House Entered and Seventy-flve DOL

Unable to Hear "Central"-Latter
Onto Her Job All Right.

Sedalia, Mo, May Mrs. Eugene
Hugenschmidt, the wife OF a travelling
salesman, left her home about 10:3O
O'Clock last night to get a pitcher of
water from the well. Her husband
was away from home and she was
alone. AS she left the doorway in the
ear of the house a man wearing a
red handkerchief over his face seized
her. After forcing her back into the
house and locking the door he de-
manded her money.
Burglar Was Certain.
Il haven't any money" said Mrs.
Hugenschmidt.
"oh, yes, you have replied the rob-
Der. You've o it all right. It's
here in the house and l want it."
Gave UP Her $75.
Mrs. Hugenschmidt became fright
ened. She had SIS in bills in one of
her stockings. She took the money
from its hiding place and gave it TO
the man.
Now I'm going to fix you SO you
won't IL me any trouble" said the
robber.
Opening a bureau drawer he took
out several cravats which belonged to
Mr.. Hugenschmidt. With these he
bound the woman's ankles and hands.
Then he carried her across the room
and tied her to a sewing machine. Be
lieving that the woman was helpless,
the robber left the house.
Dragged Heavy Machine.
Mrs. Hugenschmidt waited until she
was sure the robber was gone. Then
slowly she dragged the sewing ma
chine across the room until she reach
ed a telephone instrument fastened
on the wall. With her teeth she took
the receiver from the instrument and
allowed it to fall. Miss Emma Heis-
terberg is the"central" who answered.
The one-sided Conversation.
Before she could ask What num-
ber?" she heard this:
Il don't want any number, central.
l wan you to listen to me. This is
Mrs. Hugenschmidt. My hands are
tied and l can't hold up the receiver.
There's been a robber in the house
and l want you to send someone here
to release me-"
Repeated the Message.
In order to make sure that central"
had heard her, Mrs. H~ugenschmidt re-
peated her words. Then she waited,
not knowing whether or not the girl
had heard or help was coming. But
Miss Heisterburg had heard. She noti-
fled the police and Patrolman Farmer
went to the house and released Mrs.
H~ugenschmidt.
No Arrests So Far.
Mrs. Hugenschmidt was not able 10
say whether the robber was white or
black. The police have worked on the
case all day, but no arrests have been
made. The robber, it is believed, lives
in this city and knew that the woman
had the money in her house.

FROM JOHN MITCHELL.

Spring Valley, ILL.,, Sept. Is, 1908.
To the Buffalo Republic,
Buffalo, N. y:
Answering your telegram of today,
I have this to say:
I sincerely believe that all honest
interests in this country, including
those of the worklngman, would be
greatly benefited by the election OF
Bryan. Legitimate business and
honest wealth would have nothing to
fear in such an event
The platform on which Mr.. Bryan
stands, fully recognizes the rights of
organized labor ana gives specific
assurances Of legislation that will
protect the rights and liberty of
organized labor. The platform on
which Mr.. Taft stands gives no such
recognition and no such assurances.
The ISSUE Therefore, is clearly drawn
and that is the reason Mr.. Gompers
and the executive council OF the
American Federation of Labor advised
trades unions to vote for Bryan.
The predatory rich who are SO
Jealous in their advocacy Of Mr.. Taft,
clearly indicate where the rest of the
people should stand in the fight.

Second President. A. F. Of L.

