ALBERT LEA SEEKS
SHERIFF'S REMOVAL
Petition Sent to Governor Chris.
Hanson; Malfeasance
Is Charged

st. Paul, Jan. 28-lR)-A petition
asking removal from office of James
B. OtteSon of Albert Lea, sheriff of
Freeborn county, has been received by
Governor Christianson, it was an
nounced today.
The petition, signed by "a residents
of Freehorn county, accuses Sheriff
Otteson of malfeasance and nonfeas-
ance in the performance of his official
duties, and cites few alleged specific
examples.
Petitioners Cite Examples
These examples, with many others,
the petitioners declare, form long
cord Of neglect In the performance Of
his duties, of the use of his office to
extort money for his private gain
from wrongdoers, and in careless dis
regard 'of the rights. and interest Of
the public"
Governor Christianson is also asked
to suspend the sheriff pending final
determination on the question of his
removal. A referee will be chosen by
the governor to investigate the
charges, the governor stated, but as
yet he has taken no definite action in
temporary suspension of Sheriff OF
teSon.
Sheriff Otteson, the petition alleges,
during November and December, 1928,
with his son. Mervin Otteson. and
Carl Hambly. Johnsburg, entered into
q conspiracy to extort money from
persons engaged in selling or trans
porting liquor.
From time to time during the past
year, the petitioners state, the sheriff
accepted brides from bootleggers for
the privilege Of transporting intoxi-
eating liquor, free from arrest, into
and across Freeborn county.
Other charges maintained are that
during 1925, 1926 and 1927 and 1928
Sheriff Otteeon has habitually allowed
prisoners, after due commitment to
the Freeborn county jail. to have their
freedom for substantial periods, or
escape being discharged.
Neglected His Duty
During the past four years he is
also alleged to have habitually failed
to make due return Of writs and other
processes and papers delivered him to
be executed, and has neglgently per-
mitted them to be served or executed
by his son Mervin, or by others whom
the sheriff held out to be deputies.
The oaths and appointment Of these
deputies. the petition continues, have
never been filed with the register Of
deeds Of that county.
As q result Of these acts, It is al
legged, the legality Of many chattel
mortgage foreclosure sales, real estate
mortgage foreclosure sales and default
judgments In the county is question:
able, and great losses may accrue as
q result.

KAISER once MORE
PARADES IN F|NERY
OF IMPERIAL DAYS
Gala Uniforms and Spike Hell
NETS Bob Before His Maj
esty, the Kaiser and King

Doom. Holland, Jan. 28.-(P-Aft-
er q day of memories of imperial
glory, Wilhelm Hohenzollern today
reaSsumed the role of a royal exile.
On his SEVENTEEN birthday yester-
clay the former kaiser stood resplend-
emf in field marShal's uniform of
the first royal guards. Upon hts
breast were the highest decorations
within the gift Of imperial Germany
and many other nations. Male par
Elephants in the celebration, CARRIED
in the gala uniforms of their military
ranks and wearing spiked helmets,
saluted him as His Majesty, the
Kaiser and King"
Princess Hermine, whom the kaiser
married in exile, was not present to
share her husbands triumps or to be
addressed as empress" The official
explanation was that she was i'll with
what at first seemed to be chicken
pox but probably was only grippe.
There was a rumor current, however,
that she was only automatically i'll
since the greater part of the Hohen-
zollern clan refuse to recognize her
as "her imperial majesty" conceding
her merely the title of the kaiSer's
spouse.
Police Patrol Estate
Dutch constabulary and police pa
tr0lled the barbed wire fence while
the celebration was being held. Male
guests arriving carr led their helmets
and mostly they wore ordinary over
coats instead of military ones, DON
ming their full war outfits in the en-
trance building.
Saint Paul, Martin Luther and Will
helm II were linked together by DR..
Heinriv Vogel, court chaplain, in
preaching the birthday sermon on q
text chosen by the former kaiser.
DIR. Vogel said:
Let us learn from the secret i'm
perator of the Roman empire (Saint
Paul. from the hero of Worms and
Wittenburg and from the silent man
Of Doom, to the unashamed of alle-
glance to Christs Gospel"
The kaiser, the chaplain said, had
always been pious man, but, as Cal
phas brought Christ to grief, SO his
enemies had succeeded in telling the
kaiser.
Hindenburg Writes
After the service guests were shown
the hundreds of gifts the former
kaiser had received.
President Won Hindenburg in his
capacity as a private citizen and
former field marshal under the kaiser
sent letter written in his own hand.
A huge birthday cake, upon which
burned not 70 candles but merely one
big life light" stood in the center
of the table.
Friedrich August the Third. former
king of Saxony, proposed the kaiser's
health while the household band Of
five pieces sounded a salute. VIII
helm responded briefly referring to
the effect produced upon him by the
sight of the old uniforms.
1t was understood that the Dutch
government asked that the party be
kept strictly private, being anxious
lest the celebration lead to political
demonstrations to which the Allies
might object.

