee Kriedler and Clarence
Bras started from Mitchell Tuesday af-
ternoon on their wheels. They were
headed for Salem to attend Damon and
Pythias. At Fulton two wheels were
stacked and a livery rig engaged: a few
miles farther and a third wheel was
taken into the buggy; a short distance
farther and Clarence Bras begged for
help and he too was taken into the one
seated carriage. Only two, Mrs. Stair
and Lee Kriedler had the courage and
endurance to face the head wind the

Hamilton BoundsOver.

When the case of Walter Hamilton
was resumed before Justice Mckinley
Monday morning Attorney Grow had an
argument to present to the court ask
ing for the dismissal of his client. on
the ground that the evidence produced
by the prosecution was not conclusive
of Hamilton's guilt. The attorney went
over the evidence pretty thoroughly
to show to the court the weak points in
it but the court denied the motion and
the trial proceeded by the defense call
ing in it's witnesses of whom there were
five. The wife and sister of the defen-
dant were put on the stand and it was
shown by them that Walter came home
at II o'clock, but as the burglary was
committed at 1880 p. m. the evidence
did not seem to clear Walter OF the
transaction. Mr.. Grow made strong
appeal to the court to discharge his
client, claiming that it would be an
outrage on justice to bind him over.
Attorney Mohr did not go into detail
believing that the evidence was suffici.

When it came to the amount of the
bonds Attorney Mohr strongly insisted
that $500 should be the lowest limit bu,

made at a figure which would give the

It will be noticed that the last bill is
for feeding the tramps who have con-
gregated in Mitchell during the month
of July. Over 100 were fed on the 10
cent meal plan but as there seemed to
be no abatement of the tramps the ex-
pense of feeding them was cut down one
third by the city furnishing the victuals.
1t is estimated that there were AIS men
fed during the past month at an expense
of S21.29, which is considered to be
quite reasonable.
The contract with John P. Lindahl,
who is to make the sewer emptying in
to Dry Run, was approved. Several
other matters were brought up for dis
cussion, among them being the Koch
building on lower Main street, which
has been condemned by the council. II
is probable that steps will be taken tc
have the building removed. An ad.
| iournment was then taken until next
Monday evening.

WHEAT CROP ESTIMATE.
A Close Estimate What Our Wheat Crop
Will Amount To.

Will Amount To.
A Pierre special says: A. G. John
son, travelling auditor of the Van Du-
sen Elevator company, is here today,
and makes an estimate on the wheat
crop of the state for this year. His
estimate last year at the beginning of
harvest was very close one. He
places the acreage p1 actically the same
as for the last year. Some fields which
were cropped last year are lying un-
titled this year, but the new acreage
sown will make up that left idle. The
acreage last year was 100000, and
will be very slightly above that this
year. The yield last year was nearly
u bushels per acre, and it will be fully
that this year unless very hot weather
cuts it within the next ten days. His es-
innate for last year was 30,000,000, and
for this year he puts it about the same
or ightly above it. The indications
so far having been for a full crop. He
estimates decrease of 25 per cent. in
the flax acreage, but puts the combined
acreage of wheat and flax in the state
the same as it was last year.

REV. Mr.. JENNEYs LECTURE

Gives an Interesting Review of the Russo
Turkish War.
Those who we're at the Congregation
al church Friday evening heard very
interesting lecture by Rev. Mr.. Jenney
of Chamberlain, who spoke on the main
incidents of the Russo-Turkish war.
Mr.. Jenney is perfectly familiar with
the situation in those countries, having
been missionary to Turkey some
years ago, and aside from his talk on
the war he gave many incidents of q
personal nature which showed the veno-
nous character OF the Turks. In re-
ferring to the manner Of government
he said the officers of the law we're
simply in control of the brigand and
that Justice was administered accord
ing to price. He related many Incl
dents OF how the Bulgarians were op-
pressed by the Turks and that it was
an utter impossibil;ty for them to live
or make any headway under Turkish
rule. Mr.. Jenney's lecture was highly
entertaining from the fact that his i'm
pressions we're gained from personal
observations. Miss Silsby and Miss
Ella Rogers each sang solo and were
accompanied by Mrs. h. G.. Nichols
which concluded the evenings enter
tainment. The songs of the two young
ladies were highlyappreciated and they
did themselves proud.

nature of the crime is taken into con-
sideration. Considerable complaint
was heard on the street in reference to
the action of Justice Mckinley in Civ
ing so much leeway for the possible es-
cape of the prisoner, and the popular
belief was thatthe bonds should be high
enough to prevent the defeat of justice
when 80 much expense had been cre-
ated already in the case. 1t has taken
nearly week TO finish up the examin--
alton of the prisoner, which ought to
have been done at least two days after
the arrest was made.

