Kenyon Bill Likely To Pass.

Thee Kenyon-Sheppard bill, the
object of which is to enable the
Federal Government to prevent the
shipment of liquor in Interstate
commerce into States where the sale
of liquor is forbidden, is apparent
ly on the road to successful pas
sage. Two weeks ago it seemed al
most certain that things were so
arranged in the Senate as to pre-
vent this bill from coming to
vote. BY accident, however, a
unanimous consent agreement was
entered upon. which the opponents
to the bill have found themselves
unable to break. So, on Feb. 10,at
3 o'clock in the afternoon, the bill
will be voted upon. Its friends be-
lieve that they will be able to Sc
cure a majority for the measure.
A canvass of the Senate shows
that some Senators at least who
have been trying to block vote
are now standing aside and will
support the bill. It is also stated
that the House Committee on the
judiciary, OF which Mr.. Clayton, Of
Alabama, is chairman, is preparing
to report out the bill. Representa-
tives of the wholesale liquor inter-
ests are discouraged, and there is
q plan by which the bill may be
modified in the House committee
or in conference. One thing which
is operating to force the passage of
the bill at this session is that the
friends of Mr.. Wilson would prefer
not to have him embarrassed by the
liquor question at the outset of his
administration. The bill embodies
an important principle, and one
whose eonstitutionality will doubt
less be seriously contested in the
Court. The principle is exactly the
same as that upon which the Boob
er convict-made goods bill is based,
and the passage of the Kenyon bill
would make the passage of the
tBooher bill practically certain. =

George Stevenson, COlored, Re
leased From House of Cor
rection on Habeas Corpus
Proceedings, Remand
ed to County
Tail.

Whether or not his condition has
been bettered is a question that is
giving George Stevenson, alias Geo.
Lewis, and his family, no little con-
Germ. During the early part OF
December Stevenson, who is col
ored man, was tried before Police
Justice Fielder G. Jones, upon the
charge of assault. Justice Jones
found him builty and sentenced him
to spend six months in the Mary
land House OF Correction.
Upon the application of his wife.
Linda Stevenson, through Attorney
William N. Andrews, writ Of ha-
beas corpus was secured from the
Circuit Court, and the prisoner was
delivered into the custody of Sheriff
Bradshaw. When the case came up
at the present session of Court, the
Court remanded the case back to
Justice Jones, and until it is tried
Stevenson will remain in Jail.
AS the evidence against Steven

as to remove the shadow of doubt
as to his guilt or innocence, the
question of what will happen to him
when he comes up before the Court
again Is one that Is giving him and

thought.

Richmond P. HObsOn Will Lecture on

The Chautauqua season for Red

Company of Chicago Friday, July 4.
This company will give both after
noon and evening programs and come
with splendid recommendations from
every place they have visited.
Richmond Pearson Hobson will be
here Sunday to give his big address
on "The Destiny of America" and
from then until the last program July
II, there is constant feast of good
things.
The committee appointed to sell
tickets report that two hundred must
yet be sold before the guaranteed
number is disposed of. Should the
committee not succeed in selling the
required number, the citizens signing
the guarantee will of necessity have
to make good the deficit. 1t would
seem that with the splendid program
presented this should be unnecessary.

THE DREAM CHANGES HANDS
Robt. Byram Will Be New Manager
of Popular "Movie" To Reopen
In August

The Dream was purchased by M. 0.
Byram last week and will be under
new management when next opened.
Mr.. Byram made the purchase for
his son Robert who expects to open
the Dream to the public again some
time in August. For a time the pre-
sent building will be used. However
Mr.. Byram contemplates erecting
special building for this purpose some
time soon.
Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Huntsberry,
who have been the popular managers
of this popular place of entertain
ment, have gone to Forest Lake to en-
Joy a we'll earned vacation-and
dream of their future plans. 1t is
sincerely hoped these plans may bring
them back to Redwood Falls to make
this their permanent home. Wher-
ever they go they deserve success
and are bound to get it.

Two Are Injured on
New High Bridge
w. d. Higgson Sustains Injuries to
Back and Fred Lobdell Has Hand
Crushed

There have already been two vic
Tins to the building of the high bridge
across Redwood river.
The first accident befell w. D..
Higgson last Saturday
Mr.. Higgson slipped while at work
on a girder about twenty feet from
the ground and fell. He struck upon
steel tie, the full force of the fall
being slightly broken by his throwing
his arm over another girder just be-
fore he struck the ground.
Mr.. Higgson fell with his hips and
back across the tie, and that he es-
capped death is remarkable.
The spinous process of one of the
lower vertebra was broken and Mr..
Higgson was severely bruised, but
sustained no serious internal injury.
The second accident took place
Monday morning when Fred Lobdell
had his hand badly injured, by a steel
tie rolling over it. One finger was
broken and the hand seriously
crushed. However the surgeon in
charge thinks Mr.. Lobdell will be in
no sense handicapped after the time
necessary for the injury to heal.
While these two accidents are la
mentable it is rather remarkable there
have been no more. The work of re-
moving the old bridge is the particu-
larry dangerous period in bridge cree
ton. The new work is much simpler
and the workers then are much less
liable to accident.

