Mr.. Editor: Please allow me to say

am not opposed to the move now nor

COUNTRY BANKS swINDLED.
Forged Checks Cashed By Two Banks.

s1orSeu Cnecks Casheu by Two BANKS
On Monday the 18th inst, there ap-
peared at the International Bank in this
village, what Banker May supposed, was
young lady who taught school in the
Smithback district west of Deerfield,
who presented a check purported to
have been drawn by Thore Smithback,
for Sl43, and asked Mr. May if he would
cash it. Mr.. May in his rush did not
carefully examine the check and thought
the person presenting the check was the
young lady who taught school in that
district and it was all right and gave her
the money. The check was sent to the
banking houses in Chicago and thence
to the Deerfield bank where it was read
lily discovered that it was forgery and
payment protested. The check was re-
turned to Chicago and thence to the
bank here, where, upon its being closely
scrutinized it was easily detected forg-
cry. The check was made payable to
bearer and was not even dated, which
Mr.. May overlooked it but made the
presenter thereof indorse it on the back,
which she readily did, signing the name
of "Hennie Hanson" Mr. May called in
Marshal Crump who commenced an in
vestigation and discovered that young
man aged about % or 80 years by the
name of Nels Stenjum, who resided in
the neighborhood of Mr.. Smithback's 8,
was in town that day and had inquired
at a number of places for Bank Of
Deerfeld check. He also learned where
he had obtained one and also that a
young man answering his description
went to the hotel and rented room.
Landlord Nelson says when he asked for
room he had a large bundle under his
arm. An hour or two later when he
again thought of the young fellow. he
went to the room but it was empty.
Putting one thing and another together
the banker and the marshal have come
to the conclusion that this young man
was, the lady school teacher for whom
Mr. May cashed the check.
1t has also since been learned that
this same young StenJem forged Mr..
Prescott's name, who resides on Liberty
Prairie, to note and sold the note to
the bank at Sun Prairie. He also mort
gagged crop of tobacco which be claim
ed to have raised, but which never grew,
to Andrew Hampstead of this village.
The young fellow, a day or 80 afterwards
and just previous to his -oing out to
Minnesota, exhibited roll of bills in
Deerfeld, much to the surprise Of those
who saw him and wondered how he was
able to gather 80 much money. The cir
cumstances are such that there is little
question of doubt as to whom the school
teacher was who could charm Mr.. May
long enough to get check cashed with
out being Notwithstanding News.

Southern Interurban Franchise.

The proposed franchise which the
Southern Interug ban Railway Co. desire
the city council of Edgerton to grant as
a part of the Madison GAINESVILLE electric
system is published in another column
OF this paper. The streets which they
desire rights upon are: "Lawton street,
High street, Quigley street, Indian Ford
road from city limits on the south to
Front street: Main street, Victoria road,
and Albion road, Front street, Rollin
street, Swift street, Albion street, Ran
dolph street and Edgerton and Albion
road from end of Randolph street to city
limits, any other street or avenue in the
%city of Edgerton." It will be observed
that the company desires to cover every
approach to and from the city so as to
give them the choice of any route they
may elect. The council will probably be
able to secure more specific definition
of the route to be taken before agreeing
to franchise and will carefully consider
the provisions granted. We ask that all
property owners read the proposed ordi-
nance and be prepared to give the conn
ell their aid and advice in the matter.
We understand the company is anxious
to have the councils at Stoughton and
.Edgerton act upon the franchise as early
as possible so that work on the proposed
line may be commenced without delay
and as much of the road constructed
this season as is possible to do.

Dear Sir:-I wish to correct a para
graph that appeared in yonr last weeks
paper, copied from the GAINESVILLE Ga
zette, in reference to the case of Mrs.
Julia Swinson where itispeaks of Swim
son as ''worthless husband" This is a
mistake. He was not worthless He
was a sober, industrious man; kind
father and good neighbor. Financial
difficulties and a long series of peculiarly
aggravating domestic troubles drove him
20 desperation and he left his family.
No one knows positively what has be-
come of him. JUSTICE.

In an interview with a Record Rep.
resentative this morning, Charles Leo
Morrison of the firm Of Morrison
Brothers expressed himself as hearth.
ly in favor of the early closing of the
retail stores of the town during the
heated season. During the summe
months he believes that the clerks
should have the evenings to them
selves, and the trading public could
easily during these months form the
habit of doing their trading before
six o'clock. Mr.. Morrison thinks the
stores should close at 6 O'Clock each
afternoon except Saturday afternoon.

in the matter, and you'd gladly
