BEUTHIENs WILL GO FREE.
Defective Iowa Statute Permits Bank.
.ers to REGAIN Liberty.


Davenport, Ia, March because
the Iowa statutes, which make it a
crime of embezzlement for a banker
to loan money to himself, fail to pro-
vide a punishment for the crime, M.
Beuthein and Arnold Beuthein, presi-
dent and cashier of the wrecked New
Liberty, Ia, bank will go free, al.
though one pleaded guilty and the
other was under indictment.
Judge ]. w. Bollinger of the district
court here during the day held that the
law was defective because it failed to
provide punishment and he ordered
the indictment of M. Beuthien quash.
Cd. Arnold Beuthien had pleaded
guilty, but he will withdraw this plea
and will be liberated. The Beuthien
bank failure involved more than $780,
900 loss; Of this sum young Beuthien
loaned $4,000 to himself to promote
theatrical enterprise.

SHADY SIDE OF LEGISLATION.

The remark is often heard says the
Minneapolis Journal, that business
will be good at the capitol this winter,
because of the unusual number of
bills introduced that tread on the toes
OF corporate interests. The inference
is that these bills are being used for
inc purpose of holding up the interests
that are hit.
1t will not do to question the motive
of any legislator in the introduction of
sucn bill. The presumption is that
he believes the bill a just one, and
that he will support it to the finish,
regardless of what influence is
brought to bear. In fact, it should be
said at the outset that the large major
ity of such bills now in are unques-
tionably genuine attempts at reform.
Unfortunately, the sincere reformers
cannot always be separated from the
gray wolves" who introduce bills for
the purpose of making some corpora
ton give down." Such bills are
sometimes easily spotted. The record
of the author is sometimes guaran-
tee that he is not sincere. His bill
may have evident merit, but the man
who introduces it has record on such
questions just the opposite of the
character of his bill. When the title
Of the bill and the name of the author
are read, significant smile goes
round.
For some reason, the. majofity Of
this sort of bills are introduced in the
lower house. Perhaps the authors
bear in mind the constitution, which
says ''all bills for raising a revenue
shall originate in the house of repre-
sentatives." There is another more
likely reason, however. There are
more Innocent and unsophisticated
members in the lower house, who fail
to see the significance of the 'shold-
up" bill and support it honestly, play
ing into the hands of the pseudo ere
former" Or such. member may op-
pose bill honestly, and a lobbyist
will collect for his vote. va
The honest member who has a mind
keen enough or an experience broad
enough to see through such schemes
is placed in a hard position. If he
votes against the bill he Is censured
for servility to the corporation that is
affected. If he votes for it, he is only
giving the "hold-up'' artist another
club. Such bills are usually extreme
and reeking with injustice, but have
just enough merit in them to catch
the popular fancy. }@.
1t will do no harm to watch the au-
thors Of some of these bills. Their
conduct In supporting and pushing
their measures to passage may afford
some index of their sincerity.
Meanwhile the "special-interest"
senator or representative is making
capital against meritorious bills by
whispering about the. corridors that
they are 'legpullers.' The bare fact
that q bill is used by venal men to
milk q corporation Is not conclusive
proof against the bill The bill may
be on the square; 1t is the "knocker"
who is on the ragged edge.

Unbidden Equine Walks Into a
Room; Frightens Family.
Floor Gave Away; Animal Des-
cends to the Cellar.
Tear Out Side of the Building;
Brute Is Released.

1t is uncertain whether the horse of
William Ellis Jones of Judson grew
jealous of the comforts that his master
and family were enjoying or it was
mere inquisitiveness that induced the
equine to walk into the open door of
the house. Certain it is that he was
no sooner inside than the floor gave
way under him and down he went into
the cellar carrying carpet and planks
with him. The frightened family sent
for the neighbors and a consultation
was held as to the best way of getting
the animal out. At length it was de-
cided that the best way was to tear
down part of the side of the house
and saw off the sill, that the brute
might walk out himself. This was done
and the plan worked satisfactorily. The
horse went meekly back to his own

RABIES IN MARTIN COUNTY.
Creating Terror Among Citizens
Mad Dogs Are Abroad.

Fairmont, Mimi, March 2.-The
spread of hydrophobia in the western
portion of Martin county is creating
terror among citizens,
A dog which first bit boy at Sher-
burn, started the threatening malady.
The boy is now at the Pasteur insti-
tute in Chicago lowering between life
and death. Before this dog was killed
it sunk its poisonous teeth into other
dogs that augmented the spread of
the epidemic.
Manyaska is suffering the greatest
ravages of the disease. Three dogs
have gone mad there. Only one has
been killed and the other two are at
large, probably spreading the malady.
Three cows have died as result of
the disease and the ignorance of the
owner of one of them will probably
result in the further spread of the af-
fiction, as he fed carcass to his hogs

1t was found that Weycker's right
temple was crushed in, and that his
right leg was brnken between the knee

just above the right knee He also had
a number of bruises. The bone protrud

held on by strip of flesh. 1t was de-

Weycker's condition is very critical.
Exposure for seven or eight hours In
the cold and wet, and the loss of blood
greatly weakened him, and it is hardly
thought possible that he can recover.
Weycker was employed by Thomas
Coughlan as a teamster, but was dis
charged Monday. He is known to have
been drinking yesterday afternoon. In
fact. his main fault has been drink.

FUNERAL OF MRS. D. L ROSE
Many Mankato Friends Were Present
at Last Sad Rites.

To the Editor of The Free Press: The
following relative to the funeral of Mrs.
Rose is sent on the suggestion of some
of the Mankato people who were pres
ent at that service in the thought that
her Minnesota relatives, personal
friends, and church and club associates
would be interested in learning some
thing of the particulars:
Clinging to life and to the last want
ing to live, yet fully resigned and ready
to go at the Masters will, Mrs. ID. L..
Rose passed quietly and peacefully
away in the arms of the nurse who has
been most faithful helper and friend
to her for the greater part OF the past
two years. Her body was laid to rest
under dropping evergreen pepper tree
in the beautiful cemetery at the foot of
the mountains in Altadena, Cal, on the
last day of February, 1905. The spot
is very near where she passed the last
years of her life.
Although so far from her Minnesota
home she did not lack for friends from
that home of her happier days to fol
low her casket to its last resting place.
A cousin of Rev. Lee w Beattie, her
former pastor, the Rev. T. C. Beattie,
associate pastor of the First Presbyteri-
an church of Pasadena, Cal, had fire.
luently visited her in her illness to
comfort and cheer, and was present to
conduct the funeral service.
Favorite hymns, Nearer My God, to
Thee" and Jesus, Lover of My Soul"
were sung by an impromptu choir-Miss
Clark of Pasadena, Mrs. Sarah Barr
Cole of Minneapolis, formerly of Manka-
to, and Messrs. George f. Brett and H.
E. Swan, Miss Clark singing also the
usual and well known words of the
