NO LICENSES IN DUPLICATE.
Hunting Licenses, Hereafter, Will 81
Issued Only SingIy.

Use of one hunters license fee to en-
able two or more men to hunt in Iowa
will not be possible under new regula-
tions that govern issuance of permits.
No duplicate permits will be issued.
The practice has been in some places
to issue permit and duplicate on
request so the hunter could screw one
of the permits into the butt end OF
each of two guns. Many hunters
carry their licenses in this fashion be-
tween the metal stock cap and the
stock itself. to avoid difficulties about
a forgotten permit if a game warden
is encountered. In abuse Of this dup
licate privilege, some hunters have
loaned their extra permits to others,
it is stated.

Wronn Conclusions Drawn.

The court also was said 10 be in
error because he HAD permitted Solic-
tor Dorsey and Attorney Frank
Hooper I'm their arguments 10 draw
UnWarranted conclusions, after these
conclusions had been objected 10 by
Rosser and Arnold. One OF the in
stances cited was Hooper's Cnalge
that the failure OF the defense to
cross examine the girl witnesses put
on the stand by the State was a tacit
admission that Frank was guilty Of
immoral acts and practices to which
the witnesses had alluded broadly.
similar argument was made by
Solicitor Dorsey, who maintained that
because the defendants wife failed
to visit him for some time after he
Was taken TO the Tower she had the
consciousness of his guilt in her heart.
Arnold. in speaking in defense of
another reason resented the innuendo
contained in the Solicitors declara =
ton that 81 wouldn't be surprised if
the family physicians Of some of you
jurors had been called to testify on
the stand" the implication being that
Franks lawyers shrewdly had engag-
ed the jurors family physicians in
order that their testimony might have
more influence, although they were
not experts on the particular line OF
evidence before the court.

Object to Word Employ"
For nearly an hour the attorneys
wrangled over the using of the word
employed" in one OF the reasons
The defense held that the court had
erred in permitting over the objec-
lions of the defendant the testimony
of Detective Black that Frank had
employed counsel the Monday morn
ing after the crime
Dorsey objected to the wording
saying that there was nothing in the
record TO warrant the use of "em-
ployed.' After this one word had
deadlocked proceedings as effectually

al point, A compromise was reached
by revising the paraphrase OF Black s

Detectives Starnes and Black, who
we're assigned 10 Solicitor Dorsey to
work under his direction on the in
vestigation into the Phagan murder
mystery, have been in constant at
tendance since the hearing began
Wednesday.
Franks lawyers sprang a surprise
in the last of their long string Of rea
sons, holding that by the States the
DRY Jim Conley was an accompllce
and that his testimony therefore could
not be accepted except as corrobo-
rated by the circumstances or by an
other witness. The Solicitor remarked
that he had not considered this propo-
sition, but would be prepared to talk
on it later in the hearing.
The reason charged that the court
erred in not instructing the jury that
IL they believed from the evidence
that Conley watched for Frank at the
pencil factory door, and that his pur-
pose in watching was to protect Frank
in the commission OF acts which con-
stitute felony in the State OF Geor-
gia, then Conley, as to any alleged
murder committed in the progress Of
any such attempt to commit the acts
that were described by the negro,
would be an acoomplice. and the jury
could not give him credence unless
he was corroborated by the facts ami
circumstances or by another witness.

LEG MANGLEO IN

George Harter of Pleasant Twp,
Meets With Serious Accident.
Monday.
TAKEN TO La CROSSE
HOSPITAL YESTERDAY.
Left Leg Below Knee Badly Cut and
the Bone Splintered. Leg Will
Perhaps Have to be
Amputated.

A most distressing accident hap
pened Monday to George Harter OF
Pleasant Twp, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Harter, who are now in Ger
many on visit, having one of his
legs mangled below the knee in a
mower guard. He had approached
a gate to enter the field, and after
opening the gate the team became
frightened and started to run. Mr..
Harter attempted to stop them but
was thrown In front of the guard,
which was down, and as result his
leg was badly mangled, and he was
dragged some distance, but fortu-
nately for him the guard struck a
stump and the whipple trees
snapped and the horses got
away, otherwise Mr.. Harter perhaps
would have lost his life. Drs. Hex
ON of Highlandville and Jewell or
Decorah were called and eased the
unfortunate man as much as possi-
BILE. While the leg was fearfully
cut and the bones splintered the doc
tors decided not to amputate the
limb, and Mr.. Harter was taken to
the La Crosse hospital yesterday in
the hopes of saving the leg, which
we sincerely hope can be done.

Bleeding a Continent.

The total Panama excavation for
the transisthmian canal will be 210,-
100000 cubic yards. The annual
erosion of the banks of the Missis-
sippi River alone tributaries exclud-
ed) is estimated at more than 1000
00 900 cubic yards.
The Mississippi in food is eight
times the volume Of mighty Niagara.
The annual losses in the Ohio val
ley alone exceed $50 100000 and
the Ohio is only s67 miles, long and
drains but 100000 square miles.
Clifford Pinchot estimates the flood
losses since 1900 at $1,000, 1000, 1000,
and statisticians agree that direct
flood losses within the last half CELL
tury exceed the total cost of all wars
(including the Civil War;
Floods in the Mississippi Valley

cry year nearly 100000 tons of
the richest soil in the whole great
basin, and the irony OF the loss Is
biting when it is remembered that
this vast area of alluvial is wrenched
from the producer only to obstruct
navigation by depositing bars or shall
lowing channels, and that this same
producer must be taxed to pay for a
second removal of his lost produc-
ing area. All of these figures have
been on the direct lines of dollars or

be presented to the judge before the
argument to the jury is commenced
and befor reading his charge to the
jury. The judge, before reading his
charge to the jury, shall present all
instructions to counsel on either side,
each of whom shall have a reason
able time in which to examine the
same. All objections or exceptions
thereto must be made before the in
structions are read to the jury and
must point out the grounds thereof
specifically and with reasonable ex-
actness; but upon a showing in a
motion for new trial that an error
in such instructions was not discov-
cred by the party claiming the error
at the time of the trial, such objec-
tions or exceptions may be made in
the same manner in such motion for
new trial, and no other objection
or exception to the instructions shall
b considered by the supreme court
on appeal, except those made as
above provided. The objections or
exceptions shall be considered by the
trial court upon motion for new
trial or otherwise, or by the supreme
court upon appeal"
This new addition to the Code of
Iowa was adopted in the belief 1t
would go far toward ending the re-
versal of casses. by the appellate court
on technicalities. 1t puts a complete
end to the system of lawyers work
ing a trial to cumber the record
with errors and to leave them unno-
ticed until they get to the supreme
court. 1t places a burden on the
court and will cause some delay in
getting cases finished and to the
jury; but it also places a responsible
ity on an attorney to see that the
case is properly presented to the
jury in the instructions.
Another new law removes the pro-
lection from a witness who is testi-
flying in any case involving the Gre
etion of a trust or pool combination,
etc. Such witnesses will not be per-
mitted to shield themselves by the
claim that their testimony would
criminate themselves.
