ARRESTED AT BfLylEW
Frank Publ, Charged with Assault Up
on Albert ChOudek.

The Belview Independent gives ar
extended account of the arrest OF
Frank Publ, who has since confessed
to the assault on Albert Choudek,
shooting him and afterwards cruelty
beating him. After his arrest by
Marshal Leonard, the Independent
reports that at various interviews
he told conflicting stories and it is
the general belief that he attacked
the old man in the hopes of obtain
ing money and thinking he had put
MIN out of the way thought it safe
to return here, little thinking that
he would land directly in Jail. He
had stated to the Bonner family be-
fore going away that he was going
after money but gave no hint that
he contemplated any crime to obtain
it. The sheriff of LIE Sueur county
arrived on the midnight train Sat-
urday and left on the early train
with his prisoner. While here he
stated that they had clear case
against Publ and that there was
absolutely no mistake about his be-
ing the man who committed the
deed. The young fellow has been
around here more or less for some
time but was not regarded as vici-
Gus, and the news of his attempting
to murder an old man in cold blood
was considerably of surprise as
well as shock to those who knew
him. What later developments have
brought forth are not now known
here. There was $50 reward for
his apprehension and this the sheriff
assured Mr.. Leonard would be forth
coming in due time. The following
from the Minneapolis Journal of
Tuesday evening will prove of inter-.
est in this connection. Frank sPu-,
dill, who is charged with attempting
to murder Albert Choudek by shoot
ing him and then cracking his; skull
with a hammer, was brought here
last night from Belview, Redwood
county, where he was arrested and
placed in the city lookup.
He was brought before the mu-
nicipal court where he waived ex-1
animation and was bound oyer to
the grand jury, which meets in /
February, and was taken to lie
Sueur Center and lodged in the
county Jail to await his trial. as =

AN UPLIFTING INSTITUTION.
Continued from Page 6.


of people, was it uplifting then? Was it
uplifting when it burned alive at the
stake upwards of $1,000 people? Was it
uplifting when it imprisoned Calico for
teaching the Copernician system of astron-
omy? Was it uplifting when it burned
Bruno, or when st. Cyril murdered the
beautiful Hypatia? Has Italy, Ireland.
Spain or Mexico, even Abyssiania been be-
fitted by this uplifting institution? Is an
institution uplifting" that dwarfs the
mind, brushes out freedom of thought and
seeks to perpetuate itself with sword and
flame?
The real uplifting of the world, of hui
manity, has been in spite of the Romish
church, or any other church, and all who
are in any way familiar with the history
of popery knows that the Romish church
in particular, has been, and forever will be
the deadly enemy of liberty. Bruno. Vol
taire, Paine, Garibadi, bradaugh and In
gersoll, all great and self sacrificing philan-
thropists, have each done more to uplift
mankind than all the religions in the world
world They have braved the storm and
risked the dungeon for humanitys sake,
and succeeded in wrenching power from the
alleged throne of grace.
Let Archbishop Ireland be heard. He is
quoted as saying: Religious liberty in this
country is merely endured until the oppo-
site can be carried into effect without peril
to the church of Rome. Now read La
fayette and Chiniquy again. Hundreds of
similar quotations might be given along
Ryan's line. Leo XIII gave utterances to
the same end. In face of all the recorded
iniquities of Romanism, from Constantine
to this very hour, despotism takes a turn
against the liberty of this nation and a
nominee for the high Office OF President
has openly declared himself in favor or
the Romish church The very Islands to
which Mr.. Taft refers have been under the
influences of this uplifting" institution
and all the elements that combine with 1t,
for hundreds of years, and further com
ment along this line is unnecessary.
Speaking of the church of Rome, Inger-
soil once said Destruction is the only
reformation of which that church is capa
ble"
France took cognizance of this fact in
the year of grace, 1906, and forever put
the pope and his allies beyond the power Of
national harm. The spirit and policy of
the Roman church is and are out of har-
mony and inconsistent with our Declaration
Of Independence and the Constitution upon
which our government and it's laws have
been built.

