GOVERNMENT WILL
 RECALL DIR. DUMBA
Vienna Will Recall Dr. Dumba,
 According to Assurances Re- ceived at WashingtOn.-U. s.
 Will not Accept Leave Absence

Washington, Sept. 27.-Dr. Con- stantin T. Dumba, Austrian ambas- sador to the United States, will be formally recalled by his government, according to assurances given Ameri- can Ambassador Penfield at the Vi enna office.
 MT. Penfield had been instructed to make clear informally that "leave of absence for Dr. Dumba would not satisfy the request of the United States in it's formal note asking for the recall of the ambassador.
 While discussing the situation with Austrian officials Mir. Penfield was advised that the wishes of the United States would be complied with. A note on the subject is being prepared and on it's receipt safe conduct home for Mir. Dumba will be arranged and the incident in so far as the United States is concerned, will be closed.
 Until formal notification of Dr. Dumba's recall state department of ficials will make no announcement.
 Charge d Affaires Barclay of the British embassy called on Acting Secretary Polk of the state depart ment today and later the secretary stated that the necessary action which would assure Dr. Dumba's un- molested passage would be arranged by wire in a few hours if Vienna of ficials acquiesence to his recall should arrive in time.

as to make it impossible for a non- expert to discover its presence by or dlnary observation. But we think that was all a matter for the jury to pass on, whether it was true that ap- pellant was mentally incapacitated to the extent which the testimony of the expert witnesses tended to show,with- out its being observable by non-expert witnesses who took careful note of ap pellant's actions and demeanor dur ing the progress of the trial. There are numerous opinions of this court which deal with the question of in- sanity and mental incapacity, but we find none of them which warrants us in saying that the testimony of the witnesses introduced by the state in this case was without substantial force, and that the judgement should be reversed as being without any evi- dence to support it."

ASCENT COTTON PRE-.
 DICTION OF J.F. BOYLE
Local Authority on Market Says Middling Will Reach Mark Which Will Result in Era of Business Prosperity.

That upland middling cotton may sell at Is cents per pound and even higher, is the belief of John F. Boyle, widely known Little Rock cotton man, who returned Saturday from Eastern markets.
 "l think that extremely high prices for cotton will prevail this season and for several years to come," said Mr Boyle. Several weeks ago I express ed the opinion that upland middling cotton would certainly sell at Is cents a pound in our market and now think Is cents or even higher quite proba- ble. My views are based not only on the short crop being gathered in the South but because of the enormous demand for dry goods and other pro- ducts of cotton.
 "I believe there will be an era of great general business expansion, and look for rapidly rising security mar kets to be followed by renewed activ- ity in city real estate and farm lands"
 The Little Rock cotton market today was from 25 to 30 points higher than the Saturday market, being steady with middling at II cents. Cotton has been selling from $15 to $17 per bale more this season than last year, and the total receipes have been :, 3,432 bales as compared with 2,466 bales last year.

SUPREME COURT GRANTS
 M'KINLEY ANOTHER TRIAL

Little Rock, Sept. 28.-The Supreme Court has decided that there must be another trial of the case of E. l. Me Kinley, Deputy Commissioner of La bor, who was indicted in Greene coun- ty on a charge of election fraud. The case went off in the lower court on demurrer, and the appellate court holds that the lower court erred in sustaining the demurrer.
 The case has never been heard on its merits. Mckinley was one of nine election judges who were indicted on charges of election frauds in connec- ton with the last municipal election at Paragould. Indictments were also re- turned against 132 voters for alleged illegal voting, but many of these have since produced polltaX receipts, show ing that their votes were not illegal.
 In the precinct of which Mckinley was judge there were 325 voters. Me Kinley says the judges were not fur nished with printed lists of the qua lified voters, but they questioned every one if there was any doubt adout his eligibility. In the indictments it was alleged that there were 2S illegal vot- es cast in the ward, but of these four ten later produced receipts. These discrepancies occurred in each of the three wards of the citV

Fakirs and the Farmer.

The blue sky vendor, the fellow

bogus stock food, peddlers of cheap
groceries, cloth solicitors, and pedd-
lers, agents, canvassers and solicit

sustains Fractured Skull.

Monday afternoon an accident
which proved nearly fatal occurred
between DEBORAH and Calmar. Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. Deyo, of West Union,
were on their way from Calmar to
DEBORAH and were operating a motor
cycle and side car attachment. A dan
gerous looking storm was coming up
and they evidently tried to beat the
storm into DEBORAH, and were pre-
sumably going at a fast pace, when
the front aXel came loose and let
the wheel down. Mr. Deyo was thrown
20 feet from the machine and Mrs
Deyo was caught under it. She sus-
tanned fractured skull and three
broken ribs. Mr.. Deyo was badly
shaken up, but not seriously hurt. Dr.
Kessel, of Cresco, started out from
Calmar about five minutes after Mr..
and Mrs. Deyo, on his way to Decor
ah. He rendered medical aid to them
and took them back to Calmar, as
they were only a short ways out
from the town. A nurse accompanied
DR.. Kessel and they rendered most
valuable surgical aid to the injured
persons. Mrs. Deyo was in very
critical condition.