Andrew j. Gill<inSOn
Democratic Candidate for Congress, Sixth District

Alexandria Citizen DR.. A. j.
Gilkinson of Osakis, democratic
candidate for congress from the Sixth
Congressional District, is preparing to
conduct a. vigorous campaign during
the weeks which intervene from now
until the fall election. Definite plans
for conducting the work have not yet
been completed, but 1T is probable
that DR.. Gilkinson will make speak
ing tour of the district.
Since the announcement of his
candidacy, Dr. Gilkinson has re-
friends in all parts of he district.
''Standpatism'' and ''Cannonism'
is not favorite doctrine with the
average Minnesotan, and voters every
where, without regard to past political
affllation, are beginning to realize
that the strangle-hold which the
predatory interests appear to have on
the national congress, can only be
effectively broken by a political
change IN the makeup of that body.
DR.. Gilkinson stands on a platform
which demands that government shall
be administered by and for the people
instead of by and for the trusts !;
which declares IOI ituo SudIduCto VI
bank deposits; the direct election Of
U. S. senators by the people; the
physical valuation for railroads; the
modification of injunctions; the
publicity of campaign contributions
before elections economy in govern
ment expenditures and the reduction
of present extortionate tariff schedules
by the friends of the people instead of
by the friends Of the trusts. DIR:
Gilkinson will appeal to the voters of
this district on the broad grounds Of
democracy-the rule Of the people and
guarantee of equal rights to all ;
special privileges to none, and he
should win the confidence and the
support of every voter who wants a
square deal-a fair opportunity for
every man who labors, no matter IN
what part Of the worlds vineyard he
may be employed. ....

Wayne county, West Virginia, March

ONLY THE PRIVATE DEPOS1T0R.

Indianapolis News, Ind. The
deposit guaranty idea seems to be
making its way in the face of the
frowns of the financiers Of New York
and the objections Of the elect who
do not want it because they do not
and If you want it you do not know
anything 1t never has been and it
shall not be. But are not we going a
little fast? Never has been? When
the national government deposits
money in banks any and everywhere,
does not 1t insist on having its deposit
guaranteed? Yea, verify, it does.
When public funds of any kind are
deposited IN banks, do the custodians
thereof have guaranty? They do.
What was the last law that we passed
in Indiana concerning the custody Of
public funds, but that they should be
deposited according to bids received,
guaranteed and interest accounted
for? Indemnity bonds are an ac-
compartment of all such deposits. It
is only the private depositor who is
told that his deposit shall have no
guaranty and who is told that the idea
is simply crazy popuslstic doctrine.

23rd, 1863, and resided in that state
until his nineteenth year, when he
came to Minnesota and for time
made his home with his grandfather,
Joel Caylor, at North Kingston,
Meeker Co. During the summers he
worked on the farm and attended the
district school during the winter
months.
Dr.. Gilkinson entered the State
Normal school at St. Cloud in the
spring OF 1884 and graduated from the
advanced course of study in 1888. He
was superintendent of schools in Long
Prairie for one year and in the fall Of
1889 he entered the medical depart
ment of the state university. In 1890
he again taught school at Fair Haven,
Minnesota, but resumed his medical
studies in 1891 and graduated from
the medical department of the state
university in 1898.
Immediately after his graduation he
located at Osakis for the practice of
his profession and has been for years
recognized as one of Douglas county
most successful practitioners.
DR.. Gilkinson has been elected
mayor Of Osak1s repeatedly and has
served for number of years on the
board of education in his school dis
trict In 1900 he was a candidate on
the democratic ticket for representa-
tive in the state legislature from his
legislative district, and although his
county was strongly republican at
that time, he was defeated by small
majority. He is well-known through
out this county and this congressional
district, and has many close personal
friends and admirers who will
cordially endorse his candidacy for con-
gress this fall, and who will give him
earnest and effective support.
DIR. G1lkinson was united in
marriage to Miss Grace I. Bliler at
Fair Haven, Mimi, January 81, 1894.
They have five children Ross E. :,
aged 10; Bryan A., aged IL; Howard

Mr.. Taft, the man who wants to be

stitution nor the wishes, or honesty of
the plain people He. is against the
people acting as jurors. He said to
the Yale law class of 1905 The
jury system contributes more to
criminal immunity than it does to
social security. Taft was raised
among snobs and can't think that
plain people are honest He thinks
that men who are selected under our
laws provided for by the United States
constitution. are of criminal
tendency. How is that, Mr. Fuller,
for man whom you say is for the
people? Who can take his word now
when he has motive, as against
what he said when he talked his mind?

