sai6 would be self defense.
Smith said he came from Baltimore
originally and he told story of the
affair which to say the least, bordered
on the ludicrous and from the story,
it was hard to determine whether it
was tragedy or comedy.
Both the story of Sarkin and his
wife and of James Fl. Smith showed
clearly that it was dispute in the
morning about foddering the cow, a
discharge and demand for his pay.
Before the jury retired the Frizby
jury came in returning a verdict OF
not guilty.
In charging the Smith jury the
Judge said the charge in this case was
for assault and not assault and battery
as there was--no battery charged.
Robert Corsen, who had pleaded
guilty to the illegal sale of liquor was
sentenced to pay fine of $50 and
given until Wednesday OF next week to
pay it, his-bail being held until that
time.
The Prosecutor having no further
business for the day court adjourned
The jury was out but short time
and returned verdict of not guilty
the clerk taking the verdict.
Wednesday Morning.
When Court convened this morning
Prosecutor Fithian called up William
Roundy and bud" Biddle, who de-
sired to retract their plea of not guilty
to breaking and entering and receiv-
ing stolen goods, and enter plea of
guilty to receiving stolen goods on
all three indictments. The plea was
accepted, but Judge Tuller said he
would not dispose of their case until
later.
The Prosecutor moved the case of
the State against Abe Hall, small
colored boy, indicted for stealing
chickens, and jury was put in the
box.
Frank S. Mckee, .Jr., appeared for
the defendant.
Abram Hall and Leonard Richman

HopeWell farmer. Richman will be
tried separately.
Lewis Dare sworn, said he had
chickens stolen from him June 10th
and September Is. He told the cir
cumstanees, leading to his charging
the boy with Stealing the chickens.
Constable Edward e. Reeves told of
the boys confession of the thefts
which .scorroborated by Constable
Peter Custis and Justice Chas. Field
ing.
The defense was an emphatic de-
Aial, and while the boys signature to
the confession" was by mark the boy
said he could write his name, went to
school and often wrote his name in
school. He denied the responsibility
of the alleged confession. The evil
dence indicates that the boy is good
fabricator.

DELIGHTFUL SCHOOL PROGRAM.

The school entertainment at the
opera house was packed to the limit
with humanity last Friday evening,
not few late comers having to turn
back at the door. Miss Leubner as
impresario and Miss Everett as her
chief assistant succeeded in pleasing
all who were fortunate enough to
get into the hall. The girls quar-
tette, with Misses Mamie Hunter.
Eunice Vail, Ellen Horr and Mary
Lauterbach, delighted all music low
ers with harmony as perfect as
that produced by many professional
musicians, and the final operetta dis
played to advantage the talents of a
lot of the smaller people engaged in
it. All of the teachers in the grade
building contributed Of their time
towards the success of the affair.

FOUND DEAD
( FROM BURNS
Fraak Stadick Of Lucan the
Probable Victim of a
Lamp Explosion.
DIED AT HOME ALONE

To be burned to death without a
person in the house to aid him In
resisting horrible fate was the
hard destiny of Frank Stadick OF
Lucan, some time last Friday night.
The circumstances as The Gazette
learns from brief talks over the
phone with Coroner Aldrich and a
Wabasso subscriber. were these
Stadick is bar tender at one of the
Lucan saloons, and his family con-
sisted of wife and four children,
the oldest about seven. Saturday
morning his body was found on the
floor of the house occupied by his
family, his wife and children being
absent at the time on visit to
Mrs. Stadick's parents, south of
Wabasso. The body was badly
burned about the shoulders and
! trunk, and the broken fragments of
kerosene lamp in the room pointed
~ an explosion or overturn of the
lamp as the cause of the accident.
Coroner Aldrich went to Lucan
Saturday to investigate the affair,
and the circumstances in his opinion
did not justify any other theory than
death by accident. We learn from
former Wabasso people here that
Stadick formerly tended bar in that
town and that he was subject to
occasional sprees. at which time he
was sometimes rendered helpless by
his libations. While this may have
nothing to do with his final taking
off. the extraordinary nature of the
accident would be easier explained
by the possibility of it's happening at
a time when the victim was not in
possession of his mental or physical
powers.
Mr.. Stadick was about % years of
age, and besides his widow and four
children, is survived by a number of
other near relatives in this county.
The funeral was held yesterday
from Wabasso, the former home of
the Stadick family.

