Complys with the Order of
- the Court and Pardon
Recommended
Leaves the Jail Last Sat-
urday Morning a Free
Man Again.

Washington, May 25.-The presi-
dent has pardoned Alexander Nc,
Ken zie, now confined in the jail at
Oakland, Cal =, for contempt of the
circuit court of appeals for the Ninth
circuit.
Yesterday the attorney general
made the following report to the
president by wire:
"Have delayed report in Mckenzie
case TO make personal investigation
as to wherein he is still in default
and in order that the effects of your
acts Of clemency, should you be SO
disposed, might not be defeated by
contentious as TO the fact of COM
pliance by McKcrz:e with the courts
orders. The court advises me to
two specific things are yet to be de-
cided. I now, therefore, in lieu OF
previous reports prepared by me, adj
wise that in view Of .McKenzie's i'll
health and the recommendation by
the court whose writs he disobeyed
that his sentence be committed so
that he may be released when the
contempt is purged by the full CON-
pliance with the writs Of supersedas
issued by the United States circuit
court of appeals by the ninth circuit.
If you will telegraph me your decis-
ion I will direct release when court
advises me of compliance.'
Last night the following telegram
was received from Judge Morrow:
mckenzie has this day fully COM
piled with the order of the circuit
court Of appeals by turning over to
the defendants the remaining prop
erty which came into bis hands as
receiver in the cases in which he
stands committed for contempt"
The attorney general thereupon
sent an additional telegram TO Pfesi-
dent Mckinley advising the quick
and unconditional pardon Of McKen-
zie. Upon receipt of the presidents
telegram, notifying him that the par
don had been granted, the attorney
general, by wire, instructed the jailer
at Oakland to Immediately release
the prisoner.
Mckenzie, who had been appointed
receiver of number of gold mines in
Alaska by Judge Noyes of the dis
trict court of Alaska, refused to turn
O yer certain gold dust, the products
of the mines, when ordered to do sc
by the circuit court Of appeals at San
Francisco. He previously, by order
of the court, had returned to the de-
Pendants all of the property which
had come into his possession, except
his gold dust. For his failure tc
turn this latter over he was imprison-
ed for contempt Of court. Mckenzie
cl aimed that he was following the
a advice of his counsel. The amount
involved was over 100000.

Got a Piece of Canuck Money.

The two horses of T. j. LaClair
which he sent to Canada to take in
the racing circuit, got into the win
nings little at Brandon on the "a.
The little sorrel took second money
in the pony race and the gray came
in third in the horse race. The re-
port from there is that they are now
about $50 ahead of their expenses,
which is considered pretty good for
going SO far away from home. There
are number of other races in the
circuit, and they will take in the rest
of them before coming home.

may seem to have been irregular, if
the observer glances merely at isolat-
ed periods of history, if a larger view
is taken, and the history of the race
is taken in it's entirety it will be seen
that there has been gradual and
quite uniform elevations of the stan
dards since the dawn of history.
There is no more reason to believe
that we have now reached the sum-
NIT OF human development thatther
was one, or ten, or twenty centuries
ago. The people Of all ages have
had their problems to solve, and their
difficulties to contend with. In some
way or other the problems have been
solved, and the obstacles overcome
So it will always be, and while the
necessity of regulating the trusts and
properly adjusting ourselves to TIE
new conditions in which we find our
selves must be recognized, we must
also recognize the fact that similar
problems have always been solved in
the past, and that it is in keeping
with the traditions of the race that
they should always be solved in the
future.-Grand Forks Herald,
Third Notice.
Every editor has received them,
says writer. The postmaster sends
to the editor, but the postmaster is
not to blame. For instance, there
was a man named Tim Short who
sent us three notices to stop his pa
per, he didn't want it any longer.
We wondered what was the matter.
Upon investigation of our subscrip-
ton list we found Tim was short
$3.50. He had never paid cent and
he stopped the paper as matter Of
economy to us. A few evenings ago
we stepped into church and Tins
melodioua tenor rang out clear in that
soul-stirring song, "Jesus Paid 1t
ALL" He might have been mistaken
but his earnestness impressed us.
The next day we sent him receipt
in full, begging his pardon for not
knowing that he had made an assign
ment of his liabilities to the Lord.

shooting OF BRIGHT
No New Developments From the
Scene OF the Missouri
Tragedy.
Sympathy in Marshalltown Is
With the Son Who Did
the Shooting.
Senior Bright Quarrelsome at
Times and Sons Story Of
Ratchet Is Believed.

No additional word has been received
today concerning the shooting of Alex
Bright by his son Guy during family
quarrel at the Bright home near Iantha,
Mo. The T.-R. telegraphed for later de-
velopments and report of the condition
of the wounded man, but up to o'clock
no reply had been received. 1t is pre-
sumed. therefore, that Bright is still
alive
Among the old neighbors and ac-
quaintances of the Bright family in this
city and county the sympathy is largely
with the son Guy, who did tile shoot
ing. Guy is the youngest of the SUR
viving sons of Mr.. Bright. and is about
"a years of age. While his friends say
he was somewhat wild when boy,
they believe that the senior Bright was
largely responsible for the trouble lead
ing up to the shooting. Alex Bright
was rather queer character and a
man who at times was addicted to the
use of intoxicants. When in his cups
he was somewhat quarrelsome and In
clined to be abusive to his family and
those who had personal or business re-
lations with him. 1t is presumed here
that it was while under the influence
of liquor that quarrel ensued which
resulted in the shooting.
Mr.. Bright has three sons. Bayard
Bright is somewhere in the west.
Harry Bright resides on the farm near
LaMoflle, while the younger son, Guy.
has been S1iving with his father and
stepmother on the farm near Iantha.
Mo. Iantha is small town in Bar
ton county. of which Lamar is the
county seat. The Bright farm is To-
Gated five miles from Iantha, and direct
news from there is hard to obtain.

