LAPORTE is BECOMING A CEN
TER OF INTEREST.
She Now Grasps Her Vast
Opportunity and will Make
Up Her Raw Material.

Development in the new stave
factory to be erected by Trexler x
Terrill will not now be long in get
ting start at this place. Accord
ing to plans now eXacted the pro-
posed factory will be in operation by
October next.
On Tuesday, General Manager of
the w. & N. B. r. r., Mr.. Town
send, with his track boss, Ellie
Bubb, and surveyor, w. c. Mason,
met on the ground of the proposed
plant, with Mr.. Oscar Trezler, of
Allentown, with his superintendent,
Mr.. Jas. Monroe, and factory fore
men, Chas. Smith and n. s. Millet.
The location of the factory was
staked out, and siding surveyed
which will be laid by the Railroad
Company, at once, when completed
the machinery and lumber for the
factory will begin to arrive on the
grounds. The Borough stone crush
er has been moved to the place and
will be put i'm operation this week,
crushing stone with which to make
a concrete arched steam pit, 80 feet
long and wide enough to allow for
"A double track, on which trucks will
pass each holding one half cord of
bolts which are steamed before cut
into slaves.
The main building will be about
125 by 30 feet, with many additional
sheds and outbuildings. A one hun
dred horse power boiler will be in
stalled to generate steam.
The plant when completed will
cost in the aggregate $4,000, and
the very substantial manner In
which it is constructed, and supplied
with the most improved and modern
machinery, would indicate that it is
no short lived project, but one that
will give paying employment to La
porte for many years.
Messrs. Trexler and Terrill have
leased all the lands of the Union
Tanning Co., in this section of the
county and will purchase timber of
smaller individual land owners
wherever it can be procured. The
factory will be stocked with logs
principally i'm winters. The daily
capacity will be 10000 slaves, EN-
ploying % men in the factory. In
the woods upwards of Is men will
be employed at times. Cement
manufacturers will be the largest GUS
toners for the product Of this facto-
ry. A large boarding house will be
erected near the factory for the ac-
c0mmodatiOn Of labOrers.
The business Of this industry will
be transacted mostly through the
firms offices ut Rickets. Supt. Jas.
Monroe, of near indianapolis, Ind.
will have complete charge of the
business with headquarters at this
place, however.
LapOrte is one Of the most favored
spots in the county for the manufac-
ture Of wooden articles, and the start
has been made which will be the up
building Of a prosperous commercial
village. Whiting fifteen miles of
her boundary line is two-thirds of the
hardwood timber Of the county.
The prevailing elements Of its sur
face features are forests and broken
hills. This fact proves thai the hard
wood manufactury industry at La
porte has heretofore been passed by.

Goodwin, of West Franklin, Maine,
who, at eighteen years of age, testified
that she had been entirely cured of it
by Hoods Sarsaparilla, when other
medicines had failed to do her any
good whatever.
1t exhibited itself in sores on the
face and neck of the son of Mrs. Eta
Washburn, of Kennebunk, Maine, and
in punches under the eyes of the
daughter of Mrs. w. E. Tewksbury, of
South Atkinson, Maine, both of whom
were radically and permanently cured
by Hoods Sarsaparilla.
The fact is, Hoods Sarsaparilla is
the medicine of all medicines for
scrofula, in either sex, at any age.
Il acts directly and peculiarly on the

this can be easily proven by what it

No substitute acts like it.

tation that should give satisfaction to
all concerned
Judge Hartwell said that he appre-
ciated what the Attorney General had
said, and of course, had nothing to
say against the Attorney General for
having counsel associated with him
whom he thought fit, but that he did
not consider this case of sympathy.
1t was a question of law of the utmost
Importance. in which no person nor
set of persons in this community
would be considered for one moment.
He therefore regretted that the Attor-
ney General did not intend to appear
and present his views upon the subject,
and that he saw no reason why he
should not do so.
Mr.. Dole said ne had used the word
sympathy" inadvertently, and he had
only to say in conclusion that the
events of the past few days had i'm
pressed him in such way that In the
forum of his conscience ne could find
no excuse for, and no Justification OF
his appearance In the court.
Chief Justice Frear announced that
the case would be continued until
Wednesday morning, as Judge Gal
braith was going to Hilo on Tuesday,
and II was necessary that the judges
of the Supreme Court have opportunity
to conclude some pending discussions
before Judge Galbraith's departure.

CASE
I IS DEFERRED

The 1t A. Thurston contempt case
WENT over in the Supreme Court yes
terdtiy informing. This conclusion was
reached by Chief Justice Frear, who
desired the extra time Tor the compile
ton OF work by the court. The chief
justice was on the bench when court
opened, Judge Hartwell and Mr.. Ballou
appearing FOR Mr.. Thurston, and F. T..
thompson for the order of contempt.
The chief Justice said on opening the
matter: :,
'.0n account of certain important
matters demanding the early attention
of the. Supreme Court, | desire that
this case go over until Wednesday
morning, providing there Is no serious
objection on the part of counsel"
Thompson stated that his side had
no objection to postponempnt.
Judge HartWell addressed the court,
and said that on the day when the
petitioner was sentenced to imprisOn-
ment, and while waiting in the court
house for the mittimus, he went with
his counsel to the chief justices
chambers and stated the points on
which the habeas corpus could be sued
out, namely the illegality of the Grand
Jury, as well as the confidential com
munication from a client of the coun
sci, and urged that special term of
the Supreme Court be ordered in Oh der
that the full court might hear and
decide matters of such great import
ance; that the chief justice gave coun-
sci for the petitioner an opportunity
to present this request to the associate
justices who came into the chief jus
tees chambers to hear them, and, af-
ter some consideration by the chief
justice and his associates, counsel were
informed that the full court would not
sit in the case, but that the matter
would have to come before the chief
justice alone.
Mr.. Ballou, Of counsel said that the
petitioner was ready to proceed. and
he hoped that the case would be heard
at once
Attorney General Dole said, In re-
ply:
