FAVOR HIGHER TRIBUNAL
Attorneys Would Like Municipal
Court in New Uln1.
Jurisdiction Would Include Actions
Involving $500.
Special Act Necessary to Change
From Present System.

Local attorneys and others interest
ed in legal matters would like to see
municipal court established in
New Ulm. They have several causes
OF complaint against the present
justice system and would feel no
serious qualms of conscience if it were
supplanted. Certainly the proposed
plan is an Improvement and it, there
fore, should be encouraged. .
Not to go into exhaustive details it
will suffice to say that the municipal
court would be higher in every way.
In civil actions a justice of the peace
only has jurisdiction in cases which
do not involve more than 800, while
municipal Judge could rule upon
cases where not more than $500 is at
stake. This would allow of suits for
personal injuries and other damages
being brought before him and would
enable him to dispose of many cases
which. now go over to the district
court.
Generally speaking, the criminal
jurisdiction of the court would be the
same as that of a justice of the
peace, except that it would be pos
sible to try and determine all trans
gressions committed under the ordi-
nances of the city in which it was
located. A justice can now punish by
a fine of not more than 800 and can
sentence to 80 days in the county Jail
but beyond thathemust bind prisoners
over to the grand jury. This, in effect,
would be the duty of the municipal
judge, but he could sentence in
corrigible children to the state reform
school without being dependent upon
the district judge.
The system would, naturally, re-
ieve the district court of much of its
work. All lesser civil actions could
be decided and in this way it could dc
away with the lengthy docket usually
confronting the petit jurors. Thus the
county would be relieved of expense
and at the same time the court would
prove great convenience to the local
bar. "
To establish it, however, a special
act of the legislature would probably
be necessary. At the present time the
law provides for municipal courts in
cities having population of than
5000 and less than 5000 but New
Ulm is considerably beyond the latter
limit. Nevertheless the object is a
praiseworthy one and would warrant
missionary work among the repre-
sentatives and senator's. .5a..'. -

W. A. Gates, agent. of the state
board of control, says that many jails
in Minnesota neglect to comply with
the law requiring the classification of
prisoners. They are required to sepa-
rate the sexes, to keep prisoners under
Is away from the older ones, and to
keep each prisoner in his own cell if
the construction of the Jail will permit.
This last requirement is frequently
violated. Sheriffs will give several
prisoners the run of the corridor, per-
hitting them to play cards and tell of
their crimes, educating the younger
prisoners in misdeeds. Such a course
also leads to jail deliveries.

Granted Her a Divorce

3 Judge b. F. Weber made an order
Saturday morning granting divorce
to Mary Schiller from her husband,
Joseph M. Schiller. The parties are
residents of the township Of .Albin and
it will be remembered that Schiller
was bound over to the June grand
jury for non-support. Mrs. Schiller
asked for the separation on the
grounds of cruel and inhuman treat
ment and habitual drunkenness, and
was able to convince the court that
she had been wronged. :Alimony in
the sum of $500 was awarded her:

AS the prescrip tion business stands
today, it looks very much as though.
it were mere bait for the other branches.
I grant that proprie starry remedies are
in great demand and that the call for.
prescript may have faIlen off
somewhat But the drug who in
yestigates will learn that the number
filled is about the same one year as
another. Suppose that this number is
5000 and that the advance of 10 cents
per prescripti on7----on the average S
made: What is the net annual gain?
just 100000, without more drugs or
more time. This is a rightful premium
on your learning.
During my twenty -four years ex-5
perience in this locality I have filed
countless prescripti for persons all
over our commonwealth, and the great
trouble has been the differences exist
ing in prices. In two or three ounce
pr descriptions Of liquids I have found
the prices varying from Is cents to IS
cents. I know Of a local association
where the druggists were divided and
at sea as to what should be charged
on prescription work. They got to-
gether and agreed upon a minimum
scale. Why is this not possible
throughout the country if it is possible
in a local organization? f
sThe prices now charged were in
vogue four, five or ten years ago, and
since that time conditions have so
materially changed that it is advis-
able to meet them. Rents, in most in
stances, are higher; clerk hire is
higher; wholesale prices are higher
and in the face of this advance on the
expense side of our accounts we have
failed to raise our prices. In the
meantime foods have increased in
price about 30 per cent, fuel is about
20 per cent higher; while all other
necessities and luxuries are from 20
per cent to 100 per cent higher. Still,
the druggists have refused to meet
their requirements by asking more in
proportion for their services, and
their drugs. Physicians get more
for their services; the call for special
whose fees are inv ariably higher
lis increasing and the druggists of
the land must join the van or lose in
the commercial race

