WEDGEWOOD
NOT GUILTY
But is Censured for Treatment of
His Mother

The WedgewoOd trial was resumed
yesterday at four o'clock and George
Wedgewood resumed the stand and
finished his story Of the trouble with
his mother, in which it was alleged
he had hit and beaten her, and had
not supplied her with the necsssaries
Of life.
The testimony for his side was in
the main foreign to the case, bear
ing only on personal relations.
Father Purcell took the stand and
stated that he knew the old lady to be
unreliable in all that she said; that
she was old and childish and had
caused Wedgewood much trouble.
He stated that Wedgewood had treated
her much better than she deserved.
The different attorneys argued their
case and the jury went out at $3.50
o'clock to deliberate. After being
out for some time they called In JUS
tice Chamberlain and asked for in
structions on certain parts OF the tes-
timony. They remained in session
until about o'clock Then they re-
turned the following verdict:
"We, the jury trying Geo. Wedge
wood for battery, find the defendant
not guilty as charged; but we do find
said defendant guilty OF non-suppori

TO REPRESS ANARCHY

Secretary of the Navy Bonapart ad-
vocates strong meausres when dealing
with anarchists. 1.-THE death penal
ty," he says, "should be unequivo-
cally imposed and inflexibly exc
cuted whenever the prisoner has
sought, directly or indirectly, to take
life" For offenses of less gravity
he advises comparatively brief, but
very rigorous Imprisonment, charae-
terized by complete seclusion, depri-
Walton of all comfort and denial of
any form of distraction. He goes
still further and declares that this
imprisonment could be advantageous
ly supplemented by whipping, says
the Spokesman Review.
There should be no shielding of
counselors of crime or instiRators of
disorder, Mr.. Bonapart argues.
through any false conception OF the
freedom of speech or the press Ruar-
anteed by state and federl constitu-
lions. seldom has 1t happened that
a man occupying prominent posi-
tion in the national government has
spoken so emphatically in regard to
one of the gravest perils threatening
this country. By congressional ae-
ton and administrative regulation it
has been sought to control anarchy.
yet the evil Is growing. The radical
socialism Of today is but step re-
moved from anarcism in its most dam
eerous form, and the radical socialist
easily develops into an anarchist.
Advocacy Of the death penalty not
only for the man who actually takes
life, but for him who counseIs and
urges others to take it will appeal
strongly 70 all who believe that stRib-
bets keep the lifted hand in awe. ;,
Dread Is entertained by some that to
make what they speak Of a. a too Wig

Speaking Of Candidates.

1t is not necessary that the contents
OF The LEADER should be a hymn OF
praise, net, dedicated to the Republican
candidates. Some OF these gentlemen
are well-known to nearly every voter in
Lincoln county. They are now holding
official positions, and the records, which
every voter may examine, speak for
them. The LEADER will gladly give
space to any voter who desires to file a
charge OF official dishonesty or incom-
potency against one of them. Every
honest voter desires manly and clean
campaign, and the candidate who can
not win out on his own merits deserves
defeat. While few silly yarns have
been circulated during the past few
days against some of the Republican
nominees, they have been of the harm.
less variety-harmless except to the
crculators.
Lincoln county Is Republican by
large majority, and it is useless for
minority party candidates to beg Re-
publican votes on the ground that there
is ''no politics in it," If there is emo
politics in it," why are they trying to
march into officeunder a party banner
and take the places of officials whose
records are as good or better than they
themselves would be able to make?
The ReDublicanS nf Tincoln ooupty
will not be fooled by the old and wormy

can ticket from top to bottom and up
again is worthy the support OF every
Republican in The county. 1t was
selected by the voters themselves at
the primary nominating election, and
the voters without doubt know their
own wishes and their own business
better than Office hungry minority can
