COVERNOR OF IDWA INDICTED Grand Jury Returns True Bill Against Carroll, COWNIE CASE THE BASIS Hawkeye Executive Accused of Crim- inal Libel in Statement Regarding Removal of Member of State Board of Control—Punishment if Convict- ed Is a Year in Prison or a Fine of $1,000. Des Moines, July 21.—Governor B. F. Carroll has been indicted by the Polk county grand jury on tke charge of criminal libel. The pi uting witness is John Cownie, former member of the state board of control, whose resignation the governor demanded as a result of tion of affairs at the state school for girls, At the time Cownie resigned Governor Car- roll published a statement in the Des 1 Capital which Cownie declares libelous. The indictment has created a sen- sation and may have important bear- ing upon the state campaign. Governor Carroll probably will be arrested and arraigned shortly. The punishment connected with the crime of libel is imprisonment in the state penitentiary not to exceed one year or a fine of $1,000. When Mr. Cownie resigned he stated that he had been compelled to do so without merit and for political rea- sons. In response to this Governor Carroll issued a public statement, set- ting forth his reason for ousting Cownie, and it is because these rea- sons were published that Cownie de- manded an investigation. The defense to criminal libel in Towa is truth and justifiable motives. Governor Carroll in his defense will undertake to prove the truth of the statements and will urge his justifi- cation in the fact that he had been ac- cused of unfair dealing in the face of a primary election in which he was opposed by an insurgent candidate of Mr. Cownie’s faction. DAY ADDED TO CONGRESS Programme for St. Paul Conservation Gathering Completed. St. Paul, July 21.—The programme of speakers for the National Conser- vation congress has been definitely decided upon and all differences are at an end, according to a telegram from Chicago. It was alsc decided at a conference between representatives of the Twin City committee, B. N. Baker and Thomas R. Shipp of the national body that an extra day should be added to the four days of the con- gress, to be known as “President’s " when President Taft is expected e the ghest of honor and open the g with an address. This extra y to be Sept. 5 and the congress, as originally planned, will extend through Sept. 9. It proposed that “President’s day” shall be devoted to addresses by the governors of the Western states who were put on the programme at the request of the local board. The gov- ernors themselves are expected to ar- range their programme. They will be given free rein in choosing their top- ics and will be allowed to speak of the conservation movement from any view point they desire. IN ADDRESS IN CALIFORNIA Pinchot Refers to Ballinger as “Man Whose Name | Do Not Mention.” San Francisco, July 21.—Gifford Pin- chot made his first speech in Califor- nia in behalf of Hiram Johnson, the Lincoln-Rooscvelt league candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nom- ination. So large was the crowd that desired to hear the former chief forester that he was forced to address an overflow meeting afterward. Mr. Pinchot made no direct reference to Secretary Bal- linger, but several times referred to “the man whose name I do not men- tion in public addresses.” BOLT STRIKES AEROPLANE Aviator Has Thrilling Experience in Spain. Barcelona, July 21.—In a cross country flight Aviator Ehrmann’s aero- plane was struck by lightning and fell blazing to the ground. The aviator escaped uninjured. There never has been a more startling aerial exhibi- tion than that which Ehrmann un- willingly afforded and those who wit- nessed it could hardly believe their eyes when the air man emerged from the singed framework none the worse for his experience. Charged With Killing Sister. ‘Wayne, Neb.,, July 21.—Willlam Fiege has been arrested charged with the murder, on June 30, of his sister, Miss Louise Fiege, in their home near here. The arrest was made following a confession of a hired hand, who told a remarkable story. He said the brother murdered the girl in order that he might marry a neighbor girl to whom his sister was opposed. The Value of Doors. When a man is cross there isn’t any- thing in the world more aggravating than a house with all the connecting doors down or ome that has doors that close noiselessly. A man likes to slam a door. He gets more good out of slamming a door, in his opinion, than any one could get out of religion. It is his protest against everything in the world that is wrong, and it means that he isn’t much older than the child that beats its head on the floor.—Atchi- son Globe. s Sl A S Three Morning Specials 75¢ Neckwear 38c 35¢c Neckwear 22c¢ 65¢ Silk Gloves 38¢c CLEARANGE OF ALL SUMMER WEAR This week inspires renewed vim and vigor and spurs us on to > Our strict orders are to empty the store of ‘ &5 still greater efforts.
