editor of the Weeping Water Herald, failed
to appear before the Cass county board
commissioner in this city as requested,
but in a supplement of the Herald strikes
back at the board thus:
1--WE realize the day Of repentance has
passed. The date for our appearance at the
court Of last resort has come and gone, and
the three days Of grace likewise. The dogs
Of war are now turned loose upon us. Had
we presented ourselves before your hon
ored sires and begged your forgiveness, the
club Of libel would have been held over us
SO that no matter what this most compe-
tent and honorable board might do, we dare
not peep. You know that IL we came before
you we would have been the butt of every
newspaper in the state and county. You
also know that a man with a spark OF
principle in his body would not stand to
be whipped into line in any such manner.
IT'S said you will make it cost him dear,
and we reply. we consider being a man and
retaining our self respect is worth more
than the price"
He then proceeds to ask the board many
questions.

DUoUETTE AND HIS RECORD
Charge Of Bigamy Threatened ~ Con-
viction for Perjury
Fails.

FHEmONlt NeOst april b.-lbpeclhIJ-
William Duquette. who is awaiting his pre-
liminary examination here on the charge Of
perjury in the libel suit Of Martha Daniels
against Hammond Bros, appears to have q
record in the matrimonial line which will
probably send him TO the penitentiary
should he escape conviction in the perjury
case.
This morning a Mrs. Duquette from Lin
coin arrived in the city. She lie Of the opin-
ion that she is his wife No. 2. While COM
ing east in the custody Of Sheriff Bauman,
Duquette did not appear much concerned
about the perjury charge. but intimated
that he had other troubles. He practically
admitted having a wife living in Walla
Walla, Wash, from whom he was not d.
vorced, and also his marriage to Miss Mag
nusson in Holdrege last winter. 1t seems
that Immediately after he took his sudden
departure from Fremont last October he
abandoned Mrs. Duquette No. 2, and after
floating the country a short time married
Mrs. Duquette No. 3 in Holdrege.
II has also been learned that Duquette
has a bad record in Iowa. He was impli-
Gated with Hans and Porter In the cases
brought in Harrison county, Iowa, for the
alleged burglary OF an Elkhorn freight car.
He came to Iowa from Washington, leaving
Mrs. Duquette there.
He is a hard-looking customer and 1t is
thought an all-round criminal. Sheriff
Bauman says that Duquette employed a
lawyer to resist the requisition proceedings,
but the attorney did not get around In time
Just as the train was pulling out the attor-
ney appeared with some papers and rushed
up to the car with them. Bauman hustled
his man, whom he had securely handcuffed
on board and left the lawyer with his pa
pers on the platform.
Duquette's preliminary examination has
been set for Friday next, and should he bt
discharged he will be arrested again imme.