For United States Senator
Wesley L. Jones
An Important Experiment.

The people of Southeastern Wash
ington will watch with interest the
work of the demonstration farm about
to be established near Rosalia in Whit
man county. A tract of twenty acres
has been selected, and the rental value
donated by two public spirited farm
ers, for the purpose of conducting the
experiments. The work is to be per-
formed under the direction of the
State College, which has secured the
services of an expert in agricultural
development. 1t is to be handled as an
object lesson in diversified agriculture.
Small plats will be planted to various
cereals and vegetables and records of
cost and results kept in order to show
the people that there is profit in small
farming.
This is a most timely undertaking,
and its issue will be full of meaning
for the people of this portion of the
state are beginning to see that the
growth and prosperity of their section
depend in great measure on the break
ing up of the large farms of the pres
ent, and their use in small tracts for
diversified and intensive farming. The
ten and twenty acre orchard points the
way to new order of things, and fifty
small farms owned and titled by men
of small means are what should take
the place of every large farm now
devoted to a single crop that will lend
itself to subdivision, for they will
mean larger and better output from
the silo, easier access to profitable
markets, more homes and bank ac-
counts and greater average degree of
prosperity.
However, as the Rosalia farm has
much the same soil, altitude and eli
mate as the state farm at Pullman, of
far greater practical value would be a
demonstration farm located in this
county, where the experiments could
take into account Typographical and
climatic conditions very different from
those of Whitman county, but prevail
ing over a large area of country.
Looking to this end, DIR. Marcel Piet-
rzYcki stands ready to donate forty
acres of land located on the county
road four miles southeast of Starbuck,
or, If it is preferred, tract of similar
size nearer to that town, both having
excellent water facilities and being
especially adapted to the purpose. The
authorities of the State College should
hasten to take advantage of the oppor-
tunlty thus held out to them, involv-
ing, as it does, a yearly expenditure
OF only few hundred dollars, for in
practical proof that there is profit in
small farming lies the future of South
eastern Washington. Columbia Chron-
icle.

Washington, d. c. President
Roosevelt's latest message has taken

that members who disregard matters
to which the Republican party virtu-
all was committed by the election of
1906 need expect no aid from the
administration for reelection this
year, coupled with what have been
construed as threats that those who
openly obstruct the progressive legis-
lation demanded might look for
actual opposition from the same
source, have turned plans upside
down. AS a result the President is
likely to get more action out of the
House than he anticipated, and pos
sibly from congress as a whole.

tween them; elsewhere still the
sheets are comparatively uubro-
ken, with ebert fragments sus-
pended in the jasperoid inter-
strata. In many of the more
unbroken portions of the ebert
strata traces of former fine
brecciation may be distinguished.
The outlines Of the fragments
are faint, and the cementing ma
terial resembles a network of thin
dark veins. These are not ore
bearing and possibly correspond
to the older sheet brecciation in
the sheet ground deposits of the
Joplin district. AT numerous
places in the mine the ebert is
fractured Vel tically or nearly so.
Some Of these fractures come SO
close together as to constitute
"sheeting" and to conceal the
bedding of the ebert completely.
They are ordinarily rot slic';en-
sided, but are usually stained
dark by the circulating waters.
In general they are open, contain
ing neither ore nor jasperoid,
They are probably equivalent to
the sheeting in the mines of the
sheet ground in the Joplin dis
trict, where also the sheeting is
later than the ore deposition.
The ore in the Mission mine
consists Of sphalerite and lead in
the proportion of ? or ; to l. The
latter is found in assures and
crcvices in the ebert, and the for
mer is disseminated in the jasper
old as well as N the crcvices and
assures. Where both the ores
occur in a pocket, the galena
shows a tendency to be crystal
lied in the upper parts and the
sphalerite in the lower parts. In
the mine as a whole not much
differentiation can be seen, more
lead occurring in the upper por-
tion in some places and near the
bottom in others.