A very sad death, which came as a
terrible shock to his family, occurred
Wednesday morning at O'Clock,
when John Lentz of this city, aged 43
years, passed away at the Northern
Pacific sanltarium at Brainerd, just
ten hours after he had been operated
on for severe case of appendicitis
and two days from the time he was
taken ill.
Deceased first complained of a pain
in his side Sunday, but went to work
as usual the next morning: The PAIN
increased and Monday evening a
physician was called, and the latter
diagnosed his case as that of an attack
of appendicitis. He was taken to the

on the noon train, where an operation
was performed on HIM at 6 100 p. m.

None of Roosevelt's letters or Taft s
speeches contain a word in denuncla-
ton of Cannonism. Neither has said
a word IN criticism of the speaker.
The local republican organ is so afraid
of Cannon that it wants him called
off. The reason for this sudden dis
play of political virtue where no re-
publican or anybody else believes it
exists, is because Lindbergh says he IS
anti Cannon. Fuller is still trying to
square himself-on the surface.

SENATOR NELSON ARGUED FOR
BRYAN STATUTE.

St. Paul Daily News: When
William H. Taft, republican candidate
for president, fayed the advocates of
guaranteed bank deposits at the
Minneapolis Auditorium, one Of the
men he hit the hardest was the chair
man of the meeting sitting at his
right hand, Sen. Knute Nelson.
Sen. Nelson has been for long time
an ardent advocate of guaranteed de-.
posits and introduced bill along that
line at the last session of congress.
The Nelson bill was in the form OF
an amendment to the AIdrlch- Vree-
land emergency currency bill and
provided for the setting aside of one
half of the present tax on national
bank notes in circulation to accumu
late. until fund of $40, 900, 900 had
been created. Out Of this fund all
loss to depositors through failure of
national banks was to be paid.
The amendment was vOt ed down
but before 1t was put to a vote Sen.
Nelson made a strong speech support
ing it. During the course of his re-
marks Sen. Nelson was interrupted by
Sen. Hopkins, Illinois, which explains
his reference to him in the remarks
quoted below:
"When we allow the national banks
them out to the public as species OF
g1yernment Tha, agencies said ssn
and standing that other banks in the
community scarcely have. 1t is all
very we'll for the senator from Illinois
to say that the depositors ought to

ordinary small: depositor-the labor
ing man and farmer-a bank is a
bank, ana he is not able to find out
and he cannot tell whether a bank is
first class, sound bank or not.
Senators, you may think l am
cranky on this subject, but had a
little experience in my younger days
the memory of which has been with
me ever since. When I was a law
student in the city of Madison, Wis,
in 1867 was very poor, but I finanlly
succeeded In accommodating fund of
$500. It formed practically all my
possessions. ;.
"There was in the city of Madison a
bank known as farmers bank. I did
not know the difference. I supposed
one bank was as good as another. ]
deposited my little money in that
bank. In very short time the bank
failed. I did not have at that time
the skill and Judgment that the
senator, from Illinois has What dwell
in my mind was that the bank was q
bank, ana that if I deposited my
money in any bank in the city Of
Madison it would be perfectly safe.
eff I had had the senator from
Illinois by my side at the time per-
haps he might have cautioned me.
But the trouble is that the rank and
file of depositors In this country, the
laborers and farmers, have not these
wise statesmen at their shoulders tc
nudge them and say that is good
bank and that is bad bank. -
Sen. Nelson then went on to- argue
that such a guarantee fund would
stop panics, because if the depositors
knew absolutely they would not lose
their money, they would not rush tc
draw it out every time there is a
scare, and this. the senator said, was
one Of the chief causes of panics, the
fear of the people that their money il

Fuller is greatly opposed to Speaker
Cannon. When Cannon learns Of this,
he will probably resign. The other
day, Sherman, republican vice.
presidential nominee, and Longworth,
Roosevelt's SON. law, went to Dan

Cannon. Taft is for Cannon, and will
help him all he can to be speaker
again.
