LAWYERS STAND THE TEST.
San Francisco Publisher Offers Strong
Testimonial to Their Honesty.

Ed. GAZETTE: Appropos to the
discussion going on in the press as
to the moral standing of the legal
fraternity, from the fact that so
many strong lawyers assist the great
corporations in evading laws, we
are apt to look at the profession IN
it's worst light. There can be no
doubt that there are bad men in
this profession as well as in the
medical profession or in the min
istry, But no profession should be
judged by its worst men, but the
general average should be taken.
The legal profession have lately
undergone a great test, and they
may we'll challenge comparison with
any other profession, the ministsy
not excepted. In fact we may well
doubt whether 10000 farmers taken
haphazzard thru the country could
have equaled this record. We will
let the statement of the Bancroft
Whitney Co. of San Francisco, 6
corporation which publishes law
books solely and deal only with the
legal profession, speak for itself
Their statement published recently
in the Northwestern Reporter anc
other legal periodicals is as follows
A GRATEFUL ACKNOWLEDGMENT tt

Having no lists Of patrons we sent
a circular letter to the lawyers
named in Martindale's Legal Direc-
tory advising them of our loss and
asking for information as to their
indebtedness to US. The responses
to this circular were so prompt and
so gratifying that we think the
Legal profession should know that OF
this tat0.l Indebtedness, of say $780,
900, nearly S150,OO0, has already
been reported to US, and we are
receiving advices every day from
parties who had not previously an
swered our circular asking about
their indebtedness.
1t is but right to say that some of
the San Francisco attorneys declined
to accept the cancellation of their
accounts and have paid the same.
Let it be known to the world that
the legal profession is made up OF
men of the highest honor.

STATE TREASURER EXONERATED.
Has Obtained Money for Schools When
Not Officially Required to Do So.

The GAZETTE desires to make full
amends for circulating criticisms up
on the failure of the state treasurer
to pay money for schools, the criti-
cism being founded on lack OF
knowledge of all the facts. The let
ter following explains all the circum-
stances:
ED GAZETTE
My attention has been called to an
item which appeared in the Deem
Der 4th issue Of your paper, calling
attention to some criticisms which
have been directed against me, as
treasurer, for withholding the state
aid to schools. Believing that this
is an honest criticism and due per-
haps to an incomplete understand
ing of the situation as it has existed
| respectfully ask your consideration
of the facts which the article covers
On the 23d Of October, when the
cash balance of the state was II
round numbers $1,500,0O0, a with
drawal of about 81, 100000, a fac
which was commented upon at some
length by the press generally, wa
made on the state depositaries. Or
the 18th of October $685., 900 of thi
withdrawal was sent out to tn
county treasurers for the genera

school apportionment. This appor-
tionment is in no way connected
with the state aid to schools. The
state aid is made payable by the
legislature out of the revenue fund,
which at the time it is made pay
able, October, is always overdrawn.
1t is overdrawn today over $500, 900.
The cash balance at that time was
not sufficient to cover this 1856, 900
appropriation and as result OF IN
ability to borrow money, which Dor
rowing is r.ecessitated every year
because the legislature makes this
appropriation available before the
funds to pay it reaches the treasury,
the money to meet these warrants
| if they were sent out was not avail
able. Our hands were completely
tied. We did rot have the money
nor could we borrow it. Last Tues
day, however, acting for the officers
of the state / was able to negotiate
a loan sufficiently large SO that the
aid could be sent and in the after
noon of that day the warrants were
mailed.
No one regrets the conditions as
they existed more than | and | an
glad that the situation has cleared
So far as the money which was
collected being deposited in the city
banks at the time when some of the
school districts were forced to Dor
row money, | can say that it is ;
matter of record in this department
that there was only money enough
in the three active checking accoun
banks to take care of the daily de
mands made on the treasury.
Thanking you for thus permitting
me to trespass upon your time an
assuring you of my sincerity in stat
ing the actual conditions, | beg t

