.FALT MAY bE HUNG
 FOR HIS CRIME

That William Faltin, released from the Arizona state hospital for the in sane on Saturday upon certiication by Dr. John R. Wallis, superintendent of that institution, and returned to the Arizona state prison is still in the shadow of the gallows, was the opinion generally expressed yesterday by law yers and others familiar with the stat utes Notwithstanding that capital pun ishment has been abolished in Arizona through the adoption of constitutions al amendment, it is the opinion gener- ally that in Faiths case this amend ment would have no bearing.
 Governor Campbell on Saturday stat ed that as soon as the return of Faltin to the state prison as sane, had been certified to him, he would issue com mutation of the death sentence to life imprisonment. This he explained would be done solely because he be- lieved that a vote having been regis tered against capital punishment, there should be no more hangings in ATlZOud, even luOuBQ luTOuSH d SlIlCl interpretation of the law hanging in this case might legally be carried out.
 Whether County Attorney L. M. Laney will take steps looking to hay ing Faltin returned to the jurisdiction of the superior court of Maricopa coun- ty, is uncertain. MT. Laney has ad- mitted that he is looking into the law carefully but he is not yet decided whether the situation calls for any ac- tion on the part of his office.
 The party Of prison officers who came to Phoenix for Faltin and three other prisoners to be returned to the prison. consisted of S. E. Kent. assist ant superintendent and captain of the guards John Redmond, secretary of the prison; R. B. Henderson, Harry Campbell and James McVey. A report received from the prison by telephone Saturday night told of the safe arrival in Florence of the entire party. the trip having been made without par ticular incident.

Converse of the first judicial district,
comprising the counties of Dakota and
Goodhue, which takes in South st.
Paul, has been named as third man
on the bench in the seventh district.
The appointment was made by Cover

part Of the work along with Judges
Roeser and Parsons, who have been
doing all the work in the district since
Judge c. A. Nye left for the army.
Judge Nye is now major in the army

It is understood that the appoint

that when Judge Nye returns the dis

RED CROSS
(Press Commitee>

A committee has been formed for
the annual sale OF Red Cross seals at
Christmas time. It consists of Mr..
ga Nelson and Mr.. Verne .Joslyn. zsszs
A committee consisting of Mrs. Matt
Wetzel, Mrs. r. l.. Cochrane, Mrs. Jet
ka and Mrs.. Bergheim motored to
Freedmen on Wednesday. They took
with them samples of the sewing and
knitting work done here and hope to
interest the people of Freedmen and
to form either an auxiliary or a
branch.
, It may interest the Red Cross work
ers of Morrison county to know that
its Chapter is known at the division
headquarters at Minneapolis as the
Chapter that sends in 3tsuch beautiful
work. That is record to rouse the
pride Of the Chapter. But the Morri-
son County Chapter is not up to stand
ard in the number of things sent in.
The members are therefore urged to
more strenuous work in the work room.
A patriotic meeting will be held at
Upsala on Friday night, at which a.
branch of the Red Cross will doubtless
be started. Those attending from Lit
tie Falls are Mr.. A. Koslosky, Mrs.
R. L. Cochrane, Mr.. F. w. Dobbyn, Mr..
Nels Peterson and Mrs. R.. J. Sutliff.
Anyone wishing to make Christmas
bags for the soldiers can secure ma
terial for the bags and also informal
tion about them from Mrs. J. L. Blan-
chard at the library. These bags are
to be sent off by Oct. 3Oth.

BEFORE GOING EISEWEE:RE

Great enthusiasm is being manifest

the grand award might not be lost by

message to the members the club man
ager offers the following suggestions:
Now is the proper time to get some
energetic, systematic work in, and
allow us, please, to make a few
suggestions. We believe it is the bet
ter way to start with your home com
munity first. See that this is thor
oughly canvassed. Don It. miss a house
or a person for you cannot tell who
will take the paper from you. It is
much better to spend all your time in
your home community and know you
will get the results than to go to some
strange place and expect more. You
are better acquainted at home, so it is
logical that you should do your best
work there.
When you have thoroughly covered
the home district, then it is time to
get away from there. If you live in
town get into the country, and if you
live in the country get into town. At
ter this try the neighboring towns. If

friend Of yours to write an acquaint-
ance Of his, telling Of you and your
