from $4,000 to $4,000 an acre.

JUST ACROSS THE LINE

Men and women in Wisconsin who
love one another well enough to
marry, with the very proper idea of
living together in love and honor for
the rest of their lives, are up against
an obstacle which many believe will
depopulate the state, increase the
number of common-law marriages,
permitted under the laws of the state,
or may be the cause of even greater
evils.
The obstacle is the eugenic mar
rage law, which went into effect on
Jan. 1. The day before it became
effective nearly 100 marriage Ii
censes were issued in one city; on the
first day it was operative none were
issued and since then, according to
report, few if any applications for
marriage certificates have been
made. One couple, refusing to abide
by the provisions of the law requiring
a physical examination ats$3 per ex-
am, went to a lawyer and drew up a
legal contract making them man and
wife under another Wisconsin law.
Regardless of how advisable
that law or any other proposed rene
dial measure might be, if nation wide,
the fact that laws can be evaded by
crossing a state border line or by
taking advantage of some other law.
makes them absolutely null and void
as far as the purpose for which they
were framed is concerned.

Hugh Craig, who made single tax
stick in a city of pIUtocrats.

Piedmont, CAL, Jan. 16.-Hugh
Craig, mayor of this suburb of Oak
land where only multi1millionaires
live, has, despite violent protest of
the rich men, inaugurated single tax
and made his municipality model
for equal taxation.
1.-THE law requires that property be
assessed at it's full market value"
explained Mayor Craig. rIn most
cities it is assessed at about 25 per
cent of it's market value and the i'm
proved property is penalized by be-
ing forced to pay the bulk of the taxa
ton. The only way to reduce the
taxation of any county is to equalize
the assessments which are shame
fully unjust to the small home
owner"
Imagine the storm of protest that
arose when Craig, ga nut on the sub
ject of tavation," raised the assess
ments of the rich men of Piedmont to
something like the actual value of the

CONTESTANT TO WILL
GETS VERDICT IN COURT

The verdict of the jury in the Hoff-
man will case. decided last night, was
in favor of the contestant, Mrs. Isa-
bella Meehan, one of the married
daughters of Mrs. Mary Hoffman,
whose division of her estate was con-
tested. The proponents were Henry
II. Hoffman, one of the sons, and 9TH
er children of the deceased.
During the progress of the case the
testimony alleged that the deceased
was not in a proper condition men
tally to prepare the will in contest,
also that at the time of the penning
of the document, a short time before
the demise of the maker. The jury
believed that Mrs. Hoffman had been
unduly Influenced.
1t is said the amount involved in
the estate is about $4,000. The con-
testant was not made a participant
in the will, the mother alleging that
she had had her share beforehand.
Originally the estate consisted of 800
acres in Clay county which ultimate
ly was sold to John Hanson, the
dairyman, for about $4,000, which it
is alleged was used to hquidate g.
mortgage On the property. Also, there
was farm of BAL acres in North Da-
kota. After the death of Mr.. Hoff-
man, Mrs. Meehan became manager
of the farms. which was not wholly
satisfactory to other members of the
family, and a legal action ensued, In
the course Of probating the will, the
latter was admitted to probate by
Judge Sharp. Mr.. Dosland and Mr..
Rustad appeared as counsel for the
contestant and Senator Marden and
Mr. Russell for the proponents. 1t
has not been stated whether the case
will be carried to the higher court or
not.

