Both Plead Guilty.

. Walter j: Smith, ex-state treasurer,
plead guilty to second degree grand
larceny before Judge Dickson Of St..
Paul, Tuesday, and was given an in
determinate sentence from one to
five years-in the penitentiary at
Saltwater.
R. c. Pickit, former investment
clerk in the state auditors office,
plead guilty to forgery in the second
degree, and was also given an indie
terminate sentence Of from one to five
years in the Saltwater prison.
Pickit and Smith misappropriated
$4,000 of state school funds by means
OF forged Aitkin county school war
rants. Their friends made good the
loss to the state, but restitution did
not relieve them from criminal pros
ecution. .'@

Horse Plunges Into a Pit.

Yesterday morning at about 1:2O
o'clock while John Gilman was re-
turning from drive to Wyanett for
kallher & King, one Of the horses he
was driving plunged into a pit seven
feet deep in the street near the Riv-
erside Garage, and it is doubtful if the
animal will ever recover. Help was
summoned, block and tackle secured,
and afte1 several hours of labor the
animal was in a position to be hauled
out by another team.
The water pipe connecting the gar
age with the city main is frozen, and
three pits were dug to enable same to
be .thawed out. The work was being
done under the supervision Of Louis
Wicen and Electrician John Bolstad.
A red light was placed at each of the
three pits Tuesday evening, as warn
ing to the public, but we are inform
ed that the light stationed at the CEN
ter pit became extinguished during the
night, and this is the pit that the
horse plunged into.
This is a regrettable accident, as
the horse was one of Kaliher & Kings
best. Yesterday the animal was in a
sling all day, being unable to stand.
The three pits were reflled yester-
day morning, but the pipe is still
frozen. .@. ..--.@ --s

Reduction in Light Rates.

Users of electricity will be gratifed
at the reduction of rates from 121h
to 10 cents per kilowat, which will go
into effect this month. The new rate
is as low and lower than most of the
villages and smaller cities Of the
state. There may be a few instances
when water power is used where rates
are lower.
The reduced rate is the result Of
the strict enforcement of business
methods by the Water, Light & Build
ing Commission. All users of elec-
tricity are obliged to pay their bills
monthly; failure to pay means a dis
continuance of the service. This is as
it should be. In days gone by the
village lost hundreds Of dollars annu-
ally through laxity on the part of the
council.
1t stands to reason that if some
users of electricity and water fail to
pay for the same the delinquency
must be made good by increasing the
rates to those who do pay, or the tax
payers generally must foot the bills.
Is there any justice in requiring the
taxpayers or the honest users of cleo
tricity and water to pay other peo-
PIES obligations? That is what it
amounts to.
1t is the duty Of the Water, Light
& Building Commission to adopt and
enforce such rules and regulations as
will protect the interests of the vii
lage and furnish light and water to
customers at as low rates as possible.
This can only be done by requiring all
consumers Of light and water to pay
for what they get, and no favoritism
must be shown to anyone. This we
believe is what the commission is do
ing and will continue to do.

Michael Seaman.