to $500 to be raised in the city. The
farmers have committees at work and

it Is apparent that the country people

This morning Mr.. e. F. Kirby and Mr..

interested in the movement, started out
to make canvass of the retail mer-
chants and other business men OF Mar

couraged from the start, because some
Of those who should be the fret to con-
tribute most literally did not show a
disposition to aid the work to the degree
that they should. Messrs. Kirby and

ton must be manifested by the people

the retail merchant the securing of good
roads on the main Travelled highways
leading to the city is of more import
ance than the securing of factory or
two The condition of the Nicholson's
ford road is such that an embargo is
placed on the territory east and north
east of the city during about four
months of each year. 1t is the worst
piece of road, as has been said many
times before, In the whole of Marshall
county, and at the same time is one of
the main avenues to the city from one
of the most prosperous sections of Mar
shall county, When the roads are bad
in the spring and sometimes in the late
fall the merchants ought to be able to
figure about how much they lose in
trade because of the inaccessibility of
the city to a large proportion of the
farmers. AT the present time the roads
are good. and it may be necessary to
await the return of the rainy season be-
fore the people of the city will awake to
the Importance Of the work undertaken
by public-spirited farmers and citizens.
If the city is to hold it's country trade
the citizens must cooperate with the
farmers in the establishment of good
roads and the plan adopted in the pres
ent case is one of the most feasible that
could be suggested.

a VERSATILE MAN,
Prof. zusblin Praises the Record Of
William Morris, Noted English

Prof. Zueblin Praises Tho Record Of
William Morris, Noted English
man.
/ Prof. Charles Zueblin of the Univer-
sity of Chicago. delivered the third
lecture in the university extension
course in the east court room last ev-
enfng. His subject was William Nor
ris, and the Ethics of Work" Morris
Twas an Englishman, born in 1884, but
who did not become prominent until
late in life, during the latter half of
the nineteenth century. The lecturer
regarded him as one OF the greatest
characters he had ever known because
of his versatility in various fields Of
useful effort. Perhaps praise of him
did not appeal greatly to the auditors
because they knew so little of him and
his work. Possibly, too. being Of a con-
temporary age with most of the living,
he has not yet reached the niche In
fame to which his admirer would as
sign him. However that na,k be, he
presented Morris as a many sided man
of usefulness. He was of stalwart
frame and great mind, a lover of work
and a man of intense activity. who ac-
complished a remarkable amount Of
work. In his youth he had been poet
and dreamer of ideals. In tine early
part of his active career he turned his
attention to architecture and paint
ing, but abandoned them, and later on
was recognized as n decorator and de-
signer, one who. as the lecturer put 1t,
filled in blank spaces with beautiful
and useful articles. In the matter of
house decoration. his theory was that
nothing should be permitted in the
home that was not known to be use
full or believed to be beautiful. Morris
became practical worker with his
hands and mastered the art of the
dyer, assisted in restoring stained glass
to its primitive splendor, improved the
making of colored tiles, turned his at
tention to weaving and acquired
skillful use of the loom, improved wall
paper and furniture, the Norris chair
being one Of his useful articles, and he
tried to beautify the art of printing.
He was also lecturer. an agitator, n
social reformer, and entered the do
main OF labor to improve it IL possible.
In his ethics of work he urged that
labor should be made SO attractive to
the workingman that it would not be a
drudge but rather a part of his life
that would be enjoyable, and further
that the workman's home should be
made attractive. In his scholarly way
Professor Zueblin illustrated and IL
the ideas he presented in or
der to show that Morris efforts in var
ious fields We're to make each individual
life a happy entity and not an infini-
tesimal part of a great industrial ma
chine, warped all out of shape by the
small knowledge acquired in the fields
of usefulness.

A PRoHlelTloNlsT AGAIN.

Mr. Editor: Having read your article
entitled Our Opinion of Prohibition
ist' desire to gay that the sincerity you
|credit them with entities them to hear
ing from your readers
You seem to emphasize the statement
as often made and generally believed
that the only legislation the prohioi-
tionist ever got was from the republican
party. In 1851. under democratic adj
nlinistration. the legislature of Iowa
passed law prohibiting the retailing OF
Intoxicating liquors and the Keeping OF
places known as dramshops a demo-
cratic supreme court. Williams, Green
end Keeny, held the law valid. Could
yeu not say to the rum element with as
much truth that all the legislation they
ever got in Iowa favorinS them came
from the republican party? The trouble
lis the republican party legislates on
both sides of the same question as in the
present case of prohibition and mulct
law. They make a law and fix pen
atty for the violator. and then pass
Inv that the former law can be broken
at will, by consent if a certain sum Is
paid. You see the republican party Is
trying to get the support of two oppo-
sites. Because the republicans put up "a
candidate fayoring the prohibitory law
cummins went over and defeated him.
Now that the republican party has put
up this man Cummns to reward him, as
we believe at the behest of the liquor
power. the prohibition side of the repub-
lican party proposes to go over to the
prohibition party which represents their
principles. just as the democratic
party represents Cummins princi-
pies. If the T.-R. had consistency
and wisdom 1t would see it was tit for
tat. 1t looks to the average citizen as
IL both the democratic and republican
parties had fallen from the high moral
plane of prohibition and gotten into the
mire of rum politics so deep as to be be-
You'd redemption. They size up just now
as pair of political twins. both after

Mutton is more wholesome than pork.
and it is not so high priced. and on
many farms are found sheep that are

scholar in economics does not relate,
and if he has found substitute for the
fruit he has failed to name that. In
