Pettibone, charged with the murder of
former Governor Frank Steunenberg to

preme court of the state when similar
petitions were filed there

the petitioners that their clients were
not present in Caldwell at the time of
the mrder; that the affidavit of the
prosecuting attorney representing that
they were there and filed from the state
was false; that their extradition and re-
moval from Colorado was result of
fraud and conspiracy on the part of the

the men could not be legally extradited.
The state rested its case upon the
proposition that the courts would not
inquire into the manner in which the
men had been brought into the state.

were true. The argument occupied sew
eral hours. At its conclusion Judge
Beatty announced he would render his
decision at o'clock tomorrow after
noon
Tomorrow Judge Smith at Caldwell
will pass upon the motion to admit the
prisoners TO bail and also upon the de-
murrer to the Indictment. The next

overruled, will be for The men to plead
to the indictment, whereupon the date
for the trial viii be fixed There Is as
yet no Information upon which to base
a forecast as to the date that VIII be

SLIDES NEAR TELLURIDE,
Miners, Remembering Former Hor.
rors, Are Going to Town.

Telluride. Colo, March ia snow
slide which came down yesterday al
the Liberty Bell mine damaged the
upper terminal of the tramway and
considerable tTestle work 1t ran in
the path of the noted slide of Feb IS
1902, which killed nineteen men, The
miners, remembering the terrible slide
OF four years ago, have been leaving
the mine and coming to town today.
1t will be only question of a day or
two until the Liberty Bell mill will be
compelled to close down.
Another huge slide came down yes
terday near the Bullion tunnel of the
Smuggler-Union mines damaging the
blacksmith shop and other OutbuiId-
mgs.
On account of the severity of the
storm, which still continues, no effort
was made today to recover the body
of August HELENE, who was killed sat
urday night by the slide in Bear Greek.
Fate of Crew Unknown.
The telephone line to Ophir station is
cut off and the fate of the engine and
f1anger crew, hemmed in by slides near
Ophir loop, has not been learned
Slides are down all along the road to
Red Mountain, and the storm continues
so that it is impossible TO get through.
A small slide came down at the Joker
tunnel last night and tore out the
snowshed at the mouth Of the tunnel
and destroyed the stable and black
smith shop.
The Revenue tunnel mine mill and
all the buildings are considered to be
in danger since it is known that the
POtosi slide comes down near the
dump of the mine, and increase of snow
might carry it over the buildings. The
Atlas, Bakers Consolidated and San
Pedro are all considered to be in i'm
minent danger.

The home OF Mr.. and Mrs. D. B. Vles
in Madison WAS the scene of q very
pretty wedding In which people of both
Skowhegan and Madison are interested,
last Saturday afternoon, when their
daughter, miss Ava E. was married to
Henry c. Sheridan Of Skowhegan. The
ceremony was performed by the Rev.
B. B. Merrill, pastor Of the Island Ave
nue. Congregational Church of Skowhe-
gan, in the presence OF the immediate
relatives.
The groom was formerly of Scion, but
has been a valued employe of the Somer.
set Traction Co. for the past eleven
years and during this time has made the
acquaintance of many people of this Vi
entity, especially those who have occa-
sion to travel over the electric line be-
tween here and Madison, where the
courteous manner in which he has dis
charged bis duties has made him many
friends. The bride is a graduate OF the
Madison High school, class of 1901, and
| following her graduation she taught sue
cessfully in the rural schools of that
town. She learned the art of typeset-
ting in the composing department of the

Mrs. Fl. D. Baker, master of Bingham
grange, gave the welcoming address and
G. b. Walker, overseer of the Pomona,
had the honor of responding.
Topics for discussion we're cutting,
curing, feeding and marketing the hay
crop; the election of u. :. senators by
popular vote and preparing nutritious
foods In hot days IN haying. These
were practical questions to consider and
called out the talent of such speakers

Salley, c. Z Ball. T. F. Houghton, S. T.
Goodrich, Clara Is Lesvitt, Mrs. A. H
Clark, Mis- II. b. Whipple.
Mr.. Ellis and MIR. Salley claim that
the best market for the hay crop is in
feeding to herd of jersey cows. that it
pays the greater profit. Mr., Emerson
claims that II one is fortunate enough to
possess a natural hay farm quite a
portion of the hay crop can be sold to an
advantage; that the most money can be
made in disposing of it by sale. All the
speakers are emphaticaly in favor of
early cutting

Truthful words were those spoken by
Mayor Mcclellan of New York, to the
students of Union College, Schenectady,
when he said:
"If you intend to be public spirited citizens,
you must bear your share of the heat and the
burden Of the day. No man has the right TO
ask another to do what he would not be will
ling to do himself. All of you should be
willing to help in the government of the State
in proportion to the measure of ability God
has given you"
The goody, goody people, who are tt o
pure to NEEDLE with politics, who stand
back and grumble and find fault, are the
greatest hinderances to political progress
and reform. How few are there in the
number of merchants, physicians, clergy
men, and those engaged 10 commercial
life who take advantage of the primary
laws which are designed to protect the
people from being only political atoms
