The verdict of the coroner's Jury, so
we understand, in the case of Lars
Axelsen was that he came to his death
by blow on the back of the head,
cause unknown. This case has created
quite discussion in the county and
rumors and counter rumors have been
about that arrests have been made and
the persons found, but there is moth
ing in it; no arrests have been made,
and the officers of the law have never
done anything to create suspicion as
to who the real suspects are, nor will
they until they are sure of what they
are doing. Our sheriff thoroughly un-
derstands that work of this kind
must be done secretly and sure. and
the public may rest assured that he
will do his part and do it well in fer
retting out crime in whatever shape
he finds it.
