MOODY is INDICATED.

The prosecution failed to prove a
single charge of dishonesty against
Ex-C Congressman Moody, and he
was acquitted by the jury before
the trial was finished. Yester-
days Oregonian says: "The result
is just what every fair-minded
person supposed it would be, and
Just what it ought to be. In the
testimony for the prosecution
throughout the trial the malicious
intent was manifest. 1t is a pain
full matter. Mr.. Moody had done
no wrong, nothing even colorably
wrong. AS everybody who knows
him had anticipated, it comes out
that the accusation was worked up
by coterie of personal enemies, OF
malignant political opponents, and
implacable rivals in business. This
fury, of long standing, found its
elimination in the effort to bring
dishonor upon Mr.. Moody's name
1t was a 'trumped-up' case, from
motives fully revealed during the
trial. In the entire history of Ore
gon there has been nothing like il
hitherto, and for the honor Of
human nature we may hope that
nothing like it will ever be at
tempted again"

PASSED TO HER REST
Mrs. Robert daynOr SucCumbs
Long Illness of Consumption.

Mrs. Robert Gaynor died Of con-
sumption at the home Of her parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Abel Uglow, in
this city, Wednesday, November 1s,
1903, aged 26 years. Mrs. Gaynor
began to fail in health about two
years ago, and her ailment soon de-
veloped into q well-deflned case of
consumption. She suffered greatly
from hemorrhages, and for several
months preceding her death was un-
able to leave her room. About three
weeks ago she began to grow worse
rapidly, and the end came quietly and
peacefully at 8 o'clock Wednesday
morning.
Mrs. Gaynor, whose maiden name
was Clara Uglow, was born in Polk
county, and was educated in the
Dallas public school and LaCreole
Academy. She was married to Robert
Gaynor, May 2, 1900. She possessed a
kind disposition, and during the long
months Of her sickness she was cheer
full and uncomplaining. She did not
fear death, and was ready to so when
the summons came. Her amiable and
gentle ways endeared her to all, and
her early death is mourned by a wide
circle Of friends.
Mrs. Gaynor was a member OF
Naomi Chapter, No. %, Order OF
Eastern Star, and her burial will be
conducted by that order. The funeral
services will be held at the house at
O'Clock this afternoon, and interment
will take place in the Odd Fellows
cemetery.

An advertisement of the Page
Standard Woven Wire Fence had to be
omitted from this issue on account OF
a cut of the fence not being ready for
the printer. u. s. Grant, the agent in
Dallas, guarantees his fencing to be
twice as strong as the common makes.
He furnishes the tools and helps put
up the fence, something, he says, that
no other company will do. Mr., Grant
has his goat pasture enclosed with
this fence. and finds it satisfactory IN
every particular. Farmers interested
are requested to write him for cata'

The Highly ReprehensfbIe Conduct OF
President Droppers.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
Garrett Droppers. president of the South
Dakota State University, seems TO be
veritable monster OF iniQuity. He Ia on trial
before the Board of Regents for immoral
ity," and two OF the charges or specihca-
tions appear to be sustained by impressive
testimony. A state senator, Gunderson,
testifies that he was present at a dinner
which Droppers gave to United States Sem
ator Kittridge and was greatly shocked 10
find a glass OF claret at each plate" He
considered this an immoral act" but
whether the immortality consisted in there
being only one glass apiece or In claret
being served instead OF whisky, Is not dis
closed. Cumbersome suffering was acute
and there must have been strong reason
for IL.
Another specification is that Droppers
used two bottles of beer. at a chafing-dish
party in his own house. in the composition
of a Welsh rabbit. The natives OF the
town. being accustomed 10 the use OF milk
in such compositions, missed the "ropy''
habituated. and were consequently indig-
nent as well as shocked. They knew that
anything so grateful TO the palate and 90
easily masticated must be Immoral"
Other specifications are that Droppers
once read an essay OF Emerson, instead
of a prayer, at chapel exercises. and that.
having been educated at Harvard he has q
leaning toward Unitarianism. IL looks very
black for Droppers. He seems to be what
the Scotchman called "a regular deevfL"
would be capable of almost any crime. The
only thing for the regents to do is 20 lead
him 10 the eastern border OF the State. with
his face toward that hotbed Of immortality,
Harvard University, and, giving him q
vigorous push, tell him to go and never
divorce. is no place for a moral iconoclast
of his reckless type.
