Death Of MARGARET Hunter.

A message from Mortified received
in this city last Thursday announces
the death of Miss Margaret Hunter,
formerly q teacher In the Willmar
public schools. Death was due to
that dread disease, consumption, with
which the deceased had been suffering
for some time. The young lady
passed away on Wednesday morning
at 7:45, at her home in Sciota, near
the city OF Northdeld. The funeral
occurred on Saturday afternoon.
Miss Hunter was we'll known In this
city, where she has a large circle OF
friends who will learn OF her death
with much regret. She taught In the
Willmar schools two successive years
and was reelected to teach the pres
ent year, but was obliged to decline
on account OF her failing health. She
returned to her home in the spring,
and ever since leaving here had been
gradually growing weaker, While
the news of her death had been mo.
mentarily expected, yet It comes as a
sad message to the many friends which
the young lady gained during her
residence here.
Miss Hunter taught in both the Sew
enth and Eighth grades of the Central
building, and proved to be q very eff.
cient teacher. Teachers and pupils
alike will mourn her death.

The first regular meeting of the

Recitation. "a Stylish Congregation, -
Mrs. Frances Morrow.
Each member was asked to write the

amusing and provoked much merri-
ment..
The following ladies were appointed
as the program committee for the next
nesting: Mrs. Stanford, Mrs. STAINS.
berry and Mrs. Sanderson. Among
the features on the program will be q
vocal solo by Miss Florence Porter.

Questions were written by those
present and read by the secretary
Miss Haley. These will be answered
at the next meeting.
The club adjourned to meet the las,

It's members studying all the various
phases of this important question
AS the organization grows older many
topics will be taken up for discussion
With the literature and instructions

enough to possess a police adminis-

True, we will have a class of law
breakers that will attempt time and
again to conduct their nefarious busi-
ness, but the same may be said of all
crimes. There are those who will
commit murder, but We have prohibi.

feet in illegal liquor selling also.

LAWYER May Be DlSBARRED
John Z. Byrass. tho Well Known At.
totnsy, Will Have to Face
Charges Before Su.
pPemo Court.

Proceedings have been commenced
before the supreme court to disbar
John T. Byrnes. The papers we're
served last Saturday and Mr.. Byrnes
must appear at the next term Of the
supreme court to answer the charges.
We are not able to publish the &C.
cusations in full, but it is bruited
about that several OF the charges arise
out OF the Eden Valley hanging case.
Rumor has it that Mr.. Byrnes is. &C.
oused OF extorting money from the
defendants in that case during the
progress of the trial after having
agreed to defend the parties for q cer-
tain sum, and demanding and receiv.
ing $50 to let q certain witness re-
main at home. He is also accused OF
retaining money belonging TO his
nNentss gehinh As ha a coll lleoteta; t ~;
pearing on both sides Of q case and
OF failing to appear, and OF allowing
q judgment to be entered by default
against his client and afterwards en-
tering judgment for costs on the
default and enforcing the same and
pooketing the proceeds. This is not
all. 1t Is rumored that there are
seven charged in the accusation.
Nearly all of the members of the
local bar seem to be conversant with
the charges, and while not talking for
publication, are of the opinion that
they are of . more serious nature.
II the charges are established, MIR.
Byrnes will be deprived of the privi-
lege OF continuing in. the practice OF
law IL this state.
The proceedings are instituted and
conducted before the supreme court
by the secretary OF the state board OF
examiners in law. But We have 1t
from pretty good authority that Alva
r. Hunt acted as the attorney for
local parties in laying the matter be-
fore the board.-Litchfield Saturday

A choir has been organized with
Prof. Hegstrom as leader. Until fur
ther notice, it will meet for practice
Wednesdays and Saturdays from 5 to
6 o'clock.
The band has organized and the fol-
lowing will serve as officers during
the year: President, o. T. Klovstad;
vice president, Melvin Grangaard;
treasurer, Carl Goulson; secretary,
Peter Steen.
The students had one of their so.
cials last Saturday evening, and judg-
ing by the number of young people
very few were absent. The hall proved
entirely too small, especially when a
grand march was announced.
The Senior and Junior classes must
have taken a bad cold, as they are un.
able to attend their meetings. 1t is
to be hoped that the weather will soon
repent and turn mild, thereby causing
q corresponding change in the Juni-
ors and Seniors.
The "Osseo" Literary Society has
proven its interest in the welfare Of
the chemical laboratory by placing at
it's disposal S25 to be used for the pur.
pose of purchasing necessary appa-
ratus. AS the class in chemistry has
for some time been laboring under
difficulties on account OF lack Of ap-
paratus the appropriation OF the So
ciety was most heartily welcomed by
the pupils and the teacher In charge
The celebration OF the "Osseo" an
niversary has always proven itself
one of the most important events OF
the school year and the same will
doubtless be true also this year. The
membership of the society Is at pres
ent very small and consequently the
work falls on fewer hands, but SO far
no one has been found who registers
''kicks" even though he has been put
on two or three different committees
and it is that kind of members the So
ciety wants.

HUGH McCUNE. - -,
Mr.. McCune said: In looking At
the financial side Of this question, un-
less very careful one Is apt to be mis-
led. The price At which private enter
prise furnishes public utilities in
cludes every cost which the public has
to pay. The cities of Chicago, New
York, Philadelphia, Grand Rapids
and Minneapolis were cited as cases
in which graft had been unearthed.
The relation of graft to municipal
ownership was simply one of multi
piled opportunities.

Mr.. Gilbertson In closing for the
affirmative declared: We proved cor
ruption existed under private and that
it would be improved under public
ownership. The story Of Philadel-

cipal ownership was fully told and
the speaker declared that the circum-
stances In this case were the strongest
kind Of An argument for the affirm
alive. he said that the statistics
given out by private corporations are
absolutely unreliable. He wished to
cali the attention of the judges to
the fact that Francisco, whose book
seemed to be authority and was quoted
by all the speakers in the negative,
was q corporation attorney and there
fore all arguments based upon his
statements should have no weight.
