Statement Of Facts.

EDITOR NEWS: = Believing that
a great injustice has been done
Robert Wilkinson by the stories
that have been circulated grow
ing out of his arrest last Satur-
day night, on charges of forgery,
counterfeiting and jumping a
board bill, we the undersigned
request that you publish the fol-
lowing statement embracing the
facts as we have found them to
be upon investigation.
Prior to February 14th of this
year, Mr.. Wilkinson was in the
employ of Edward j. Post, and
on that date took him to Green's
burg where Mr.. Post was attend
ing the Automobile show. Mr..
Wilkinson stopped at the Fisher
House, rendering as payment OF
his bill a check given him by Mr..
Post for $500 drawn on the
First National Bank of McCon-
nellsburg, this check Mr.. Wiki
inson indorsed over to the pro-
prietor of the Hotel who accept
ed the same. 1t turned out that
Mr.. Post had no funds in the
bank and the check went to pro-
test.
After being apprised that the
check had been protested, Mr..
Wilkinson notified the Fisher
House that he had arranged to
have the bill paid including the
telephone charges and the pro-
test fees, which amount was to
be paid by DR.. George W. Tea
garden of Chambersburg upon
receipt of sight draft for the
amount.
While awaiting the coming OF
the draft, which was agreed to
by the proprietor of the Fisher
House, a warrant from the Hotel
was issued on the charges above
mentioned, and sent to the po-
lice department of Chambers
burg.
Chief 'Klenzing came to Nc.
Connellsburg Saturday night, ar
rested Mr.. Wilkinson and took
him to Chambersburg where he
was released from custody on
his own promise to be there when
wanted.
On Tuesday of this week the
chief, after communicating with
Greensburg, informed Mr.. Wilk'
inson.that the payment of $46.4l
would end the matter. Upon the
advice of his father this amount
was paid and the charges drop
ped.
The circumstances of this case
show clearly a malicious intent
on the part of the prosecutor tt
extort money from a young mar
innocent of any intention Of
wrong doing, who had made ar
rangements that were accepted
by the hotel man to pay all of the
check and the costs of protest.
Mr.. Wilkinson is advised thai
he has a right of action agains'
the prosecutor for false impris
onment, and malicious prosecu
ton and is contemplating bring
ing action accordingly.

greatest convenience and comfort

this farmstead has been worked out
for North Dakota conditions.
Making Concrete.
Another article takes up the max
ing Of concrete. 1t takes up each
step from the cement to the finished
product. 1t also explains about the
sand and gravel and the preparation
that needs to be made as we'll as the
care that must be taken in order to
secure the proper curing. Cement is
used on so many farms nowadays
and can be used for SO many purpos-
es that an understanding OF it and
how TO handle it will prove both in
teresting and valuable.
One of the crops that is coming in
TO i good deal of prominence at the
prescn, is alfalfa so an article Is de-
voted to its production. Every phase
of alfalfa growing is taken up from
the preparation of the land to the
fina! curing of the hay. Seed produc-
ton is also taken up.
Some of the pests that are trouble
some in North Dakota are ground
squirrels, gophers and prairie dogs.
Tho article on this subject gives the
results of considerable experience in
the killing Of these animals. The
method that is advocated is very Ell
fective and quite inexpensive as the
squirrel can be killed for . TO cents
per acre.
On Marketing Hogs.
The article on marketing hogs will
prove interesting TO most farmers, as
it takes up how to feed the hogs in
the fall as we'll as each step in pre-
pairing them for market and for send
ing them to market. including a dis
cussion of The livestock market and
the way the hogs are handled on 1t
as we'll as cars for shipping them.
Corn is going to be one of the great
crops of the state and an article is de-
gives the facts relating to the value

Pressed Brick company Of Dickinson,
have organized the Dickinson Vitri-

at once upon the manufacture of hol-
low tile for silo construction, claimed
to be most durable and satisfactory
material for the construction Of silos.
In the. past concrete material has
been used for silo construction to a
great extent, but the hollow tile, spe-
cially manufactured for the purpose,
precludes freezing, besides, the new
material can be more cheaply sup
piled than the concrete. Local clay
beds furnish all the raw material
wanted for the manufacture of the
hollow tile blocks.

!lHughes ~hadn't the Nerve" to
Demand FiIibuster on the Law.
WILSON'S ACT COURAGEOUS.


