The WORD goes out from repub.
lican headquarters that Ed. Rick
etts is the organization pet and all
efforts will be made for him. Well,
there is fight in the committee
on that proposition. Col. Sands
and Bill Ryan have to elect Rick
etts to save their reputation as
fighters, while John White, per-
haps for personal reasons, must
have probate judge that he can
handle. When the wind up comes,
Ricketts, and Stone will be between
two fires that will leave but a

attack of lumbago that held him
in bed ell that winter aAa 10 was
many weeks into spring before he
was able to be around. He has
been driving hard for some weeks
past and the exposure has again
laid him up, but not so severe as
before. We saw him this morning,
and he must lay quiet for a while,
but hopes to be out in few days.
We volunteered to tell him to lay
still, and that his friends would
take care Of his campaign for him.

JUDGE FRIEsNnR
Dies Suddenly of Heart Failure A
Great Shock TO His Many Friends.
lcolumbus citizen

"Judge John S. Friesner, one of
the best known lawyers at the Co
lumbus bar, died suddenly nt his
home, 952 Enst Rich street, at Z
o clock Monday morning.. No one s
was in the room at the time of his
death, his brother-in-law having
just left to get some breakfast for
him down stairs. When be re-
turned in about 10 minutes the
Judge was dead. His face was
calm, indicated that the end had
been painless.
The deceased had been subject
to spells of heart failure for some
time. He was able, however, to
be at his office Saturday and felt
no worse than usual. Sunday
morning he took short walk with
his friend, Attorney James Miles,
| and talked over some business
matters with him, returning in
about an hour. Towards evening
he complained that he was not
feeling we'll and went to bed.
During the night he became quite
sick, and DR.. Towns was summon
ed about 8 o'clock this morning.
Several hours later the deceased
called his brother-in-law to his bed
and told him he believed he did
not feel we'll enough to go to the
office and instructed him what to
tell his business partner, Mr.. Ferd
Siegel. Five minutes later he was
dead.
The wife of the deceased lcft
Saturday for Logan to pay visit
to her daughters and relatives, and
the only persons in the house were
the brother-in-law, Mr.. Paul Shep-
herd, and an aunt. They at once
called DR.. Towns, who pronounced
it heart failure and notified the
coroner.
No arrangements for the funeral
will be made until the family
reaches the city, but the remains
will probably be taken to Logan
for interment.
Judge Friesner was Sd years Of
age. He has been lawyer since
attaining his majority. He was
born and raised in Logan and was
for ten years Common Pleas judge
in Hooking county. He removed
to this city in 1889 and resumed
the practice of law, being actively
engaged up to the time of his
death
The deceased was married twice,
his first wife being Harriet Gala
CHER, who died in 1888. BY her
he had three children, two daugh-
ters and son. The two daugh-
ters, Henrietta and Catherine, have
been living for some time with
their grandmother in Logan. The
son, Frederick, a musician, died in
this city last April.
In 1889 the deceased was marri-
ed to Mrs. Orel Courtwright, his
present wife. Beside the wife and
two daughters, the deceased leaves
a brother, Colonel Friesner of Lo-
gan.
The deceased has many warm,
close personal friends and was
noted for his geniality and COM
panionable disposition. He never
spoke word against any
one and was always ready to help
friend in need"
The remains of Judge Friesner
were brought to Logan Wednes-
nay morning, and the funeral oc-
cured from the Gallagher residence,
Wednesday afternoon, Rev, H. j.
Steward officiating. Interment
took place at Oak Grove cemetery.

