SUBSCRIPTION RATES: Oiio Year by Mall In Advance... $1.25 One Year by Carrier In Advance .$1.60 Entered at North Platte, Nebraska, Postofllce as Second Class Matter. TUESDAY, FEB. 2, 1915. Lire Stock Increasing In Number A bulletin Issued by tho Depart ment of Agriculture dated February 1st, Bays: "For the first time In many years, Information collected by the depart ment shows that all classes of live stock In tho United States aro Increas ing In numbors. Thus tho real facts contradict, absolutely, sensational re ports that prices for meat and shoes would rise to unprecedented figures In tho lramcdlato future. It has even been said that a government statisti cian predicted meat nt CO cents a pound and shoes at $10 a pair within the next two years. Such a predic tion, tho real government statistician says, Is qulto unwarranted. On January 1, for example, tho num ber of beef cattlo showed an Increase of 3.4 per cent over tho number a year ago, and an actual increase of 1,212, 000 head. Hitherto tho number of beef cattlo In the United States has declined steadily Binco 1010. There are also more milch cows In tho coun try tlian last year, tho increase being 2.5 per cont, or in numbers 525,000. Swine, howovcr, showed tho greatest Increase of all classes 9.G per qent. On January 1, 1914, there were only 58,933,000 bwIho in tho country; on January 1, 1015, G4,G18,000. Thic is ac counted for by tho fact that tho pro duction of swino can bo increased more rapidly than that of other class es of live stock and consequently an enlarged demand can bo met more readily. The prediction of 50 cent meat and $10 Bhoes was accompanied by tho declaration jUmt Franco alone bos taken from America nearly 300,000 horses within tho last flvo months and that tho other countries nt war have drawn upon our rd'-.oifrceb In tho samo proportion. Tho facts aro that more horses wore on tho farms of the United States on January 1, 1915, than there wcro a year before, tho In crease being 233,000 head, or 1.1 per cent. So far from Franco alone hav ing taken 300,000 horses from us, thq total exports since tbo war ' began novo cortnluly been much less than 100,000 and very likely not over 75,- 000, Since there aro approximately 25,000,000 horses altogether In tho United States, tho drain on account of tho war iajscarcoly alarming. It is, In fact, pointed out by govern ment statistical that tho market val uo of farm horses has actually declin ed to such an oxtcnt that tho nvorago Is now about $G a head less than a year ago. Kearney Drops Out of Loiium. Judications aro that there will not bo a stato lcaguo base ball team in Kear ney this year. At any rate, all appeals to tho old tlmo spirit of tho "fans" has been In vain, and a meeting called on Friday evening brought out loss than n handful of people. The feeling Booms to bo that baso ball Is on ex pensive luxury, and that the money expended each year to support a pro fessional team could bo expended to better purpose. Koarney Hub.

(Continued from pago one.) been offered Roberts, so far as ho knew, if ho would tell tho truth. Tells of Iilood Spots on Dress Tho next witnesses called were W. A. Skinner and George Shell, employ es of tho North Platto laundry, and thoy testified that about September 15th Mrs. Clayton brought a white dress to the laundry to bo washed and that woro two blood stains on It. Ono largo one on tho skirt Just below the waist and a small "trlcklo" on tho right shoulder. They stated that tho stain was never taken entirely out. Mr. Sklnnor testified that Charles Clayton had told him It was a "hell of a noto to tell tho reporters that a blood stained dress had been brought there and thus implicate an innocent man." Joe Rowo was next called and ho testified that bo had heard Clayton toll a bunch of men that ho "know enough to keep Roberts from going to tho chair." Nolllo Roborts was again called by the dofenso's attorney. She was brought Into tho court room by hor mother and when called forward she began to cry and refused to tako tho stand. Tho court then questioned her mother regarding tho little girl and was told that sho would bo seven years old the 17th of next May. That sho had gono to school in all less than three months and that sho seldom at tended Sunday school. Tho court re fused to let her go on tho stand, stat ing that It would bo a crime to put such a small, incompetent girl on the stand In open court. Again tho stato's attorneys signified their willingness to lot tho little girl go on, but tho court held firm. The defense then rested their case and it was taken up by tho state for rebuttal. Rebuttal Takes -Sinnd. Tho first witness called by tho re buttal was Charles Clayton. Ho was called to clear up the mystery of tho I stains on tho dress of Mrs, Claytqn and told that thoy wero tho result of a comforter fading on It In a rain storm on Saturday while they woro still I at tho Sund placo. He stated