TALKEDliOF HIS TRIP.
W. H. Helwig Relates Few impress.
sions Gained on His Eastern Trip


Attorney Helwig was found in his
law Office Friday after an absence
of five or six, weeks in the east. A
portion of the time he spent in attend
ance at the meeting of the national
educational association at Buffalo which
was estimated to be one of the largest
gatherings held by the association in
years. Over 10000 outside educators
were there and it was impossible to get
them under one roof to attend the ses-
sions of the association. South Dakota,
he said, had II representatives present
and had very pleasant headquarters.
Being asked as to the political situ-
alton in New York and the east gener-
ally Mr.. Helwig said s. 4 talked with
quite number of prominent democrats
in Buffalo, among whom was an old
schoolmate of mine named Fisher, who
has always been a democrat. Fisher
told me that while he disliked to vote
the republican ticket this fall yet he
would do that in preference to voting
for the amalgated monstrosity of Chi
cago and st. Louis, and I found the
same sentiment among many of the fol-
lowers of true democracy" While
there was unmistakably some free sill
yer sentiment down east he heard bu
very little about it and as for popu-
lism it had no standing in the least
whatever. In reference to the gold
democrats putting up a presidential
candidate Mr.. Helwig fsaid the plan
was not generally endorsed and that
the prevailing idea among the democ-
racy was to have the gold measure win
even if it was necessary to vote the re-
publican ticket.
During the absence of Mr.. Helwig
and family his house was broken into
by tramps, presumably. He said that
they carried away a few clothes, every
piece of jewelry that was in the house
and small amount OF money which had
been left. He said that all the bureau
drawers, trunks and in fact every re-
ceptacle which contained anything
whatever the contents were dumped
out and scattered all over the house.
Mr.. Helwig stated that the trip was
one of thorough enjoyment. His broth
er, Frank. who was formerly superin-
tendant of the public schools of this
city, is now physician and has. lu-
cratiye practice near Buffalo.

DESPERATELY FOUGHT CASE.
1t Takes ali Day and Longer to Hear tn
Celebrated Hamilton Case.

lC IAkes All Day ana Longer Co Hear the
Celebrated Hamilton Case.
1t was presumed that byj Saturday
evening the fate of Walter Hamilton,
the man charged with burglary, would
be settled, whether he would be dis
charged or held to the circuit court.
The case began at 8 o'clock Saturday
morning before Justice Mckinley and
Attorney Grow moved for a dismissal
of his client on the ground that Attor.
ney Mohr had called Walter a niger
and charged him in court with being
''guilty as Turk" After much
wrangling the motion was denied. Mr..
Grow attempted to have his client dis
charged because the two justices. held
a short conference few days previous
in the case. This motion was also de-
MED, and Mr.. Crowi made sone more
effort in the same direction, but it met
with similar fate. With the argu-
ment connected with each motion it
was noon before the case was fairly be-
gun. Mr.. Crow.was very anxious that
his client should have fair show, and
whom he claimed was as innocent as
the angels above. Mr.. Grow demanded
that the testimony be takenE down and
H. B. Hitchcock was called in with his
typewriter and took the testimony.
At 1870 o'clock Mrs. Alexander was
put on the stand and told substantially
the same story as was published in THE
REPUBLICAN recently. Miss Heating
was next on the stand and for nearly
three hours she was examined and cross.
examined on the different phases of the
case. Itwas nearly six o'clock when
Miss Heating was relieved and the state
rested its case. Then came another
heated argument from Mr.. Grow when
the state insisted for the case to proceed
but Mr.. Grow wanted the case ad
journed until Monday to prepare his
side of the case for trial. Justice Nc
Kinley finally decided to lay it over un
til Monday as probably the easiest way
out of the situation.

result the water was shut off. The
