HUMPHREY
FOUND
GUILTY
But Recommended tor
Mercy.
Disposal of the Second
Charge.
Mercy.
Second

The ca e against A. NJ. Humphrey ID
which he was charged with larceny by
bailee was decided Tuesday night The
Jury returned a verdict Of guilty but
recommended to the mercy OF the court
This is the first case in the state where
a man has been convicted in a case
of this nature when charged with lar
ceny by bailee. The remaining two
cases against Humphreys are for VIOLA
ton of the warehouse act.
The sentence in both cases is not
to exceed Eve years imprisonment, hve
thousand dollars fine or both.
The case tried today is that in
which Humphrey is charged with ship
ping and selling of the wheat OF Mrs
]. B. Stark without her consent. A
special venire of jurors was drawn to
decide the case.
The second charge against Humphrey,
above stated, went TO trial before jury,
but was thrown out Of court on the
ground of insufficient indictment. The
indictment did not state that Humphrey
was owner of the warehouse at the time
the wheat was disposed OF as charged.
At first Humphreys attorneys moved
for verdict of, acquittal stating that
the statute of limitations had run in the
case, as the information was not filed for
three years after the wheat stored in his
warehouse. The receipts and papers
bearing on the case were introduced and
argued and it was found that the wheat
was stored in November, 1898 and the
information was filed on0ctober 81 1901,
so it was one month under the statute
OF limitations. One witness only was
called to testify in the matter. Court
then adjourned until one o'clock when
the third and last case against Hum
phrey was taken up. This was for the
same charge, violation OF The warehouse
act, in having disposed unlawiully Of the
wheat Of Tom Irice.
As soon as court adjourned the at
torneys in the case announced that the
state had dismissed the case, the in
dictment in this also being insufficient.
Humphrey will receive sentence in
the first case on Friday morning at 8
O'Clock Feb. 81.

dent upon this important subject ina
tional irrigation) and pointed out TO
him the manifold blessings in some
scheme Of irrigation for the arid lands

who suggested to the president the ne
eessity for settling the anthracite
strike?
The senator's organ also gives him
credit for securing the appointment Of
Carl B. Hard as a lieutenant in the
volunteer army. This is really funny.
Hard was appointed early in the sum-
mer Of 1899. Kearns was elected 10 the
senate in January. 1901, not much less
than two years later. II is entirely
probably that Kearns never saw Hard
and wouldn't know him II he old see
him. And by the way. at The time Hard
was appointed. the organ gave all
credit for it to Senator Carter or Mon

But we want 70 be fair in this matter
and we are willing to give thu senator
just as much credit for insseIeting the
president on national irrigation as fer
securing Hard's appointment.

almost every waking hour since early
womanhoOd to the advancement of her
American sisters.
And IL is largely through her efforts
that woman, in these opening years of
the twentieth century, is looked upon
from a broad view point. When Mrs.
Stanton was born. in 1915. women were
not much more than chattels. Their
spheres Of action were confined 20 the
home circle, their rights were abridged
along lines that would be considered
almost barbarous today. Women were
unheard OF in the professions; their
education was limited to a knowledge
Of cooking and sewing and the care Of
children.
Married women could not hold prop
erty in their own name and nowhere
were they permitted to vote on any
question. Mrs. Stanton lived TO see the
accomplishment Of many OF her objects;
but the dearest OF all, universal suf-
frage, has been left for other workers
10 achieve. It was as long ago as 1s4s
that Mrs. Stanton called the first wo-
mans suffrage convention at Seneca
Falls, n. Z. She was pilloried
from one end OF the land to the other
and many of her timid supporters
hastily withdrew because of the storm
of ridicule and protest.
Nevertheless she kept bravely on
against an opposition that would have
daunted most of her sex. In 1866. Mrs.
Stanton. having moved with her hus-
band and family TO New York City. ran
as an independent candidate for con-
gress in the Eighth district. Her plat
form was terse and admirable. This
was what il said:
Belonging 10 a dlsfranchised class I
have no political antecedents TO recon-
mend me 20 your support; but my
creed Is free speech. free press. free
men and free trade-the cardinal points
OF Democracy"
OF course Mrs Stanton didn't come
near being elected-she received only
twenty-tour yotes-but she established
woman's inalienable right TO run for
once ana that was what she set out
TO do. Advancing years did not chill
Mrs. Stanton's ardOr. In spite of age
she kept up her interest and her ac-
tivity almost TO the last.

"A Thoroughbred Tramp is the at
traction at the Grand theatre. 1t is
melodrama which originated in the fer
tile brain of John Arthur Frazer. II
Is full OF exciting situations which, al
though impossible in real life, when
properly staged afford delight to the
gallery gods and those who like plays
Which abound in gun-pIays and spe-
clalties profusely intermingled. Charles
II. Farnham, as the tramp is the prin-
cipal character throughout the hair
raising play. He is a supposedly
wronged husband through the villainy
OF W. b. Fredericks, and always turns
up at the right moment with a gun as
long as the moral law. AS might be
imagined, the villain, after committing
a murder TO gain gold. plotting to rob
a. train and attempting 10 force the
tramp's wife to marry him in the re-
treat OF the robbers, comes TO grief
The estranged husband and wife are
united, the lovers marry and the gal
lery gods howl with delight. During
the course Of the play there are sew
eral skits which add to the delight Of
the occupants OF the upper gallery. and
win hearty applause from the re-
mainder of the audience.