Very sincerely yours,

WILL ABBOTT'S BAD BREAK.

w. L. Abbott, a former Redwood
Falls boy. at one time foreman OF
the Reveille printing office when
that paper was under the manage
ment of his father, has a second
time achieved unenviable notoriety
in connection with his unhappy do
nestle relations. 1t will be recalled
that Abbott subsequently married
the daughter of the late Judge Buck
of Mankato, that their married life
was more or less a failure, and end
ed finally in a divorce. They have
two children, which were given to
the custody of the mother. Abbott
is a man of considerable ability and
a good printer, but appears to be
extremely erratic, having gone
through a good sized fortune In his
business ventures and being now in
a fair way towards another smash
up, if we may credit the account of
his latest exploit as given IN the
Mankato Free Press:
MRS. Laura Buck Abbott, accom-
panied by her son, Parker, arrived
from St. Paul Saturday evening and
is stopping with Mrs. H. D. Dia-
mond. Her daughter arrived Satur-
day morning. Mrs. Abbott's face
gives evidence of the serious time
that she had in w. L. Abbott's print
ing office in St. Paul Thursday, men
ton of which was made by The
Free Press Saturday. Both her eyes
are blackened, her nose broken and
she is suffering from injuries to her
chest"
! The Free Press gives column ac-
count of the pitiful family quarrel
as told by Mrs. Abbott, who was i'll
at the Boardman hotel for ten days,
during which time the children spent
considerable time with their father.
The latter made an appointment for
an interview with his former wife at
a restaurant where he had taken the
children to lunch. Abbott question
ed his wife as to some money she
was to receive, told a hard luck story
of his business and said that he
would lose everything unless he
received help. Mrs. Abbott declined
and afterward accompanied Abbott
to his printing office Here Abbott
brought up accusations about Judge
Bucks will, alleging that his daugh-
ter had destroyed the will. Mrs.
5 Abbott denied the accusation and the
7 father of her children gave her the
2 lie direct, to which Mrs. A. remon-
: strated. The Free Press continues
a cat this Abbott uttered an oath
t and struck her suddenly as she was
\ sitting in a chair. This was the

PICTURE SHOW WAS
4 GREAT SUCCESS

There was a fine audience at the
Opera House last night to witness the
first exhibition of pictures by the Crys-
tai Moving Picture Co. The views
were all that have been promised in
the press notices preceding the show so
there was nothing but pleasure ex-
pressed. The humorous ones captured
the house and there was a demand for
more of that character of scenes
though the others made good impress
sion. However to please al tastes the
management will add number of new
comic views for the entertainment
Thursday night. They have a large
stock of films and unless there should
be request made for special ones there
will be no duplicates.
Miss Clifton was in good voice and
made a most favorable impression on
the audience. There was a demand for
more singing but the program was too
long to permit it. She has a pleasing
presence and scored an immediate sue
cess. The popular prices charged for
the entertainment is evidently appre-
ciated by the public for the sale of
seats, both advance and at the box Of
flee last night. was satisfactory. An
entire new set of views will be
shown tonight and Miss Clifton will
sing new songs. The seats are seven
ty-five cents, for those in the boxes,
fifty cents for parquet and dress cir-
Gle, twenty-five cents for the balcony
and fifteen cents for the gallery.

BEAUTY MORE
THAN SKIN DEEP

There are, in some waters, unseen
virtues which can only be discovered
by experience. The first of these is alb
solute purity. the second is the posses
sion of life giving, vitalizing properties
due to the mineral rock through which
the water rises. Tansan is bottled In
the most complete and perfectly equip
ped works under American ownership,
control and supervision. It's absolute
purity is testified to by medical men
and expert analysts the world over,
while the mineral qualities of the IA
nous Takaradzuka Springs are unique,
investing Tansan with delicious taste
that entities it to be described the
choicest of all choice waters. These are
facts to remember when you are asked
to drink anything but Tansan.
