Large Crowds
Enjoy Three
N.P.L. Picnics

The Leaguers Of Roberts county
enjoyed three Of the best. and most
we'll attended picnics in the history
OF the League in this county during
the past week. The first one was
held at the Erick Erickson grove,
near Rosholt, on Tuesday, June %.
The second at the Heineke grove
Sisseton Wednesday, June 30, and
the third at Andrew Christenson's
grove near Wilmot, Thursday, June
80.
Each of the series was attended
by large and enthusiastic crowds
who came from far and near to hear
the discussion of the issues confront
ing their organization, to meet their
friends and neighbors and exchange
ideas and consummate plans for the
further perfection Of their great Or
ganization.
Miss Alice Lorraine Daily was the
principal speaker at all three pic
MICS, and on each occasion delivered
message Of real inspiration, SOUND
logic and convincing facts. Miss
Daily is one of the most brilliant wo-
men and foremost educators in the
country and her fight in the struggle
for economic justice is in real earnest
and one that is having telling effect.
There were other good speakers at
the Wednesday picnic, among whom
were Tom Ayres, Carl 1verson and
Mr.. Henderson. Time forbids W
mentioning the different speakers as
we would like and according to the
merits of each, but suffice to say
they were all exceptionally good and
we'll received.
While the financial depression
that is being experienced Throughout
the country was more or less in evi
dence among the farmers, yet the.
were full OF determination and tat
unrelenting spirit that will eventual
ly win.

BLOWS OFF
HEAD WITH
A SHOT GUN
G. sWENsON, WELL-TO-DO FARM
Err NEAR SISSETON, TAKES
OWN LIFE EARLY MON
DAY MORNING

The shocking news reached town
by phone early Monday morning

ular farmer of Dry Wood Lake town
ship had taken his own life by shoot
ing himself in the head. Sheriff
Baker, Deputy Sheriff Minder, D j,
Prindiville and F. r. Mckenna left
Immediately to hold an inquest
which revealed death by his own
hand.
1t appears that Mr.. Swenson had
been in poor health for some time
and had been unable to sleep. On
Sunday night preceding his death
he refused to go to bed, and at three
a. m. had not retired. He begged his
wife to go to sleep, which she did.
About six o'clock. Jim Parker. who
was working there, went to the barn
to do the milking, and discovered
the lifeless body of Swenson lying
near a wagon not far from the barn.
He was barefooted and clothed only
in a night shirt, which was thrown
open. Beside him, lay shot gun
with which he had committed the
deed. He had evidently braced mis-
body against the wagon wheel, plac
ed the muzzle of the gun against
his forehead, and pressed the trig-
ger with his toe. The top Of his
head was blown entirely OF, pieces
of the skull and brain being scatter
ed about.
T. w. Cahill was summoned and
Immediately left to prepare the body
for burial.

intellectual man, liked and respected
by all who knew him. He was at
one time, deputy state superintend-
ent of schools. He is survived by
his wife and twin sons, Carl and
Paul, thirteen years of age.
For some time, relatives and
friends had been fearful that Mr..
Swenson's mind was becoming de-
ranged. He worried greatly over
imaginary troubles.
