Besides the place of holding the

INDIANOLA GIRL BETRAYED

Unless the police department of
Des Moines takes immediate steps
to arrest the man that deceived Rena
Hill, the 19-year-old Indianola girl,
by fake marriage ceremony, the
girls father, G. n. Hill, will assign
private detectives on the case.
The Indianola man so notified Pol
ice-woman Ethyl Fischer by tele-
phone. Chief Crawford has instruct
ed the department to apprehend Bert
lie Johnson, accused by the girl as the
guilty party.
1t was learned that Johnson" is a
moving picture machine operator and
has been employed in Des Moines
for several years. The police have
been given the clews to his wherea-
bouts.
Hill informed the police that he
would be in Des Moines personally
to direct the search for the man that
betrayed his daughter. He told the
police that he had discovered other
things" since leaving Des Moines with
his daughter Saturday.
Miss Hill was met by a stranger at
the Rock Island depot accepted IL
proposal to marry, participated in a
fake ceremony, was robbed and de
serted by the man she thought to be

offered him a money consideration
for his labor far below its actual
worth. This Mr.. DietZ refused.
The ThOrnapple river runs thru
the 80 acre tract and the Cameron
dam was built on this land. Mr..
DietZ then refused to allow the COM
pany to close the dam so as to get
head of water in which to float their
logs. Then began a battle between
the settler and the company. A son
and a daughter were waylaid and
shot. There was a pitched battle
between the deputies and the man
who was defending his home and
family. More than 1000 bullets
were fired into this little cabin. The
dams above the Cameron were
blown up and when the avalanche of
water and logs came down upon the
Cameron it swept everything before
it. To save the lives of his family
Mr.. DietZ gave himself up. During
the fight a deputy was shot. AL
though it could not be proven that a
bullet from Mr.. DietZ's gun did the
deed, yet he was convicted on cir
cumstantial evidence and sentenced
to life Imprisonment. Every effort
is being put forth to get Governor
Phillips to pardon Mr.. DietZ. He has
been presented with a petition con-
tanning SIS 900 names of the voters
of Wisconsin.

MANY COMPLIMENTS FOR
GEORGE COSSON

Every week this Office receives
newspapers published through out
the state containing articles com
plimentary to Geo. COsson, of this
city, concerning his candidacy for
governor of the state of Iowa in the
1916 campaign. We would like TO
reprint each and everyone of them so
that the folks at home might get
some idea of the esteem in which he
is held in all parts of the state. The
following clipping from the Colfax
Tribune, a newspaper at one time
edited by the publisher of this paper,
has the following to say regarding
Mr. Cosson:
George Cosson is being presented
as suitable candidate for the nomin-
alton of governor on the republican
ticket. He is one of the best known
men in the state today, for he has in
deed made the Office of attorney gen
eral known to everyone and has made
it an Office of Importance. He is
man who does things without count
ing what people may think. He does
what he considers he should do as Ia
servant of the people. The people
in general honor him for it. He is a
particularly competent and efficient
man in the attorney generals office
and if he is called TO the position of
governor of Iowa he will make that
Office just as strong. There are some
who believe he should be retained as
attorney, but his closest friends think
he is entitled to the promotion. His
scores of friends in this city and
community would be pleased to fur
Their his candidacy and they will have
no hesitancy in doing So They know
the man and know his exceptional
ability and steadfastness."

VICTIM OF MOE

Leo Frank is as truly a victim of
The Georgia mob that bounded him
rs he would have been had he fallen
ntO it's hands and sustained the in
iuries inflicted upon him by a fell
low prisoner in the state peniten
tiary.
His assailant was inhamed to ac-
ion by the spirit which actuated the
mob. 1t is natural that the murder
lust OF a mob should affect a muir
lerer and stir him to an attempted
repetition of the crime which made
him Franks neighbor.
Ex-Governor Slaton was wise to
leave Georgia for a trip to the Pacific
coast Immediately after retiring from
Office Although he has attempted
20 defend the good name Of his state,
he knows in his heart that the same
fate might be meted out to him that
has befalleu the man whom he saved
from the gallows. Georgia needs to
do penance in sackcloth and ashes.

