200 WITNESSES
To TESTIFY IN
LAVETA CASES

Pueblo, Colo, Jan. Two hun
dred witnesses will be placed on the
stand iii the La Neta murder trial
In which eight strikers are charged
with the murder of party of mine
guards in liuerfano county year
ago last November. according to at
torneys on both sides today. Each
side has submitted the names of 100
witnesses already and more are be-
ing added ally.
The questioningg o: ;alesmen was
resumed Immediately on the opening
OF court today. There have been .ex-
cused and challenged so far 45 jurors
of ~ venire of 200 called.
An entirely different story of the
La Veta mine strike battle is to be
told during the course of the trial,
now in session in the Pueblo county
district court. In the examination
of talesmen for jury service yester-
day Horace n. Hawkins stated to one
man who said he had become preju-
diced against the strikers from the
reading of the newspaper stories of
papers have told only one side of the
story. and that emanated from the
state militia.
When interviewed later on this
subject, Attorney Hawkins admitted
that it was the intention of the de-
tense. for the first time. to produce
the story of the La Veta affair, as
it actually happened.
1T is an actual fact that not a
single newspaper has given the cor
rect version of the story declared
Attorney Hawkins after the days
session. Il would not approve of
the defense now presenting its story
OF the La Neta affair. Naturally.
the public would look upon it as a
method to gain public sentiment"
Certain newspapers were pro-
nounced in advocating the miners
side of the strike. why didn't they
tell the strikers version of the La
Veta battle?" was asked.
THAT is plain enough. For two
months these men were held as prfs-
oners IN the Walsenburg jail, incom-
municado. They were arrested i'm
mediately after the fight occurred.
There was no chance for the public
to hear their story of the fight.
Whatever story was obtained came
from the militia members
ASKED If there was any secrecy
about the general supposition that
the strikers will plead self defense,
Attorney Hawkins stated that one
was privileged to draw his own con
clusions from the questions. being
asked the veniremen. A conclusion
from this source could be nothing
else than that the eight men on trfa1
will contend that they shot to de-
fend their own lives. The prosecu.
tion. in the formation and in the
statement to the jury venire, charged
that Luke Terry. one of the foul
victims named in the case on trial
was "feloniously murdered" by the
eight defendants.

ably with that at Puebla. Marie will

The German military government
of Belgium denies officially the re-
port of the arrest at Brussels of Car
dinal Mercier OH account of pas
toral letter in which the cardinal
was said to have advised Belgians
not to recognize German authority
England's reply to Washington's
remonstrance against British inter-
ference with American shipping will
be altogether conciliatory, according
to London dispatches. which say
that apparently all danger of fric-
tion between the two nations has
disappeared. England is willing to
make all concessions which she
deems not in direct conflict with the
interests of the allies. although it is
Flanders and in Alsace, by intensity

The Germans meanwhile have
sought to repair the damage done to
their wings. This has resulted in the
recovery of some ground for them
near Steinbach. in Upper Alsace, but
their attacks in Flanders were re-

The reported detention of the Bel

City Steam Laundry
A. Markson, Prop.

Albert Markson has contributed an up-to-
date, modern steam laundry as his portion
towards making Sank Centre one of the liv-
est little cities in the Northwest. His BUSH
ness is known as the City Steam Laundry
and for equipment and excellence of work the
plant has no superior west of the Twin Cities.
Two years ago Mr.. Markson erected new
and modern building so as to not only take
care of the laundry needs of Sank Centre but
for large clientele in the surrounding ter
ritory. At the present time the City Steam
Laundry has agencies in and is doing laundry
work for 40 cities in North Dakota and Nor
"thern Minnesota. In addition to the laundry
the plant includes the only dry cleaning es-
Establishment in the city, and also frst-class
tailoring department.
The present City Steam Laundry. is an
other exemplification of the remarkable turn
toward modernity which Sank Centre has
taken in the last decade or more. Mr.. Mark
son came to Sank Centre in 1902. He pur-
chased from Lord & Son, little hand laun-
dry business in small frame building on
North Main street. 1t was at that time the
most pretentious laundry in the city. AS
sisted by one employee, Mr.. Markson went to
work. Year by year the business increased.

PRODUCES LIES NECESSITIES

On thing about Minnesota is that she pro-
duces in perfection the chief necessities of
life, and they are always in demand: Our wheat,
oats, barley corn, potatoes and other field pro-
ducts are of the best, also are our beef pork,
poultry, eggs, milk, and butter, and other
products all of the very first quality Until the
world gets tired of good wholesome vctuals Mime
sofa products will continue to be in prime demand.
Down east, down south and way out west they can
and do produce things in perfection but here
raise a great many in equal perfection. For in
stance, enjoy Delaware peaches, but we like them
better with our Minnesota cream We enjoy the Cal

today one of the leading citizens of the city
as we'll as one of the most substantial bus
mess men. Mr.. Hillerud does not relish the
lmelight of public life; he cares not for the
honors of public office but no Sank Centreite
is ever more ready or willing to get behind
and push any wheel which is started for the
good of Sank Centre. In this respect the gen.
tleman has been unselfish and modest to the
superlative degree. He has been repeatedly
urged to accept public office but not until

of equal and much larger size than Sank
Centre. There is not an article in the hard
ware line which cannot be found in the dis
play or store rooms. The establishment
would be credit to any city.
The guiding genius of this successful and
prosperous concern is Gunther Hillerud, the
founder, and who has been at the manager
ial helm since the doors were first opened
Three years ago Charles E. Bohall was ad-
mitted as partner and has since been active
also in the management sharing in the for

continuing the growth and prosperity of the
firm.
