BROWN FORCED TO TRIAL
Leader of Minority in Illinois LegisIa- ture Must Answer Representative
 Whites Accusation.

Chicago, 1ll.-Representatiye Lee ONeill Browne lost every point in the technical legal fight he was mak- ing to prevent his second trial on a bribery charge, when Judge Kersten overruled the motion of the defense which had been argued by Attorney Forrest. The court held that the ven- ue of the trial lies in Cook county, up- held the bribery statute, refused to ac- cept the construction of it offered by the defense and refused to bar out the Jackpot" testimony and corrobora- tive testimony of Representatives Link and Beckemeyer
 Judge Kersten indicated he would make a final ruling on these points when the testimony was offered.
 Upon the judges refusal to quash the indictment for lack of jurisdiction or other cause, the examination of the 100 veniremen began at once.

FIVE MEN INJURED IN
 FIGHT OVER NEW MAYOR
ONE PROBABLY FATALLY HURT
 IN BATTLE
Trouble Follows Court Decision Dust. ing Reverend lrI R. Hicks as
 Mayor of Wellston.

St. Louis. Mo.-One man was probably fatally cut, two were seri- ously slashed or shot, and two were badly battered in a battle in front of the Wellston city hall between police men and sympathizers of Charles J. Roberts, who, 24 hours before, was declared mayor of that place, displac- ing the Reverend Irl R. Hicks.
 The fight followed an all-day cele- bration of the busting of former May or Hicks by Circuit Judge G. H. Wur- deman of Clayton, who decided Rob- erts has received a majority votes in the municipal election. Roberts, after being sworn in. assumed charge of the office and his supporters arranged a celebration. Many of the residences of Wellston were decorated in honor of the victory.
 The wounded were taken into the corridor and council chamber of the city hall after the fight Outside a crowd of 400 men gathered and threat. ened further trouble.

State Capitol
 News Notes
THE OLD PRISON IS NOW BEING
 ABANDONED BY THE STATE.
Penitentiary, Southwest of City, Is Under Way.

A few mornings ago Superintendent J. A. Piteock rang the historic pent tentiary bell calling all the guards off the walls. For the first time in 56 years the armed sentries who have paced the top of the brick enclosure retired and left the walls unguarded. This was the signal for the final abandonment of the old prison and the transfer of the penitentiary head. quarters to the new walls southwest of the city At noon the last dinner was served at the old walls.
 The work of demolishing the walls and the few remaining buildings of the historic prison is well under way and by the last of this week there will be scarcely a vestige left, except the cells, which are to be temporar- fly used to house the conyiets used in further work on the capitol ground.
 A few days ago, while raging the old COW stable at the penitentiary, two cases of dynamite and ten kegs of powder were found concealed un- der heap Of rubbish. It is thought the explosives were left there 10 or 12 years ago when the blasting first began on the foundation for the new capitol, and had been forgotten.

The fly net is a saver of feed.

 A Sunday morning in church will not offset week of sharp dealing with ones neighbors.
 The main reason why so many farm CTS are failures is that they are trying to farm and buy their living, instead of raising it.
 The time will come when we will have hornless cattle as sure as we now have thornless cactus. Horns are as useless as thorns. z Some think it an extravaganza for a farmer to have motor car, but we take the position it is better for him to buy gasoline than beer.
 There is coined money enough in the United States to give each resi- dent S35. If you haven't got yours try working on farm this summer.
 If you cannot afford to buy a manure spreader better rent-not bor- row-your neighbours. The use of a rented one for two or three seasons will enable you to buy one.

LONDON FRIENDS ID
 ND DOCTOR CRIPPEN
MESSAGE FROM SOLICITOR SAYS
 EXPENSES WILL BE PAID
Dew, After Talk With Miss LeneVe, Asserts Belief She Is Innocent,
 but Will Shield Companion.

Quebec.Into the prison gloom sur rounding Dr. Hawley Harvey Crippen, held here with his stenographer, Miss Ethel Clare Leneve, in connection with the disappearance of his actress wife, Belle Elmore, came the assur- ance that London friends would de- fend him at his trial.
 Through Arthur Newton, solicitor in the English capital, came the news that funds had been provided to fight the murder charge against the dentist, in the form of a cablegram sent in care of Inspector Dew. The message says:
 Your friends. desire me to defend you, and will pay all necessary ex- penses. Will undertake your defense, but you must promise to keep, abso- lute silence and answer no questions and don't resist extradition. Reply confirming, as good deal must be done at once"
 Whether Crippen has accepted the proffered assistance could not be learned. Neither could the identity of the friends who volunteered their funds in his behalf be ascertained here.
 Judging from his behavior since he was arrested the pale little prisoner on Quebec Heights did not need the warning to remain silent A single monosyllabie negative to his jailer's inquiry whether he wished to give out any public statement was the only message that came from him for the outside world
 Reading in his cell, or silently pae- ing the corridor where he is allowed to exercise part of the day, Dr. Grip pen shows a desire for little except to be let alone. He wanted something to read, and when asked his choice, he sad for one thing he would like a Bible. He received this and sev- eral magazines and novels.

FREEZE IS NOW INSPECTOR or MINES
He Presented a Petition Signed by
 LOAF Miners.

