JOHN DEITZ VISITS
CAMERON FIGHT REPORTER

Rice Lake--John Deitz, once famed
throughout the country as "The De-
| fender of Cameron Dam," called at
the Chronotype office Saturday while
in the city. 1t was seventeen years
since one of the present owners of the
Chronotpe had seen Mr.. Deitz, on that
Inflated day, July 25, 1906, when his
son, Clarence Deitz, was shot down,
and John Rogich, who shot Clarence,
was wounded three times in an at
tack on the Deitz homestead.
"You did as told you, Mr.. Ender-
told the truth, for followed with in
terest your report in the Milwaukee
Sentinel and other papers at that
time," said Mr.. Deitz The writer re-
NAMED day and night at the Deitz
homestead, enjoying the hospitality
and being furnished with much inter-
esting reading material, also taking
photos of the family for the dailies.
On the way out to Winter the next
day after the battle the writer ami
his guide came close upon the officers
and was mistaken for DeitA, causing
them to hurry and leave their wound
ed man, Rogich, in log shack. At
Winter the telegraph wires We're cut
and the writer came to Rice Lake to
send out his stories.
Mr.. Deitz does not appear to have
aged much in the past seventeen years
despite the tribulations he passed
through, and has as keen a mind as
ever, being well informed on currenr
topics. The time spent in Waupun
Mr.. Deitz charges was wrongful inn
nrisonment. and he is preparing his
data to demand compensation. Under
state law this may amount to not over
1,500 year nor more than $1,000 in
all, unless by special act of the legis>
lature the amount is increased. Mr..
Deitz was earning large amounts of
money at the time of his arrest.
AS to the differences with some of
the children and his wife, Mr.. Deitz
feels they were unjust in SPENDING
savings of years before, and that
large income while he was in prison
may have developed extravagant
habits. The boys are running oil
stations at Milwaukee, and all the
children are now married.
Mr.. Deitz has an interesting his
tory and his many exploits would
furnish material for a book as large
as Webester's Unabridged dictionary.
The cost of trial, posses, special CT
ton with the attempts at capturing
Mr.. Deitz cost Sawyer county around
$4,000.
Mr.. Deitz is at present visiting at
the home of his daughter, Mrs. Her
man Voight, who lives near the city
on the Cumberland road. Asked
where he lived, John said. wherever
l hang up my hat" and then smiled
The Deitz family came to Rice
Lake from the southern part of the
state over fifty years ago John can
recollect when the first two houses
on the north side of the Red Cedar
river were built. There were no
railroads in this section when the
family came, so the journey across
country and over trails was trying
one. Of the sons. William died some
years ago, and John and Henry are
