CHARGED WITH PERJURY.
Sam j. Schackle Gets Into the Clutches
of the Law.

Sam j. Shackle, a driller in Gus.
Widell's stone quarry, was arrested
late yesterday afternoon at the instance
of Geo. May, janitor of the city hall
This forenoon Mr.. May procured a
warrant charging Shackle with per-
Jury, and the man was arraigned be-
fore Judge Ogle on the charge. He de-
sired to consult an attorney and was
allowed until tomorrow morning to do
so, when the case will be called again
The bond was fixed at $500, and in
default of it he was committed to the
county Jail The charge is an indict-
able one.
The charge made against Shackle is
that in procuring license on Monday
to wed Miss LYDIA Oglesby he made
affidavit to the fact that he had no
wife living, whereas the truth was
that he had a wife and child.
When seen at the city hall today,
Shackle said to a Free Press reporter
that he had no intention to marry the
girl until after he had procu red di-
vorce from his wife, who, he said,
left him four years ago and was at
Lewiston, Mimi, the last that he
knew of her whereabouts. He denied
that he had intended to marry Miss
Oglesby and secure a divorce from his
first wife afterwards He said that he
told Miss Oglesby of his affairs before
Mr. May took the matter up, and that
she agreed to wait for him to get a
divorce.
Mr.. May is an uncle of the young
lady, who is only sixteen years of age.
Miss Oglesby is a daughter of Jack
Oglesby, who formerly worked for
the city, and her mother is Mrs. w. S.
Goodrich. The latter gave her writ
ten consent for her daughters mar
riage Shackle is thirty eight years of
age, and came to the city last year,
boarding for a time with Mrs. Good
rich.
1t is claimed that a young soldier
now in the Philippines desires and
expects to marry Miss Oglesby, who is
an attractive young lady.
Rev. S. D. Works has interested
himself in the young woman's behalf
and took her to his home yesterday,
but she returned to her mothers
house today.

ASKS ABOUT BRYAN.

The following questions regarding
Mr.. Bryan, have been received from
subscriber at Mapleton:
1st Immediately after election
four years ago, did Mr.. Bryan pro-
claim that he was going to keep right
on arguing for free silver until the
next election for presidents
I'd. Did he start play called "The
Curse of Gold, and as the play was
not appreciated so had to withdraw
itP
Sd. Did you ever hear of any other
man who wished to be president who
electioneered for himself and made
money by so doing?
4th. Do you remember any candi-
date who dictated to nominating
convention what should be in the
party's PLATFORM
9Th. Is it true that he will not speak
at town unless there is certain
amount of money ready for him2
9th. If these charges are true don t
it prove that he goes first, last and all
the time for Bryant
F LIST. Yes, Immediately after the
election of Mr.. Mckinley four years
ago, Mr.. Bryan said that the election
did not settle the silver question, that
the campaign of 1900 should COM
mence at once, and that there was no
other question of such Importance to
come before the American people I'M
til the silver question had been fought
out and won for silver He would not
admit that any other settlement of it
would be right, even though vast
majority of the American people
should so declare. And he continued
the agitation of the question to the
eve of the Kansas City convention and
with his leading associates, having
control of the state organizations,
packed the Kansas City convention for
himself.
I'd. Such play was written and
put on the boards and proved fail
ure. How much Bryan had to do with
it we know not. He was said to be its
sponsor, and he doubtless approved of
it, but as to anything further we could
not say.
Sd. No we never heard of another
instance of the kind. This is solely
a Bryanesque scheme.
4th. No. Bryan enjoys the dis
tinction of being the only man to die
tate the party platform and then make
the party swallow it against it's will.
9th. We do not know. These
charges were made in 1896. 1t is also
reported from several Illinois towns
that they were heavily assessed for the
privilege of hearing him speak. In
this state it is understood the Lind
Rosing syndicate paid the bills for the
Bryan trip through Minnesota, from
the proceeds squeezed out of the Office
holders.
9th. His attitude in politics rather
shows this. In fact his jumping from
issue to issue would indicate that he
is more absorbed in the matter of
getting votes for Bryan, than in edu-
eating the people along line of policy
which the nation should pursue

John Lind. Democrat, is announced
to speak here Saturday noon for a
few minutes. 1t will be noticed that
he is no longer political orphan, nor
Republican on every issue but that
of silver. In fact Mr.. Lind is saying
nothing about silver this year. He is
making his campaign this year as an
Republican and anti-everything.
The voters will remember this when
they go to the polls. There is no
doubt but that the governor will be
given big welcome here. Hundreds
who do not believe with him are anx-
ious to learn what he has to say for
himself.

