New Ulm, Mimi. April 1e.--A new wit
ness in the Tanke case has turned up in
the person Of the hired man, who boarded
with Tankes father. During the prog
ress of the trials a, persistent effort was
made to get his testimony, but he con-
stantly maintained that he was absent
from the house on the night Tanke was
reported to have been there.
Tanke's alibi was that he was at his
fathers at the time when Fellner was
said to have been shot, and that he
brought a goose to the house before s
o'clock. This man says that now the
case Is settled he. can tell his story He
says he quit work at s o'clock and walked
to the Tanke house, where he remained
with the family until after O'Clock, and
that Frank Tanke did not appear. but
that about 5 o'clock the next morning
Frank came to the house, bringing a
goose for the old folks.
The man says he and Frank came from
the same part of Germany and were old
friends, and for that reason he remained
silent. His testimony would have de-
stroyed Tanke's alibi. as all Of his rela-
tives at his fathers swore that he spent

HOW-MEDINA THRIVES
Prosperity Of the Country Reflected BY

the Growth Of the Town.
MEDINA, N.D.-The growth Of the coun-
try is reflected in the bushes activity OF
the town, and the new buildings and other
improvements. The country is receiving
a steady stream of a good class OF
settlers and claim shacks are going up in
all directions. Many of the claims were
taken last winter and with the first op-
portunity this spring the necessary inn
provements are being made. The ship
ment Of COWS and the business that the
creamery is preparing to do, shows that
the new settlers do not intend to depend
on grain crops alone, but to engage in
mixed farming.
George Lytle, mayor of South St. Paul.
shipped to Medina this week three car
loads of cows and heifers which are being
sold to the settlers. He is arranging to
open a stock commission and sales yards
here, and will build stables and yards and
buy anything in the live stock line that
the farmers have to SELL and will be pre-
pared to sell them anything they want in
the same line. Another South st. Paul
man, Mr.. Nafus, shipped in four carloads
of young cows last week, and sold the lot
to two German farmers who intend to
raise calves and sell the cream to the
creamery. The range in this vicinity is
as good as any in the state and there IL
plenty Of water and hay.
AS showing the movement in imnigra-
tion to the western part Of Stutsman
county and eastern Kidder county, there
are now camped in tents. near the track
at Medina, several families who arrived
last week and who will thus live until
suitable houses can be built on their
claims. Twenty EIGHT cars of immi-
grant moveab1es were unloaded here last
week and there were two cars Of people
with them.
Among the new buildings erected this
spring are the following: Peter Kerner.
a, residence; Shuts & Blosky, large
blacksmith shop; Davis, Kinsfurther q
Davis, store building; Snyder & Son, a
large machinery warehouse, two houses
| and coal shed ;Geckley, Koth & Co., store
building 100 feet in length and two stories
high; Carl Hillius, building for markets
| Olson. Preszler & Bolinger, an addition to
the Falk building and large warehouse

REIMBURSEMENT OF RATES.

Woodmen, Like Politicians, Fight for Con-
troll Of State Convention.
DIES MONIES, 1OWA-The bitterest
kind of feeling is stirred up among the
ranks Of the Modern Woodmen in this
state on the subject of readjustment of
rates. The state convention will be held
here May and there will be a sharp
fight for control by the administration
and anti-administration forces. The ad-
ministration forces, or those in sympathy
with the plan advocated by the officers
Of the head camp, favor what is known
as readjustrnent Of a, step rate basis. BY
this plan the rate is to be increased for
every five years of additional age. There
are many opponents of the step rate plan
in Iowa and the anti7srevisionists say they
will have a majority of the delegates in
the state convention.
The followers Of the Christian Science
church have been steadily increasing in
Des Moines in recent years and such is

there was no way of shutting off the
illegal business through the county Off
GERS.
The case is peculiar in that it takes the
district courts injunctionary proceedings
to enforce a plain provision OF law that
county officials are supposed to be sworn
to carry out. Whether they are power
less to enforce the law, or do not want
to, Is not stated.
Now, however. If the illegal business Of
preying upon these lumbermen is con-
tinued, the outfit will run up against the
contempt of court idea, and that is sure
to be enforced.
