Lorimer First Exonerated

After a lengthy debate, in the course of which Lorimer delivered a sensation ally brilliant speech defending himself, the majority report was adopted by the Senate on March l, 1911, by vote of 40 to i0 five not voting.
 Meantime the case had startled Illinois and the state was ablaze with the deVel- opmerts. Indictment after indictment was found against the members of the legislature which elected Lorimer. White had 'confessed" that he was given SlOOO by Representative Lee O'Noil Browne, democratic leader of the legislature. and 800 by Representative Robert 0. Wilson to vote for Lorimer.
 Browne was indicted for bribery. At his first trial the jury disagreed and at the second trial he was acquitted. Charges of jury bribery in connection with his acouittal were made. but jury which tried the jury bribing case disagreed. Representatives Wilson and Michael s.. Link were indicted for perjury.
 The Illinois legislature took up the scandal and the Helm Investigating committee was appointed after the United States Senate had exonerated Lorimer. While this committee was in session Clarence s. Funk, general manager of the International Harvester company, testified that he had been asked by Ed ward Hines the wealthy lumberman, to give s10OO0 of $10O000 fund to help "put Lorimer over at Springfield" This ere ated another sensation and resulted in the reopenng of the case in the Senate.

FORKS WEEKLY. =

Mrs. Alice Nelson Page, who up to
October /, was connected with the In
ter-Ocean, as editor, has accepted a
position as city representative on the
Progressive Observer, the new Grand

in securing the services of such an ex-
ceptional representative, and Mrs.
Page in being connected with such a
live up-to-date paper. That Mrs. Page
has decided to return to newspaper

COURT HOUS
WAS THE SEEM
OF SMALL BLAZE

.. (.
A fire of such proportions that it
would have doomed the Ramsey coun-
.ty court house in a little time, had it
not been for the efficient work Of the
fire department, was extinguished aft
.er an hours fighting Sunday after
noon. The fire started III the base
Iment Of the court house near the fur
mace and when discovered, the flames
had gone through the flooring and
walls to the county jud ge's office. 1.
y The damage done was confined al
most entirely to the: judges office but
here the fire completely destroyed the
office fixtures, such as typewriters,
desks, tables, chairs and volumes of
books. The damage is thought to be
in the neighborhood of $1,000. This
amount will be covered by insurance.
