We understand by reports and rumors
that are being circulated by some, per
haps misinformed) that the death of
Mrs Lorinda Walls at the +. NJ church
last Tuesday evening, was due TO great
demonstrations and excitement. In re-
ply 20 this we wish 10 say that such was
not the case. While we are not ac-
quainted with the deceased, we have
learned from those of her own family,
and others who knew her that she was
always very quiet and composed under
all circumstances. Without any appar-
ent excitement she arose TO her feet and
gave evidence of a christian life. stating
that she was thankful for the privilege
Of attending a prayer meeting, of which
she had not had the privilege for some
time, and that she had settled il in her
heart, of late, more than ever TO be true
to her God. Perhaps this may disabuse
the minds of some from misrepresenta-
tions stated by those who are always
ready TO prosecute the cause of Christ.
We expect prosecutions, our Master was
prosecuted and offended while on earth,
but he says Woe unto him, through
whom they come" Nav the Lord help
those, to get so excited for sins commit
ted that they may repent, so that when
the death angel comes they may be pre-
pared TO, as the one who has gone.

MIR. EDITOR

Mr.. EDITOR:
The following is taken from the De-
troit Journal of July 10th and there Is
so much truth in this honest lawyers
statements, and il is so applicable to the
trial of Isenlord for the murder OF my
son, Isaac, year ago last March that
would like TO have il printed in every
paper In the county and state:
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa, July IL, 1901.
President McOarthZ made startling
statements regarding the prevalence oil
forgery and bribery In American Courts
of Justice in his address TO the Iowa
State Bar Association at its annual
meeting in this city He said, where IL
there lawyer who has not seen the
guilty criminal pass out OF the court
room acquitted and set free because oil
periured testimony? What one OF US
but has seen the rights of persons and oil
property sacrificed and trampled under
/ foot, presumably under the form of law
but really and truly by the use OF cor
rupt, false and sometimes purchased
testimony these are the things that be-
get distrust and disrespect for the courts
and for verdlcts, and for our boosted
| forms of law These are the things thai
produce anarchy ,lynchings and invite q
just contempt as well as lack OF conn
dence in those tribunals called courts ol
justice.
How true are these statements. They
are made by an honest and celebrated
lawyer, who speaks from actual know
| ledge, and we know from our own eX'
perlence that there Is no certainty oil
getting justice done in any OF our courts
and if by chance justice is done and the
accused is found guilty, and an honest
Judge sentences the guilty wretch &c
prison for "a term of years or for life
whether he is murderer, or no matter
what his crime has been, he knows that
! ten chances TO one he can get pardoneo
out of prison before he has served hall
of his time. These are the things that
encourage crime, for the evil minded
know that if they murder, rob, steal OF
commit any other crime they stand q
good chance TO be acquitted in court, oil
If sent TO prison, they know their
chances are good TO get pardon. They
know they would not be hung in this
state if they should murder a whole
| family of good respectable people, and
if they are possessed of the same hellist
disposition of Isenlord or any other
cowardly murderer they will do the
terrible deed, and take their chances tC
get out of it some way and they will al
ways find some who are mean enough
to help them. Oh, that justice could bt
less frequent and the guilty wretche'
who commit those terrible crimes woulc
have no hope Of escape

they divided with the boats. The
Northern Pacilc secured the haul to
bismarck. The new arrangement
gives the business, to the 500. The
Missouri slope country is discussing
the purpose of two surveying parties
which began work in that part of
North Dakota a few days ago. 1t is
believed that the Northern Pacific
plans an extension from Bismarck
south along the river III order to TAP
the Fort Yates country. Cattle is the
principal industry.
In addition to cutting the Northern
Pacific out of considerable business
the new 500 extension brings the road
into some very choice territory hith-
erto monopolized by the Milwaukee.
Cattle and wheat shipments in the
northern counties of South Dakota east
Of the river are on the increase. The
500 will divide a nice portion of this
business with the Milwaukee.
