Special to Times Republican.
here Saturday evening, after a very
busy session The presiding judge was
Hon. ]. j. Clark, of Mason City. who
occupied the bench here for the first

The case of RENTS & DeBuhr. of APP

Exchange Bank at that place, VS.. John
Uhlenhopp of Hitesville. five miles
southwest Of this town. was the i'm
portant case of the session. and was
contested as closely as any case which
we have ever seen tried in this court
The facts surrounding the case are
these:
One j. f. Schurmann, who was in
the land business at Arlington, some
five years ago. gave a note to the
plaintiff for $4,000, which WAS signed
by Henry Sherman, John Uhlenhopp
and j. j Uhlcnhopp as sureties. The
note was for one years time. About the
time it became due. the bank told him
it would have to be looked after. and
he said that he could not pay it. and
would secure a renewal therefore. and
the bank made out new note for SILL
900, taking up some additional paper of
Schuirmann's. and gave it to him TO go
out and obtain the signers. The note.
duly returned to plaintiff bank. con-
tanned the names of the principal. and

sureties. The latter note was payable
on demand. and after carrying it for
about four years, during which time
the principal repeatedly promised pay
ment, the bank found that said prin-
cipal maker had become nsolvent.
They then attempted collection from
the sureties. and the defendant, Uhlen
hopp denied that he had ever signed
the note, and maintained that j. F.
Schuirmann had told him the $4,000
note was paid. and he relied on that
statement and knew nothing of an Sill
900 note It was on these issues that
the case was fought out. The Trial oc-
cupied a week. and the jury returned
their verdict Sunday morning, after
celebrating about twelve hours, find

CHAMBERLAIN'S
COUGH REMEDY
GIVES UNIVERSAL SATISFAC-
TION.
Best Remedy in the Market For
Colds, Group and Whooping
Cough---It Always Cures
And Is Pleasant and
Safe to Take

II never had medicine in my store that
gave such universal satisfaction as Cham
berlain,s Cough Remedy" says Mr.. P. NJ.
Shore, of Rochester, Ind. at is the best
remedy to-day on the market for coughs,
colds and whooping cough. One of my lady
customers told me recently that she could
not keep house without it, that since they
have been using it they have had no need
of doctor" In case of a severe attack of
Group q physician will usually call twice,
and perhaps half dozen times in severe
and long protracted case of whooping cough,
wilhelm pneumonia it is often necessary that
he calls once or twice a day for a week or two.
All of this trouble and expense may be
saved by the judicious use of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, for it is certain cure for
Group, and when given as soon as the child
becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy
cough appears it will prevent the attack.
Pneumonia can also be prevented. This
fact has been fully proven, as during the al
most forty years in which this remedy has
been in general use, no case of cold or at
tack Of the grip has ever resulted in pneu-
monia when this remedy was used, SO far as we
have been able to learn. It will be seen that
. little forethought and by doing the right
thing at the right time, all danger and ex-
pense may be avoided. Bear in mind that
every bottle of this remedy is warranted and

Congressman Mckinlay, who four
years ago prosecuted Harvey for mis-
use of the mails out that way. This
letter led to Harvey's arrest here yes

Harvey says that five years ago
when he was prosperous he incurred
the cnmity of the Mormon element in
his county out i'm Idaho, that they
broke up his home and sent him TO
Jail. and that while he was in Jail his
wife got a divorce. Later he was sent
to an asylum in Idaho but was re-
leased after month or two on a
habeas corpus writ. Harvey says he
wrote to President Taft With the idea
of having his case brought to the

he has written 1000 similar letters,
most Of them while the coWpuncher

the good of the city, some of the best
citizens mapped out plan by which
one ticket only would he put in the
field, the candidates thereon to be from
among the best men to be found, and
of different political parties.
To some of those who enjoy an ex-
citing contest, this program, which was
made and agreed to by the committee
men of the two parties, did not meet
their approval in the least. Repudiat-
ing the agreement into which the COM
mitteemen had entered, followers of the
citizens party met in caucus and put
up candidates as usual. W. L. Morton,

alley to burn them. When he opened
the door of the receptacle in which
the refuse is burned, he was surprised
to find package therein containing
a suit of clothes. How they came there
is a mystery. 1t is the theory of the

clothes for new ones. None of the
