CUTTING FRACAS
HEARING HELD

Jamestown, N. D., Sept 2s.-The
second stage of the case Of State vs..
Kerner. wherein preliminary exami-
nation was held yesterday in Steele
brought to light a number of devel-
opments which seem to indicate that
Kerner acted on the defensive In the
brawl at Pettibone which resulted in
the injury of william Whalin who is
still In q Fargo hospital, and whom 1t
was feared would not recover from
alleged knife bruises received in the
fracas.
The hearing was a spirited one, the
prosecution being represented by
States Attorney Stanley Of Steele and
Atty. John Knauff OF Jamestown,
while Geo. w. Thorp of jamestown
appeared for the defense.
Under the fine Of cross examination
II was brought to light by Attorney
Thorp from practically all of the wit
nessss who appeared for the state
that Kerner was not the moving par
ty i'm the row, and that he did. not,
without cause or provocation rush ov-
err and deliberately stab Whalin as
originally reported. Several witness
es testified that it was not until long
after the fight was in progress that
Kerner became implicated and that in
an endeavor to save himself he was
forced to the defense.
The case Is attracting considerable
attention in Kidder and Stutsnan coun-
ties, where the parties ere well known,
and for the further reason Of the APP
parently great antagonism which ex-
lists against Kerner by parties in the
prosecution who have employed at
their own expense attorneys to gather
evidence II possible against the ac-
cused.
The defendant Kerner is at the
present time at liberty and win APP
pear at the next term OF district
court in Kidder county and 1t is be-
lieved that when the case comes on
for a hearing tt VIII be one Of the most
stubbornly contested in the history OF
the Kidder county criminal trials.

The unco Good

Beware OF the eminently respect
able citizen with the immaculate per-
sonal habits. Beware of the man
who has no small vices. Beware Of
the person in public life who neither
smokes, chews, drinks or beats his
wife"
Judge Ben Lindsey of Denver gave
these warnings in a lecture the other
day.
Il is the goody-goody boy, said the
Judge, who usually proves the weak
est in the presence OF temptation.
The Judge used the goody-goody man
TO illustrate his idea of the difference
between vice and sin. A good many
small vices, he said, are not neces-
sarily sinful nor indicative of sins
that may be hidden. On the con-
trary, an absence of the small vices
is a psychological evidence Of charac-
ter weakness, rather than of auster-
ity
Judge Lindsey is not quoted as
saying that a collection OF small vi
ces is always a concomitant civic
virtue. He did, however, emphasize
the assertion that as a criterion of
righteousness, the lack of small vices
was entirely misleading-which is
where the Judge is undoubtedly right.

We'll Put.

Some of the Vermont newspapers
that have been strongly urging a
different representation in the legis-
lature are not saying so much about
It since the close of the last session
of that body. They had been say
ing that there should not be one
representative from each town or
city regardless of size or population,
but that each member Of the House
should represent certain number
OF voters, thus forming representa-
tive districts. Would member
from district of three or four
towns so nearly conform to the wish
es of the people he represented, as
do those under the present system
For answer TO that, it is only neces-
sary to call attention to our state
senate and remind you that these
senators are chosen from districts.
Were their doings the carrying out
Of the wishes of the people? The
larger the district, the farther away
from the people do the representa-
tives get in their leglslation.-Lon-
donderry Sitter.

Our esteemed contemporaries
about the state should be careful
what they say about members of the
legislature especially OF high and
mighty senators. No ordinary editor
should venture to question the acts
of a senator, to say nothing of critic
izing him. A senator is no common
place being. The mere fact that he
is senator is proof positive of it. He
is picked from among his neighbors
as one having unusual qualities
wisdom, integrity, honor. high prin-
ciple, He is so much above the aver
age of his fellow citizens that his
fitness to sit in the seats of the nigh
ty is patent to all AS general
thing the people have to go to him
and, almost on Bonded knees, beg
him TO serve them. He never goes
to his constituents as a suppliant for
office. He never pulls wires to get
it. He never asks for votes. He
never binds himself by promises to
his constituents-nor even to his
party.
For a man so mighty and dignifed
as a senator 1t would be demeaning
to do these things. Some of our con.
temporaries evidently have a very
wrong conception of the situation.
They seem to think that they are jus.
titled in calling the attention Of their
readers to what senators are doing
and some even 20 so far as to offer
criticism of their acts. That is alto
gether wrong, shameful in fact.
Senators are not servants they
are masters. What they do con-
Germs them and their consciences.
What's mere party among sena-
tors? Do you expect to hold a sena-
tor in line by anything so insignia.
cant as a party pledge? How foolish.
How immature. How unreasonable.
When you take from the rank and
file Of mankind a man and make him
senator you place him on a pedestal.
You set him apart from all other
men. You leave him alone with his
conscience. Robbed OF the beacons
! by which other men set their cours-
es, he can only consult the little
silent monitor and follow its dictates
blindly even though the heavens
fall.
Should the acts OF such men be
made the subject OF ordinary newspa-
per discussion? II is remarkable
that any newspaper man in enlight-
ened Vermont should 80 far forget
himself as to think for moment
that he is entitled to any such wan.
ton license.-Woodstock Standard.