Michael Seaman, respected pio-
neer of Spencer Brook, Isanti county,
departed this life Monday evening at
the advanced age Of 80 years. Mr..
Seaman had been feeble for some time,
and old age was the cause of death.
Funeral services were conducted
from the Christian church yesterday
afternoon. Rev. Osgood officiated, and
a quartet composed of Mesdames Well
ington King and Chas. Thompson and
Messrs. Guy Ewing and Nathan Pet
erson sang several appropriate selec-
lions, being accompanied on the organ
by Mrs. Ewing. Interment was in
Kings cemetery.
Michael Seaman was born in County
Limerick, Ireland, in the year of 1922,
and came to the United States at the
age Of "a years. He was married to
Miss Nora Carroll at Manchester, N.
H., on Feb. %, 1852, and eight child
rem were born of this union, four of
whom died in early childhood. Mrs.
Seaman departed this life eight years
ago.
In the year Of 1857 Mr.. and Mrs.
Seaman came to Minnesota, travelling
by rail to Dubuque, Iowa, and going
from there to Minneapolis (then known
as st. Anthony by boat. They resid-
ed there until the following yeat,
when, accompanied by Judge Spencer
and a few other early pioneers they
came to Spencer Brook, Isanti county,
locating on the homestead where they
since lived. Their first home was the
usual pioneers log cabin.
During the last year Of the Civil
! war Mr.. Seaman and other Of his
neighbors answered the call of their
country, although this necessitated the
leaving Of their families to hardships
we of today know nothing of.
During the early years Of his resi-
dence in Spencer Brook Mr.. Seaman
endured the privations invariably en-
countered by the pioneer. The near
est supply station was St. Anthony,
and the only mode of travel were bv
OK team or walking-the latter he
often resorted to, carrying what pro-
visions he could on his back.
Deceased is survived by three daugh-
tiers and one son, viz: Mrs. Katherine
Hewson, Berkeley, California; Mrs.
j. w. Hartman and Mrs. Nora Mich
OILS of Princeton, and M. C. Seaman Of
Spencer Brook. He made his home
with the latter at the old homestead.
Six grandchildren, and one great
grandchild also survive.
Michael Seaman was typical good
natured, whole-souled Irishman, and
exceptionally bright and witty. His
friends included all within the scope
of his acquaintance.

Court Notes.

,, The calendar was cleaned up at
this term with the exception Of two
cases, which were continued.
Clerk of Court King and his efficient
deputy, Miss Hansmeyer, were kept
busy throughout the session, but ever
found time to be obliging and cour-
teous.
Twelve talesmen were used at this
term aside from the regular jury
panel, and County Auditor Doane
drew SO warrants in paying off petit
jurors.
Attorney E. L. Mcmillan handled
his two cases in mastery manner,
and secured favorable verdicts in each
instance. He has few equals as an at
torney.
Judge Parsons kept the wheels of
justice constantly revolving and, while
undue haste was not noticeable, the
work did not drag. He made very
favorable impression.
Attorney w. H. Stewart appeared
in court with a smile Tuesday morn
ing, as his father-in-law, Mr.. D. H.
Freeman, was elected Mayor of St.
Cloud the previous day.
Hans Petrin swears that he has
the most expensive COW in Mile Laos
county. He estimates that it cost him
from $3.50 to $500 to establish
his ownership of the animal.
Numerous lake people were in at
tendance at court the first of the week,
most Of them being here as witnesses
in either the Petrin-von Groensven
case or the criminal actions against
| Swedberg and Petrin.
County Attorney Myron was rather
disappointed at the outcome of the
Swedberg case, but took a philosoph-
ical view Of the matter. Mr.. Myron
worked hard, and did his part toward
facilitating procedures.
Sheriff Harry Shockley and his
efficient deputies, Henry L. Shockley,
N. P. Olson and Chas. King, attended
to their duties in commendable man
ner. Mr.. Olson has served as court
deputy for years, and has become a
fixture.
L. G. Brown, who entered a plea of
"guilty" to charge of forgery in the
second degree last week, and was sen.
fenced to serve an indeterminate term
in the prison at Saltwater, was taken
to that institution Monday morning
by Sheriff Harry Shockley to COM
mence serving sentence.

$128.35, and considering the inclem-
ent weather the attendance was more
than gratifying to those who partici-
pated.
The expenses were rather high, al
though Director Chambers donated his
services, but enough remained to paw
for banquet, which was held at the
tredrlcks restaurant on Tuesday ev-
enlng. A sumptuous repast was par
taken of, and jolly good time had.
VIM. Davis acted as POSTMASTER and
the following responded appropriate
ly: K. j. Watson, John Schmidt, R..
2. Chambers and Robert Berg. Doro-
thy Hayes gave reading, and mu-
steal program was also carried out.
The High School orchestra favored
those present with several selections,
and Miss Grace Gibson sang pleasing
ly. A piano solo by Miss Scheen and
vocal solo by Mr.. Chambers found
favor with those present, and the
4suoCJ 11d1c 0udIC0C COnCrlO-
uted a song to the program and re-
sponded to hearty encore. Vocal
solos by Nathan Peterson and Bert
Mark were also roundly applauded.
Miss Scheen presided at the piano
for all the musical numbers, including
those of the orchestra, in the absence
Of Miss Svarry, who is the regular
accompanist. Dorothy Hayes, the lit
tie Miss who participated in the Min
strel show, being the only girl who
took part, was presented with a gold
band ring.
The banquet broke up at 1890
o'clock and those present pronounced
it the best ever.
The minstrel show may be put on
out OF town in the near future, and
plans to that effect are now being dis
cussed.

