Our heart went out to Parker's Prairie
when we read the wall of woe from that
village twenty-five years marooned in the.
green country, because the 500 did not
locate its station in the village. We
thought Of the odds against the village
in its fight against great corporation
and we pitied it. When we thought Of
the hardship Of the Parker's Prairiers in
DESERVING their lovely village Of the plain
we were on the verge of weeping. But
when we learned that the company didn't
put the station in the town because there
was lake in the way, and that the depot
is only four or five blocks from the main
street Of the village, our grief was as
suaged. The 500, we understand, de-
clares that it has no en11nity for the old
village. which ought to continue to -four

if Of Teller county regarding the acts
Of the military in this district have
advised that the civil authorities have
the right to serve no process except a
writ Of habeas corpus upon the officers
OF the national guard while the latter
are on duty i'm the field. The attorneys
also advised against summOning a
posse COmitatus to enforce any order
Of the court which the military might
defy.
The cases discussed were those of the
capias issued for the arrest of Lieu
tenant Hartung for shooting at Emil

alias warrant TO bring Miners Union
President G.. @. Kennison into the jus
tees court on the day set for the hear
ing Of the charge against him for as
saulting a nom union miner with a
deadly weapon.
Mr.. Thomas said today: The mill
tary officers are gust as amenable TO a
writ of habeas corpus as a civil officer
is and they must obey it or be in con-
tempt If the court holds that the
prisoner must be released or turned
over TO the sheriff and the order is dis
Obeyed il is his duty to issue an at
tachmeUt for the party in contempt.
Such an order is a part of the habess
corpus writ and cannot be lawfully
defied. since martial law is not i'm effect.
However. it would be useless in the
present case for the sheriff to attempt
10 enforce such an order by force If
resisted. IT would not only be ineffeC-
tual but would result in bloodshed
which would be more unfortunate than
the mere failure to enforce an order"

Sort Of Monarchy.

Judge Seeds this afternoon over
ruled the motion to quash and
ordered the prisoners turned over to the
civil authorities. The court said that
ne could not subscribe to the doctrine
advanced by the respondent, that the
military was supreme and not amena-
ole TO the court; because to do so
would mean TO overthrow free govern
ment and substitute a monarchy.
The court said that the question in

calling aroops constitute a justification
of the arrest? He held that civil law
had not been overthrow i'm Teller
