DISTRICT COURT. 80
Cases Dismissed and Motions
s.n s Granted. 4

District court convened last Tues
day, B. r. Webber, presiding, Fred.
L. Warner clerk, E. A. Pease sheriff
and w. 7. Eckstein as stenographer.
The first hours Of the morning after
nine O'Clock were occupied in the call
of the calendar, and as usual, all of
the tax enforcement cases against the
Winona & St. Peter Co. we're contin-
ued. The case of the Northern Trust
Co. as assignee against E. D. French
was settled on stipulation, while the
case of the Flour City National Bank.
vs.. Jerry Cain was dismissed and the
case of the same bank against A.. T.
Stevenson passed with q probable
judgment ordered against Mr.. Steven
son. zssae a III s17F
The case of j.. Schweinfurter vs.. 81.
G. Schmshl was settled in favor. of
Mr.. sSchtnahl.. It appears that Mr..
Schweinfurter has son who purchas-
ed goods Of Francois & Schmahl and
the old gentleman agreed to pay the
claim. An action to enforce payment
was commenced in the municipal
court and judgment was entered for
over $62 in favor Of Mr.. Schmahl.
After judgment was entered Schwein-
furter through his attorney, w. j. Nc
Leod, asked to have the case opened,
on the ground that he did not under
stand the English language, did not
understand the summons and that he
lost the latter after it was served upon
him. When the case was called Tues
day E. G. Patterson, one of the attor-
neys for Mr.. Schmahl, moved for
judgment on pleadings. The court
heard both sides in argument after
which he granted the motion for judg-
ment, stating that the fact that Mr..
Schweinfurter could neither read nor
understand the English language was
no reason why he should not have
gone to some one or an attorney and
found out what it meant.
When the case of the Board of
County Commissioners agsinAt the
Citizens Bank and bondsmen was cali
ed Mr.. Clague announced that it was
for trial by jury, that the commission
ers gave notice to amend their COM
plant and that the case would prob
ably be settled. ..

Mrs. Anna Osher was settled accord
ing to stipulation on file.

Republican Criticism of Taxed Hides.

According to the protective theory the
imposition of o tax on noncompeting
articles adds to their cost to the con-
sumer This theory would be aptly ex-
emplifed in the proposed duties ON
hides, as the people would be compelled
to pay more for their footwear. 1t is es-
timated that the increased cost of boots
and shoes for one year under the pro-
posed duty would amount to $50, 000,-
900. With free hides our manufacturers
of leather goods have been able to build
np great export trade in footwear. As
Mr.. Blaine said when it was proposed
10 put duty on hides in the law of
1890, ut will yield a profit to the
butcher only-the last man that needs
it. The interests of the tanners and
shoe manufacturers are vastly more
important than the interests of butch
ers and western ranohmen.- Chicago
