That question will be put up to
twelve jurors probably by Wednes-
day night. ..s
The mass of evidence for and
against the little clergyman will have
been presented By that time and
arguments completed.

witnesses in sur-rebuttal and, the an
nouncement was made that arguments
will begin tomorrow morning at g.
Attorney Hess of Council Bluffs

time limit being fixed on the closing.
CAUTION TO JURY.
Judge Boies tonight admonished the
Jurors to abstain from discussing the
matter among themselves or from
forming any opinions until they had
heard the closing arguments and in
structions of court.
Four alienists testified today as to
the peculiarities of paranoiac. with
which mental alteration the defense
claims Kelly has become afflicted.
The defense questioned to show a
man with paranoia might, following
continued accusations, become OBJ
sessed with the idea he had commit
ted a crime, even. to the extent OF adj
mitting it,. v
Evidence of the Day. ..
The state showed through its spe-
cialists that a paranoiac resists sug'
gestion, rather than following 1t.

vice from Washington.

There can be no class exemption"
said members of the district exemp-
ton board when approached on the
subject OF exempting farmers. "This
is the sentiment of Washington"
In spite of the bombardment of tele-
grams to Hoover, President Wilson
and everyone else with influence in
Washington, it has been decided to
make no class distinction, and the
farmers as a class will get no more
favors than merchants or manufactur-
ers or any other set of workers. II
is feared that If farmers were ex-
empted, even though their work is vi
tally necessary to the. war, at once
many other classes would arise, de-
manding the same exemption, and the
government seems to think the wisest
course to pursue now is to make no
distinction.
Still Hearing Claims.
The district exemption board is
continuing its work hearing claims
for exemption. The local boards
meanwhile are waiting for the results
of this hearing to know if they have
their full quota for the contingent to
leave October ) or if they must call
in more men. t D..
ave are twenty-three to the good
so far" said Clyde, Sundblad of the
Fourth district board. ."Unless the
district exemption board exempts a
large number between now and Oc-
tober 3 we will call in more men"
"We are waiting till the district
board acts" said DR.. Reed of the
Sixth district. "We have our quota
and few over. Unless the district
board exempts too many married men
we will not have to call in more. We
will know in few days where we

John Nj. Haines Dead.

Ex-Governor John M. Haines died al
his home in Boise Monday morning
Death resulted from uremic poisoning
Mr.. Haines was prominently indentifi-
ed with the growth and development of
Boise from an early day and was part
ner of w. E. Pierce in many big enter
prises. He was at one time mayor of
Boise and in 1912 was elected gov
ernor of the state. He was nominated
by his party again in 1914 but was
defeated by the present governor,
Moses Alexander. He was about Sc
years of age.

amount to little in some ways, but il
would be interesting to compare the
two petitions which have been circu-
lated of late and see where the major
ity of the conscientious mothers of
Emmett and vicinity have thrown the
weight of their influence. We do not
have to go far to prove that com
munity which allows its Sundays TO
be commercially desecrated inevitably
lowers thereby its moral tone. Few
businesses in Emmett would be worth
owning, real estate would 90 begging,
many parents would not raise their
families here, if it were not for the
moral and religious influences Of the
town. And these are the interests, not
to be ignored, which conscientiously
come before the mayor and the coun-
ell of Emmett and ask that our Sun
days be delivered from commercial
ism. We do not attempt to dictate
what any man shall or shall not do
Individually on Sunday. We are not
trying to force any man to go to
church. We are not seeking the cur
tailment of any mans personal liber-
ty. But we do want what is best for
the town in the long run. We want to
see this problem solved in such a way
as will be fair to all, as will bring
about the greatest good for the great |
est number. We are for Emmett, |

Abrogation of Sunday Laws.
(By Request)

We boast of the civil and religion.
liberty guaranteed by the Constitu
ton of the United States. But if in
dividual states, in the interest of {
particular religion, are permitted t.
trample this liberty under foot, Of
what value is it?
The Constitution declares that "Con.
gress shall make no law respecting ar
establishment of religion or prohibit
ing the free exercise thereof" The
supreme law of the land also declares
that "the government of the United
States is not in any sense founded on
the Christian religion" (Treaty with
Tripoli)
To enforce the observance of the
Christian Sabbath upon those who re-
fuse to accept the religious system of
which it is a part is subversion of
the principles upon which our govern
ment is based. The government has
nothing to do with religious beliefs
and institutions. Yet, notwithstand-
ing this, the statute books of nearly
every state in the Union are disgrace
ed by laws recognizing the authority
of this religious institution.
The Supreme Court of Ohio and
other courts have decided that the
observance of the Christian Sabbath,
as such, cannot be legally enforced;
that all Sunday laws must be recog-
nized as mere police regulations, in
stituted because of their supr osed
sanitary benefits, and deriving ne
whatever from any sane
tity attached to the day. All religious
services conducted on Sunday are a
violation of these laws; for while the
of the Mosaic law is not
generally acknowledged, the obliga-
ions of these Sunday laws are yet
to be identical with those |
imposed by the Fourth Commandment.
The way in which these obligations
ire obeyed by Christians is thus ex-
pressed by one of Boston's ablest di-
ines, Rev. Minot j. Savage:
"The whole of the Fourth Command
nent, without any evidence of any
reservation whatever, the totality of
he Fourth Commandment, is simply
bstinence from labor. Now l dare
ssert, without fear of contradiction,
hat except in some few special cases
here is not an orthodox minister or
in Boston, unless he
sick so that he cannot move easily,
tho ever thinks of obeying the Fourth
or ever does it. What
it they do? Why, they have invent :
whole round of duties-church-
DING, Sunday school, everything,
gainst which, mark me, have no :
ord to say; but l say they have in
ented a whole round of duties, a
hole curriculum of obligations, last $
e from sunrise to sunset in many
lses." {

OLD LOOkS?


Persons suffering from too much uric
acid in the system frequently look
older than they should. They age
faster and the appearance of gray hair
OF baldhead in early years is, indeed,
often sign of uric acid. The face
appears lean and haggard, lines and
wrinkles appearing in young men or
women.
The best way to combat this prema-
ture age and the obstruction to the
arteries and faulty circulation is of the
simplest. Drink copiously of pure water
between meals. Obtain at any drug
store a small package of Anuric which
is to be taken before meals, in order to
expel the uric acid from the system. The
painful effects of bac<ache, lumbago,
govt, due to uric acid in
The blood should quickly disappear after
treatment with Anuric.