Walter Rumble had broader ideals.
He set up his first stall In Berwick
street. Soho. outside q chapel. HAVING
obtained permission from the min
lister.
Almost any household necessity
could be bought at his stall more
cheaply than In the shops. The stall
soon prospered and became the GEN.
ter of busy mart.
Rumble's success was largely due
to his wit and personality. He was
famed as the best ''tale-teller" in the
trade, even when he retired two years
ago.
Others followed in his trail: the
country initiated London; and thus
the "tale-telling" method of selling II
Petticoat Lane and elsewhere has be-
come famous.

WASHINGTON, June 10. U.H -
To put down the spread of revolt in
the senate so congress may be adj
journed Saturday for the summer,
administration leaders issued orders
today for the full strength of both
houses TO be present until the end.
They plan to send the debenture
less farm bill to the White House by
Wednesday, take a. vote on national
origins repeal, modify the senate
secrecy rules, put through the census
reapportionmeut bill and set Octo.
Der 19 as the day for senate vote
on tariff revision.
1t is so ambitious a program that
the leaders are doubtful whether
they can conclude it within the al.
lotted time. Indeed, they are not
yet certain they can keep from re-
naming here all summer.
There is a dispute over every
point in the program and the revolt
ers have use of the liberal senate
rules which would enable strongly
organized minority to keep congress
here indefinitely. The protest of
the debenturites against abandon
ment of the tariff bounty plan in
the administration farm bin has
caused a sharper tilt than had been
anticipated and the movement has
not yet developed its full strength.
The incipient filibuster against a
vote on the repeal of the national
origins clause shows no signs OF
weakening,
Added to these two complex situa-
tions is the report of house and SEN
ate conferees on the census-reappor-
tionment bill, The report cuts out
the senate provision putting census
takers under civil service and the
point is in dispute.

YOUNG TALLMAN
CONT TINUES TO
ELUDE POLICE

SAN FRANCISCO, June 10. U.R-
William L. Tallman, elusive suspect
in the murder of Mrs. Virginia Patty
in Los Angeles, still was at large to-
day week after he set sail on the
liner Admiral Benson and four days
after his mysterious disappearance
from the ship when it docked here.
Since then al peace Officers along
the Pacific Coast from Portland to
Los Angeles have been on the look
out for the handsome radio operator
who admittedly was close friend
of the pretty matron whose body
was found bundled up and suspended
from a clothes hook in Los An
geles apartment.
\ body found in San Francisco
bay yesterday at first was believed
10 be that of the elusive suspect but
q brother and the father of Tall
man said it was not that of the
radioman.
The Admiral Benson, on which
Tallman once had been radio ope-
rator, was searched from stem to
stern when it arrived at Portland,
Ore, but no trace of the missing sus-
pcct was found.
San Francisco police continued
their search of the bay region today
convinced Tallman had succeeded in
swimming ashore and was hiding in
that region.
Mrs. Patty's body was found the
day after Tallman sailed from Los
Angeles for San Diego on the Ad-
miral Benson and he was questioned
but not held when the ship returned
to Los Angeles on its way back to
San Francisco.
Evidence was unearthed in Los
Angeles to the effect that Tallman
had been friendly with Mrs. Patty
and the landlady of the apartment
said his description resembled that
of the man who rented the flat a
few days before Mrs. Patty was
found beaten to death.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, June

who quit plastering to push a pea
nut up Pixies Peak with his nose,
rubbed two or three bottlesful of
linament on his aching joints today
and looked for new mountains to
surmount.
Undisputcd champion goober pro-
peller of all time, Bill announced
that with Pixies Peak conquered he
would move on TO the Grand Canyon.
He intimated that the expedition
was for no reason at all, but the
wise peanut derby fans saw in it a
new era in the latest of outdoor
sports. They figured bill was get
ting ready to nose a goober up the
side of the canyon and started saw
ing their money to bet he would ac-
complish it,
Bill and Mrs. Bill, his manager,
had suitcase full of contracts after
he had accomplished the hitherto un-
cqualled feat of rolling peanut
along the trail that Zebulon Pike
took when he first looked at the
world from the peak that bears his
name. In fact it wasn't on record
that any one ever had tried to dupli-
cate his feat or had wanted to. And
Just to make his record unassailable,
Bill finished the job about "a hours
ahead of schedule.
Mrs. Bill, when questioned as to
the future activities of her talented
husband, was reticent but admitted
he had won bet, the total of which
started with "$5.' Ciphers might
be added ad lib, she said
She denied that Bill was to become
the leading man for Wilma Banky,
that he was to pose for garter ads
or that he had job with a peanut
butter factory.
