Midland Theatre, and flayed the graf

Graft" was especially good, Graft is
getting something for nothing by con-

Prof. Wright expoundad several uni
que ideas, one being that he forms a
rogues gallery in his lind, which is
composed solely of grafters. At the
head he places, Judus, who betrayed
his lord and master. following him he
puts the public official, who for
DOODLE betrays the public trust. Then
comes the banker, who speculates
with the savings of the poor. Follow
ing the banker comes the wild cat min

Rev. Charles Lewis Biggs of st.

length on the subject t1 insurance and
rate legislation. He took his facts
from the constitution. saying that con-
gress was violating tllee constitution,
when 1t did not give the commerce
commission power to regulate rates.
He claims that 1T is violation Of
the clause, which says that no pre-
ton of commerce or revenue to the
ports OF one state over those Of another"
He says that this Is not a party ques-
ton, but something that should deeply
interest all.
He showed facts whereas, $40 men
composed the total directorate of 65
per cent of the railways of this coun-
try. These $40 men or half the number
in the lower house OF congress practi-
cally regulate rates between ''the ports

stitution this is Illegal and that the

ASSETS WORTHLESS.
Mr.. Ady Says Many Of Them Were
BIS Non. coItectible.

Primghar, Oct. 21.-Many Of the So
| called assets of the Sheldon State
Bank were absolutely worthless, ac-
.cording to the testimony submitted by
the witnesses for the state in the trial
Of Ed. C. Brown on charge Of fraudu-
lent banding here yesterday The tes-
timony to that effect made in the
morning by Fred e. Frisbee, cashier
Of the First National Bank of Shell
don, was reiterated and It's truth adj
mitted in the afternoon by r. w. Ady,
receiver for Mr.. Browns bank, the
Sheldon State.
OF the resources Of the bank, listed
at $4,000, it was declared that on
November 3, 1903, there was $4,000
which was worthless and absolutely
non collectible. Compared with the
liabilities of $194,500, it is claimed
that the assets were considerably less
than that sum, and that number Of
these credits Of the bank were of
such long standing that their worth
lessness must have been known to
Mr. Brown long before the date men,
toned. This is the principal point
which the state is endeavoring TO es-
tablish.
Court adjourned last night until
Monday afternoon In order to give the
attorneys at Sheldon, Sanborn, Sioux
City and elsewhere an opportunity to
spend Sunday at home, Judge Oliver
will spend Sunday at his home at
Onawa. The jurors, too, have gone to
their homes.
Good News for Creditors.
An Important development In the
case came yesterday in the change
made necessary in the report OF the re-
ceiver as a result of the decision OF

figures after carefully calculating the

claims OF depositors.
It has been found that instead OF

John Sawyer, who lives just over the