FRANK SMITH RETIRED.
Before Leaving for Saltwater, Takes a
Shot at Mrs. Ledbeter.

The Gazette takes little stock in
the morbid sympathy that has been
shown for the convicted criminal.
Frank Smith, in connection with the
Ledbeter case. Whether he was
principal or accessory, he showed
he was a cold-blooded and lying knave
and an undesirable citizen who is
much safer at Saltwater, than at
large. In his farewell interview as
reported in the Free Press, Smith
said:
AT one time Mrs. Ledbeter was
making threats as to what she was
going to do tocertain Redwood Falls
people, when they were talking
about her, and she threatened to kill
them. I asked Mr.. Ledbeter what
he thought about it, and whether he
considered that she would try to
carry her threats into execution, but
he replied that she would not. He
said that a barking dog never bites.
when Mrs. Ledbeter was making
threats against her husband ! remem-
bered what Mr.. Ledbeter had said
about her, and her talk caused me no
uneasiness. Inever mentioned these
threats to Mr.. Ledbeter, as | thought
| that itWould merely make more trou-
BILE between them and do no good, for
| did not think that she would carry
them out.
After the murder, Mrs. Ledbeter
and Mrs. Scwandt and / would talk
ofthe matter evenings, after the chill
dren we're in bed, and Mrs. Schwandt
within two or three days after her
arrival, wanted me to move the body
from the barn. This was talked OF
right along until Mr.. Schwandt ar
rived, and then that night we all did
it" /"
Smith was asked whether he wanted
to make any further or different
statement than he had heretofore
made. but replied: my story is
the same as | told you on the night
after the body was found. and that
told at the coroner's inquest. That
was a true account. and / cannot
alter it. There is nothing more t.
add to it."

ALBERT MARCH HURT
His Backbone DisIocated Yesterday
Afternoon by Falling Limb.

Albert March of Paxton had his
spinal column dislocated yesterday
afternoon. He was working on a
fallen tree back of his house. A
large limb, nearly a foot through.
was sawed half way and left until
another limb could be removed, and
while Mr.. March and his helper were
working on the other limb the big
one snapped and fell with terrific
force midway across the back of
the unfortunate man. A physician
was hastily summoned from this city
and found that Mr.. March's spinal
column had been dislocated by the
crushing blow. The doctor is hope
full, but admits that Mr.. March had
a close call for his life.

Meeting Of Telephone

matter of railroad freight rates
When nomination at the hands of
convention is desired popular favor
is sometimes even source of weak
ness. The politician is wise in his
generation who commits his political
fortunes to interests who have
sources of strength which they can
bring into play at their call.
That many of the friends of county
option are inclined to favor Mr..
Young as a possible candidate there
is no doubt. 1t is extremely improb-
able, however, that Mr.. Young
would allow himself to be put at the
head of movement which had only
for its object the enactment of tenn
perance legislation. no matter how
important he might consider it. He
is not the man to lead movement
the purpose of which is to, disrupt
the Republican party. Indeed, so
far as thatis the design of the county
option people it is likely to defeat its
own purpose. If county option is to
win in this State it must first win
the Republican party. There are
those who say that the party could
not carry the State with county OPP
ton plank in its platform. That is
not my view, although | am free to
admit that we would have an entire
ly new alignment. If the party
would lose in some directions it
would gain in others.

are lower than those now charged.
What is more important is that they
do not discriminate in favor of any
section or locality. Under these
rates for equal distance on the same
class of freight will be equal. So
far as rates within the State are con-
cerned. the country town will be on
an equal footing with the larger
cities. The same principle extended
to interstate shipments would cause
an industrial revolution in Minnesota.
That's what must eventually come.
Minnesota will never occupy its right
tul place as manufacturing State,
nor will its resources be fully devel-
oped until that discrimination which
now saps the life-blood of the country
to build up great congested industrial
and commercial centers has been
done away with.
That of course is not to say that
Mr.. Young's nomination for COVER
nor is probable. He is strong, how
ever, with the people and that, too,
without respect to party. Natur-
ally by reason of what he has done
if for nothing else. his candidacy for
gubernatorial nomination would
meet with opposition. The Republi-
can organization is not in the hands
of those who would look with
favor on the candidacy of man
who had devoted himself to securing
for the people a square deal in the
