The letter of Jugde Bethurum
published in these columns two
weeks ago. has caused much CON:
ment. The article was very
timely and we believe will result
in much good toward wiping out
the dastardly evil which has so
imperiled our town and county
so long. The whisky traffic is
the worst evil the country has to
face and the bootlegger is the
hardest violator of the law to
convict. He picks his man to
sell to and once the sale is made
it is the hardest problem yet. to
extract from that man who buys,
just where and from whom he
made the purchase. When the
jury is selected to try the case
Dick, Tom or Harry. who are op
posed to whiskey and would con
>vict, either manage to- get ex
cused from the jury or they are
cut off by the, attorneys in the
case. The witness takes the
stand and says he bought from so
and so. The bootlegger takes
the stand and says he did not
sell. The Judge instructs the
jury according to law and the
weakness of the law in such cases,
gives the doubt to the defendant
and he goes scquit. The Judge,
the sheriff and prosecuting attor.
ney. have each done his duty.
The law has been followed to the
letter so far as the court is con-
cerned. the jury satisfied that
they did their part, the bootlegger
pleased with the great victory
won and the public without stop
ping TO consider the facts, at
once, place the blame upon the
the officer OF officers of the law,
that he is not doing his duty.
The court can not do it all. Since
Judge Bethurum's letter was
published, we have heard re.
peatedly from people: what is
Cam Mullins doing? In justice
to JUICE Mullins we want to say
that he is trying 10 do his duty
Take the records of his courts;
the number Of men who has been
bropgm before him for invesiiga
tions ths number sent to jail and
it is sufficient proof of what he
is trying to do. The officers can
only do their part. The juries
must do theirs and the people
generally must do theirs. 1t is
too big a proposition for two or

get the only daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Wenzel Tauer passed away at her
home in Sleepy Eye. Death was due
to influenza. The deceased was a lit
tie over thirty-four years old, and
leaves besides her husband, three
small children, the oldest a year and a
half old and the youngest an infant of
only few weeks. The death of the
young mother is particularly sad as
her one ambition in life was to live for
her home and her children. She lived
in this community all her life until
her marriage few years ago and her
friends sympathize deeply with the
sorrowing husband and little babies
who are left without her love and
care. This is the second member of
the Tauer family to die from influ-
enza in the last three months, son
having died from the malady last win
ter, and left a family fatherless.
