Fatigue Cause Of Accidents
Jos. Nokes, Adjt..


That a tired man is much more apt
to meet with accidents than one in full
possession of his strength, physical
and mental, has been shown conclu-
sively by a series of statistics col
lected in Paris. These figures show
that few accidents occur in the early
hours of the day or right after the
noon hour of rest, but that they in
crease enormously toward evening
and when people are tired. This
means but one thing golden grain
belt beer to keep the world fresh and
strong. 'Never let ourself grow
weary" is more than an idle song.
Use this delicious tonic sand be
healthy, strong and happy. Order
ofsyour nearest dealer or be supplied

KOCH MURDER TRIlL.

AS was expected. the second trial of
Dr.. Koch, the alleged New Ulm MUIR
derer, at Mankato, resulted in dis
agreement of the jury-seven for con-
sviction and five for acquittal. Gen.
H. w. Childs was; the principal attor-
ney for the State, and against him
were pitted four or five of the ablest
lawyers in southern Minnesota, but he
was more than a match for all of
them. The most despicable character
revealed by the trial was Asa P.
Brooks-the editor who looked over
the transom, saw his best friend being
murdered and raised no cutlery. In
summing up to the jury Gen. Childs
scored Brooks numerically. 'Mr
Brooks has told you while upon the
witness stand that DR.. Gebhardt was
his most intimate friend,'' said Mr..
Childs. He has told you that he
did not think it possible for two bet
ter friends to exist than he and the
murdered dentist If this be SO. is
it not hard to account for Brooks &C
tions on the ight of the murder? If
DR.. Gebhardt was the best friend
Brooks had, how can you account for
this silence that man maintained as
he saw his most intimate friend under
the deadly knife of an assassin? Can
you imagine your best friend stand
ing in silence or creeping away in
fear as he saw the form of a murderer
bending over your PROSTATE body
while you cried loudly and in vain
for help? I ask you, can you imagine
this? And I ask you if your friend
maintained that attitude, while you
were in the extremity of trouble,
would you still consider that man a
friend?''
Koch will probably be released on
bail pending his third trial, .which.may
take place at Mankato next month.

Lieutenant Governor Jones is very
forgiving sort of a man. In an inter.
view published in the Duluth News.
Tribune he is quoted as saying:
It would not be the part of good
taste for me to go about announcing
myself candidate for governor, as
I am a part of the executive family
and the present governor has been in
Office only four and a half months. I
would not like to-: have Governor
Johnson, who's a fine man and, is
making a popular governor, think I
was out building up a machine to
overthrow him. $3.50
How considerate the lieutenant gov.
ernor is of the feelings Of the gov.
ernor. Only a few short months since
that same governor and his supporters
were denouncing Mr.. Jones as ''con-
victed pine thief.'' :

Secretary of State Hanson and Audi
tor Iverson are deserving of the
thanks of all fair-minded people for
their manly stand as members of the
State Drainage board in behalf OF
George A. Ralph. The charges pre-
ferred against Mr.. Ralph by the
former public, examiner were found to
be devoid of truth. The present pub
lie examiner revamped those exploded
charges at the bidding of his masters,
thus furnishing Gov. johnson with a
pretext for opposing Mr.. Ralph. Mr..
Ralph is honest and competent, and
better man could not have been Sc
lected for the position of engineer of
the drainage board. Mr.. Ralph has
incurred the enmity of the Van SAINT
johnson combination of traitors and
mugwumps because of his stalwart
Republicanism.

In an editorial May Is, on the SUBJ
ject of bungling work in the hanging
of murderers, the Pioneer Press saws:
I'm New York, where electrocution is
resorted to, every murderer con-
demned to death, like every murderer
or other felon condemned to imprison-
ment, is brought to the prison for the
execution of sentence. The final scene
is enacted in the presence of less than
half dozen witnesses. AS a matter
of humanity and of civilization the
same system should be established in
this State. A bill to this end was in
PRODUCED in the 1908 legislature. but
failed, unfortunately, to pass. It was
not revived in the recent legislature:
but it is to be hoped that after this
years experience it will be revived
two years hence and successfully put
through. The solemn function of
hanging is one that. properly belongs
to the State and that ought not to- be
intrusted to the humors and lack of
experience of local officials. Capital
punishment is not so common that
there can be- professional and skilled
hangmen in every county or in any
county. They are not so common
that the rabble is likely to lose it's ap-
petite for them; for there seems to
have been hardly less eagerness to
view an execution in those: days in
England when men were gibbeted al
most daily. Execution behind the
prison walls and in absolute secluion
by an officer of the State prison is the
only system to be tolerated in the
twentieth century,

THE PRINCETON UNION: THURSDAY, NAY IS 1905

POLITICAL P4RTIES ESSENTL4L.
President Roosevelt in his speech
at the Iroquois club banquet in Chi
cago last week told his listeners that
political parties were essential to the
well-being of the country, and that he
believed in healthy political antago-
nism. "Our country he said, sis
governed and under existing circum-
stances can only be governed under
the party system, and that should
mean and that will mean, when we
have sufficient number of people
who take the point of view that Judge
Dickinson takes. there will be a frank
and manly opposition of party to
party, of party man to party man,
combined with an equally frank re-
fusal to conduct a party contest in
any such way as to give good Ameri-
cans cause for regret because of what
is said before election when compared
with what is said after election. The
frankest opposition to given man or
a given party on questions of public
policy, not only can be, but almost
always should be, combined with the
frankest recognition of the Infinitely
greater number of points of agreement
than the points of difference.

The Duroc is All Right.

This paper has had good deal to
say of the Duroc hog, which has made
this county famous, and took SO many
of the prizes at the recent mid-winter
fair at Tampa.
MIR. H. H. Whitworth, who intro
duced these hogs in this county .lhas
been eminently successful with them,
and wherever he has exhibited them
they have been prize winners over all
competitors.
To confirm us in the beliefs we al
ready entertained, Mr.. WhitIock yes
terday sent us a Duroc ham, back
bone and spare ribs, and as the
''prooflof the pudding is; in chewing
the bag" we can testify that too
much cannot be said in favor of this
delicious meat. The Duroc is all
right, and too much cannot be said
in its praise, and Mr.. Whitworth is
doing splendid work for our county.
In the language of the Tampa Times,
''the hope of F1orida's future is
grounded on its live stock industry"
and the men who provide this in
dustry are the real builders of the
state.
