Those Government Corners.


When the case was resumed after the
noon recess Wednesday afternoon Agent
DeFrees was recalled on cross-examinat ton.
The particular features that Mr. Noleman
wished to bring out were the establishment
of government corners and to ascertain
whether Mr.. DeFrees had undertaken TO
establish any of the corners. Mr.. DeFrees
stated that but few government corners
now existed there, but that there were
sufficient of them to assist in the establish
ment of correct surveys.
Mr Noleman thereupon moved that all
the evidence in chief given by this witness
in reference to the establishment of lines
be stricken from the record. The motion
was overruled.
Mrs Bessie Osborn, wife of Theodore
| Osborn, was next called and proved her
self remarkable witness not alone from
| clearness of her answers and intelligence,
but from the knowledge she possesses of
the question at issue and particularly re-
! garding the land descriptions and locations
throughout Sheridan county. 1t was she
| who first made maps of the illegal fences,
accurately following every section and
quarter line over which they ran in the
! whole of the Krause brothers enclosure,
| extending over four townships and en-
| bracing 1900 acres or more, Mrs. Osborn
is comparatively a young woman, of pleas
| ing appearance and has a clear, resona mt
voice She is completely self-possessed and
during the dry details of her direct and
| ross-examination was not perturbed in
! the slightest. She seemed TO have the de-
1 scription of every section and quarter line
| in that district at her tongues end and
once or twice corrected the attorneys who
had accidently misstated certain section
lines, without even referring to the map.
Tells of Filing.
She stated in her direct examination that
| she, with her husband had first visited
Sheridan county in the fall Of 1902 with a
view TO locating there.
| 'Mr Osborn made his filing in Novem.
| Der of that year. We settled on the claim
in MAY, 1903 and have since lived there, .
she said AT the time of our first visit &c
the country the land thereabout was en-.
closed with range cattle fence belonging
| TO the Krause brothers. They settled upor
| a claim inside the enclosure, il being pub
lie land on what was known as the sOutf
range Of the Krause brothers ranch. Theil
land is described as the east half south
east, northwest quarter southeast. north
east quarter southwest, 35-26-46 west Of
D. m. Sheridan county, Nebraska"
She further testified that the Kraus
brothers kept the fences in repair at al
times. and that she had seen them as lat
as last April putting In new posts ant

CATTLEMEN FACE The JURY
Land FsDoer Gases Begin with Trial Of
Krause Brothers.
PROCEEDINGS ARE ACTUALLY IN MOTION
District Attorney BRxter, In Outlining
Case, Tells of Alleged Attempt
of Defendants TO Oust
HOmesteadera.

The trial Of the land fencing cases began
before Judge Munger in the United States
district court Thursday morning, with the
court room well filled with Interested spec
tators. among whom was Bartlett Rich
arde. the well known cattleman of north
western Nebraska, ard who is also under
indictment for the illegal fencing Of por-
tions of the public domain.
The full jury finally was selected at lO:l5
o clock and comprised the following named
persons:
W. Q. Bartholomew, attorney Omaha; c.
Edward Early, real estate agent, Column
bus; z. W. Snider, tanner Auburn; John
Stewart, Friend; D. F. Skinner Palmyra; I;
A. F. Ross, clerk. Omaha; A. L. Ireland,
farmer, Papillion; Logan Folda, bank CASH

The rest of the federal petit jury not en-
gagged in the trial of this case was excused
until Monday June 8, at O'Clock a. m.
Baxter Outlines the Case.
In his opening statement to the jury Dis
trict Attorney Baxter outlined the nature
of the case against the Krause brothers,
who are charged with illegally fencing
county. Judge Baxter gave a brief history
of the homestead laws and the supplement
tary Kinkaid law, indicating the rights that
horneseekers had to file upon public lands
that were subject to entry. He showed that
certain parties with their families had gone
into that section to enter upon public lands
and establish homes there. Specific men
tion was made of one family, that of Theo-
dore Osborne, who had made legal filing
on quarter section and when they went
to locate 1t found 1t to be enclosed in the
big pastures Of the Krause brothers
They, however, located on their entry
and proceeded to improve 1t and build a
home" said Mr.. Baxter TT was a crude
affair at first, merely frail barn, in which
they were to live until they could complete
their sod residence. The Krause brothers
were very indignant over this invasion OF
their territory and told the Osbornes they
could not stay there, that the land be-
longed to them. The Osbornes were people
not very easily scared and they knew theil
rights and held onto their claim. The fam.
lily was repeatedly warned and threatened
| with dire vengeance If they did not leave
| The Krauses, or some of their employees
| undertook at one time to ride down Osborne
and his wife, but they were of the meta
! that didn't scare and still held on to theiI
| home.

STORY WAS A HOAX.
oskaloosa Is Not Going to Retire From
Iowa state League.

Iowa State League.
The story published under an Oska-
loosa date by different Iowa papers, in
which it was claimed that Oskaloosa
was going to retire from the Iowa
state League and form a county and
neighborhood league next year is de-
clared a fake, pure and simple, by the
Oskaloosa Herald. A personal letter
to the T.-R. from the Herald people
asks that publicity be given the deni-
al. Oskaloosa has no thought of retir-
ing from the league, altIo, like other
already in the league, it feels that
something must be done another year
to keep the salary list within a certain
limit.
The story relative to Oskaloosa's re-
tirement had it's origin, it seems, at
Keokuk, and was published in retail
iation for an article that appeared in
Oskaloosa Herald, concerning the Keo-
team, which was somewhat disgrunt-
led while playing a resent Oskaloosa
series This story was written so that
it could not be interpreted seriously,
and was to the effect that Keokuk was
going to organize a league of neigh
boring villages that were sufficiently
small to insure keokuk winning the
pennant next year. A specific clause
in the constitution of the so-called
new league was that manager Egan
was empowered to release the league
president at any time and sign anoth-
er, il such an action would lead to the
betterments of Keokuk's percentage
column. 80 -.

Kind Words for Frisbee.

The Oskaloosa Herald has only
words of praise for Manager Charley
Frisbee of the Burlington team, who is
we'll known In central Iowa, and for
mer Alden boy. The Herald says:
"The showing which Charley Fris-
bee and his also-rans are making at
this stage Of the game is not only fine,
but It Is the matter of much pleasure
to many other managers in the Iowa
league who know Frisbee and know
what a sterling fellow and fine ball
player the manager is. .Frisbee is one
Of the old timers in base ball." said
Manager Cassbone just after the Bur-
| ingtonians had cleaned UP their three
from Ottumwa, and he is one Of the
| finest fellows as we'll as finest ball
| playeys in the Iowa league. Charley
got bad start this summer. but his
| team is now in a position where 1t Is
| a factor in the pennant race, altho 1t
| is in place where 1t can never hope
| to reach the bunting. If Frisbee's club
| could start now on equal terms with
the rest, 1t would hold its own, for
"Charley" Frisbee knows a ball play
err. and has got several of the best with
him. These games which the Burling-
4 ton team have taken lately, IL you re-
member, are good, tight games, where
1 the victory wasn't due to the blowing
up of team, but to the superb work
4 of the bunch which Frisbee has col.
lected. Frisbee is an old Iowa boy and
| went into professional ball, getting into
| fast company where he was good. He
has played ball wherever 1t is played
and was the best man owned by Des
Moines this spring. When Frisbee was
released to go to Burlington it was the
| first time Charley" had been free to
sign where he pleased since he started