D. R. McCorquodaIe
Marries Miss Gray
Prominent Redwood County Citizen
Wins Popular Young Lady of
Lake City
WERE MARRIED ON SATURDAY
Happy Pair Now Making Extended
Tour Visiting Mountains, Coast
and National Park

Miss Helen Perry Gray and Duncan
R. McCorquodale were married last
Saturday at the home of Miss Gray's
mother, Mrs. James Gray, at Lake
City.
The ceremony was performed at
five o'clock in the living room which
was banked with ferns and white car
nations. The bride, attended by her
little neice, Helen Dougherty, as flow
er girl; descended the open staircase,
at the foot of which she was met by
the groom and Rev. c.. C. Adams of
Minneapolis. The party then marched
to the living room where Rev. Adams
read the beautiful and impressive ring
service.
After the ceremony, luncheon of
three courses was served in the dining
room, which was decorated with red
carnations and ferns. Roses were
used in the library decorations.
The brides gown was of white i'm
ported wolfe hand embroidered and
draped with shadow lace. She car
ried shower bouquet of brides roses
and lilies-of -the-valley.
The wedding was quiet one, only
immediate relatives of both bride and
groom being present. However it
was exquisitely beautiful in all its de-
tails, and the epitome of good taste.
Mr.. and Mrs. McCorquodale left
Saturday evening for trip through
the Canadian Rockies to the coast
where they will make an extended
tour. On their return trip they will
visit Yellowstone Park.
The guests from abroad who at
tended the wedding were: DR.. and
Mrs. John Kennedy and son of Arri-
ba, Colo, Rev. and Mrs. C. C. Adams
of Minneapolis, Mr.. and Mrs. Emil
Kuenzli of Redwood Falls, Mrs. E. G.
Pomroy of Delhi, Mr.. and Mrs. E. E.
Dryden of Red Wing, Miss Belle Nc
Corquodale of Echo, Alex. McCorquo-
dale of Echo and Walter Gray of Min
neapolis.
Mrs. McCorquodale is by no means
a stranger to her new neighbors as
she at one time taught in Lamberton,
and was also principal of the Delhi
schools in the past. Her many ac-
quaintances have only words of praise
for her and congratulations for them
selves that she is to again make Red
wood County her home. Mrs. Nc
Corquodale has recently been an in
structor in the public schools of Du-
luth.
Duncan r. McCorquodale is SO well
known and so much beloved in Red
wood County that any word of appre-
citation The Gazette might give would
fall far short. He was at one time
Commissioner and made friends ev-
erywhere by his steadfastness and in
tegrity.
He is at present engaged in agricul-
ture and stock raising at Delhi and is
one of the county's important capital
lists.
Redwood Falls and Redwood county
stand ready to give a hearty welcome
to Mr.. and Mrs. D. r. McCorquodaIe.

(By julius A. Schmahl.)
st. Paul. June 30

~. dui, uhlC on
When The Gazette goes to its read
ers on July l there will be approx
mately 10000 automobiles in the state
of Minnesota. Of this number $4,000
will have been registered individually
in the secretary of states office, while
the other 1000 will be in freight cars
ready for delivery, or in the store
houses of dealers. At the present
time the estimated average value per
machine can be fixed at $1,000, or a
total valuation of $40,OOO,OOO.
1t was at Shakopee on Decoration
Day of 1910 that the writer called at
tention to what might be termed an
extravaganza on part of the people of
this state in purchasing automobiles,
and at that time there was word of
caution thrown out, fearing inan-
cial panic due from automobile mania.
When the registration of 1909
closed there were something over T.
900 machines registered in the state.
The year 1910 closed with registra-
tion of 12,200, and the year 1911
closed with a registration of a few
over 10000.
The heavy jump each year has
caused an alarm on the part of bank
ers who were engaged in financing
these heavy purchases, because at the
close of 1911 they realized that Min
nesota had spent over $19,00O,0OO
alone for automobiles in the three
years. This sum did not include the
cost of operation and maintenance,
which is no small item, and set at
naught the writer's 1910 prediction of
an earlier panic growing out of the
craze for these machines.
New Registration Ruling
The 1911 Legislature made pecul-
lar provision for the registration COM
mencing Jan. LIST, 1912, providing that
for $3.50 the auto owner could regis
ter his machine from that time until
Jan. 1st, 1915, and that any new ma
chine registering after that time could
be registered until the latter date, but
the price would be S1.50. In other
words, if you secure license for your
machine in December of 1914 you will
have to pay s1.50 for the same, and it
will be good only until Jan. 1st, 1915.
But to return to my original
thought. When 1912 gave way to
1913 there were nearly 10000 ma
chimes registered by the state depart
ment, and when the spring season for
1913 opened the applications were GO
ing into the department at more than
200 per day, with the result stated in
the first paragraph of this article.
That 1913 will close with a registra-
ton of over $4,000 there is but little
doubt.
This will mean $4,000 900 of Min
nesota money is invested in automo-
biles, and $4,000 machines in Mime