WOMAN SCALDED
TO DEATH BY
WATER CURE"
AT HOSPITAL

Fergus Falls, July 9.-Scalded fear
fully by the carelessness of a nurse
in giving a water cure at the Fer
gus Falls state hospital for the in
sane, Mrs. Hilda Moline died after
five days Of suffering, according to a
report just given out at the hospital.
Her body has been sent to AleXan-
dria, her former home, for burial.
Faucet Failed to Work.
The nurse, it is explained, turned on
both hot and cold faucets in the bath
tub in which the woman had been
placed for treatment, but the cold
faucet did not work properly, and the
hot water came in too fast. The wat
er treatment is often given, it is ad-
mitted, in cases where patients are
unmanageable. Immersion in warm
water serves to quiet the nerves. and
sometimes effects a cure Of violent
failed to work properly.
I'VE have had no report that
know of Of the case," said Secretary
Downer Mullin Of the state board of
control. THE members of the board
may have heard of it, but they. are
away and it has not come to my at
tention."
Nurse Is Dismissed.
The nurse who gave Mrs. Moline the
bath has been dismissed, according to
DR.. c. G. Burlingame, first assistant
physician at the hospital. 1--WE held
her here" said DR.. Burlingame, "un-
til the authorities had opportunity to
question her and see whether she
would be wanted. She was question >
ed by the coroner, who decided not to
proceed further, and we let her go.
Accident Is Explained.
THE water used In the treatment is
supposed to be teIid, but in this case
the city water pressure, which fur
nished the cold water, had failed. The
hot water comes from our own tank.
The nurse had placed the woman in
the tub and turned on both faucets.
She did not know the water was
coming hot until the tub was full,
She Immediately drew off the water
and turned on cold, and everything,
was done for the poor woman, but it
was too late"

in South Dakota and dry weather in
Canada. The latter may become a
factor, as the rainfall is deficient in
that territory to date. The market
is extremely nervous and moves 1-2c
in either direction with very little
trade, and it is liable to continue in
this manner for the next two weeks or
more. We advise caution in trading
at the present time and think a scalp
ing attitude of buying on breaks and
selling on bulges the safest.
Corn and oats-High temperatures
prevailed over the middle states and
there was also an improved demand
for the cash article. We are inclined
to feel friendly to both of these COM
modities, more especially corn as the
government report does not indicate
crop that will make up last years
deficiency, and we think the scarcity
of old corn will assert itself on this
crop before the new one is available.
The price at which December corn is
selling will not appear attractive to
farmers who have been receiving 10
cents and we are friendly to the long
side of all breaks.

LABOR EXENP PTION
CLAUSE STICKS"

Washington, July 9.-All efforts in
the senate to alter or eliminate the
labor exemption clause of the sundry
civil bill section providing funds for
the enforcement of the anti trust law
were voted down. Two roll calls put
the senate on record in favor of the
exemption clause which caused the
veto of the last sundry civil bin by
President Taft and which President
Wilson. in memorandum made when
he signed the same measure, charac-
terized as "unjustifable in character
and principle.
The clause provides that no part of
the fund shall be sI'ent in the prose-
cut1on "of any organization or indi-
vidual for entering into any combina-
ton or agreement having in view the
increasing of wages, shortening of
hours or bettering the conditions of
labor or for any act done in further
ance thereof, not in itself unlawfuP.
Cooperative farmers organizations
are also exempted.
Senator Sterling Of South Dakota
proposed to strike out the exemption,
characterizing it as vicious class leg
islation".
Senator Hughes Of New Jersey de-
Tended the provision, declaring that
the antitrust laws were directed
against great trusts and industrial
combinations. and that the fund in
question should not be diverted to the
prosecution Of labor organizations.
The Sterling amendment was laid
on the table by a vote Of IL to 81, only
one democrat, Senator Ponerene, vot-
ing for it. Republicans who voted to
sustain the exemption were: Sena-
tors Brady, Clarp, Cummins, Jones,
Kenyon and Norris. Senator Poindex-
ter also voted for the exemption.
An amendment by Senator Suther-
land of Utah to insert in the prcSyi-
sions the words "'by lawful means.
was voted down. 3S to %.
Later the bill ITSELF carrying Sill
100000, was passed without further
serious opposition.

two Mexican factions The Huerta
delegates do not expect to remain in
New York indefinitely and in 4 few
days, 1T is believed, they will announce
the position of the Huerta government
and return to Mexico
Whether the mediation would terrri-
nate then, ending the armistice between
American and Mexican forces at Vera
there is much speculation. The general
impression Is that the United States
will continue to exert pressure to
bring the factions into conferences and
that in the meantime some arraags-
ment with the Huerta government for
the maintenance of the military status
quo at Vera Cruz would be effected.

that no tears will be shed in this city
as from the first mention of the pro-
