DISTRICT COURT NEWS

Another continued session of the
District Court was held last Monday,
Judge j. B. Rockafellow presiding.
Most of the day was taken up in the
hearing of State of Iowa VS.. Walter

TOO LARGE TO GRASP

Everything Connected with the war
is on a grand scale. The loss of life
is appalling, or would be were the
people not dazed with its magnitude.
1t is fact that 100000 casualties
in battle furnish a headline for a
day, and are straightway forgotten.
The cost in grief, in property de-
stroyed, and money poured into the
sea are alike trer.endous, unthink-
able.
So it is with our $1,000, 900, 900
bond issue authorized by congress.
1t is on a grand scale. Let US look
at that issue a moment and compare
it. 1t is 140 times the amount of
money placed at the disposal of Pres
ident Mckinley at the beginning of
the Spanish-American war in 1898,
and does not take into consideration
the contingent fund of 100, 100000
voted by congress to be placed to
the account of President Wilson for
eventual war purposes. The bond
issue is more than seven times the
amount of the bonded Indebtedness
/ of the United States at the present
time. II is three times the amount
of the bonded obligations of the
| United States when the country
emerged from the four years of civil
war. 1t is nearly five times the
| amount of the total appropriated fol
all government affairs for the cur
rent fiscal year and seven times the
amount of the average annual APP
preparations in the last decade. The
| interest on the bonds will amoun
to $245,000,000 annually. And al
this is a start, but a start. Here
after we shall think of billions o
dollars as we formerly thought o
millions.
And yet the country regards tn
money most calmly. If human lif
is worth spending in the defense o
ideals. humanitarian ideals, mer
money is a matter of little moment
Having entered the war, the Unite'
States is in il to win as our natiol
always has won. We have deliber
ately resolved to build the temple o
liberty. We have counted the cos
and we know that we are able t
finish it. Washington and Lincol
laid the foundation, We put on tn
capstones.

F. o. NIKLAsoN INJURED

Frank Niklason who went to North
Dakota last Sunday to ship car load
of mules to Audubon, arrived in the
city this morning. He met with the
misfortune Monday evening of break
ing bone in the ankle of his left
foot while examining mules in the
stock yards at Coggsville, s. d. Mr..
Niklason was examining the mules
teeth and had inspected all of them
but the last one. He was standing
on gate in the stock yards, and
while looking at the teeth of the last
mule, the kritter knocked Mr.. Mix
Jason over backward. In trying to
protect himself he jumped to the
ground. but landed in such a manner
as to fracture small bone in the
left ankle. He was unable to walk
and he was compelled to drive a dis.
lance of 20 miles to a hospital al
Oaks, n. D., before he could get re
lief.
Here the fracture was reduced ant
he was made as comfortable as pos
sible, but nevertheless he suffered {
great deal of pain. His friends who
met him at the Northwestern depo
this morning were surprised to Sc,
! him get off the train on crutches, ant
were unable to understand what haC
happened until he made a satisfac
tory explanation. All regret tina
he met with the accident but hop,
that he will soon be able to get abou
| as usual.
Frank says he is unable to under
stand just why the accident happened
for he swears there wasn't whit
mule" in the entire herd.
