TRIED TO BRIBE HIM.
Ericsson and Armstrong Say Money
Was Easy in Cherokee.

C. H. Ericsson and T. B. Armstrong,
the two special agents hired by Gov
error StubbS some time ago to gather
evidence in Crawford and Cherokee
county, nave made sensational charges
against County Attorney A. L. Majors
of Cherokee county in aff1davits taken
at a recent inquisition. They charge
that Majors, in an interview arrang-
ed in his office at which Ericsson and
Armstrong were present, asked them
what they wanted ont of the deal That
at this time the price of protection
agreed upon for liquor law violators
was 500 for a saloon and $50 for a
joint
In his affidavit at the inquisition
Ericsson said:
Il told Majors we had talked the
matter over with the wholesalers, and
that we had agreed upon 800 for each
open saloon and $50 for each joint. Ma
jors said it ought to be very easy for
us to close a deal as they were up
against it and as the state relied on our
evidence for conVicting them He said
ne thought we would have no d1f1culty
in collecting $50 from each place and
that there were so places running.
fully realize how you men feel about
it and you have my sympathy said
Majors You are no longer working
for the state and are under no obll-
cations. l will call Pete Russell this
afternoon, will advise him CT the in
tervieW and will have a man meet
YOU at your hotel at Pittsburg at 1O
O'Clock tomorrow morning.
Ericsson then goes to narrate many
incidents where money was offered him
by jointists for protection. He said
that Majors told him not to worry
about refusing to appear October in
the case against Leck Cowan in re-
sponse to a subpoena Ericsson Sug-
gested that Judge Sapp would not be
hard upon him If he failed to appear,
and Majors replied mo, you neeGn't
let that worry you.
Ericsson stated further in his afhda-
Wit that July 27 a wholesaler named
John Kaulniski told him that most OF
his liquor customers would pay from
$50 to 800 if Ericsson would destroy
the evidence he had against them.
Ericsson told how other liquor deal
ers had tried to get him to brtbe VIII
Montgomery for them, and that they
had admitted that they had tried in
vain to pl-y the special assistant at
fornev general Of Crawford county.
Fricsson cited cases where money was
actually paid over to him. One George
Margotti of Dunkirk paid $25 in an
effort to have a case against him quash-
ed.
It is expected that the Ericsson and
Armstrong affidavits will be used in the
custer suit now filed against County
Attorney Majors in the supreme court:
The suit against Majors was started
at the instigation of the governor upon
eviience secured by the governors spec
ial agents.

RECALLS EARLY DAYS.
Old Pioneer Log Hotel Building Still
Stands at Lincoln.

Lincoln. Aug 15.-One of the land
marks of Lincoln is the building orig
inaUv used for the Pioneer hotel. II
was built in the winter Of 1871-12 by H
J Wisner. It was constructed of logs,
and stood on his homestead adjoining
town.
When Lincoln commenced to grow it
was moved to town, and as trade in
creased four additions were added from
time to time The winter 1t was opened
was a severe one for stock, and several
head owned by Mr.. Wisner were frozen
to death. The sale of the hides brought
in enough money to erect another addi-
ton Fifteen or more landlords have
presided over the Pioneer hotel since
then.
Under the roof of the Pioneer hotel
a murder trial was conducted before d
justice of the peace, it being the only
public building in Lincoln at the time
large enough to hold the crowd. Dur
ing the preliminary examination OF
witnesses it is said the justice OF the
Deace became violently insane
The Pioneer hotel was also a great
rendezvous for bedbugs, and many oc-
cupants of the hotel we're driven out by
their boldness. Lincoln grew and with
her growth a modern hotel was built.
The Pioneer hotel was purchased by
John r. Hunter, who carried on the
poultry and ice industry under its roof
until it became unsafe It stands on
one of the best business corners in
town. It ought to be torn down before
it tumbles down and hurts some one.

WAS SHOT THROUGH HEAD.
But St. Louis Boy Surprises Doctors by
Recovering.

St Louis, Aug. 15.-Four-year-ol An
drew Ceramic played about the city
hospital here with a toy wagon yester-
day as gaily as though he had not been
shot through the head with a bullet
which pierced his brain six days ago
Physicians who said he could live only
a few hours were surprised at his re-
markable recovery. They say that it
is one of only a few known cases in
which a person so injured has recover
ed without serious mental injury.
Members of the hospital staff are
watching the case with interest and
say they. expect nature to knit together
the part of the skull removed.
Andrew was shot Tuesday by play
mate while they were playing cowboy
near the Cerainto home. The bullet
struck the boy in the forehead above
the left eve, went through his brain,
and passed out through his skull in the
roar

capital, made arrangeme with
Judge Colt of the police court whereby
his case was postponed for week.
The congressman's attorney said
that the trouble started just before the
train reached Providence The con-
gresham had rung repeatedly for a
porter to make up the bed in his state
room and could get no answer. When
the conductor came to inspect his tick
ct he refused to show it until he had
received the service he had rung for
The conductor tried to have the
Providence police take up the case, but
they refused and he saw nothing of
the conductor or porter until the train
reached New London, and he was
placed under arrest
According to railroad men, the bell
which the congressman tried to ring
was out of order.