ejectment case involving a barn in


Milaca.
In the case of Herbert w. Allen and
Adolph o. Eliason VS.. Joseph Craig,
there was no no appearance on the
part Of the defendant, and judgment
was ordered for plaintiffs. This was
a suit to recover on a note.
The case Of R. L. Cramb, doing bus
mess under the firm name of Milaca
Hardware Co., VS.. Peter Solder and
Sophia Solder, was continued by con-
sent. This action is an appeal from
justice court and involves claim for
merchandise and labor filed by the
plaintiff, and counter claim filed by
the defendants.
The last case to be tried was that
Of the state of Minnesota VS.. R. S.
Swedberg, indicted for petit larceny.
A jury was drawn and just as the
first witness was being called, Attor-
ney w. H. Stewart, for the defendant,
moved that the case be dismissed on
the ground that the facts stated in
the indictment did not constitute a
public offense. County Attorney N.Y.
ron opposed the motion, but Judge
Parsons, after listening to the argu-
ments, granted same, although he an
nounced that he would prefer to have
the action tried if that was possible.
Swedberg was accused Of stealing a
deer, the complaining witness being
D. G. Wilkes, and the fact that wild
game is different from other classes
of property in the eyes of the law,
complicated matters somewhat. The
case against Hans Petrin, charged
with a like offense, was continued and
will probably be dismissed also.

Preparing for Anniversary

erclses on Wednesday evening, April
26. The Rebekahs will assist in the
observance, and the program is now

Probably Unconstitutional.

Chapter 1913 session laws of 1915
extended the terms of several of the
clerks of court of the state two years
in other words the terms of clerks of
court that would expire on the first
Monday Of January, 1917, were made
to expire on the first Monday of JAN
uary, 1919, thus giving the clerks
affected virtually six-year term.
Sec. 13, article VI, Of the state con-
stitution reads as follows: "There
shall be elected in each county where
a district court shall be held, one
clerk Of said court, whose qualifca-
tbs and feampensation shall
be prescribed by law, and whose term
of office shall be four years." =.
Chapter 1913 Of the session laws of
1915 is clearly in conflict with the
section of the constitution above
quoted.
The clerk Of the district court of
Wright county is one of the clerks
whose term would be heightened to
six years. John Abel of that county
has secured a writ of mandamus re-
quiring the auditor Of that county to
accept his filing as a candidate for
clerk Of court of that county. There
can hardly be question but what
the courts will hold that chapter 1853
is unconstitutional, and that all clerks
of court whose four-year terms ex-
pire on the first Monday Of January
1917, must go before the voters this
year.
The terms of judges of probate and
clerks Of court are fixed by the con-
stitution and cannot be extended by
the legislature.
The terms of other county officers
will not be affected by the decision of
the courts, whatever it may be.
The decision Of the question raised
by Mr.. Abel is of local interest as the
clerk Of court of Mile Laos county is
one of those whose term would be ex-
tended two years if the constitution
atty of chapter 1853 is affirmed.

Germany is angry with Hol-
land for accusing her of tor
pedoing Dutch liners, who is
undoubtedly responsible for
these outrages and wanton
murders. The German gov
eminent alone of all the world
civilized and barbarous is low
enough II the moral scale to
authorize this Wholesale MUIR
der and carnage. No other
government is sunk SO low to
do it. Holland is right in
looking for Germany as being
the murderers OF their Dutch
subjects on her liners, as they
alone are responsible for these
outrages on ncn- mbatants
and neutrals upon the high
seas.