WILL SHOW THE
CAMERON DAM TRAGEDY
Gem Theatre TO Show Pictures of
Famous Defender of Cameron
Dam in 1910

John DietZ a son of the defender
of Cameron Dam, was in the city last
week and made arrangements with
Carl Hoover, manager of the Gem
Theatre to show the pictures. The
son is seeking pardon for his father
who is serving time in the WisCOn-
sin penitentiary, and the money Sc
cured from the rights of the pictures
will be used in that direction. The
date set is Saturday, August 9TH. The
people of the country who followed
the story at the time of the trial are
firmly of the opinion that Dietz is a
wronged man. The story of DietZ
and the Cameron affair is something
like the following:
John f. Dietz was in the employ of
the Chippewa Lumber Co. from 1901
to 1904. He was to receive as pay
for his labor so acres of cut over land
at $3.50 per acre. In the meantime
a railroad had been built through
that section of the country and the
land value had risen to $40 per acre.
The company then repudiated
their agreement with Mr.. Dietz and

Social Service Department By MRS. SIDNEY n. LILLIAN

A most elaborate programme has been arranged, with unique ideas of what can be done in advertising, sport and beauti- full dancing. Many merchants and manu- lecturers have donated goods and contrib uted money toward some sort of represen- tation in a parade which will be the open ing feature of the playground exercises.
 Those firms tfat can be represented in costume will have the idea carried out by the little girls and boys. This parade will pass up and down the streets in the neighborhood, then back to the park and the real entertainment will begin.
 A large pageant will form and the diff ferent numbers will take place at the park entrance. The pageant Is a rather pot pourri idea, but in a manner brings out the spirit of history and domestic life of our country.
 A tableaux of the landing of the Pll- grims, in costume, will be followed by 8 picture of John Alden and Priscilla; then Everywcman and her followers will come; next there will be wind and say agery dance and tabeau. Then an Indian appears praying for peace, and as he kneels the wind girls appear, scattering leaves. They pass on to allow a solo dance of autumn to come forward, and this is followed by a chorus of other winds.
 Then the domestic side of life has a share The spirit of the kitchen is here. Riddles with caps and aprons dance around a large pot and are elfin cooks. Mother Goose brings forward her family always delight to the little people; then some new folk dances, rather some that

 particularly attractive one is the Nor
 wegian mountain dance, and last the suf-
 frage parade and tableau, which makes
 the whole programme very up-to-date and
 fine.

 The easiest way to awaken interest in
 a venture is if possible to make the
 children a part of it. And this is doubly
 true of a neighborhood; 1t is the little ones pleasures that solicit the big ones

JUDICIAL SYSTEM NOT JEOPARDIZED
 BY VETO OF THE
 RECIRCUITING. BILL
Governor Henderson Makes Statement in Regard to -BlackwOod
 to Hold Court in Jefferson County as First Shift Under the New Law

Montgomery, October 29.--(Special.) That lawyers throughout the state now realize that the states judicial system was not jeopardized by the veto of the recircuiting bill is the opinion of Governor Henderson. The governor declared this afternoon that all com plaints against his action in vetoing the bill have ceased.
 According to the governor, he spent nearly two weeks in consideration of the recircuiting bill and his action was decided upon after mature and thoughtful deliberation.
 Since he vetoed the bill many law yers of the state, including a large number of legislators. have examined the measure and as result of their investigation there are no further pro- tests. It is now believed that there is adequate machinery provided for the proper administration of the law in all counties.
 The first shift in judges made un- der the new law was when Chief Jus tice Anderson last week requested Judge J. E. Blackwood of the Seventh circuit to hold court in the Tenth cir cult. which includes Jefferson county

Since the recreation department of the city had to be abandoned, most of the playgrounds have had no supervision, so when we do find a community that has had enough civic pride and energy to keep up the work, we are both delighted and full of praise.
 Now that the autumn days are fast coming to close. and winter will soon be here, even these energetic superin- tendents and pleasant meeting places must give way to the chill hours of the winter days. Real winter sports are not possible in our climate, when the little kiddies have only one snowstorm a year and that one soon just slush.
 On the corner of Fifteenth streeet and Fourteenth avenue is little triangle For years it was a sore spot to the com munity Then the city beautiful idea began to grow and it planted itself deep down in the hearts of that community. From a dumping ground for the neighbor- hood this little park has been transformed so that no prettier place in Birmingham greets the eye. Flowers and shrubs are planted, the lovely trees are cared for and this park is a real monument to the founders of the city beautiful idea.
