In the end 1t is believed that all
this makes for peace The theory
is that International friendship flies
on the wings of commerce, and that
general prosprity will tend to
prevent sudden and disturbing
changes of administration In some
portions of the Western hemisphere.
The state capitol of Arkansas was
Temporarily located here during the
conference of governors on natural
resouro.s. OF course ther was an
acting governor dohng business at
Little Rock, while the real powers
that were visiting the President,
but about all he could do was 20
set his flowing signature over the
title "aolng governor to such small
potato documents as pardons and
appointments of notaries public. lie
did however, issue q proclamation
thereby rouslng the ire of the
absent governor.
The governing power in Arkansas
during the week was a weirdly bal
lcd-up mixture. The real governor
of the state ds III, and for some
time past, under the state constitu
tlon, n o. Pindan, president OF the
senate, has been acting in his
place. When Gov. Pindall happens
to be temporarily Oft the job, the
power is transferred to Allan H..
Hamiter speaker OF the House. In
|cidentally he is deadly rival of
Pindall's.
Some time ago Gov. Pindall was
Invited by the President TO attend
the conference of governors here,
and just aced to come But he didn't
thr reins of government in Arkan-
sas and drivirly tandem-like the two
Legislative bodies. so he finally hit
| upon the plan of bringing with him
to Washington enough OF the mem
bers of the legislative and executive
machinery of the state to thwart
any real show of authority on the
part of his rival.
Hamiter is resourceful, however.
TIr looked into all his progatives
and searched the preecedents. Then
he decided that the state legislature
ought to have anothr session, and
so ordered 1t.
Gov. Pin1all was considerably
wrought up wehn he heard of this
move and announced that immedia-
tely upon his return he would
block the extra session by Issuing
anoth3r prooamahon, declaring II
| off.

Bottle Labeled ChIorOform Is
Found Near the Scene of
Crime.
Sheriff ]. w. Donahue on the
Ground Today Making an
Inquiry.
From Saturdays paIly.

From Saturdays Daily
Finding q bottle labeled "Chloroform'
with an old-fashioned, oddly shaped
cook in it, not far from the farm
home of Mr.. apd Mrs. Almond Sauls-
bury at Willow Creek this morning,
officers searching for the man who
chloroformed and assaulted Miss Edith
Salisbury last Thursday morning, be-
iieved they had discovered valuable
clue.
Developments this morning lent much
Interest to the exciting man hunt in
which many people of the Willow Creel,
section have been taking part. The
young man employed as clerk in the
drug store at Amboy returned from
a vacation of three days. He heard of
the crime at Willow Creek and recall
ed selling quantity of chloroform
TO certain party shortly before he
left on his trip, SO it is reported. =
The clerk said he knew the man
and could. also identity the bottle if
cork was one of number of old ones
of peculiar shape which he was trying
to get rid of.
About the same time bottle label
ed "Chloroform" and containing an
odd sort of cork was found not far
distant from the Salisbury farm home.
Those who had heard the story told
by\ the young drug clerk at Amboy
were satisfied that a clue had been
found which would lead to the appre-
hension and Identification of the man
who had attacked the young lady.
Was Not the Same.
But when the young man at Amboy
was shown the bottle and cork he said
that it was not the one he had sold a
few days before.
The bottle and cork is in the officers
possession and may possibly lead to
the arrest of the guilty man.
This was the extent of Developments
in the Salisbury case today. Never
theless interests is maintained and
every effort is being put forth to APP
prehend the bastard who committed
the act.
SlleIiil oohil Iohahue spShI iant hiShC
and today in the Willow Creek coun-
try making an investigation into the
assault. Miss Salisbury could furs
nish no clew to her assailant. In fact
she could offer nothing that could in
any way lead to his apprehension. She
could not identify him, anyway as she
claims not to have seen the party,
and she could not recognize his voice.
The authorities have but slender
thread to work on. But circumstances
lead them to suspect that>a local party
committed the, crime.
DR.. Merrill of Amboy was called
to attend Miss saubury and Sheriff
Donahpe had an interview with that
physician this afternoon.

WILL DEEPEN CHANNEL
NicolLgr COUNTY TO IMPROVE
THE MINNESOTA RIVER.
Commissioner Have instructed Sur
ssyor II. w. Daniels to Prepare
an Estimate efths Expsnss.
From THURSDAYS Daily.

Nicollet county is to take the lead
IN the movement to improve the chan
mel oil, the Minnesota river. At a
meeting Of the board of county com
missioners instructions were issued to
H. w. Daniels, county Surveyor to
make survey of the river at Red
stone, q few miles down stream from
New Tim, and prepare an estimate of
the cost of deepening and widening the
channel al that point.
Near Redstone the channel is un-
commonly narrow and the flow of wa
ter is obstructed by a railway en-
bankment. In consequence the. low
living meadows for miles on either
side of New Ulm have been inun-
dated for several years, and the COM
missioners of this county believe that
the reservoir, which is formed, has
a tendency to keep the river at
food stage, causing damage and loss
at places lower down the river They
plan to dredge the channel and thus
expediate the flow of water
> Marshall, Aug. 20.-The preliminary
survey has been completed by County
Surveyor Sterk for an important drain
age project, it being the proposed
Strengthening and deepening of the
channel of the Redwood river from
it's junction with Three Mile creek,
in the township of Stanley, rlrnsing
through the town to the county line
and into Redwood county for mile.
The work will cover a distance of six
miles.
The numerous drainage bitches in
this and Lincoln counties, with the
damming of Lake Benton and its
outlet into Dead Coon lake and the
Redwood river, makes the improvement
of the Redwood to the Minnesota river
at Redwood Falls an absolute neces-
sity.
