BREAK IN DODSON DAM

Following a cloudburst Sunday
night, considerable damage was done
to the Dodson dam when the waters
started pouring through an opening
in the bank near the south abutment
of the main dam. When first discov-
cred the opening was only large
enough to step across and despite ef-
forts to change the course of the
water, in few hours the opening was
rs feet. Project Engineer Schlecht
was Of the opinion that the concrete
abutment Of the dam would stand,
and no damage will be done to the
main dam but the washing away of
the hill on the south side will entail
a big loss to the government as a
retaining wall of concrete will most
likely be put in there.

MORE GOOD PREMIUMS

Two premiums offered at the Valley
County Fair that will be hotly contest
ed are offered in the livestock divi-
sion. The Glasgow Democrat will
award fifteen dollars in cash as a
sweepstake premium to the farmer ex-
hibiting the best registered boar, any
breed or age.
There are many herds of high class
registered swine in Valley County, as
the farmers are growing pork for the
market and everyone is doing his best
to develop the very highest strain of
purity to secure the best returns.
The big cash prize will surely bring
out big entry list and promises j

The Golden Rule Store has offered
an elegant leather suit case as prize
to 60 to the best trio coop of poul-

previous fair.

Harry K. Thaw's case was carried
to the court Of appeals by the attor.
ney general In an effort to prevent a
trial of the sanity issue before Jury.
The attorney general maintained that
there was no warrant In law for the de-
cision OF Justice Hendrick In the su.
preme court of this country to impanel
jury when Thaw endeavors to prove
that he is now mentally sound and en-
titled to his liberty.
This latest phase of the very much
legally complicated Thaw case dates from
Thaw's acquittal by the jury before JUS
tice Page In the criminal branch of the
supreme court OF the charge that he con.
spired with four other persons to es-
cape from Matteawan In 1913. Thaw
and his code-defendants were found not
guilty of that misdemeanor on March
IL last.
An application was made immediately
to Justice Page to order the return OF
Thaw to New Hampshire, from which
! state he had been extradited after a
fight that went all the way to the Unit
ed States supreme court. Thaw's coup.
sci, John B. Stanchfeld argued that
Thaw had been brought to New York
on a subterfuge for the Interior pur-
pose OF reincarcerating Thaw in Mattea-
wan. The motion was denied and instead
of returning to New England Thaw
walked over the Bridge OF Signs into
the Tombs once more.
An appeal from Justice Pages decision
on this point was taken to the appellate
division of the supreme court, but failed.
Meanwhile writ of habea corpus was
issued out on the ground that Thaw's
detention was illegal. Attached TO the
application for the writ were filed afii.
davits from sanity experts testifying TO
Thaw's soundness OF mind. There was
also an elaborate legal brief setting forth
that Thaw should be released from Gus
tody. And the commitment signed BY
Justice Bowling by which Thaw was
originally sent to Matteawan was at
tached as invalid. :.
Under the law the writ OF habeas
corpus had to be granted. The obtain
ing of that advantage was quickly fol- |
lowed with an application TO Justice
Hendrick to give Thaw a trial by jury.
In the three preceding habeas corpus
hearings to establish Thaw's sanity the
issue was decided by a supreme court
justice without the aid Of jury.
Justice Hendrick agreed 10 impanel
a jury 10 act in an advisory capacity
to help him determine whether Thaw
is now mentally sound and At 10 be at
liberty.
The attorney-general appealed from
Justice Hendricks decision to the APP
pellate division Of the supreme court,
which sustained the lower court. There.
upon the attorney-general carried the
appeal to the court of appeals,
Meanwhile Thaw was transferred from
he Tombs TO the Ludlow street jail on
he accommodation OF his physician,
who declared that Thaw's health was be.
ng impaired by confinement in the city
lrison.
