UPHAM ANSWERS
ASKS THAT PLEAS IN AGATE
MENT BE STRICKEN FROM
RECORDS
Charges That They Do Not Contain
Facts Sufficient to Constitute a
Plea-Other Grounds.

Prosecuting Attorney Upham filed
motions in court Monday asking that
the pleas in abatement which were
filed in behalf of the. defendants in
the Canton State Bank cases be
stricken from the files.
This is a new point in law Gen
orally in such cases a demurrer is filed.
This is practically an admission of
the facts, which are not considered
of sufficient importance to have any
bearing on the case. If the present
motion to strike out is sustained the
accused bankers will be brought into
court and compelled to plead to the
indictments.
The motions and briefs Of Prose
cutting Attorney Upham and A. M.
McCarty of counsel advance three
reasons why the pleas should be
stricken from the records. One is
that the papers do not state facts
sufficient to constitute a plea, nor the
ground upon which the action should
abate. 1t is also alleged that the
pleas do not contain any grounds for
abatement of the actions, which can
be supported by any competent eyI-
dence It is also charged as a third
reason that the matters as contained
in the pleas of the abatement are
irrevelant. immaterial and unneCes-
nrfI, "a
The prosecution directs the motions
and briefs to indictments which make
Corwin D. Bachtel a defendant to IA
charges, William l.. Davis, to two, C.
H. Van Horn to four, Harvey H. Mil
Ter to five and w. H. Walters to one,
G. o. Lawrence to one.
The questions involved will be
threshed out before Judge Hole in
court room No 2 next Monday morn
ing.

New Baltimore Death.

De LosSe Payne Cole, eldest son
of Cleo b, and Arthur Cole, was
born in Jefferson county, Nebraska,
February 5, 1887. Died February 3,
1906, aged 10 years, lacking two
days. Parents, one brother and two
sisters survive him. Lived in Nebras-
ka until seven years old, when with
the rest of the family he moved to
Calcaslen parish, La; thence in two
years to Texas county, Mo-; thence
in two years to Ohio, nearly six years
ago.
Deceased was of mild and peace1ul
disposition, hence was often imposed
upon. He probably never did any
mortal an injury Was well liked,
had many friends and no enemies.
Was most deeply in love with his
mother, which fact alone is volumes
of praise.
Thou't gone, thou sweet and noble
boy,
Thy fathers hope, thy mothers joy.
Why should most cruel fate destroy,
Ouf 1uLuTS pleasure
And strike thee without alloy,
Our darling treasure!
No more your sweet and smiling face,
Wen see in it's accustomed place.
No more again, can we embrace,
Your aching heart.
Nor ever future time efface,
This cruel dart.
Thy greatest fears are but too true,
Time only shows how well you knew,
No wonder you were sad and blue.
And wished to die.
With gripping pain, so racking you;
How could you try?
This day we lay thy form away,
Within the cold and silent clay.
Your mother hopes, some future day
In bliss to meet
While |. of hope have no such ray
Though would be sweet.
1t seems too much for us to bear,
That you SO young, and fine and fair
Should fill our hearts with deep de-
spair,
BY leaving us.
With pain and sorrow. woe and care
So grieving us.
But natures laws are fixed and stern,
And often hard for us to learn,
Why some have joy, while others
burn,
With grief and care.
'Tis difficult here to discern,
I'm well aware.
Goodby our darling boy. goodby,
To hide our grief, we'll vainly try;
| In memory forever nigh,
You'll be for years.
Unless the stream of life runs dry
And stops our tears.
Wen deck your grave with grass
and flowers,
From messy glen and shady bowers
You sleep, while these sad hearts oi
ours,
| Must ache and pine.
And grieye through sunshine ant
through showers,
| Till still as thine.
