Projectors Of Sightloss PoIkors Ia
Atwater Jorkod Out Of Their
Dream Of Security.

Atwater has for some time been In
tested with band of unlicensed dis
pensers of liquid refreshment. The
authorities did not seem to find any
way OF reaching these law-breakers
and this made them more bold. Fin
ally some of the citizens took the mat
ter in hand and went to work to Sc
cure evidence. Last week they came
to Willmar and laid the matter be.
fore the county attorney. The result
was that on Saturday Frank Ander-
son, Otto Hendrickson and Robert
Hendrickson were brought to Willmar
and arraigned before Justice Otter
ness on a charge of selling liquors
without license. On Monday Elmer
Erickson was also brought before the
same justice on the same charge.
The hearing of the cases was post
poned until Saturday, Aug. II, at ten
O'Clock q. m. Bail was fixed at $3.50
for each of them, and they all secured
bail.
The evidence in the cases has been
secured by Magnus Johnson. We
hope it will be sufficient to close up
those pest-holes and convince the
blindpiggers that Atwater is very
unhealthy place for law-breakers.

the WORK OF PIcK-PockETs.
E. N. Eastman, tho House Mover,
Relieved Of Pocket book and
Contents.

Last Friday afternoon, while coming
to Willmar from Litchfeld, E. M.
Eastman was relieved of his pocket
book containing about $40 in cash,
by some light-fngered gents who were
passengers on the same train. The
two men had no doubt planned to
make the haul at a moment when the
crowd was getting ready to alight
from the train, for they waited until
just before the train stopped at Will
mar. In getting out they jostled past
Mr.. Eastman, in such way as to de-
tract his attention from their purpose.
The loss of the pocket book was not
discovered until shortly afterwards,
when the men had made their disap-
pearance in the crowd. Mr.. Eastman
did not have sufficient proof as to who
the guilty parties were and accordingly
no arrests were made. He strongly
suspected the two men who had made
such a hurried disappearance from the
car. It was reported that one of the
suspects had bought ticket for Ben
son, but at the last moment had taken
the Sioux Falls passenger.
Mr.. Eastman was in Willmar on
business connected with the removal
of the Peavey elevator and stopped
here but a short time. returning on
the next train for his home in Litch.

New Location for Peavey Elevator.

New Location for Peavey Elevator.
The work of removing the Peavey
elevator will be quite an undertaking.
We understand it will be necessary to
take down the Western Union wires
along the Great Northern right of way,
over which route the building will be
taken to it's new location. The site
will be where the lumber yard of Rice
Bros. is at present, and the grounds
will be vacated by these gentlemen,
who have conducted the lumber bust
ness there for many years. We under
stand that, they will retire from the
business. The cost of removing the
elevator will be considerable, which
with the necessary work in putting
1t In good shape again for business
will foot up to large sum. When
completed it will be in excellent shape
for handling q share of the grain bust
ness In Willmar. The capacity of the
store house will be increased to $1,000
bushels.

last evening by Minneapolis Eastern
freight train, near the mill.
johnson and another workman, Tim
Quincy, had just finished unloading
q car of wheat, and Johnson WAS
sweeping the scattered wheat on the
platform near the pit into the hopper.
A passenger train rushed along over
the viaduct. johnson looked up at it
and was struck by the freight train
that was switching near the mill.
He chung to the break beam and was
dragged nearly fifty feet before his
legs were caught under the wheels.
When the engineer stopped the train,
it was found that Johnson's legs and
one of his arms were mangled, and he
was seriously injured about the head
and body.
He was alive when pulled out from
under the wheels, and the patrol wagon
took bin to the Asbury hospital.
Both legs and one arm were ampu-
tated, but the injured man could not
Withstand the shock, and he died in
twenty minutes.-Minneapolis Times.
The sad news reached here last We'd
nesday morning of Mr.. Johnson's
death. when his cousins, County At
torney Johnson of Willmar, and Nels
johnson of the town of Kandiyohi,
received word by telegram. The latter
at once made arrangements to 20 to
the city to bring the body here for
burial, and returned on Thursday
night with the remains. County At

day afternoon to make an investiga-
ton, returning Friday night.
The remains were taken to the under

from here about three years. The

"Citizen" at tho Bat.

Little did I dream when I made thai
little inquiry of the memorable" 4tt
of July committee as to why no report
is made, that it would be sufficient tc
jerk anybody's parachute loose from
his "gas" supply. I see, however,
that "Contributor," doubtless q valu.
able member of the subcommittee OF
that memorable Fourth of July aggre.
CATION, took serious offense at this in.
quiry and at once sought to squelch
me with his ridicule. He must be q
soft guy and, in my opinion, wholly
unfit to serve on such q committee. It
should be composed of hard shells -
who care nothing about public criti-
cism and who could not be disturbed,
except by red. hot pokers flung in fend-
ish rage by trained bullfghters. But
you, "Contributor, was disturbed by
my little inquiry, like weak, nervous
woman.
You boast of the committee (mean-
ing OF course yourself being business
men. BY what right do you assume
this title? You collected funds from
the public without making an account.
A "business man" spending his own
money need make no accounting to
the public; but when he collects money
from the public and spends it common
decency dictates that he should render
complete statement of the jolliica-
ton he has had. "A cat, when you
give it nice piece of meat, will some
times scratch and bite the hands that
feed it. Men should at least be as
honorable as dogs and acknowledge
with thankfulness the crumbs received,
even be they small.
Since you are so free with your in
formation and advice, here is another
one for you to answer: When you or
perhaps the committee) furnished the
Gazette with the names of the business
men why did you not at the same time
give the names of the "hell.hole" pro-
prietors, that we might find out who
were the chief movers in starting such
q patriotic movement"

DR.. Mckee IN TROUBLE.
A Former Wtllmar Veterinary Surgeon
Arrested at Benson for Break.
ing tho Game Law.

That the breaking of the game law
will not be tolerated by our citizens
was shown this week when DR.. o. W.
Mckee was arrested for having prai-
RE chickens in his possession. There
was strong suspicion that that in
dividual was in the habit of shooting
game when protected by the law and
In consequences close watch was kept
on him. Sunday morning he was ar
rested for breaking the game law and
in searching the house the officers
found nine chickens. A hearing be-
fore Justice Johnson was set for Tues
day afternoon, but as the doctor de-
manded jury trial the case was ad-
journed until Wednesday forenoon.
The defendent acted as his own at.
torney and commended that the finding
of the chickens in his house was not
evidence that they were in his posses
sion. The jury, however, could not
see it in that light and after deliber.
ating over the matter short time
found him guilty. Inasmuch as
the whole amount involved was too
large to try in justice court the first
charge under which he was arrested
was for having three chickens in his
possession. For this offense he was
fined thirty dollars and costs. He
was Immediately rearrested for hav.
ing six more chickens in his posses.
sion and was again brought up before
Justice johnson yesterday morn.

alton and was bound over to await
the action OF the grand jury. A. F.

attorney.-Benson Monitor.