that they , had como to North Platto and that 1 Johnny Jones was wtlh them and that I on tho way home they wero caught In I a rain storm. Thoy stopped at tho I O'Conncll farm on tho south rivor road and went Into tho barn thero where It was noticed that tho dress was stained. Mrs. Clayton was then called and testified to tho samo facts. Sho was not called In direct testimony as tho stato did not wish to compel hor to go on tho stand and give testimony that might send hor o,wn son to tho eloctria chair. Sho w,as spared that heart ache. She testified that tho i dress had novcr been worn slnco It i 'had boon washed at tho, laundry and huh ui pre were no spoiq uii u hi mo present time. Sho produced tho. drosa, the skirt and tho .fqded comforter as ovldenco that tho spots woro only stain and told iust how .alio held the com fortor over hor lap and Bhouldcr and ovor tho llttlo girl. Crosd-eShhlina-tion failed to shako her story. Jolinny Jones was next called and I corrobarnKad tlujl testimony of Mr, j and Mrs. Clyayton. Ho stated that I they went to town on Saturday and I woro driving an iron grey colt, which thcly wero breaking, and a sorrol I mare. That Mrs. Clayton was dressed i up In her "Sunday" clothes and that r. L 23J5. Exchange Ull-ownJ. 10.8 Exehaagot not B1U owned or connected.

Ho said that ho knew it was Sat urday because they never went to town together except on Saturday. Ho stated that on tho way homo ho was sitting in tho back of the wagon with his feet hanging over and that ho got tired thero and sat in tho middle of the bed. Ho also told of tho rain storm which lasted about twenty min utes and remembered that Mrs. Clay ton had spoken of tho quilt fading on ho dress and Baw tbo two spSts. lie identified tho dress and stated that he know It by "tho llttlo holes In It," meaning tho embroidery. Cross-examination failed to shake his testi mony. Attorneys Argue the Caso Tho stato rested Its caco at 3:08 and Mr. Gibbs began bis argument at 3:11 Ho went over thq ovldenco thoroughly, proving first tho corpus dclecti, and introduced the testimony of tho different wltncJbseB and tho stato's exhibits. He finished his ar gument at 4:41 and Mr. Kcefo then began his argument. Mr. Keefo argued until supper time. He insisted that no facts woro pre sented and stated that It had not been shown by tho stato that Roberts was guilty. He Btatcd that they did not deny tho murder ana Roberts' con nection with It In ti.klng tho body away. Ho admonished tho Jury to never convict a man on circumstantial ovldenco "until tho very walls of boll woro cold, yes, until they froze over and they skated on tho ico" Ho stated that Roberts had not been given a fair chanco. Tho public opinion and tho press wcro ngainst him because ho had been a convict. "Because Roborts sold the team, Is that proof that bo did tho deed?" hcj asked. "No! The hand that Killed Vernon Connett was not that of Roy Roberts. Ho is not tho Cain. He sits right there," pointing to Charles Clay top. JTears welled in tho eyes of many aa Mr. Keefo pleaded for the life of a young boy who was charged with a crime of which bo was' innocent. Somo sobbed in tho court room. He spoko of tho Christ who was crucified as an innocent man. Of the race that crucified him as being a hated race and that Nebraska was now in tho po sition of that race of people. "Away with him: crucify him: I shouts the mob," said Mr. Keefe. "Thoy aro now shouting this same thing about thlB boy." Ho then told of tho killing as Rob erts related it and spoke of Roborts shielding his mother in the affair to tho last and that sho was "aa guilty as bell." That sbo had deserted her son In tho hour of need and was even testifying to convict him. "If there aro any dlscropancles'JW this defenso it Is not Roberts' fault, said Mr. Keefe, "I am to blame1 for tho short comings of tho defense. I havo had to bo father, mother and fam ily to this defendant ngainst the wbole populace and when ho went, on the stand I could not say, 'Roy, mother Is with you,' I could only tell him to go on with his story." Gibbs Answers on Rebuttal. Tho stato took up the robuttal ar gument at 8:38 and argued until 9:4t$i Mr. Gibbs asked th6 Jury to let no sentiment thwart them In their at tempt to give Justice. That they woro tho Judgo and wero represent ing the state in dealing Justice to a murderer who had confessed to being a highway robber and a forger. "If thero is any sympathy duo," said Mr. Gibbs, "it is duo to that llttlo girl who sits by tho filing caso and mourns tho terrible murder of her busband by a man who protended to bo their friend, and not to this criminal whom Mr. Keefo speaks of as being what God intended him to be. Look at thl,s skull and ask yourselves who made those three holes In It while Vernon Connett was asleep and could not 0.2 Placet eerreJ by, two comptnlet, n jority are owned by independent com panies, but oonnected with the Bell System.

