One or two organs of misrepre-
sentation in this county are trying
to make it appear that Bryan is
responsible for an article which
appeared in the Omaha World Her
aid in 1892, speaking disparagingly
of the old soldier. For the edifica-
ton of these organs of misrepre-
sentation we will state that in 1902
the World-Hcrald was run by gold
standard outfit. Mr.. Bryan was not
connected with the paper until 1894.
But the organs of misrepresenta-
ton will be very careful not to
make correction.

London, Oct. 5.-The World cor
respondent examined today a file OF

statement in an editorial in its

Sunday Closing.

Considerable discussion has been
occasioned in the city the past week
anent the proposition made to close
the saloons on Sunday. Many have
contended that this would ruin those
doing business in the wet goods line
in this city while others, and the
greater majority Of the citizens are in
favor of the Sunday closing for the
simple reason that the state law
EXPLICITLY says nointo1icating liquors
shall be sold on Sunday.
Those who have taken iniatory
steps towards this end say it must be
done and no doubt it will be if it
must. The Finnish Temperance So
ciety have petitioned the city council
to that effect and with the assistance
of several other citizens the saloons
in all probability will be closed in the
near future, on Sundays.
The saloon keepers themselves, to a
large extent, are perfectly willing to
close on Sundays providing the law is
strictly enforced and every saloon in
town forced TO keep their curtains
drawn. Another potent factor is the
beer trade at the locations. 1t has
been carefully looked into and clearly
estimated that great deal Of illegal
selling is going on at the locations.
Until the saloons are closed on Sun
days this can not be remedied is the
stand taken by many as all concerned
are breaking the law.
What the outcome of this will be is
hard to determine.

Timber Suits.

The United States government has
begun suits against men who have
been cutting timber from government
lands near the Canadian border. A
government special agent was detailed
a few weeks ago to go up into that
country and look up timber depreda-
tions. Special Agent Naff went up
and made the inspection. The tragic
fate of this party viii be remembered
it having occurred only few weeks
ago. Naff and one OF his men escaped
but the others were drowned.
The suits begun are small, but may
be the first of several to be instituted.
One is against Louis, William and
Rufus Stiller. They are accused Of
having 10000 feet OF white pine logs
On the bank of the Rainy river, nine
miles from Kooching, which were cut
on section 1925, land belonging to
the United States government. They
are asked to pay $500 for the logs.
The second case is similar. It is
against Louis Alexander. He is &C
cused Of having $4,000 feet of logs also
on the Rainy river, which were cut
from section 14-7O-24, also government
land

Want a Little Acid.

Joseph Soular and William Verrill

yawning scaffold and if a good oppor-

feat justice by terminating their own
existence says the Tribune.
1t transpired Monday that both are
considering sure, but horrible means
of taking their lives. The facts were
religiously guarded and only through
an accident did they become public
property. The facts are these.
Verrill and Soular occupy cells in

With each Of them is companion

whose cell was formerly occupied by
Charles 81. Stuckey. In the cell with
Soular is an Austrian, also serving a
sentence.
Friday Soular and Verrill exhibited
a strange reticence to all who called
They were quite respondent and their
cellmates could not cheer them up.
About o'clock Soular moved his
chair to table, took a stub of a
pencil and wrote a note. He then
passed it into Verrill who read it.
Glover's eyes happened to center on
the note while it was in Verrill' s
hand and this is what he read:
'Verrill. don't you think it would
be good scheme to get some Of our
friends to smuggle in some acid? I'm
dead tired of this business. Joe
Soular."
Verrill crumpled the note in his
hand, but didn't destroy it and sat
down and wrote reply. The nature
of the reply is unknown, but it un-
doubtedly sympathized with Soular' s
sentiment, for Verrill since the day
he was incarcerated as one of the

SUICIDE
The Body Of a Suicide Found at
the Bottom of Fan
Lake.

Oliver c. Monroe, more Familiarity
known as ''Ollie" Monroe, was found
in Fall lake Sunday with a bullet hole
clear through his head.
On Tuesday, April 15, Monroe left
this city and was never seen alive
again. He had been boarding at the
Oliver hotel and left on that day to
take orders for clothing in the camps,
he being travelling salesman for the
well known Joe Bloom in Duluth.
Friday afternoon while a party of
men were crossing Fall lake and when
they arrived at a place where some
ice had been cut during the week,
they discovered cap lying at the
side of a hole which was at once re-
cognized as having belonged to Mon
roe.
Considering the sudden disappear
ance and the finding of the cap it at
once dawned on the party that Mon
roe in fit of dependency, to which
he was subject, had committed suicide,
or had been foully dealt with. A
search was instituted with the result
that the body was hooked up from the
be tom of the lake last Sunday.
Coroner Vail was notified and he
left for the scene, but nothing was
accomplished as the coroner OF Lake
county was wanted, the body being
found in that county. He was tele-
graphed for and the body brought to
Wallis undertaking rooms. The Lake
county coroner arrived yesterday and
after viewing the body and hearing
the circumstances, decided no inquest
necessary as it was plainly to be seen
that it was clear case Of premeditat-
ed suicide. On his person was found
note book containing the following
entry evidently made by deceased
before committing the rash act. 1t
read: Il have trunk at the fremont
hotel in Duluth, which please ship to
f. n. Monroe, MarGssett. Mich
1t seems as if Monroe was afraid Of
not doing good job and took all
precautions to see that he did not
survive. He chose the place where
the ice was cut from the lake and
placing the revolver to his head,
fired, and fell into the water thus
making a double re thing Of it.
The bullet entered just above the ear
and passed clear through his head.
The eyes were drawn together tightly
as though he was just little afraid
when he fired the shot.
A telegram was sent to the address
given in the book and answer received
stating the party addressed would be
here this evening to take the body in
charge.
Deceased was well known in Duluth
where he had been employed as clerk
in the fremont hotel for a consider
able time. He was taken with ty-
phoid fever and after his recovery
went on the road for Joe Blooms
tailoring establishment. 1t is pre-
sumed that business was slack and
in respondent fit he committed the
deed.
