Judge E. C. Dean Brands the
Misstatements Made BY One
william Lempke

Fairmont, Mimi, September 27-In
answer to a statement of William
Lemke, Nonpartisan league commit
tee chairman, that Judge L. c. Deans
criticisms of A. C. Townley and Jo-
seph Gilbert at Jackson, when SEN
fencing them to Jail for disloyalty,
had been prepared by some one else,
the judge today produced his original
manuscript, written in pencil. Lem
.kes statement was published in a
st. Paul newspaper
The league official also asserted that
Attorney George Hoke, chief counsel
for Townley, had told Judge Dean in
conference in chambers that he
should not try the case because of
bias and ought to call another Judge.
Mr.. Hoke had talk with me sew
eral days after the trial began" said
Judge Dean today. at certainly is
unusual to change judges in the mid
die of trial. At that time, however,
MI. Hoke made no such sugges-
ton, but did complain of being over
ruled on certain points. I informed
him that had no prejudice in the
case, but that his conduct in court
was most unprofessional and that he
must change his tactics"

VERY SERIOUS
PEOPLE IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT
MAY NOT RECOVER
Mrs. Henrietta Holt and Son Are
Receiving Treatment At
Redwood

F. d. Sleight Of this city has re-
turned from Delhi where he went fol-
lowing the accident in which Edward
Holt and Bertha Holt, his brother in
law and sister law were killed in
the fatal auto collision that occurred
between Redwood Falls and Delhi on
Wednesday.
Mr.. Sleight states that Mrs Henri
eta Holt who was severely injured in
the accident, is in very critical con-
dition and it is doubtful if she will
recover. Fred Holt, who was also in
the car is injured so badly that the
outcome is uncertain. He had several
ribs broken and the ribs have pune
tured the lung, causing a very dan
geros injury. Harry Holt the other
occupant of the car, while badly hurt,
seems likely to recover. All are con-
fined at the hospital at Redwood Falls.
Will Attend Funeral.
Mr.. Sieight will return to Delhi to-
morrow. when the funeral will be
held. He stated this morning that it
was his understanding that the car
driven by Selmer Cole, which collid-
ed with the Holt machine, was going
at very rapid rate of speed while
the Holt machine was not travelling
more than twenty miles an hour. Mr..
Cole only suffered slight bruise on
the hand in the accident and seven
others in the car all miraculously es-
capped injury.

Spent DAYS IN BATTLE
CARL E. OLSON MADE VERY
FINE RECORD OVERSEAS
Comes Home After Having Been
Many Months In Service of
His Country

Carl E. Olson, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Peter Olson, 321 Hickory street, ar
rived home yesterday noon, after hav-
ing served as a courier with the First
Division, Sixteenth Infantry, during
the entire war. Mr.. Olson wears two
silver citation stars, and will be
awarded service cross Tor gallantry
in action. He was one of the first
young men to enlist after war with
Germany was declared and was but
twenty years of age at that time. He
enlisted in May, 1917, from Tyler,
Mimi, where the family were living
at that time, and came to Mankato
with the recruiting officer. He left
Mankato for Jefferson Barracks, Mo-,
where he was assigned to his COM
pany and went overseas with the first
American soldiers to cross, arriving
in, France on June 26, 1917.
Work AS Dispatch Carrier.
His work as a dispatch carrier, rid
ing on a motorcycle to the very out
posts of the army, was very hazard
Gus, and he had many narrow escapes
from death. OF the eight motor cycles
which he used during the war three
were blown up while he was using
them, and his escape from instant
death on these occasions was consid
cred almost a miracle. At one time
he was gassed, and as he lay on the
battlefield, with American soldiers
dead, and dying, some of them hor-
ribly mutilated, lying around him, the
rescuers came to put tag on him to
send him back to a hospital, but he
Indignantly refused
Would Not Be Tagged.
Don't you put q tag on me-" he
told them. "Just look at the men who
need attention worse than l do. Send
another one of them back" For this
brave act he was later recommended
for service cross. At one time he
was reported killed in action, but his
relatives refused to give up hope, and
finally the good news came that it
was false report. He was one of the
first young men to leave for the scene
OF war and one of the last to return
home, coming home with General
Pershlng and being mustered out at
Camp Grant. ILL.,, last Thursday. Mr..
Olson will attend the home coming
for returned soldiers at Tyler next
Tuesday.

MOVIES IN THE CHURCH
THAT Is ADVOCATED BY REV.
S. H. SMITH, WASECA,
Spoke To the Congregations
Association In Session At
Worthington

Worthington, mn, September &c.
The annual conference OF the Con-
gregational church of the second dis
trict closed last night with the install
lation of Rev. A. o. Smith as pastor
of the Worthington church. Rev.
Mr.. Griffiths of Waseca was elected
moderator of me Second COMPRESSION
al conference for the ensuing year.
The big question discussed at the
closing session was the action the
church must take to meet the motion
picture trade on Sundays which is
crowdinG cut &c church services on
Sunday night.
Combating the Movies.
If the church is to combat success
fully the Sunday motion picture
show, pastors must arrange special
Sunday evening services with lect-
ures and colored picture slides or
motion pictures. This was the tc-
lief expressed by Rev. S. H. Smith of
Waseca in an address this afternoon.
The speaker said that the problem
of Sunday evening services is enc
of the great troubles in most churches
especially those of the towns and
cities, although even in the rural dis
trict there is also a difficulty in get
ting together a representative con-
gregation. But in the cities and
towns where the church has to meet
the competition Of the notion picture
theatre, he said the problem is all
the greater.
Cause of Unrest.
Rev. r. K. Chapman, Granada, de-
clared that the main cause of unrest
among wage earners of the country
is the sudden increase in wealth and
it's unequal distribution and the ris-
ing cost of living. The claims Of the
laboring men must not be ignored,
he said The wage Garner usually
decides to strike, he said, as the last
resort to gain what he believes to he
rightfully his.
Wage earners as r rule are not an
tagonistic to the church, Mr. Chap
man said. but many are Indifferent.
The church now has an opportunity
to blaze the way and show men that
brotherhood is not an IDEAL but
reality
