AT COURTHOUSE, FRIDAY.
Addresses To Be Made by State
Engineer Willard. Sen. Cliff
and Rep. Newman.

A meeting has been called by the Tri-
State Flood Control Association to be
held at the New Ulm Courthouse next
Friday, February 6, at 2 p. M, for the
purpose of discussing the important
problem of flood control in the Mime
sofa valley. The plans are to form an
organization Of the farmers along this
section of the Minnesota river, whose
interests sh- uld be protected.
The meeting will be addressed by State
Engineer E. V. Willard, Senator F. l..
Cliff, author of the new Drainage law,
and Representative O. C. Newman.
who sponsored the Cliff bill in the House.
The Cliff bill provides for organizing the
entire Minnesota valley in one food
control district, so that the interests
OF all sections may be taken care of in
one big plan. The new law also pro-
vides that all lands now drained by
big bitches may be assessed $1.OO per
acre.
Invitations have been sent to the
farmers in this section. They are signed
by D. Z. Williams, for the Tri-State
Flood Control Association, E. F. Scarf
ing, secretary Mankato Commercial
Club, and ]. A. Ochs, presi dent New
Ulm Commercial Club. The letter states
that EngineerE. v. Willard has outlined
a plan for building three big impounding
dams above Mankato, and for deepen
ling and Strengthening the river channel
so as to carry off the waters more readily.
The cost Of these improvements will
be about $1,3O0,000, which is less than
the loss sustained last year from floods
IF this had been done twelve years ago
when the matter was first proposed, the
farmers would have saved many millions
of dollars already" the letter states.
It is expected that large number Of
farmers will attend the meeting.

the most interesting jury cases in the
past several years in Brown county
Farmers in neighboring counties are
also very much interested in the out
come Of this trial. County Attorney
w. T. Eckstein and Assistant Attorney
General Col. Albert F. Pratt will prose
cute the case. The two defendants

Four Indictments.
Four separate indictments have been
returned against the two defendants.

ting was arraigned during the court
session in May, pleaded not guilty to
the Indictment and his bail was fixed at

time the Indictment was returned and
remained there until September, when
he was brought to New Ulm by Sheriff
Vim. ]. julius. He was arraigned and
pleaded not guilty whereupon his bail
also was fixed at $1,000.
The charge Of extortion under which
Wye and Cutting were indicted grew out
of the alleged collection of so-called
expense money for trips to the plaintiffs
famrs.
