away with, either. There is evidence
 which can be easily produced that
 would show that they intended to in
 elude Jim Johnson, a bitter enemy
 of Neill, in their plot.
 "Sehwartz was killed on the night
 of September IS of last year. I WAS
 not in Williams that night and they
 knew it, and that is very likely why
 they picked that night for their mur
 derous work. Schwartz and his part
 ner, Stevens, were living together.
 About g o'clock Woods went to the
 house of Schwartz and Stevens and
 called Stevens out, saying T want
 you to go with me and help me ar
 rest Neill.' This was a cunning bait,
 as Neill had given Stevens a severe
 skipping a few days before and
 Stevens, the unsophistieated fellow
 that he was, walked right into the
 trap, thinking he had a chance to
 get even with Neill. As soon as
 Woods got Stevens away from the
 house he was joined by Neill and the
 two foreibly took Stevens out to the dam and tied his feet together and attached rocks to his body, intending to drown him. Finally they changed their plan and let him go, realizing that he was so badly scared that he would leave town if given half a chance, and that it would be safer to let him go than to drown him and take chances of his body being found. This part of the story is common information and Neill and Woods do not deny having had Stew ems out at the dam. Neill asked Stevens why he was shadowing him and he said he was doing so for his boss. Detective Schwartz, and that it was in connection with the Poison store robbery. There are reasons which I could give that would show that Neill supposed that Schwartz and Stevens were shadowing him in an effort to work up evidence against him and a Williams woman for vio- lating the Edmunds act. and that if a case was developed against them they both would probably go to the penitentiary. |
 "Stevens was the last man except . the murderers who saw Schwartz alive. Nein and Woods, after let ting Stevens go, went back and got Schwartz and killed him, and buried him where his body was found more than six months later. As an evi- dence that Schwartz was taken from his house by force is the fact that his dog was left locked up. I turn ed it out myself after my return to Williams. Schwartz was very much attached to his dog and everybody who knew him knows he never went anywhere without having his dog along with him.
 "As a further proof that Neill iuu " OOuS dlt SuAAly Ao bhC A0Sb hat they both fled from Williams , when Schwartz body was found"
 But why did they come back and i surrender9' asked the ! exporter.
 "That is very plain" said MT. Dds. According to published re ports, Nein and Woods stated that !; while in hiding they read the Coco lino Sun regularly.

REFLECTION ON FORKS.

The Forum feels that the state COM
mittee to raise funds for the silver SER
vice for the battleship North Dakota
has needlessly reflected on Grand
Forks.
In apportioning the amounts to be
raised by the different counties-Cass
county is to be permitted to dig up
$500. With all the vaunted prominence
OF Grand Forks and it's claims to pop
ulation, wealth and culture, one would
naturally expect the amount appor-
toned to Grand Forks county a close
second. Not so. The committee-after
having decided Cass should contribute
5000 Ear reflects on Grand Forks as
to place Ward county second with $3.50.
It then still further reflects on Fork
Vile by placing 1t a poor third with
$625.
The idea:
Fargoans are willing to admit that
the relative Importance OF Fargo and
Cass and the Grand Forks county and
city 10 at least az great as shown by
the 5000 and the 1926. But what viii

tary OF the state committee is Grand

FRIENDLY RELATIONS.

The people OF North Dakota are to
be congratulated that there Is a big
man at the head OF the state university.
Franklin L. Mcvey, the new president
fully measures up to the standards ex-
pected OF man in such a prominent
position.
President Mcvey has hosts OF friends
in Fargo-people who realize his ment-
al size and breadth OF character. II is
understood that one Of the declara-
tons of the new university head is a
policy for closer and better relations
with other state educational institu-
tons. Such a policy will be strongly
welcome in Fargo and every facility for
increasing the entente cordial between
the A. c. and the u. will be boosted by
every one from President Worst down
to the humblest citizen of Fargo.

THE PRoHlslrIoN PARTY.