Member of cleveIand's Cabinet Praises
Presidents Domestic Achievements
and His Policy to Keep Country Out
of War.
I No American can speak with higher
authority on the issues of this cam
paign than Richard Olney, who was
President Cleveland's attorney general
during the railroad strike Of 1894 and
President Cleveland's secretary Of
state when the Venezuelan message
was sent to the British government.
He should know whether President
Wilson's action in averting the rail-
road strike was surrender to force;'
whether the Wilson foreign policy has
been "timid and vacillating."
Mr.. Olney seeks no political prefer
ment; his interest is that OF retired
statesman, of wise, experienced, dis
passionate patriot, who is concerned
only with the welfare of his country.
Mr.. Olney has written for the New
York World a signed article in which
he warns the American people against
the danger sure to result from turning
over their affairs to Mr.. Hughes and
the interests which would dictate his
policies, foreign and domestic.
Where Was His Nerve?
Discussing the passage of the Adam
son eight hour law, Mr.. Olney points
out that the Republicans of the senate,
IL they had really wished more time
for the consideration of the bill, could
have obtained it by means Of fill
buster, recognized senatorial weapon,
and adds:
"Why did not the Republican sena-
tors resort to it and get all the time
for elaboration they wanted7 What
was Candidate Hughes doing that he
did not make tho wires hot with mes
sages to Washington-warnins against
the law the seventy-four Republican
representatives who voted for i it and
urging the twenty eight Republican
senator's to filibuster to tho last ditch I
But neither he nor the Republican
leaders generally had the nerve to face
the situation. With ample means In
their hands to prevent legislation until
after its due consideration, they delib-
erately elected that it should appear to
be enacted under coercion in order that
after the great national deliverance
had been effected they might object to
the mode Of its accomplishment
"A pettier and more ignobIe game Of
politics never was conceived. In com
parison and in view of the sudden and
extraordinary exigency sprung upon
the country President Wilson's course
was characterized by both courage and
common sense"
OF Candidate Hughes conduct in the
campaign Mr.. Olney remarks:
mo sooner was the nomination as
sured than the robes and ernneI Of

place the motley wear of the ordinary

says.gs"hasSke pt>its srhdder true and has
won and deserved the respect and
gratitude of the country"
The principles and objects Of the
Wilson foreign policy as stated by Mr..
Olney have been:
First-To keep the country out Of
the great European war.
Second-To insist upon the exist
ence and vitality of international
law as determining its own status
as a neutral, and defining its rights
and obligations as such.
Third-To deal with the Mexican
situation in spirit of perfect fair
ness and friendliness to the Next
can people, now suffering from CIV
IL dissensions and revolution to an
extent which leaves large part Of
the country in state Of anarchy.
Mr.. Olney shows that all these OBJ
tects have been attained through the
wise, patient and courageous diplo-
macy of Woodrow Wilson; that the
president has kept the country at
peace without dishonor; that under his
leadership 1.-THE United States has rem
dered an inestimable service to bellig-
erents and neutrals and to all man
kind" in steadily bearing aloft the
banner of international law as the
standard under which all civilized peo-
pies must eventually gather"
Mr.. Olney finds particular cause to
commend President Wilson's Mexican
policy. He stands with the president
in declaring that the Mexicans have
the right to work out their own des-
tiny even through revolution.
Closing by asking what is likely to
happen if the presidential tiller
passes into new hands. Mr.. Olney
says that Hughes inducement to
change the existing foreign policies OF
the country would be very great
1.-The American people can hardl!
fail to realize the danger and to re
(. fuse to put at risk the continuance OF
a foreign policy which. as whole

Before Charles Frohmans death on
the Lusitania, he had promised to assist
in presenting the play now called The
Heart OF Wetona"
For this reason both his name and
that of David BelascO appear on the
program. The author is George Scar
borough
The new play at the Lyceum Theater,
seen here for the first time, is melO-
dramatic in character, but rises far
above the vulgar type of thriller US
ually denoted by that word. It presents
a series OF tense situations which de-
pict the strange clash of character and
customs in the wilder parts of the
west.
The scenes are laid on an Indian re-
servation i'm Oklahoma. and part of the
strength Of the appeal is due to the
fact that for the greater part Of the
play the action takes place inside a
house known to be surrounded by
vengeful redskins.
Mr.. BelascO knows how 20 put the
west on the stage with all the intimate
details. The stage pictures show to
perfection the rough life The twelve
actors are perfectly adjusted to their
roles, again showing the magic Of Mr..
Belasco.

fective in the leading part, as an I'M

r sophisticated and spontaneous daughter
Of a Comanche chieftain and a white
mother. The story is built around the
test Of Wetona's finer motives and vir-
tues. Her character has remarkable
sympathetic interest and is made ap-
pealing seemingly by the simplest
means.
In the role OF the hate-inflamedl In
dian chief Courtleigh is wildly pictur-
esque. He has a rugged force which
shows his versatility. for he can be
gentle when necessary.
Lowell Sherman is a plausible vii
liam, properly mechanically hateful.
His foil is the Indian agent who comes
to Wetona's rescue This character is
played with great power by John Mil
tern.
When Wetona is chosen as a sort of
vestal virgin for the ceremonial dances
of her tribe. she confesses her sectet.
All the old passions for revenge are
aroused in the Indians. The chiefthin
suspects the Indian agent for he has
indeed loved the betrayed girl. But II
is a young engineer, the son of the post
chaplain. who is the guilty man.
The chieftain forces the mistrusted
agent to marry Wetona. Wetona thinks
she loves the engineer, but to protect
him from the chiefs vengeance. she
goes through the ceremony with the
agent, realizing that the tribe has tpo
great respect and fear Tor the govern
ment representative to harm him.
The test of Wetona's character COMBS
when Wells the engineer. returns to
tempt her again with false promises.
By this time the agent is sure OF the
girls fibre. The final scene, in the
darlSened room OF the agents house, Is