Tho murderer's iron soul and consclcnco will not let you believe that ho is Innocent." Mr. Glbbn told of the unbuttoned shoes that would lead anyono to be HcvQ that the man was murdered while he was asleep and the bolt around his neck would show that ho was dragged to the river and left In a dunghill by a twenty-two year old boy who could not carry tho body. "And yet," said Mr. Gibbs, "ho comes into this court room wearing a suit (hat was bought with monoy rocelved from tho salo of this dead man's team. Blood money! and Bays that ho Is innocent. Such a man Is not deserving of anything less than death by tho hands of the stato in tho electric chair." Court GhcM Instructions Tho court then read his Instructions bf nineteen paragraphs to tho Jury, first reading the complaint filed against Roy Roberts that he on August 2nd last did assault with malicious intent one Vernon Connett with the in tent to kill and Blay. That said as sault was made with instruments un known to tho affiant. Ho then read tho statute under which Roberts was being tried to tho effect that If It was found that ono man had deliberately killed anotbed ho was guilty of murder in the first degree which was punishable by death or life Imprisonment to be decided by the Jury. If one man bad killed anoth er man maliciously but without delib eration ho was guilty of murder in the second degreo and was punish ablo by imprisonment from ten years to life. Ho then instructed them that they could bring in a verdict of olther of these If tho evidence warranted it, or could acquit him if he were not guilty as shown by tho evidence. Ho emphasized the fact that overy man was presumed innocent and tho proof had to bo beyond a reasonable doubt and then defined a reasonable doubt. He stated that circumstantial evidence was both legal and neces sary and was convicting If thq chain of ovldenco was unbroken. Ho closed bis instructions with the statement that wo owe It to society to punish every man guilty of an of fense and that no sympathy for either defendant or prosecution should be considered. The evidence of what the witness testify should be consid ered and if tho witness was moro or less interested his testimony should be nnalyzod. . With this he closed and tho caso was given into the hands of tho Jury at 10:12. County Attorney Gibbs announced Sunday that if tho caso should 'conib to a new trial ho could furnish evidence that the two men, Roberts and Con nett, were camping on the baseball grounds In the Sutherland vicinity on tho Sunday night on which tho murder is alleged to have been committed. Ho stated that this evidence wa3 not unearthed until after tho direct testi mony had been taken and could not have been Introduced in rebuttal. Jess Smith, of this city, stated that ho saw Roberts and a stranger on that night. He and Roberts went to school togother in Gothenburg and he recog nized him immediately. A party from 'here were at Sutherland on a picnic and they stopped at Jofck Veach's place for the evening. The two men woro camped in a covered wagon and wero singing songs. Roberts testified on tho witness stand that they wero islnglng songs cjno evening at the Sund place and it is known that both men made pretenses at singing. Mr. Smith stated that as they were leav ing the Veach place about midnight tho campers' wagon was Just pulling out of the baseball grounds. Tho attorney for the defenso hns threo days In which to file motion for a now trial and If this is not done Roberts will proably be returned to tho penitentiary to await his doom, tho day of which will be fixed by the prison authorities. Sunday afternoon Roberts called for his mother to como to tho Jail and vis It lilm. Sheriff Salisbury went after her and she stated that she was un ablo to see hor son. She was much broken over tho verdict of the Jury and stated that sho could not bear to soo hor son yet. She promised to see him, however, before ho leaves for Lincoln. Roberts Is quoted as having told At torney Keefo that bo knew the people wero scoffing at him for showing so much nerve. "They don't know what Is going on lnsldo of me," he is quoted as hav ing said. "If I showed weakness they would then accuse me of guilt and of weakening under tho thoughts of it, bo as long as I can keep my nerve I will do so. Ho Is also said to havo told Chair man Maggl that If ho was compelled to go to the chair ho would do so un flinchingly nnd would "never bnt an eye;" that ho would meet death like a man and never murmur.
