Salem, Ore. Oct. 12.-The Fond du

for several hours here today, and Pres
ident Taft is looking forward to his
visit to Fond du Lac in the insurgent

In order to give Appleton q little

with messages which chased the pres
idential train all the way from Chey-

Of Fond du Lac announced that IL
Fond du Lac could not have Taft for
two hours and half they did not want
him at all.
This decision apparently was not
unanimous, however, for there were
other kilograms sent urging the presi-
dent to come to Fond du Lac even IL
it was only for g. few minutes. Fin
ally the mayor was appeased by the
information that Appleton was to be
given extended time and the matter
was adjusted.

GOES TO PEN.

John Young will serve fifteen years
In the North Dakota penitentiary FOR
having been implicated In the hold up
Of the North Coast limited a few miles
out Of Fargo the night OF July 10.
This morning Young appeared be-
fore Judge Pollock in the district
court and States Attorney Fowler
moved that he be arraigned. The
court then inquired OF Young il he
knew Of any legal reason why he
should not be sentenced. However,
Young failed TO understand the mean
ing of the courts terms and upon re-
quest of the court Atty. M. w. MUIR
ply, his counsel, explained to him the
proceeding. Young stated that he
know of no reason why the sentence
should not be passed ait that time and
the court sentenced him for fifteen
years in the state prison from today
at noon.
In passing the sentence upon Young
the court gave a short talk in which
he commended Young for the manner
in which he had acted since his arrest.
Furthermore the court stated that in
passing the sentence that IL would
bear in mind that the prisoner had
caused the state very little trouble or
expense
In the address of the court Judge
Pollock commented upon the serious
ness OF such crime as Young says
he committed. He also spoke of what
chances Young was running In enter

deed BIS the one perpetrated upon the
passengers of the train and Engineer
Olesen, who was shot at the time the
train was robbed by the three masked
bandits
States Attorney Fowler made a trip
in the country yesterday and secured
evidence which does not leave any
ground that Young could not have
been the man. There is not shadow
of doubt in the mind of the states
attorney but that Young was one Of
the party of men who held up the
train, even though there has been
times when there has been little stock
taken in his confession
Mr.. Fowler found that Young had
left the farm Of Mr.. Redmond, near
Mapleton the evening or July is, and
not the evening after, as MIR. Redmond
had stated. The foreman OF the farm
also corroborated the information of
Mr.. Fowler and records at local en-
ployment agency show that the fore
man came to Fargo July 10 to get q
man to take the place made vacant
by the leaving Of Young. He also
secured some other facts which con-

Lane, one Of the attorneys for DIR. Du-
mas, who was convicted Thursday OF
an attempt to commit arson, is conf

the case. Mr.. Lane declares there
is no possibility for DIR. Dumas con-

He said there has been no appeal.
''The court is simply certifying the
case to the supreme court. After the
evidence for the state was submitted.
we asked for a dismissal, basing our
motion on the proposition that there
was absolutely no testimony tending
to show that DIR. Dumas. Martin Be-
han, Mike Davis or anybody else ever
attempted 10 set fire TO the store ia

with attempting to burn.

grant the motion and that he was con-
WINGED the point was well taken. but
that owing TO expense involved and
the unusual character OF the case, he
had decided to let the trial proceed
and certify the case TO the supreme
court for a decision on a motion for
dismissal"
Mr.. Lane said Dumas was arrested
last night on misdemeanor charge,
He is charged with aiding and albeit
ting an attempt to commit larceny, not
amounting to burglary and Mr.. Lane
said this charge looked to him lik&