Little Rock-T. A. Freeze of Hun.- ington has been appointed state mine inspector by Governor Donaghey, h accordance with the wishes of the miners Of Arkansas, the appointment being made to fill the vacancy caused by the recent death of James Doug las. It is the rule of the state execu- tive to appoint as an inspector tho choice of the miners of the state and the choice of such official is decided by the vote of the Arkansas miners. The first vote taken by the miners failed to give any one candidate a majority of the votes. The two hign- est candidates were T. N. Davis with 754 votes and D. w. Hogan with 673. Under a former ruling of the Miners Union MT. Freeze, on account of his employment at former period for short time as a mine foreman or su- perintendent, was not entitled to be candidate. notwithstanding he had been member of the union since it's organization in Arkansas in 1893, cx- cept when he occupied the position as foreman, which barred him from membership. In spite of this fact, members of the union circulated pe- tition in his behalf, to which petition they secured the signatures of 1.047 miners, whereupon the governor ap- pointed Mir. Freeze to fill the vacancy.

CRIPPEN STRANGLED WIFE
Attacked Her-Did Not Intend to Commit Murder.

Quebec.-There is no doubt left that Dr. Cri2pen has confessed to Inspec- tor Dew that he killed his wife
 Crippen claims he did not intend to commit murder. His story is that he and his wife had been pickering. He strangled her to make her keep quiet She tainted and later died Fearing the consequences, he made all haste to cover his deed.
 This statement is vouched for by a government official and is the general topic of conversation at the Chauteau Frontenac and the Garrison club Neither Dew nor any of the Canadian police officials will affirm or deny it, but there is a general feeling of relief in police circles.

MANY BENEFITS TO FARMERS
co-oPeration Aids AgricuIturist to Raise Full Crop, Improve Land
 and Build Up Stock.

h nothing has cooperation been of so much service as in farming To brsce the farmer up to raise a full crop. of good quality, of the kind that is most needed and therefore brings the best price, that will improve his land hy manure and drainage and eul. tiyation, that will improve his stock and bring his intelligence into play these are the largest benefits that cone from association in a farmers business organization, says Desert Farmer. Next comes the assembling and manipulation of his crop to put the raw material into shape for the 1acrkcts. one step toward the con. sumer, one middleman skipped. By this association, the benefit of leadership is secured. From the 50 or 100 or 800 constituting the associa. tiQa five or ten directors are selected forsNheir superior ability and their waeangness to apply this ability for the equal good of the less able
 There are these two important diff. ferences between this cooperation and state socialism-it is voluntary each member benefits by his own effort and suffers by his own deficiency What men do voluntarily they com moniy- do better than what they do by force. By process of education in voluntary associations. men would be. come social and find enjoyment in doing not only their own share, but their hncf for hA 1f o1l rrL would not do it as they now are; and there is no ground for the assertion that they would be suddenly changed by change in system Law does not change men. it hardly changes affairs. New laws intended to check men and corporations from getting rich and others from getting poor have been passed ever since we can remember, but there are bigger millionaires and more renters and hirelings now than ever. Such laws fail to work as in- tended
 There is the same opening for get ting rich by trade and speculation and for staying poor by hiring out for ready money now as there was in the ffties, no more and no less. There is better opening now for starting busi. ness than there was 50 years ago. We know of one man who lately com

Most of the farm ITS started there in the last five to fifteen years, with little or nothing, and are doing we'll Among them are several Norwegians from Minnesota Yand Wisconsin, every one of whom is prosperous.

 Asked for by Many Persons.


 Little Rock.-Judge L. A. Byrne of Texarkana and Representative 4. D. Dulaney of Ashdown presented 2 nu- merously signed petition and a num- Der of letters to Governor Donaghey asking for the communication of the death sentence of Oscar Pullen. who was recently convicted of killing Fayette Deloney in Ashdown and giv- en the death penalty. The petition is signed by majority of the citizens of Little River county, asking that the sentence be commuted to life i'm prisonment. The trial judge, prose- cutting attorney and Attorney General Hal Norwood also request that Pullen be sent to the penitentiary for life instead of to the gallows The gov ernor stated that he would take the matter under advisement.
 Pullen admitted killing Deloney. but declared that he was led into 1t by Mrs. Deloney, who, he stated, held a window up while he fired a load Of buekshot into Deloney. Mrs. Deloney was tried and acquitted

MOON LAKE DISTRICT IS NOW CLOSED
All Available Land Taken, Says Of ficial of United States Land Office.

Little Rock.-"The Moon lake dis trict in northeastern Arkansas has been settled, all the available land is taken and there is no more land open for homesteading in this district" was the statement of Guy w. Caron of the United States land office in this city. This district has been government land until recently and had never been surveyed When the surveys had been completed it was decided to open the land for settlement and June 16 was the day for the opening. At that time there were several farmers living on the land and they were given the prior right to settle, according to government regulations. There are only 800 acres in the tract and about eight men filed claims AS their claims were not protested within a certain time limit, they were given the land, and no more is available"
 It was stated that inquiries had been received in the local government land office from people all over the country as to homesteading the Moon lake district, as it had been stated that this section would be opened to settlement.
