TWO FREED; TWO GUILTY
LAND FRAUD JURY AT FIRST DIS
AGREES; THEN DECIDES.
Judge Persuades Panel to Return, and
Agreement Finally Comes as
Result.

Washington, June 23.-The Jury In
the case of Frederick A. Hyde, John
A. Benson, Joost Fl. Schneider and
Henry P. Dimond, who were indicted
over four years ago for alleged eonspir-
acy to defraud the United States out
OF large tracts Of public land in the
west, Monday in the criminal court
here reported that they had not
reached an agreement.
Later, however. the jury returned to
the court room Monday afternoon
and rendered verdict holding Hyde
and Schneider guilty and Benson and
Dimond not guilty. The court thanked
the members Of the jury and immedi.
ately relieved them from any further
service.
The court instructed them to make
one more effort to reach a common
agreement and If they could not then
agree he would discharge them from
their responsibilities.
Justice Stafford spoke of the impor-
lance of the case to the government
and to the defendants, and asked the
Jurors II they would not 90 back to
their room and lay aside all of their
previous opinions and listen to each
others views and see If they could
not reach an agreement. The Judge
said that he did not wish to modify
or take back any part of his charge
to the jury. Immediately after re-
ceiying the courts instructions the
jury again retired in further effort
to come to some agreement.
The jury had been out since one
o'clock Friday afternoon. The case
has attracted widespread interest, and
the evidence included mass Of rec
ords from land Offices in California,
Washington and Oregon.

What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use Of liquor, wine or
beer, aud overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
fer it's wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in ffty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
You may have sample bottle and a
book that tells all EyE-
about it, both sent free 1s.:ss3+ IA

A PRIMARY LAW NEEDED.

Never in the history OF the state
was the need Of a primary law more
apparent than now, when one party
is split in twain and the two leading
candidates for leading place on the
ticket of another are making charges
and counter charges which are bound
to create animoaitjes.
Such a condition as now confronts
the republican, party never would
have existed but for the attitude as
sumed by certain republican leaders
from the southern end of the state,
who placed their personal ambitions
above the party's welfare.
Less than IS months ago the ques-
ton Of selecting the candidates for
state Offices by a primary election
held simultaneously throughout the
state was before the West Virginia
Legislature. Had the will of the peo-
pc been obeyed, a primary law
would now grace our statutes, but
the bosses opposed. They saw in the
bill curtailment of their power. To
be deprived of the privilege of pack
ing conventions. which choose dele
gates was fatal to their system. The
primary bill was ruthlessly slain.
The means employed for the &C
complishment of their end, while
permissible in politics, reflect Meth
er glory upon the bosses nor honor
upon the republican party. Claiming
to see in the primary bill Negro
domination," they brought the color
question into play and used it with
telling effect. They did not content
| themselves with predicting that the
Negro would take places on the coun-
| ty tickets, where his numbers would
entitle him to such privilege, but
| circulated an unautahriZed interview
in which Negro lawyer expressed
his intention to- become candidate
for the position of circuit Judge
should the bill become a law. Their
it was they soWed the wind. .. r..