FAMOUS AVIATOR COMING.
VIII Appear at Winneshiek County
County Fair i'm August.

The managers of the Winneshiek
county fair are hard at work getting
things lined up for the big fair at
DEBORAH in August. They are book
ing attractions as fast as they can
but are only taking the best.
Frank Champion, the famous avia-
tor, who will appear at the Winnie
shiek fair, says that aviation as a
science, is only in its infancy. My
whole aim is to improve it and make
it useful. l hardly think there will
be time soon, when they will be Of
commercial value, but / do think
they will be useful before long.
mean that men of big affairs will own
them, and when business matters are
pressing will get them out, and rush
them to nearby cities on urgent bust
ness. We are aiming to get down to
baraic principles in aviation, so that
we can say that two and two make
four with some certainty that it does
not equal four infinity to the zero
quantity.
During Champions recent visit to
San Jose, he had occasion to visit
Santa Clara College. This came after
the rest of the party of which Cham
pion was a member. 1t will be re-
membered that Champion was taken
in by the authorities for exceeding
the speed limit, in an automobile. He
might easily do this in the air, but it
is hardly possible on terra firma.
1t is not surprising that Ralph
Johnson left so small an estate,
Champion told an interviewer. An
aviator spends as much money as he
earns on experimenting on new ma
chimes designed to get the most rising
and propelling power with the least
possible power. The machine l am
now using represents an investment
of $4,000 and have two others.

Decorah's Oiled Streets.

The city of DEBORAH is enjoying
some excellent streets right now, es-
pecially all of the streets which
have been oiled, and that includes
all of the principal travelled streets
of the city. Four car loads of oil,
or $4,000 gallons, have been put on,
and there is still more to be put on.
If there are any blocks in the city
which have not been oiled and the
residents desire it, just notify the
mayor and the oiling will be done.
There is some talk of oiling the
state road down past the hospital as
far as Trout Run. If arrangements
for this is made, another car of oil
will be ordered at once. The oil has
been put on in fine shape. OF course
about the oil, as perhaps a speck or
two may have got tracked into
home, but in the majority of homes
there is great rejoicing because the
oil has been put on, and the residents
can take a little comfort on their
porches or in their yards, and not be
drowned out by dust The cost of
the oiling has been practically moth
ing, and it is doing world of good,
thanks to the city dads who helped
the good cause along SO materially.
Since the above was written some
of our business men went out with
petition yesterday to secure enough
funds to oil the road from the hos
pital to Trout Run. OF course this
insures the oiling of that road, which
will be great benefit to a large
number of people, as it is road that
is travelled, perhaps more than any
other road out Of the city.

GRAIN TRUST PAYS FOR EQUITY
SUIT.
Case of the State of North Dakota
Against Equity Cooperative
Exchange.

A short time ago we published an
article about case started by Atty.
Gen. Linde of North Dakota against
the Equity Cooperative Grain Ex-
change, charging fraudulent practi-
ces. Atty. Linde is former Winnie
shiek county man and naturally the
case has an interest here. We take
the following from a Minneapolis
paper of June %:
Fargo, N. D., June 25.-The back
bone of the states case in the suit of
the state of North Dakota against the
| Equity Cooperative exchange was
broken when Atty. Edward Engerud,
in charge of the case for the state,
was called to the witness stand by
the defense and admitted that the
state was not paying him for his SER
vices, but that he was paid by politi-
clans and friends of the Minneapolis
Chamber of Commerce.
Engerud said that among those
who contributed to his fund were
John H. Adams, editor of the Coop
erative Farmer and Manager, a pub
LEGATION known as the mouthpiece of
the Minneapolis Chamber Of Com
merce; Fred Smith, former manager
of the farmers elevator at Voltaire,
n. D., who began the first suit against
the Equity and who was ousted from
the elevator for so doing; j. +.
Greenfield, former Chamber of Com
merce commission agent; Rep. Tread
we'll Twichell, former speaker of the
house of repres entatives and leader
of the Hanna-McKenzie political or
ganization; r. S. Lewis, chairman
state board of control, which advised
the legislature last fall not to allow
the state of North Dakota to build a
terminal elevator at st. Paul, and
"others."
Just who the "others' were, Enge-
rud did not say.
These men, he said, had guaranteed
him funds, payment Of part of which
has already been made, to start the
action against the Equity Co-opera-
tive exchange and to get the attorney
general interested in the case.
Pres. J. M. Anderson of the Equi-
ty, in discussing the political aspect
of the suit said:
THE disclosures made throw a
new light on the political situation
in North Dakota. We now know who
the real opponents of the Equity
movement are. / believe that the
people will be more lenient in their
criticism of Atty. Gen. Linde, who
instituted these disreputable proceed
ings without investigating the Equi-
ty side of the case, now that they
know who the real parties supporting
Linde are.
"Mr. Twichell has played promi-
nent part in the official light of the
state and naturally holds the conf
dence of a large number of people.
Many, however, have become suspi-
cious of him since he assumed leader
ship of the faction of the state legis-
lature which last winter defeated the
bill providing for the erection Of a
state terminal elevator in st. Paul.
