Object to othsr Names.
The task OF eliminating the dupi-
Gates and duplicates was completed
early this afternoon. In preparation
for an additional attack on the petit
ton the attorneys for the "drys" this
morning furnished the "wets'" lawyers
with list, called Exhibit c." Of OBJ

being claimed that there were no iden-
tical corresponding names on the petit
ton as shown by the poll lists. In this
list there are about 100 such names.
Still Other Objections.
Still additional objections to the
names of signers, in all about 800 of
them, are to- be brought up following
the disposition Of the names on Elk
hibit c." They include those who. 1t
ie claimed, were not residents OF the
city; those who did not sign during
the required period as fixed by law.
names that are not legible. and names
not properly witnessed on the petition.
"vvets" Want Withdrawals.
A demand was made by T. F. Brad
ford and Mr.. Hansen, the latter the
manager Of the canvass OF petition.
that the "drys" should file with the
board at the commencement OF the
canvass all objections. including with
drawals. that they had to the petition.
in order that the "wets" might have
time to prepare their defense Of the Pc
tition.
Mr.. Bradford complained that while
the saloon forces had had but twenty
a. h. 1o1 70 oil fo tho Soofifinn the
"drys" had been given thirty-seven In
which to attack 1t.
Hansen Objected To.
N. .. Keen, speaking for the board.
said the board had complied with the
law. and that while they were COM
PEELED to give at least ten days notice
Of the intent to canvass the petition,
that they could legally canvass 1t as
much longer after ten days as they saw
fit.
j. L. Carney and c. H. Van Law, two
Of the "drys'" attorneys. insisted in
reply to Bradford and Hansen that
there was absolutely no provision OF
the law that compelled them to file
their objections except as they were
reached. He said he understood the
law did not compel them to develop
their case in any other manner than
would be pursued in the trial of an
ordinary law suit:
Carney objected to Hansen speaking
because he was neither a voter nor a
resident. The board did not pass on
the point.
Method Of Procedure.
Having apparently convinced the
board that the speediest manner of
procedure was to strike of from the Pc
tition the known names that could not
be counted the "drys" won an initial
point and are making known their OBJ
lotions only so fast as they reach them.
BY this method of procedure it is ex-
pected that the Withdrawals secured
Will not be brought UP until the other
objections have been disposed Of.

PUTS UP MOTHERS WATCH.
The phonograph was given to young
Bender II years ago as Christmas
present The clock and vase belong to
his mother The boy claimed the right
to sell his property, while his mother
maintained that till he became of age
he had no right to dispose Of it with
out her consent. Last fall he pawned
her gold watch with Schau1, and later
pawned his overcoat at the same place.
Mrs. Bender claimed that she had
warned Schaul against taking articles
from her son.
Because of his connection with the
case which was aired yesterday in
court Schaul was arrested on a war
rant sworn out by Mrs Bender charg-
ing him with having received stolen
property. In order that all evidence
may be secured, and on motion OF AS
sistant States Attorney, Schauls hear
ing was continued till Friday morning
at 9 O'Clock. The articles were pawn
ed last Saturday afternoon and the
fact should have been embodied in the
report Of that date.
REPORT RECEIVED LATE.
However, last night, after the arrest
of the two boys, Schaul brought re-
port to the police station dated June
26-27, and in it said that the articles
were brought in on those dates. He
excused the records by stating that
there had been considerable laxity in
with them. Detective Her
man Sehnert found that Schaul had
nothing to report Sunday, day after
the articles were received.
Schaul bought the clock and vase
and gave no tickets for them.
The state will attempt to prove that
be bought the articles knowing that
they were stolen and that he did so for
his own gain.

Some Suggestions.

Editor The Herald and News: In
the discussion as to the sale OF the
old court house, I suggest that 1t
would be a fine location for livery
stable: There would be plenty of
room around the stable to aecomnno-#:
date buggfes and te hitch and curry
horses. It might be urged that this
would mar the beauty Of the city but
what is more beautiful than q beauti=
fu1 livery stable, with beautiful horses
and beautiful mulesand If it wasn't,
what do we care for looks, anyway.
This property belongs to the county,
and the: town is no part of the Scoun-&
ty, and the county ought to have It's:
money to build a jail. And that brings
up another thought; why not build
the Jail in the centre of the square! J!
A jail is a thing Of beauty, with gem
tlemanly prisoners and If it wasn't,
what difference would It make. or:
how about a lumber yard or a can
ming factory? 3 ~: :. - {. vi ..ss5 :#
