King Edwards Allowance.

A rumor is gaining some currency that
a proposal to increase the kings allowance
will be brought before parliament short
ly and in view Of the great popularity of
his majesty and the general conviction
that his influence has been of the great
est benefit, both at home and abroad, it
is expected that commons will offer no
objection.
The annual grant to the king at present
is 10000, of which f125.S is for salaries
of the household and retired allowances,
f133 600 for the expenses of the household,
10000 for works, and 1920 for royal
bounty, aims and special services. OF the
total, $4,000 is also assigned to the queen.
Considerable economy has been effected
since his majesty's accession, but the great
activity displayed by the king, which Is
undoubtly proving immense incentive
to trade, Is proving very costly. The labor
party may be expected to make an cutlery
against any proposal to increase the royal
grant but the Irish members will support
reasonable addition. l.. H. MOORE.

amount of it seems to be a subject of
wide speculation. We have over.
heard various estimations, ranging
from four inches to two feet. But per-
haps the young man who got the wa
gon-box full going from Willmar to
his home near Kandiyohi Lake, is as
near correct as any of the rest. Be
this as it may, we had it in wholesale

Now, gentlemen ofthe jury, I believe,
! 90 firmly believe, you could better
believe man picked up drunken on
the street than that young wretch.
You cannot doubt his motive. One
witness said he used the words .sThe
old stinker! I will get even with him.,
Gentlemen of the jury, can you trust
witness of that kind? If we had
been in the district court where the
court has such authority, 1 should
have asked that the case be dismissed
Tor the reason that the city does not
prove that an offsnse has been COM
mltted. The state must prove con-
clusively, every step, that liquor was
sold. All the city proved was that
Mr.. Bryant had handed this man
Vein hask in the hotel Office, but
where that whisky came fir ON thew
don't prove. Now it was in evidence
that Mr.. Bryant took flask and went
out through the back door. 1t was
brought out that this back door leads
out on platform into the rear yard.
Is there anything to prove that Bry-
ant sold that whisky? No. Let ma
presume again that Bryant went out
through that back door to some other
place, bought that whisky and handed
1t to Vein. That story is as good as
tie other. If that was the case Bry-
ant Is not guilty of selling whisky.
There is difference between selling
and buying. You can't sell drop of
whisky in Willmar, but you can buy q
hundred thousand barrels if you have
the money to pay for it. I state to
you right here, upon my honor as an
attorney, that if Mr.. Bryant did go
out, purchased that whisky and
handed it to Vein he did not commit
an offense. I ask the county attorney
II the purchase of whisky is an offense-
against law. We said that if defend
ant sold whisky he is guilty, but there
is not an iota of evidence to prove it.
The evidence must be absolutely
proven beyond reasonable doubt. Ia
there an iota of evidence that BRYANT
sold whisky? Presume that Ander-
sons story is true. Anderson is g.
boarder dismissed from the house for
non-payment of board. In order to
get even he gives notice: 81 will get
even with Bryant" The county attor-
ney told you you have no business to
take into consideration the standing
a man has in the community. I trust
you TO say whom you will believe, Mr..
Bryant or that stranger. Whose story
is most reasonable? Mr.. Bryant,
when I asked him if he wanted to 20
on the stand, said: II never sold
anybody a flask of whisky"
It is your duty to protect Mr.. Bry-
ant or any other accused man against
q false and fraudulent accus alton.
This is the third day I have been
standing before jury of II men. In
every case there has been a disagree
ment. Now gentlemen, do let US have
a verdict Let 1t be said in Willmar
that man can get justice, can have 4
verdict from a jury of his peers How:
far is this going to go unless you Il
men can reach decision and give us
q verdict? I believe you will do it
and trust you to give us full justice.
The case was given to the jury at
ILLS a. m. The jury stayed out until
10 O'Clock p M, finally reporting that
it could not agree. A report stated

didn't know at that time, but found it
out afterwards. I supposed it was
because Bryant had refused to let him
enter his hotel until he had settled his
account. He had said you can't come
in here and eat another bite with me

foolishly.

The Train Dispatcher.
From The New YORK Commercial.

From the New York Commercial.
Few people making railroad journey
realize how human life and safety from ac-
cident depend upon a single individual and
the corps of men serving under him as
through the silent medium of the electric
current he directs the movement of trains
bearing human beings and freight to des-
tinatious.
That individual is the chief train dis
patcher, and the assistants who do his
bidding are those who literally hold human
lives in the hollow of their hands.
The positions of these men are fraught
with the gravest responsibility, exactions
that strain mind and nerve and that call
for not only prompt action when necessity
requires, but the keenest and most mature
Judgment Circumstances and conditions
are constantly arising which preclude all
expectation of idle moments or relief from
the intensity that sense of duty and pos
sible danger imposes.
The only recompense in view, in addi-
ton to the comparatively meagre compen-
satiou derived from the railroad corpora
ton, is the knowledge that nearly every
superintendent, general superintendent and
many general managers, as well as a few
presidents have risen to their high stations
from the ranks of the train dispatcher and
the opportunity may come to them to gain
a similar reward for proved ability and duty
well performed.
The duty of a train dispatcher is to reg
ulate the movement of all trains -passen-
ger, freight, special and work trains, etc.,