The Superior Telegram has the fol-
lowing editorial on the prohibition
party-And the difference In the meth
ods to secure political control.
We have long been of the opinion
that the reason the prohibitionists have
q separate political party and the dis
tillers and brewers have no political
party of their own, but try to influence
the party in power, is because they are
wiser than the prohibitionists. ONCE
seekers OF the old political parties cater
TO the liquor vote because 1t is in the
parties they represent and might de-
feat them. They know the prohibition
lists win not vote for them anyhow
and therefore they do not cater 10
them either before or after election
That Ia where the prohfbitionists az a
party put themselves out OF line with
the existing powers, and whatever
progress Is made in the line OF their
efforts Ia made In other parties and
independent OF their work.
Eugene w. Chain, the prohibittonist
candidate for president In 1908, says
that his party win be one Of the great
organizations In the campaign Of 1912.
and that it wiz carry the country tn
1915. Twelve months ago he was saw
ing that he would pom between OOo

RETIRED OFFICERS.

The difficulties which retired army
and navy officers face is shown in the
following editorial from The Chicago
Record Herald:
When officers are retired from the
army and navy they continue to draw
life-gvtng salaries, salaries that for
certain ranks seem very large to a man
who has a hard time providing against
Old age. In fact the sums received
would be fairly indicative of success
after a business career.
Persons who are trying to earn and
save money In the struggle for exist
ence might think that the goal of hap
piness was thus placed within the
reach Of the soldiers and sailors. but
such, II appears, Is not the case. Once
at the goal the officers find death
awaiting them, though at 90 and Ga
years OF age they should have nany
years OF enjoyment left. Here Ia the
explanation: After service OF forty
or more years in either the army or
navy employment in other lines after
retirement is virtually impossible, and
these men, in the full vigor OF their
mentality and in fine physical condi.
ton, find themselves without any ade-
quate occupation to employ their
minds. 1t is said that this accounts
for so many dying soon after retiring

MIA. M. Baker 10 Now Adver-
Using Manager

For many years--in fact nearly all
the time since The Forum was started
in 1ss1-W4lliam n. Edwards has been
connected with this paper. He started
in as superintendent OF carriers, being
put in this position because he knew
all the tricks q carrier could play to
make 1t unpleasant for both office and
patrons; he was away during the
Spanish American war, serving his
country in the Philippines; later he
went to Alaska as receiver for one OF
thte landofhces there, and then again
he was absent ror a time building M
a farm down on the new line OF the
Milwaukee road. and then returned to
his duties in charge Of the advertis-
ing Of The Forum, a position he has
filled to the satisfaction OF all.
His life on the farm, however
brought new longings to him, and ever
since he has wanted to get 'sback to
nature" His health has not been the
best, and for some trme ne has been
planning to 60 to San Diego, and omen
up small fruit farm. He has re-
signed from this paper and expects to
leave within few days for his new
home, accompanied by Mrs Edwards
and their two children. VIII and his
family will be missed, and all con-
nected with The Forum dislike to have
them leave, but wish them abundant
success In their new home.

THE FARMERS cENsua

When what is to be asked Of the
farmers by the census enumerators is
considered, confidence in the crop and
other official statistics fails, is the
opinion OF the statistician OF the Pitts
burg Post. This fal and next spring
the farmers expect to be able to tell to
the bushel how much of each crop he
has raised, and what he has done with
it; how many acres he has planted;
how many acres are in woodland or
wild, or used for other purposes.
Then he has to tell how many eggs,
how many gallons of milk, how many
pounds Of butter and honey, how many
fowls and how much garden truck he
raised and sold. and for what prices.
Then the farmer is to tell how much
he has paid for farm labor the amount
paid for feed for live stock, also what
has been paid for fertilizers.
The average individual who strug-
les with a cash account or record of
his personal expenses has a much
easier, simpler problem than the farm
er, or even the small manufacturer and
merchant have to answer such ques-
tions. however desirable the informa-
ton they seek. And since It Is a well
known principle Of mathematics that
the sum is OF the same sort as the
numbers composing It, the imposing
statistics Of the bureau on farm pro-
ducts will be no more reliable than the
random estimates Of the hurried farm
er.

Widow, will be given at the Fargo OPP
eTahouse tomorrow evening. The play
Is filled with people who are met
every day waiting for the elevator IN
any Of the big Office buildings, and
Mr.. AIDE endows almost all OF them
with the biting wit which In real
life only appertains to three or four
In every such group. The result Is a
riot Of brilliant lines which are funny
and are something more: they are
characteristic OF the people who speak
them and OF the wild scramble and
rush OF American life.

comedy, is underlined at the Fargo

title role will be essayed by that de-
