SUDDEN DEATH.
William M. Schultz Dies Suddenly
Tuesday Night While Convers-
ing With His Wife.

William NJ. Schultz died suddenly
Tuesday night at his home. Sixth
and Division streets, aged 62 years.
Mr.. Schultz had just returned from
the house of his daughter, Mrs. A.
]. Anderson, block distant, and was
conversing with his wife, the two
being alone in the house. He sud
denly became i'll, and started for
couch to lie down when he fell to
rise no more. Mrs. Schultz ran to
her daughters home for aid, and in
her excitement fell and sprained her
ankle.
William Schultz was born in Bre-
sen. Germany, married in that coun-
try and came to the United States
over thirty years ago, settling In
Rochester,. Mimi. where he engaged
in the shoe business. Seven years
ago he disposed of his interests in
Rochester and with his wife came to
Aberdeen. which city has since been
his residence.
Mr.. Schultz is survived by wife
and six grown children, Oscar
Schultz, tallyman at the Slade mill;
Carl, tallyman at the American
mill: Max, who is in Alaska; Mrs
Al. Coats of Seattle; Mrs. a. j. An
derson of this city, and Mrs. Frank
Schneider of Simpson, MINI.
The remains are at the undertake
ing parlors of Bowes & Randolph
awaiting the arrangements for the
funeral, the time of which was not
fixed this morning.

1t becomes a grave question of pol
itical morality whether the Senate
should confirm the nomination OF
Daniel J. Keefe to be Commissioner
General of immigration. From what
some of the labor leaders have said
there is little doubt that they can
bring before the proper committee
of the Senate the proofs as to the
psychological moment when Keefe
experienced a change of heart in the
late campaign and declared for Taft.
Other changes produced in the same
way were made in the campaign, but
none Of them was so open and mani
fest as the conversion of Keefe.

THE DEVIL"

When Henry W. Savage gave per-
mission for the organization OF a
company under the direction Of James
D. Barton e. Company, to produce
the much discussed Hungarian
comedy sensation THE Devil" it was
especially stipulated that the COM
pany and scenery should be in every
way up to the standard of the pro-
duction at the Garden theater, New
York. The play-goers of this city
are, therefore, assured of high-class
satisfying performance when The
Devil" is presented at the Grand to-
morrow night.

UP TO THE BAR ASSOCIATION.

The State Bar association commit
tee has uncovered more than enough
disgraceful and scandalous conduct
by Supreme Court Judge Milo Root
and former Chief Justice M. j. Cor
don to call for vigorous grand jury
investigation.
The scandal has reached proper
tions too stupendous to be allayed
by any milder course. The people
of this state, deeply aroused by rev.
Citations already made, will look to
the State Bar association for Wig
orous action. They will expect a
report from the investigating COM
mittee that will have the right ring
that will call upon the courts for
a grand jury investigatiou-and the
people will further expect the State
Bar association to see to it that
there shall be able, fearless and Wig
orous prosecution before the grand
jury and in the courts.
Every member of the State Bar
association is, by law, an officer of
the courts Of this state, and is under
oath to maintain the dignity and
honor OF the courts. The associa-
ton has the talent and the power to
force an investigation that will bring
out the truth and reveal and punish
the evildoers. That duty it owes to
itself, to the courts and to the peo-
pie.

A company manufacturing lumber
at Burlington, Iowa, recently made
its annual distribution OF bonus TO
its employees. 1t is the practice OF
this concern to add ten per cent to
its payroll for the year and distri-
butte the amount among its employees.
1t is a good thing for both employer
and employed. 1t insures steadiness
among the employees. and that is al
WAYS a good thing for the employer.

Caught in the Act.

Caught with the goods on it, the
World throws column of fits in a
frantic effort to place the Herald in
the wrong in the matter of the de-
feated scheme to buy a scattered
bunch of lots for the hill park. but
the dodge will not work. The World
fathered this senless scheme from
its inception. and has resorted to a
style of Misrepresentation that is
disreputable. to say the least, in a
journal that imagines it is fulfill
ing function In the working
of the city council, the evening pa
per omitted no opportunity to assist,
and in its efforts permitted no such
trifles as facts to interfere with its
arguments.
When irritated by the action of
the council resembling the purchase
order, the World admits that as a
park site it might be a failure, but
insists the city made a mistake not
to engage in Just what the Herald
called the deal, a realty speculation.
Here is what the evening paper had
to say:
"The refusal of the city to secure
Mr.. Dabneys holdings on Dabney
hill is considered by a majority Of
the real estate dealers to have been
a mistake. 1t was pointed out that
the council would make money for
the city by the purchase. but when
it comes to making money for the
city the council seems to fail to see
the opportunity. 1t is not likely the
city will have an opportunity of the
same kind again, and the defeat Of
the plan by those who have seen
only personal considerations in the
matter will later be seen to have
been more unfortunate than at pres
ent appears"
Our erring contemporary shrieks
aloud for the Herald to be more
specific in its statements, and we
will reply in kind. Who is meant
by chose who defeated the scheme
from personal reasons?" The sign
ers of the petition, concerning whose
place of residence the World admits
it lied? All of them, or only part?
Which? The evening paper insults
the entire $50 men who signed this
petition by this insinuation, and
owes it to them, and itself, to spec
ify who is meant.
If to tell the facts in matters of
public import be mongering scan
dial. the Herald pleads guilty, and
admits it is practice this paper was
following when the World writer
was studying his a, b, abs, and wear
ing very short trousers, nor will it
be deferred from the practice by the
barking os such fest as the World.
