Story of Bribery,

St. Louis Grand Jury Investigating
Story of Bribery.
!, st. Louis, Jan. 13.-Investigation
into the rumor that a new combine
has been formed in the house of dele
gates to secure Doodle money has, it
is alleged, produced the information
that $4,000 bribe was solicited to
insure the passage of a bill authoriz-
ing the establishment of a pneumatic
tube service for the transmission of
merchandise, letters and express
packages between the. union station
and the worlds fair grounds.
It is alleged that the attempt to Sc
cure the bribe money was made with
in the past two months. A man, who
was formerly an attache of St. Louis
court, but is now under penitentiary
sentence for conviction of participa-
tion in naturalization frauds, is alleged
to have acted for councilman and
collected the bribe from a member of
the firm constructing the proposed
pneumatic tube system.
1t is alleged that controversy over
the amount resulted in an agreement
on $4,000 providing the bill was
passed. The money was not paid,
however, and the bill was reconsider
ed. The grand jury is investigating
the matter.

Gold and Copper at swanville.

1t seems probable that Minnesota,
the ''bread basket of the world and
the home of the dairy COW, may soon
develop along other lines-if what we
read relative to the Swanville gold
find contains proper element of truth.
Last weeks Swanville News com
mented as follows: The finding of
gold ore some time ago by Olaf John
son has resulted in considerable ex-
citement and much prospecting in the
hills in the Pine Lake neighborhood,
and Saturday another interesting bit
of news was handed out, to the effect
that Abraham Johnson, near neigh
Dor of O. j., had discovered valuable
deposits of similar gold ore on his
farm. He sent two specimens, one to
st. Cloud and one to Minneapolis for
analysis. The report of both assay
lists were exactly the same, showing
nearly as much gold as did the rock
on Olaf Johnson's place, besides being
rich in copper. This makes the evil
dence of gold in paying quantities in
those hills conclusive. The evidence
with the fact that several other parties
have found specimens of rich copper
ore while prospecting in those hills,
adds to the theory that the whole
range of hills. extending from the
Lake Beauty neighborhood northwest
of this town to the Pine Lake COM
munity south of us, is rich with gold
and copper ore.
1t has long been known that copper
existed there, for on several occasions
in the past farmers have picked up
pieces of the ore in different places.
Some fifteen years ago large piece
of almost pure copper was found on
the Kamphare place, and no longer
ago than last spring VIM. Joseph ex-
hibited chunk of almost pure copper,
weighing twenty pounds at the village.
which he had found. Heretofore no
one has given enough credence to these
tlnds to make an investigation but
now that the present discoveries have
proven SO tempting a thorough investi-
cation will result as soon as weather
conditionywill permit. .--Sauk Centre
