4. STILL ii JAIL.


When Max Pfeiffer was 'arraigned
before mum cipal Judge John ], Cutting
last Thursday morning at II o'clock
charged Withsgrand larceny and burg
larry Of the Palace Clothing store Of
Sleepy Eye on the night Of May IL, he
waived examinat ton and pleaded guilty
to the charge He was thereupon
bound over to the grand jury and re-
turned to the County jail where he will
remain until the gfand jury convenes
in Decent ber unless heSis admitted to
bail by Judge Olson. He may also
ask that infornaatf9 ion be filed against
him and he will then appear before
Judge Olson and plead guilty to such
informant tipn whereupon he will be
sentenced and can imm diately enter
upon serving whatever sentence the
court may impose.
Other Fat In The Fire.
Jointly charged in the criminal COM
plant with Max Pfeifer, lis one, Ray
mond Brooks, who is still at large,
It seems that Brooks lived South Of
Springfield near Comfrey for some tire
and that he was also a resident Of
Sleepy Eye for short tine, con ing tD
New Ulm the latter part Of March
when the Schmid family with whom he
lived, removed from Sleepy Eye to
New Ulm. It will be remem bered that
Mr.. Schmidt committed suicide some
time during the month of January at
Sleepy Eye. Brooks seems to have
ived, here ever since coming to New
.Ulm but disap ppeared about the time
that Max Pfeiffer was Questioned about
his connection with the Sleepy Eye
store robbery and meade q confession.
No one seems to know the whereabouts
'cf Brooks at this tine.
1 The County Attorney and the
Sheriff Of Brown county have been
:unabl to SECURE the cooperation OF the
.sheriffs of other counties because Of the
pending primary election and there
seem to beanoa funds savailab bile for the
purpose of@hiring plain clothes men in
the Cities tp locate Brooks in case he
should have gone into hiding there.
It may be news to the readers Of the
sReuiep to fndss out that the sheriff
has been una BE to secure payment for
his expenses in TIA king persons to penal
institutions during the month Of
January and also during the month Of
June. Instead Of cold cash he has
been given a slipo paper tp the effect
that there are no fund { ds. ayailla ble at the
present time and he simply 2 must ulst wait.
Although there is County con-
tingent fund in which thereis clpse on
to thousand dollars, it seems as
though none Of this is availa bic for the
purpose Of hiring detectives and for
securing evidence and for the time

In accordance with the Rerieap's
policy Of giving all sides Of. subject
q fair hearing, the following, letter is
published in full as received by us.
It treats Of the Swan Lake Drainage
project as viewed by those who favor
the, plan, to reduce the. waste land il
the vicinity Of the lake. The Reuie.u
has given much publicity to the hum
ter's side of the controversy and is
ready to, publish anything new which
may be brought out to clear up the
questions We are NOT hunters and
have no personal interest in game pre-
hut we do believe that un-
limited drainage projects are inimical
to the best interests Of the land.
However, the project advanced by the
Swan Lake farmers may be quite diff
ferent and wholly within reason. At
any rate, their plan is entitled to an
unbiased hearing and all interested one
way or another should make it a point
to inform themselves carefully on both
sides Of the question. The following
letter states the farmers point Of view