From ;he London Mail
Deep is the confidence of the Brlton in
the law. 1t settles his quarrels, and he

can defray.
a Parliamentary return issued yester-
day, and dealing with the judicial work
OF 1900, shows that during the year men
toned there was, compared with the
preceding year, a slight decrease in APP
peals entered and an increase in pre-
ceedings begun.
Compared with the average of the pre-
ceding four years the. total of cases be-
gun ard heard shows an increase.
IL appears that OF all the cases begun
considerably less than half come to trial
The total of cases entered in all courts
was 1,310,eS0, and the number heard and
determined 429,41S. This means that one
case was begun for every twenty-five
members of the population, while one
for every seventy-five was heard. Seeing
that there are a plaintiff and defendant
in each case, it follows that one person
out of every twelve and half began a
legal action and one in every thirty-sev-
en- and half brought an action to trial
J he Judicial Committee heard fifty ap-
peals from India, thirty-three from the
colonies and sixteen from Australia. The
average cost of these appeals is estimat-
ed at S25e each.
The average cost of an appeal to the
House of Lords is nearly twice as much,
senior counsel in these cases receiving
from SO 10 70 guineas a day, and their
iuDiors tWo-thirds of their fees.
OF S03 cases in the Court of Appeals no
fewer than 122 were cases under the
Wcrkmer's Compensation acts. The av-
erage cost to each party CT these ap-
peals is PUT at ESQ.
1t Is instructive as to the nature Of
lawyers charges to know that some bills
of costs of appeals before the LORDS have
had as much as 62 per cent taxed off,
and the average reduction by taxation
was 29.06. In one case the bill of costs
was 92336, but the hearing extended over
eleven days.
The records show that there is no de-
cline in the public liking for trial by jury

HOMESTEAD PRIVILEGES.
House Committee Favors the Bill Extend
ing the Homestead Laws to Certain Mis-
souri, Mliitismen and Others.

Washington, June 27.-The house
committee on public lands has made
a favorable report on bill which
extends certain privileges under the
homestead laws now enjoyed by
every soldier who SERVED in the
army of the United States during
the recent rebellion for 30 days and
who was honorably discharged and
has remained loyal to the govern
ment." The soldiers to whom these
privileges are now extended consist
of two classes--frst, the provisional
enrolled Missouri militia, consisting
Of II regiments and one company,
and, second, the men whose services
were recognized by the so-called
Hawkins Taylor commission, appoint
ed in 1862, who were paid by the
government, numbering at that time
1918 men.
The soldiers belonging to the or
ganizatioD/ above have been recog-
nized as having been in the service
of the United States and have a
pensionable status, but the land de-
partment has held that these men
are not entitled to the benefits
named in the bill, because they did
not, strictly speaking, Serve in the
army of the United States"

DEwEY'S TESTIMONY.


Washington, June 27.--Admiral
Dewey made a statement before the
senate committee on the Philippines
yesterday afternoon concerning the
early operations at Manila when he
was in command of the American ma
val forces in the Philippine waters.
The admirals statement contributed
an important addition to the history
Of the surrender of the city of Ma
Mia. This consisted of a positive
statement by the admiral to the eff
feet that the city had not been sur
rendered to him at the time that the
Spanish feet was sunk and that when
the city did surrender it was in pur-
suance of definite understanding
between himself and the Spanish gov
ernor general.
Admiral Dewey said emphatically
that he never had recognized Agui-
naldos government, nor did he salute
Aguinaldo's flag; he never called
Aguinaldo general but addressed
him as don Emilio" The admiral
said he had never given the Philip
pine republic the slightest recogni-
ton; that he had no authority to
do so and did not consider 1t an or
ganized government. He said the
Spaniards were fearful Of the Fill
pinos entering Manila and therefore
surrendered to him in advance. He
said there was no need for the loss
Of man in the capture Of the city.
No gun would have been fred but for
the desire Of the governor who said
his honor demanded that few shots
be fred, $50 I had TO fire and kill Q
few people," said the admiral, "but
the Spaniards did not fire because
he had warned them not to do So"
Admiral Dewey also said that when
he let the Filipinos have guns and
ammunition he thought II a military
necessity. Looking backward he
could see that they were not needed
He considered them very ungrateful
