Several Interesting Addresses on
Closing Day.

several lnNeFeSNAhk AuuEehHeH On
Closing Day.
The Western Iowa Editorial association
brought it's midsummer meeting to a close
yesterday with two interesting sessions, at
which the attendance was somewhat
greater than on Friday. At the close Of
the afternoon session a number OF the
members took advantage Of the oppor-
tunity TO visit Lake Manawa, while others
took the evening trains for their respec-
tive homes. While the attendance was
not as large as had been expected. the
meeting, however, was declared a success
in every other respect
At the morning session ]. A. Hoffman,
a business man of Onawa, gave an inter-
esting and practical talk on Local Adver-
Using" Mr.. Hoffman took the position
that country merchants ought TO advertise
in their local papers in order to compete
with the catalogue houses. In such ad-
vertising. he said. they ought to set forth
their prices and make comparisons with
those OF the catalogue, houses. Taking
space in a local paper merely for the pur-
pose Of assisting a home newspaper, he
contended, was simply throwing good
money away. Every merchant. he said,
should advertise with a definite pUrn
Newspapers, he urged. constituted shc
advertising medium by far.
H. E Deater OF the Shenandoah Sentinel
Post, in speaking on 1.-THE Linotype"
! recommended the installation OF the ma
chine In every we'll conducted newspaper
composing room. not only as a matter Of
economy in the long run, but because they
produce 50 much better work than type
set by hand.
! Independent Journalism was the sub
| jet OF an able paper by f. c. Clark OF
/ the Red Oak Sun, who contended that II
was possible for an editor to publish a
paper without allowing his political ties
| to dominate his editorials. In the discus
sion which followed some Of the members
present contended that no man could edit
a paper without leaning toward the politi-
cal party with which he was affiliated.
! The feature OF the afternoon session was
! a lengthy but in the main interesting talk
! by d. NJ. Harris the veteran journalist OF
Missouri Valley, on "Forty-two Years In
Iowa Journalism" Mr.. Harris description
difficulties which beset the pioneer editor
in western Iowa was particularly interest
ing and at times amusing.
A l. Bixby OF the Lincoln Journal was
a visitor at the afternoon session. Among
the arrivals yesterday were f. c. Mccarthy
OF the Elliott Graphic, D. NJ Harris OF the
Missouri Valley Times, A. c. Ross Of the
Audubon Republican, F. c. Clark OF the

The ST. Andrews Society Of this city
has observed the birthday of Burns for
nearly fifty years. The occasion is al
ways held sacred by every Scotchman,
but this year the plans are more elab-
crate than ever and a celebration that
promises to eclipse any of the former
ones has been arranged.
The programme will include a varied
collection of musical and literary pieces,
including some of the choicest lyrics
of the immortal Burns. Several lead
ing singers have volunteered their serv-
ices. A pleasing feature of the pro-
gramme will be readings from the
works of Scotland's leading men of
letters.

in the Dunsmuir case, which is 60
ing on before Commissioner Courtenay
Bennett at the British consulate.
Dwyer refuses to answer the interro-
cations of Sir Charles except in a way
that suits himself. Sir Charles, chat
fing at the cvasive replies, asked the
witness: Cannot you answer my ques-
tions with either yes or 'no'?''
Dwyer replied: Il think by this
time, Sir Charles. that you ought to
know and understand that 1 will only
answer your questions in a manner
in which l think right and which ex-
presses my own ideas on the subject" +"
Sir Charles responded: 'In our
courts you would be compelled to give
direct answers. 1 am sure they would
have checked you up at least twenty
times during the evidence you have
been giving here"
Attorney Wheeler remarked that

E. c. Hayes Sues Sisters to Cancel
Conveyance of His Interest I'm
Parents Estates.

Edward c. Hayes, who pleads that
he was almost bereft of reason by
constant indulgence in liquor. has sued
his two sisters, Agnes and Cecilia
Hayes. for the cancellation of an in
strument by which he transferred a
$500 interest in the estates of his
father and mother for $1,000 and a
promise of a home for a lifetime. He
says that for several weeks prior to
November 5 last, when the convey
ance was signed. he was constantly
under the influence of intoxicants and
during that period his sisters, profess
ing the greatest devotion and solicit
tude, falsely represented that it would
be for his best interests if he would
sell his share in the estates to them
for $1,000 and they would always pro-
vide home for him. He signed the
paper and got the $1,000, but says the
home has not been provided.

WYMAN WANTS
A NEW TRIAL
Files a Motion With Judge
Lawlor Giving Seventeen
Reasons for Granting 1t

Charles Wyman, convicted of fraudu-
lently voting at the last primary elec-
ton. appeared for sentence in Judge
Lawlor's court yesterday. When the
case was called Attorney Countryman
filed a motion for new trial and an
affidavit by the defendant giving seven
teen reasons why the motion should be
granted.
Wyman alleges among other things
that the verdict was contrary to the
law and the evidence; that the court
erred in decisions on questions of law
and by misdirection to the jury: that
the jury received evidence outside of
the court and was guilty of miscon-
duct; that the special attorneys for the
prosecution and the Judge were guilty
of legal misconduct, and that there
! was newly discovered evidence.
The defendant charges that on Satur-
day, January IA, between 11:15 a. M,
when the District Attorney concluded
his argument, and 2 D. M, when the
Judge delivered his charge to the jury,
George T. Wright and John A. Hosmer,
attorneys employed by the Merchants
Association to assist in the prosecution,
did in the Judges chambers go into
consultation with the Judge as to the
charge and instructions to be given to
the jury, which was done in the alb
sence of the defendant or his counsel
and without either of them being ad-
vised or permitted to be present.
Countryman said he desired to put
Attorney Hosmer on the stand for the
purpose of examining him as to the al
legged consultation with the Judge, and
also Police Judge Cabaniss as to al
legged errors at the preliminary hearing.
Judge Lawlor denied the request, say
ing he could not listen to any testi-
mony on motion for a new trial, and
Countryman demurred, saying he de-
sired the testimony to enable him to
prepare bill of exceptions on appeal.
/ The case was continued till January
25 for argument on the motion for q
new trial