The Review quotes the Chicago Re-
cord as saying that when Senator
Hanna returned home from his north
western trip he received urgent tele-
grams demanding his presence in New
York, as Democrats were making fear
full inroads into the Republican strong
holds. AS Mr.. Hanna has not gone
east, the report is doubtless a cam
paign story. Had there been any truth
in it, Senator Hanna would not have
fingered long in Chicago, he is mot
that kind of a man. The truth is, as
revealed by the New York Herald, the
Democratic leaders do not hope to cut
McKinley's majority down to less than
70, 900, and the Herald comedies it
will be at least 1850 The fact is,
the only state in the east that is now
regarded at all doubtful by Republican
leaders, and by close watchers of poll
tical movements, is Maryland, and
there the indications all point to a
Republican majority of comfortable
size,

REMEMBER AND VOTE.

Only one more issue of the. Free
Press will reach our readers before
Nov. 9th, when the American voters
at the ballot box will decide who will
be president for the next four years
and state and county officers for the
next two years. Every indication
points at present to grand Republi
can victory, one which will even
eclipse that of four years ago. But
one thing is.needed to bring this about
and that is that the voters get out to
the polls on Tuesday, Nov. 9Th. The
sentiment of hesnation is with the
Mckinley administration. The only
thing that can at this time possibly
defeat him is over confidence among
the very voters who desire him re-
elected. Therefore we say to every
farmer, to every business man, to every
working man in Blue Earth county,
be sure and get out ! to the polls on
election day, and when there see that
your ballot is marked SO that the pros
perity we have al enjoyed for the
past Snree years, will not be disturbed
by the announcement of the
result .on the morning, of Nov.
18th so far as you are concerned.
And having voted for Mckinley and
continued prosperity, follow it up by
continuing the good work down the
balance of the ticket. =.
Give him the support of good con
gresham and for that reason be sure
and vote for James T. McCleary for
Congress from this district. He has
most faithfully represented the inter
ests of the district while at Washing
ton during the past eight years. Every
measure that has had SO much to do
in helping to restore confidence and
bring prosperity, has had his active
and hearty support, and his influence
has done much to secure their passage
into laws s .-1.-.-E
. And especially should every Repub-
1ican vote be cast for Capt. Van SAINT
for governor, and for every member
of the Republican states ticket. The
Republicans have always served the
state we'll, as Gov. Lind has been
obliged to VIRTUALLY admit by being
unable to find any signs of the COR
ruption he promised to show up in
their connection with handling state
institutions. And one thing can be
depended on. IfCapt. Van SAINT and
the Republican ticket is elected, the
expenses of running the state govern
ment will not be increased 1924, 600 as
has been the csse under Gov. Lind.
Elsewhere this week we give per-
sonal writeup of the legislative and
county tickets which deserve the care
full consideration of every voter. All
are good men wh3 have been eminent
" successful in heir private business
affairs and who will bring to the SER
vice of the public that capability
which is requisite in the discharge of
the peoples affairs. Each and every
man is deserving of the support of
every voter. TIE Republicans have
managed the affairs of Blue Earth
county in a mos conservative and
economical manner during the past
six years and Their record for the past
is the best reference for their faithful
ness and capablity in the futue.
We especially wish to call attention
to all Republicans and those wishing

aft airs. the inheritance of voting for

PREPARING FOR DIRTY WORK.

Spurgeon Odell, chairman of the
fusion congressional forces in this dis
trict seems to have high (H) idea of
the conduct of political affairs Being
well aware that his candidate, Mr..
Mathews had no possible show of
winning on fair and honorable cam
paign, he conceived that possibly there
might be a chance of winning through
some undefhanded means, and so he
has in preparation a supplement for
the use of the fusion press of the Sec
ond district, which he does not want the
light of day to see, nor viewed by the
public eye until just few days before
election, after the Republican papers
through the district have all been
issued, and there is no chance for
reply to the stuff he proposes to put
out. He has been considering this
matter for some time, as will be seen
by the following letter, which he sent
out early in the month. The letter
was written on letter head of the
Called Forces" of which Mr.. Odell
is chairman, and contains also the
names of the members of the congress
sional committees of the Democratic
and Populist parties. 1t is as follows !;
