JOHN DIETZ
PARDONED
Defender of Cameron Dam
Given Liberty.

Most of the people around here
have uodoubt read or heard of John
Dletz who was convicted three
yearsago for murder and sentenced
to life imprisonment. Since that
time his family have been working
diligently to secure his release,
thousands of people all over the
world signed a petition and on
Christmas day Mr.. Dietz was grant
ed pardon by the governor af Wis
consin. Following is an article
taken from Chicago weekly in
their issue of the Goth.
The State of Wisconsin, through
it's governor, presented John Dietz,
the outlaw of Cameron Dam, ;"
with his freedom for a Christmas
present. The action was the result
of a monster petition signed by
thousands of people throughout
the state. Dietz was convicted
three years ago for the murder of
Deputy Sheriff Oscar Harp and
sentenced to life Imprisonment.
Dietz gained his title of outlaw
of Cameron DAM when he de.
Tended his log cabin on Thornapple
River, Wis, against a posse of
deputy sheriffs sent to arrest him.
The dam, he alleged, was the pro-
perty of Mrs. Dietz by virtue of a
deed of the forty acres of land sur
rounding it. When the Mississippi
River Logging Company attempted
to assume control of the dam, Dietz
who was a dead shot, took up his
rifle in its defense, and also armed
his family, consisting of his wife,
two sons and two daughters
He was finally captured, after
the log house was ridoled with
, bullets, and charged with the muir
| der of Deputy Sheriff Harp. AT
his trial, Dietz acted as his own
! lawyer and made all impassioned
plea to the jury.

Three Are Added.
Between the hen and the consumer
there is waste of $2OO,OOO,OOO of eggs
each year.
This was the testimony given at the
attorne? generals egg trust inquiry
in New York by William Mann of the
law department of the New York Cen
trail railroad, who read a letter from
the department Of agriculture to sup
port his claim.
According to these figures the Amer
can egg crop is worth S7OO,OOO,cOO a
year, and $5O,OO0,OOO is lost through
breakage in transit.

GIVE THE BOY A CHANCE.

The world S record for corn rails
ing belongs to Walter l.. Deenson,
an Alabama boy, yet in his early
teens Last year this boy raised
252 bushels of corn OH a single acre
of land, which is the largest yield
per acre ever recorded. This re-
markable Record was made by an
ordinary boy and on ordinary land.
He became interested i'll corn rails
ing and studied into the matter of
the kind and proper use of fertlllz
ers and proper cultivation. AS a
result of putting his knowledge to
practical use, he has raised 2S2
bushels of corn OH one acre of land,
thereby winning the championship
of the world. What Walter l..
Deenson has done serves to show
what common everyday, out-and-
out boy can do if he is given the
chance. There are thousands of
ambitious boys OH the rich farms of
this state who never know what it
is to be encouraged to take an in
terest in agriculture or stock rails
ing. If these boys were given a
small plot of ground and some seed
corn for example-to plant and
cultivate, a circus would not be
able to turn his thoughts very far
away from the enchanted spot"
wherea wonderful harvest will be
theirs to reap. A boy may not be
able to raise 232 bushels of COIN on
an acre of his father S land, but h e
can do we'll enough to make his ef-
forts worth while. What boy in
this country is going after the
world S championship record next?

DOUBLE MURDER
AT GEDDES
Rejected Lover Kills Sweat
heart and Self.

Gedaes -GedGeS, the scene of
the Menzie Signal murder, has
produced another double tragedy.
Gust Nelson. aged 26 years, a
carpenter killed himself and
and Mary Breidenbach, aged %
years, domestic, because she
had refused to marry him.
Nelson called on the Breiden
bach girl at the home of Joe Eli
ers, where she was employed,
and being rejected in his suit,
pressed a revolver to the girls
heart and fired twice. Mrs. Eli
ers and neighbor were in the
front room of the dwelling. Hear
ing the shot both fled screaming.
Ne. son ran from the house to-
ward rig waiting in the road,
but encountered Joe Eilers, who
was coming in answer TO his
wife's screams. Nelson shot
himself through the forehead
and lived only ten minutes. He
did not regain consciousness.
The Breidenbach girl was once
Nelson's sweetheart. but cut him
because he was drinking, Sic
told friends.
News of the murder reached
the county seat town, Wheeler,
where Robert Brooks was on
trial for the Menzie Signal MUIR
der, by telephone. 1t had the
effect of emptying the court room
almost instantly. Word that
murder had been committed
started many conjectures. The
bitter feeling aroused by the
prosecution of Brooks has given
rise to many threats against
partisans in the situation and
scantiness of the information
caused many guesses as to the
identity of probable victim.
The true situation was related
to Sheriff Lew Rifle over the
phone and accompanied by news
paper men he hastened to Gedd-
es by auto, 1t was decided the
cause of the deaths was too ap-
parent to require an iDvestiga-
tion.
