the habitual wrong doer from prac.
ticing his iniquitous wickidness, or
lead him into better lines, but in
stead will only wiring the hearts OF
those who already aresuffering all
that human strength will bear, is only
catering to the lower instincts OF
the readers of the paper. 1t is
yellow journalism Of the most de-
grading kind, for it deals with
ruined characters and broken hearts.
The mission of newspaper, like the
ministry of the Gospel, is of an en-
tirely different sort, and it should
be so regared.

Consistency, Thou Dog, Lie Down

Consistency, Thou Dog, Lie Down
Journal, July l, 1905.-Many
people think that the principal busi-
ness of a newspaper is to give the
news, no matter what kind, and to
comment on everything in red hot
style. In the opinion of the editor
of the Journal the time to comment
is when some benefit will be secured
by so doing, and not merely for the
sake OF gossiping. Publicity is a
benefit in many ways, and often
deters criminals from doing wrong,
and easily influenced people from
becoming wrong doers. In cases OF
that kind publicity through the
press is good thing. But publicity
by newspers, when it will not deter

ness possesses it's peculiar secrets.
This is truism and applies to every
thing-even to a contest carried on
by newspaper.
The proprietors of this paper have
had occasion to realize the truth of
these things since starting our
"Most Popular Young Lady" con
test. To the average reader the
printed vote Is grasped at a glance
and it is natural for one not to con-
slider the amount of writing, book
keeping, typesetting and other Incl
dentel work necessary to present
the reports to our readers. We con-
fess when we started the contest,
April 81 last, we did not have much
Of an idea of the time or work neces-
sary to bring it to successful close.
Never having gone through the mill, F.,
so to speak, we thought about two
months time would be plenty AS a
matter of fact we find that six
months time is none to soon in which
to give such con test proper publi-
city. 1t was our intention to close
the contest July 4th, but in looking
around we find so much unfinished
that should be done we must have
another months time. One thing we
have been unable to secure and it is
something we must have is a com
mittee of three ladies from the coun-
try who will act as a canvasslng
board. Our lady friends seem timid
about consenting to act though for no
reasons we can see. We will pay
the expenses of the committee while
IN town and we propose to treat them
right while here. We don't want
any question raised about squareness
of the contest. We are giving away
a fine gold watch that costs US neat
little snm of money. We make
nothing out of the contest, except {
| little advertising for our paper ape
we want our subscribers to count
the votes themselves at the close.
We have definitely decided to close
the contest August 3rd next whether
or no and if we can't secure the com
mittee mentioned we will publish the
list of all votes cast for the two high
est candidates. We prefer com
miutee, and any lazy willing tx
act will confer favor by dropping
us line to that effect.

Montezuma, Feb. 2.-Manslaughter
was the verdict rendered by the jury
in the trial of George Mitchell for the
murder of John Parker. The verdict
was read in court at 8 o'clock this
morning, the jury having been out
since 5: 30 last evening. When the Ver-
dict was announced the prisoner broke
down and sobbed violently. Later he
regained his composure and seemed TO
take a more hopeful view of the sit
uation. He may appeal the case. Sen
tence will be pronounced Saturday. 1t
is said the jury was practically unan-
imous at the start as to the mans
guilt, but that there was a difference
of opiniom as to the degree OF guilt,
some standing out for second degree
murder.
The story of the crime Of which
Mitchell was convicted is we'll known

DUNNlNG is CONVICTED.
Verdict Of Guilty Returned at Early
Hour This Morning.

SreciaI to Times-Republican.
Mt. Ayr, Feb. 2.-The jury in the
case of Day Dunning. the banker, on
trial here for fraudulent banking, re-
turned a verdict Of guilty at 1880
this morning, having been out since
early last evening. The first vote was
ten to two for conviction. The defense
made a motion for new trial this at
ternoon on the ground Of error in the
instructions. The state agreed to an
arrest of judgment, pending the courts
consideration of the motion. April IL
was set for a ruling on the motion and
sentence The court indicated the sem
tence will be only a fine.
The Dunning case grew out OF the
failure of the bank of which Dunning
was the principal owner here. 1t was
charged that he received deposits af-
ter he knew the bank was insolvent.
The failure was bad one and there
was a very bitter feeling against Dun
ming, especially among the depostors,
many of whom lost nearly all their
savings. On the trial, however, 1T APP
peared that Dunning had not profited
by the failure nor had he, so far as
could be ascertained, squandered the
money. The failure was apparently due
largely to poor business methods.

leqed Alienation Of Woman's Affec-

Ieued Alienation Of Woman's AHec-
tions.
Special to Times Republican.
Davenport, Feb IL. r. Walker.
the former Princeton capitalist who is
the defendant in suit brought by S.
A. Weaver to recover $4,000 for the
alleged alienation of his wife's affec-
tions was placed on the witness stand
in the district court this morning and
his testimony was the chief topic of
conversation around the court house
today.
Mr.. Walker made practically an alb
solute denial of all that Weaver has
testified to or that Mrs. Weaver has
sworn to on the witness stand.
He declared on direct examination
that his conduct towards Mrs. Weaver
had never been what 1t ought not to
be and that he never in any way had
wrong relations with her.
Mr. Walker also states that he was
made to give the order for the $500
check at the point of a gun and that
he gave it because he was afraid that
he would be shot if he did not do so.
He gives the same reason for writing
out the check in his office some time
afterwards.
Attorney Chamberlin for the defense
had Mr.. Walker enter into a detailed
account of his dealings with the
Weaver family and their relations
since Weaver went on the Walker
farm were thoroughly ventilated.