TOWN MEETING TOPICS

In the town meeting warnings of
the several towns this year will be
found an article to see if the towns
will vote to direct the selectmen to
appoint the road commissioner or
commissioners. The same law pro-
vides that commissioners so appoint
ed may be removed by the selectmen
so that in effect it would actually put
the highways into the hands of the
selectmen.
In Bennington only the voters out
side the incorporated villages of
Bennington and North Bennington
can vote on this question and as it
is the first article in the warning the
rural voters should be on hand next
Tuesday morning at nine o'clock
when the meeting opens and when
this article will be voted on.
The object aimed at by the new
law is a good one. 1t has been found
in few towns Of the state difficult
and in some cases absolutely impos-
sible to elect competent road COM
missioners. In such towns the vot-
ers would insist on electing man
whom they liked personally regard
less Of his ability to properly handle
the road question. Under the new
law the voters can, if they choose,
vote to direct the selectmen to hire
man or men for the work and the
selectmen will be responsible If a
competent man is not secured.
AS far as Bennington is concerned
it is up to the rural voters to decide
for themselves and they should talk
the matter over during the coming
week and be prepared to vote for the
best interests of their own roads.

There has been a renewed interest
in trapping in this section this win
ter and with the high prices of furs
some of the trappers have earned
quite an income. Among the trap
pers are a good many boys and it ap-
pears that some of these have been
throwing dead carcasses into springs
to get rid of them which is contrary
to law The Vermont Statutes fix
a fine of fifty dollars for the pollution
of spring in this way. More than
that the depositing of carrion in a
spring may lead to sickness or even
to an epidemic and the boys inter-
ested in trapping should remember
that as citizens to be they should
have enough interest in the general
good of the town or section to guard
anything as important as the water
supply

CONGRESSMAN PLuMLEY


Congressman Plumleys letter de-
fning his position which letter is
printed in another column is in the
main a highly satisfactory document.
In fact it comes nearer to agreeing
with the views of The Banner than
most any other communication We
ever saw from a member of the pres
ent Vermont delegation in Congress.
There doubtless are those who will
not consider this anything in its IA
vor but it will do them no harm just
for once.
Mr.. Plumley has stated in a few
words the real reason for revision
Of the tariff and the extent to which
that revision should be carried.
There is little hope Of such a revision
at present. With a national election
coming next year the Democrats in
Congress will be careful and circum-
spect, but once they win the presi-
dental contest, the country is in dan
ger.
The alliance of criminal Wall
street with the brothels, the dives and
the gamblers which controls the
Democratic party in New York state
today. Joined with similar gang
from Chicago, the Taggart-Kern
crowd from Indiana and about the
same kind of evils in smaller quanti-
ty from other sections will render
the Democratic party as unfit to re-
wise the tariff as Hell is unfit for a
divinity school-in fact as unfit as
the gang of traders in the nations
honor which has controlled the Re
publican party in tariff matters for
the past ten years, and is only now
reaping the whirlwind. The people
should not forget the facts in trying
for betterment that the Democratic
bosses first sold out the country to
the plutocracy and that the Repub-
lican bosses have kept up the bar
gain.
The hope OF the country lies In the
progressive element Of the Republl-
can and a similar element in the
Democratic party. The great rank
and file Of both parties are honest
but too often allow themselves to be
fooled by some windy demagogue
who promises much but would not
and dare not act. What we want in
public office is honest men not con-
trolled or tricked by the money inter.
ests and not open TO corporation Ak
ing. Preferably they should be Re-
publicans because the Democratic
doctrines OF free trade, fat money,
and wildcat banking are unsound and
would create great hardships among
workngmen and people OF small saw
ings, but above all else, even above
party, we need honest men who can
DO trusted.
We know that Congressman Plum
ley Is an honest man and we hope
that his letter indicates that he is
coming into the progressive ranks.
We think he is wrong on the roelpro-
city issue. Canada with her few
paltry millions OF people Is no more
to DO feared as competitor than
Massachusetts should fear the com.
petition Of Rhode Island, or Bennlng.
ton the competition Of Woodford.
Canada has great natural resources