The county commissioners of this
county have very wisely concluded
that it will be policy to build a home
suitable for the care of the poor peo-
pie of the county, who are dependent
on the county for support. The present
quarters were in a sense an experiment
in the practice of keeping the poor to-
gether instead of the former way Of
paying money for their support to
those who took care of them. The
poor farm, as it is called, is very nicely
located, and there is sufficient ground
with it to allow the inmates to raise
what vegetables they need and the
method has so we'll commended itself
to the commissioners that they are
satisfied that it will be policy to have
a building erected large enough to
accommodate all. FL

Reports received by the Northern
Patio and the Great Northern roads
indicate that 10000 men will be needed
in the harvest fields Aug. l. Wages
will run as high as So a day. Owing
to the adoption of diversified farming
and the introduction of dairying,
regular hands are employed the year
round so that the demand from many
stations in Minnesota has fallen off.
Only eleven of the forty-fve Northern
Pacific stations which want hands are
in Minnesota. The Northern Pacific

Northern about 5000. 7es

The county commissioners have at
last made a move in the right direction
and commenced action towards Sc
curing a Jail building that will be in
keeping with the needs of the county.
The present place of retention has
been so frequently and persistently
condemned not only for it's Insecurity
but its unsanitary condition that the
commissioners were driven to this
course. 1t is we'll known that the
present Jail is remodeled from the old
court house, never was and never can
be made to fulfill the requirements of
jail. 1t has been of little or no ex-
pense to the county and therefore in
doing away with it but little will be
sacrificed. August 18th has been set
by the commissioners committee to
take final action in the matter and it
will be wisdom on their part if they
decide to have at least the foundation
of the structure laid this fall. 1t will
not only hasten the time of completion
n 4. s. 4, /. / E 8 . D. 8 4 = Z
but it will give a settled foundation
for the super structure to rest upon
when finally it is erected. The build
ing should be such as will meet the
requirements Of the county for all
time and be of such architectural de-
sign that it will add to the beauty of
that part Of the city which the old jail
has so long disgraced. It is unfortu-
nate that the commissioners of other
years did not establish jail fund so
that this exigency could have been met
without the necessity Of issuing bonds,
however the county is abund antly able
to put up the building and no delay
should be permitted in beginning the
construction. .3.s

Many of the papers throughout the
state find time and space to make
notice of kickers who complain about
their papers, when in truth the papers
have no license to make such COM
plant. A kicker is the best friend a
newspaper has, and if an editor knows
he is giving his readers value received
for their money he will have no rea-
son to complain. Too many papers
in the state are in the kindergarten
stage and their editors, who should
command the respect and esteem of
the community, are looked upon as
boys having a newspaper plant as a
plaything. When you see a news

too small or the proprietor is I'M

NEAR ANTOINE, WASH.
Was the 13-Year-oid Daughter Of
Sheriff Of Antoine County-She was
Waylaid on Way to Sunday School
Suspicion Points to Philip Hamilton,
a Rancher-Lynch Talk Is Heard
on All Sides.

Antoine, Wash, Aug. 4.-Lying in a
pool of her own blood, her clothing
torn and disarranged, while her brain
is exposed by terrible wound in the
head, the little body Of Mabel Richards
was found in the woods on Montgom-
cry ridge, three miles from town. Sus-
picion points to Philip Hamilton, a
rancher, who lives alone on the breaks
of the Grand Ronde river near town.
He is under arrest and sullenly re-
fuses to talk beyond simple denial
Of guilt. The whole town and neigh
borhood are worked up over the trag-
edy.
Mabel Richards was 13 years old, a
daughter of r. II. Richards. sheriff of
Asotin county. Searchers secured the
country for miles in all directions, all
night and day until the corpse was
found. A coroner's jury is in session
tonight.
Sheriff Richards recently returned
from California and has been in town
while his family was camping in the
woods near Parrish Bros sawmill, two
miles from town. Sunday morning the
children started for Sunday school to
be held at Kelley's schoolhouse. At a
point in the road Mabel left the party,
saying she would take a short cut to
the schoolhouse. She was not seen
alive again.
Arriving at the schoolhouse and not
finding Mabel. the other children gave
the alarm and a search was soon insti-
tuted.
The body was found in a thicket.
Nearby was club covered with mat
ted hair and blood. Marks of a strug-
gle were evident on all sides and the
girls clothing was badly torn. A deep
wound in the back of the head showed
the death blow. The girl had been out
ragged.

With walls and ceilings sparkling

huge rooms, wide passage ways, dark
and mysterious places, while here and

pool Of water, a wonderful cave has

Reports state that it has been pene-

half mile, but still the explorers have
been unable to find the end and how
much further it does extend or what
new wonders it contains still further
back is to be determined by later
search.
Already two large compartments
each about 300 feet square have been
found, connected by a wide passage
way. The cave is said to be in a gran
ite formation, which, IL correct, would
make the existence Of such huge
cavity appear all the more remarkable
