' . An Explanation. : .
m ' V * ' . v :
. Last Friday evening.the : editor
/ . ' . of _ this . paper . -was1 . : . : called up by
: ) Judge Westover during court to
I explain an article entitled "district ,
't ' ' , ; - court" published in ' THE : VALEX -
I
I ' TINE DEMOCRAT 'o.t . Bec. ,16 , in i
f ! which the Judge seemed . to think
, I that we we're accusing ' him ' of ' dere ,
j liction of duty as district judge.
i . .
I I W 7 e did not know at the time of
I writing . the article referred to . ,
t J 'f } :
i. . that he would preside at this \ term :
: I "of"Court. Vie gave that matter i
no thought and had no thought of !
, 1
- - , ; I . criticising . or reflecting . , caustically - "
upon the work of our .district :
I. ! . . . judges in this . country. The get-
' : .ting "a . postponement on a trivial
I ' , excuse" was not - intended to . , ' re -
'
r J' , . .flect upon the judge granting a
I .continuance , which , under the
statutes , an attorney may demand
and the judge may grant. This
: , 'may be within the legal privileges
, . - - yet seem trivial enough when , the
. public understands ' that a delay is
the important factor in some cases.
I ' . in proof : : reading the above refer-
i Ted."tb\article , . r we cut out . a.para -
, . [ rgraph which seemed disconnected
I
' AV and did not notice that it might
' Jjbe : : inferred" t the judge was
_ " ' Cthe subject of ' . criticism , though
' : . , . .we dojiot believe the people who
* read . ; : the - ; article thought we re-
' ! ferred'to the judges of the district
? ! * . - . -court . . nor the county judge or
z {
r : , sheriff , and we did not so intend it.

vlmd one of ' " the worst rape cases in
-'recent : " : ' years a little over three
t

justice in flie horse stealing case :
. I'- The § e stocl ' : proposjitions ; . are " "Very
' . 'i . . . . -t' " important. Why not child rep , too" ?
* * f Some people get away WITHOUT
] : ANY TRIAL AT ALL. If big
'
1 officials . do not , like to be helping
t.
* to carry the burden of poorly dis
. ' . , \ charged duties . in some minor of-
, ' . feer.theyrshould { not endorse . him

* - ? ; ful acts which come to their notice
Coaud then petulantly call upon some
- . onewho complains to show me.
\ - , It " ' rather . ' savors " of the idea ; ' 'How ,
. , ' much do you : know about it ? and
: . ity.oju ' alone ! can furnish all the
'j ammunition and 'make the noise
. 's . . weMl step-in and'say that's right. "
t i % If an earnest , desire is felt to i
1 : - know the facts , there are plenty
r- : 4. of cases that might be investigated
' . : : . . . to F learn . . whether . . there ' are only
. t' . : rumors . or real . reasons for com
' '
- plaint of our tax payers because ,
,
. q \ , of a laxity criminal , prosecution
i ; : . . in this county. Some cases that

\ . : . ' bar to the investigation' . ' ' . .

" " "The American lawyer has

" ' fession in America is blighted by
I ' : two serious faults. The first is a

i" ' preying upon the public , legal
. { parasitism , and in its less 're ul-
: .sive. form . , ina . . - selfish " indifference

. ; 'whichthe calling of the lawyer is

District Court Over.
District court last week spent
: three days on the Loomis and
r -
Grain case , and the jury j said the.y
were ' not guilty. It's up to them
to say in jury trial , but when the
county has a sheriff who can ' catch
'em and the county-hires a prose
cution that shows up facts it , does
look like1 . a - jur.v.sh uld' not be
s\yeptloff * their'feet by a plea from
the attorney . ? ' for the defense who
seems to be an adept at throwing
a crying spell. If that's the price .
of freedom with'tUem let them re-
joice within th-emselyes' for the
public generally : : ! believes , them to"
be guilty. Witnesses told of their
employing the man to get the
horses and of receiving them in
the night at a price of $5 per head
for 14 head and that Loomis and
,
Crain paid $5 down to t bind the
bargain. . Also that a special
agreement was made that if the
Indian got caught he was not to
squeal on Loomis and Crain and
they were , not to squeal on the
Indian if they were caught.
. Judge Sullivan seems to be
pretty - good at throwing : a crying
spell and it was near Christmas
and the case lasted three days and
-Crain and Loomis are free. .
We don't think they will try .
to get any more cheap Indian
, ponies for awhile. } It must have .
cost something for that crying
spell. Judge Sullivan don't cry
without being pretty well tickled ,
v \ o guess. .

There was a little strike this
week when the railroad company
stalled . . , : . to put ' up ice on Lake MIn-
nechaduza. -They offered $3.50 per
day ' to the men with teams/ and $2
per day for men to saw and work
in r the cars , and $1.50 to ' $175 ; . for
floating . and prodding. ' . The men
wanted a raise of 50 cents per day
and selected a man of their number
as spokesman for the single men
and another for the men with
teams. They worked till noon Mon '
day and quit ' ' to await the raise
which was . given and the men start-
ed to work. The men who acted as
spokesmen for the strikers were re-
fused employment , we hear , and
were also given the cold shoulder
by those who went back to work.
Shouldn't they contribute from
their pay to make full wages to
these spokesmen who lost their
'
jobs in an effort to benefit the ,
whole , who are now profiting b I
what was sa d. in their behalf ? '
.
Perhaps they will do it arid will . not
see them get , the worst of it for
they may.\vanjt ; some , one to ! talk for. . .

of . pneumonia at the * at , of 60 , ,
years , . 8' : months and 2 day : . He * : .
'was 'born at Marti nsvillr , Ohio ,
April 24 , 1849. He was Ina ' . . .ied.
to Mary E. * Fenner 32 years ago , ' f .
' and ; ; . they lived four years at Mar-
shalltqwn ; lar . , . , before coming to
Cherry 'county 28 years .ago and . . . . . .
took a homestead on north table
where they lived a number of I
years and , then moved to towb. ;
. From , here ' . ' . , ' they went back to ,
Marshalltown and lived a few
"years Y , ; 9 returning to Valentine
eleven - years ' ago and the family
hsCS since made this their home.
Mr : Moon was jll but a few
I
days but he was ' not ' very strong. I
He caught a cold \vhile siding the"
north side of the Kazda building ,
perhaps better kndwn to the old
timers as the Efner building on ;
Main street. He . grew worse and
finally the extreme we'ather and
possibly other exposure developed
pneumonia. I
I
Mr. Moon bought hides and
furs and sold windmills. He was
also a carpenter and did con-
- *
o 4 '
iderable building around town.
He was honest in his dealings and
radical in belief. He was earnest-
ly conscie scious and a follower of.
the gospel teachings. Both ' he
and his wife have been ' '
. long mem
bers uf -the . \'I. E. church. 'Mr. '
,
Moon was a strong temperance
.
advocate and was'said to be "the
most earnest in his mission * - of
anyone in town. His familiar'
countenance . and ? ; walk will be miss
ed by Valentine people. . . . . ; .
His wife is partially . .paralyzed
and has been in very poor health ,
the past year and a half. She iss i .
prostrated with grief and the sh .0. ck
has been very severe for her.V . .
