Threats have been freely made to lynch Martin O’Malley, in jail at Le Sueur Center under sentence of death for killing two stepchildren. Patrick Keogh, sheriff of Le Sueur county, has armed guards posted about the jail with a supply of guns and ammunition on hand sufficient to withstand a siege. He talked to the governor for some time over the telephone. The convict- ed murderer, O’Malley, is kept in soli- tary confinement, handcufted, and has to be put to sleep with drugs. He has also refused to eat for days at a time and in the opinion of the sheriff is crazy. The sheriff stated that the wave of feeling against O’Malley is widespread throughout all of the county in which the crime was committed and that open threats have been made upon the streets of Le Sueur Center. He said also that any ablebodied man with a sledge could break through the prison wall in ten minutes. The town is ap- parently quiet, but the O'Malley case, it is said, is the chief topic of conver- sation upon the streets and in the lounging places. He said also that the governor had promised him protection from the militia if needed. Retires From Presidency of the Uni- versity of Minnesota. Concluding his valedictory to his students with prayer and in tones that faltered from deep emotion, Dr. Cyrus Northrop laid down the mantle ef the presidency of the University of Minnesota and became president em- eritus. “ore than 1,500 persons crowed into the chapel, which has ‘a seating ca- pacity of only 900, to hear the retiring president say farewell to students and faculty. Hundreds of co-eds, as hia worde fell, sobbed aloud, and even men felt tugs at the heartstrings. The address, cheered to the echo at imtervals, and interpolated with out- ward expressions of emotion that the president could not repress, drew the tribute of absolute attention Dr. Northrop’s remarks abounded with ex- pressions of love and gratitude to both students and faculty, and he seemed especially sincere as he told the stu- | ents of the happiness he has always liqusstinn OocuiploatAcen Attention of Senate HOUSE PASSES RECALL BILL | pir ga \ Measure Differs Slightly From One | wa Sethe Meek meee Adopted by Senate. ‘ while—just long enough to see its Thomas Kneeland’s recall bill passed §qoom forthcoming—then it flitted away the state house of representatives by to oblivion. a vote of 65 to 32.

THIS COM- MERCIAL GOBLIN HAS GOT THE BULK OF THE BUSINESS IN MANY COMMUNITIES, TO THE DETRIMENT OF THOSE COMMUNITIES. IF YOU REAL- LY ARE LOYAL TO HOME YOU WILL PATRONIZE HOME PEOPLE IN BUSINESS. VERY MAN SHOULD RECOGNIZE HIMSELF AS A FACTOR IN HIS HOME TOWN AND BECOME A SOLDIER OF THE COMMON GOOD. WHY NOT? WE ARE MUTUALLY DEPEND- ENT, EVERY ONE OF US, FROM THE SUNRISE TO THE SUNSET OF LIFE, FOR NO. MAN LIVES TO OR FOR HIMSELF ALONE. THE UTTERLY SELFISH MAN IS A MISFIT IN THE SCHEME OF HUMAN EXISTENCE, IS A LIBEL UPON A BENEF- ICENT PROVIDENCE. These golden. words of truth ure quoted from a booklet booming a town that be Neves in Itself and is going forward with rapid strides because its people work to- gether for the common good. Its popula- tion increased nearly 100 per cent during the past ten yeurs, while another town similarly Situated. only twenty-five miles away, bas increased only about 1 per cent in thirty years Why the difference? The other town ts cut up into cliques and fae tions. Some sets won't trade or neighbor with other sets The result is that thou- sands of dollars every month are sent out of that town for mail order purchases, whereas in the town first mentioned, where the people stick together, it has been esti- mated that the home merchants get about 98 per cent of the trade. AS “We are mutually dependent. every oue of us,” remember that, and “become a sol- ry - dier of the common good” Patronize bome industries Trade at home. Don't be selfish and a libel THE POOR MAN’S DOLLAR AND THE MILLIONAIRE’S Every town has some citizens who occupy the attitude of indifference toward the community interests. They say: “Well, let the others boost the place. It can got along without my help.” This attitude is well expressed and excoriated in a pam- phiet recently issued by the Commercial club of Hannibal, Mo., Mark Twain's townt it may be that some of limited means, opportuni- ty or earnings may coa- sider that their share io the upbuildiag of their they have so responsi- bility and lack influence. This is not true. No map can evaderesponsibility— not ore. The poor man’s dollar contains one hun- dred cents. The dollar of the millionairebas acither more nor less, nor does it circulate to better com- muna! advantage. ‘The poor man who sends his dollar out of town to buy things from the mai) order houses in the great cities evades his responsibilities, just as does the million aire who sends or carries his dollar away to buy goods outside of his own town which he might better have bought at home ‘The poor man's doliar counts in building up a town. and it is to the poor man’s tnterest that he spend his dollar with his neighbors, keeping !t in circuiation around town, for every dollar in circulation does its part toward keeping the yoor man 1: his job or getting him a better one or raising his wages TOWN HAS NARROW E ESCAPE Fire Causes Loss of § of $100,000 at Ma pleton, Minn. Mapleton was threatened by fire that Gestroyed the Mapleton mills and ad- Joining property, entailing a lose of $100,000. The mills were situated in the Borthwestern part of town. Fire, said to be due to a defective smokestack, broke out at 27:30 a.m. A strong gale blowing from the northwest fanned the blaze into a conflagration which for a time threatened to envelop the town. The local fire department and buck- et brigade fought strenuously to get the fire under control and succeeded after practically the entire population had turned out. The mills, elevator and several smaller buildings were totally de stroyed. Two freight cars, one loaded with merchandise, on a Chicago, Mil- waukee and St. Paul track, were de | stroyed.
