|HHI|ON-A BUSY DAY
Heaviest Vote Ever POlled in
Rathdrum.
VOTE OF The PRECINCT.
Gives Every Republican Nomi-
nee a Plurality.

Rathdrum was the scene OF
much activity on election day and
larger vote was polled in the
precinct than ever before. Tie
registration was 897 and the total
vote on the county seat question
was 8I6 in the precinct. The
total vote on presidential electors
was 766; on governor, 741, and
congressman, 1871.
The polls opened at 8 o'clock in
the morning and closed at 7 in the
evening. Fourteen booths were
provided at the Fraternal hall and
for part of the tine they were
kept filed, some being obliged to
await their turn to enter them.
But the crowd was handled rapid
ly the voters forming in line.
Everything was quiet and orderly.
The nearest approach to a dis
turbance was incidental to the
only challenge made. Adelbert
Bussey, who resides in that part
of the precinct near Coeur d'Alene,
was challenged on the ground that
he was not citizen. He refused
to take the oath but protested that
he was a citizen and that his
naturalization papers were in the
courthouse. After some argument
he surrendered his ballots and LEFT
the polls. Later he returned anc

take the oath, but a second en-
trance to the polls was not allowed

BARROW SCORES
PROHIBITION
Chicagoan Says Law Applies Only to
Poor-Nothing Touches Rich.

Clarence S. barrow delivered a
scathing arrangement of the prohi-
bition forces at Toledo, Sunday after
noon before an immense audience. In
The course OF his speech he said:
Regulate the political conduct OF
the working man by his personal con-
duct alone. Destroy the hope OF lib
erty in man and you assassinate the
human soul. The working man needs
all the liberty he can get. He does
not always use it well, neither does
the other fellow.
These people are like John Calvin.
He knew much of the kingdom OF
heaven, but little of the kingdom OF
earth. The great trouble of such men
is that they attempt to tackle the
kingdom of which they know so Little.
Prohibition only prohibits the
poor. / can get all the liquor | want
il | have money. 1t does not touch
the rich. Nothing touches the rich.

KING EDWARD TO USE
INDIANA-MADE FURNITURE
Will BE Manufactured at Evansville
Honorary Certificate Proposed
for His Majesty.

King Edward OF England, will in
all probability be made an honorary
member of the Evansville Furniture
Manufacturers Association This is
the statement given out by William
4. Koch, president, and NJ. w. Breg-
er, secretary of the association. Ac-
cording to information just received
from St. Louis, a representative of
King Edward, who has just been in
that city for several days, has just
closed a deal at the Furniture Elk
change for 5000 worth of furniture
to be used in the palace of the King,
and the furniture is TO come from
Evansville largely. The goods will
be shipped to New Orleans by steam
boat, and from that port direct to
Liverpool. The Evansville furniture
manufacturers have exhibits at the
St. Louis furniture Exchange.
This is the first instance where a
foreign ruler has bought Evansville
furniture. Mr.. Koch stated that at
the next meeting of the furniture
manufacturers he would suggest that
King Edward be made an honorary
member of the association, and he
thinks the motion will be carried un-
animously. He says he will see that
an extra fine membership certificate
is purchased for King Edward and
mailed to his majesty.

BLAME FOR FIT. WAYNE FIRE.
Coroner Scores Owner, Lessees and
City and State Officials.

DR.. Kesler, coroner, made public
Saturday his findings in the case OF
fire that destroyed the Aveline Hotel
at Fit Wayne May 3, with loss OF
twelve lives. He places responsibility
upon the Shoaff estate, owner of the
building, for failure to provide enough
FIRE escapes, as required by its con-
tract with Jones, Stevens & McAlevy
the lessees. The coroner blames the
estate for permitting the elevator
shaft to be lined with pine, and for
failure to protect the wooden floor
over the boiler from overheating. He
blames the lessees for failing to equip
the rooms with ropes, as the law
provides He charges that the state
building Inspector inspected the hotel
three times without recommending
that approaches to fire escapes be
kept open The city comes IN for
caustic criticism for failure to have
fire ladders, nets, etc, to save life
Anna Nadeau, waitress, Saturday
sued the hotel owners for $4,000 be-
cause of her injuries. Other suit:

LUTKERN CHURCH
MAKES GAINS
STATISTICS PRESENTED TO
CONFERENCE HELD AT FIT.
WAYNE, SHOW GAINS IN
EVERY DEPARTMENT
UNION OF SCHOOLS
UNLIKELY.

