FILED REMONSTRANCE.
Waitsburg Business Men and Taxpay
ers Do Not Want the Stubble-
field Home.

Attorney Richard Ormsbee OF
Waitsburg. representing the Waits
burg Commercial club and taxpayers
of the east end of the county, today
filed a remonstrance bearing l46
names with the board of county com
misSoners protesting against the
boards appropriating $4,000 toward
the proposed Stubblefeld home.
Mr.. Ormsbee in presenting the re-
monstrance stated that in his opinion
the board had no right to appropriate
the amount asked for and intimated
that if the sum was appropriated the
Waitsburg Commercial club would
begin injunction proceedings against
Auditor Honeycutt to restrain MIN
from issuing the warrant and to pre-
vent Treasurer Hawley from paying
it. Although members Of the board
are reticent in regard to the matter
it is generally believed that the pro-
posed measure will be turned down.

One week from today Eugene Lor-

succeed A. F. Statter as editor and

Although the management OF the
Union has always kept up bold face
and cheerful demeanor, it has long
been evident to any observer Of good
business judgment that the paper
lacked a great deal of paying its way
and that it was kept on its feet by
drawing upon its owners plethoric

he is in possession of the office he be-

is surmised that he instructed his

Washington Oct. 5.-A man VINO
later gave the name of Peter Elliott
of Milwaukee and his occupation as
a machinist attempted to gain en-
trance to the White House this morn

see the president he became violent
and fought desperately. He was armed
the latter on Doorkeeper Cisle, in
flicting a bad scalp wound and also a
cut on the hand. Elliott was remov-
ed to the emergency hospital and
later to the police station. An hour
earlier he had demanded to see the
president. When asked his business
he claimed he had been sent for and
then said the president wanted to see
him for fun. AS he seemed harmless
he was not detained. Yesterday he
attracted attention by trying to reach

turned away by the ushers.
A search of Elliott revealed a load
ed revolver and pair Of long-bladed
shears. He denies that he intended
to kill the president. His language is
that of a foreigner.
1t is learned that Elliott wrote a
long incoherent letter to President
Roosevelt last week enclosing his
photograph He said he would call
this week to see the president pri-
vately. Secretary Loeb opened the
letter and considered it sufficiently
dangerous to show all the door keep
ers and special officers the photo

When Elliott called the second time
at the White House this morning
DoOrkeeper Cisele recognized him and
invited him inside 10 take a seat.
Elliott sat moment and then start
ed down the lobby f1ourishing knife,
which Cisele at once attempted to
secure. Cisela would have been
worsted, but the chief usher who is
Stone, old and muscular overcame Ell
lott after a hard fight. After being
apparently subGUeu he was placed IN
police van where he again became
violent and attacked the TWO men.

CiseIn thinks his wound came from
broken glass.
The president at the time Of the
encounter was in his office in the
west wing of the White House and
knew nothing Of the affair until it
was all over.
He is perfect type of the an
archist He talks in q rambling way
and the doctors believe he is insane.
He says he came from Baltimore last
Thursday and met the president IN
church. He says the president want.
him to marry Alice. He claims the
royal blood of Sweden flows in his
veins and that an attempt was made
on his life in Minneapolis from
where he was compelled to fee to
avoid death. He insists that he is
the presidents personal friend and
that he carried weapons only for self
protection.
The address given by Elliott is an
obscure lodging house. The proprie-

paid IS cents more. He mentioned
two men who came to the city with