The Lutheran conference OF the
Missouri synod, which was held at
Fl. Wayne, will meet three years
hence at ST. Louis, this being one OF
the three cities which alternate in
having the conference, Milwaukee
and Fl. Wayne being the others. The
last conference three years ago, was
held at Detroit for special reasons.
The report OF President Pieper
shows that since the last conference
the number of districts hos increased
from fifteen to twenty, and the num-
Der of parishes having resident pas
tors from S2S to GAL The expendit-
ures for home missions increased
from $4,000 TO $134,000, and the for
eign mission work has been success
fully carried on. The number of
students in the several educational
institutions has increased from 1,413
to 1916 There was also an increase
OF 125 pastors, 2S4 congregations and
IS. 331 communicates. There was
however, only an increase Of 153 pu-
pills in the parish schools, and DR.
Pieper seized the opportunity TO de-
cry race suicide. Baptisms increased
from 33,264 to 34,102.
The local members OF the church
from all over the county assisted III
servind dinners to the delegates. Ii
is estimated that the necessary ex-
penses for provisions during the stay
OF the delegates is $1,000. The noon
meals were served in the college gym
nasium, to which there was a football
rush at meal times for seats, as many
had to wait The good women OF the
church did the greater part of the
work, but the occasion was one OF
the great events in the life OF the
Lutherans.
1t is understood that the overtures
for the union of the English and
German synods must be taken to
mean that the English are merged
into the German. The two synods
have separate schools, and the diff
Guilty is 10 decide upon how they shall
be conducted. The prospect for union
is not bright.

MRS. METSKER ACQUITTED.
Jury at Cassopolis Did Not Consider
the Killing of Carlton Morgan
Warranted Punishment.

With the concluding of the evidence
given by Mrs. Christina Metsker
Thursday afternoon, at Cassopol1s,
the defense rested and by so doing
brought the case to close so far as
the taking Of evidence is concerned.
At the close of court Friday the state
announced that they had not yet de-
cided whether or not they would put
on any evidence in rebuttal, but
promised to make their intentions
known to the defense that evening
Friday morning it developed that
no rebuttal evidence would be intro
duced and thereupon Judge L. B. Des
Voignes announced that he would sci
aside four hours for argument, al
lowing two hours to the side.
The states case was opened by
States Attorney Thomas Bresnahan
who began his argument by stating
what would be necessary to prove to
convict on the charges specified in the
Indictment He then announced that
he would ask the jury to return :
verdict on the charge of involuntar,
manslaughteD and would base his ar
gument upon this theory.
This reduces the charge to the low
est form Of homicide, which is proof
that the state abandoned the though
of malice or premeditated murder be
fore the taking of evidence was be
gun. 1t was noticeable Throughout
the trial that no attempt was made or
the part of the state to show motive
in the death of Carlton w. Morgan
on the part of Mrs Metsker.
Attorney Bresnahan went over the
evidence produced by the state in de
tail and pointed out the facts of tht
case from the states point of view
He did not attempt to inject any
especial oratorical ability in his re
marks, but simply confined himself
TO the argument of the states cas- as
could best be understood by the pur-
ors. The jury listened to his remark.
with much interest and are apparent
ly giving the case much thought.
After celebrating for one hour the
jury sen. for Judge Des voignes and
announced they mad reached a YER
dict Immediately large cr,-wG
gathered in the court room and every
one was in state of excitement AT
:0s o'clock court was resumed and
officers were instructed by the Judge
to scatter throughout the court room
to prevent any attempt at demon
stration and arrest anyone attempt
ing to cause disorder.
The jury was brought in at 4:1O,
and Foreman Peck was asked il they
had reached a decision, and he an
swered eyes"
Asked what the decision was, the
foreman answered mot guilty" on
the ground that no cause had been
shown.
The jury was then polled and each
member asked if this was his verdict,
and all answered that it was.
In spite of the judges precautions,
there was a slight demonstration, and
Immediately the news was shouted
up and down the streets, while friends
gathered about Mrs. Metsker and
showered her with congratulations
