"Ves." replied Van Cleave, "he nl-

what they were doing with all that

Ilndney Sackett. who is a clerk In

workers who were sent over the state
to boom Senator Stephenson's candidacy.
He kept a curd Index record ot the
expenditures but after the campaign.
finding the cards had been badly
worn, he destroyed them after making
a copy of the amounts spent.
"How, when you destroyed those
cards, did you expect to defend your
self again a charge that the money
might have been used for bribery?
Vou have nothing to show now that
the money was not spent for bribery,
have you?" asked Senator Ileyburn.
"No one ever thimght there was
going to be a charge of bribery, and
there is no ground tor sny now," the
witness replied.
Jt was while Ednonds was on the
stand that Senator Ie Follette and
suppportert were referred to as "half
breeds." Bcnator Ileyburn Immedi
ately wanted to know what the term
meant. ,
"Why," said Edmonds, "it Is well
known In V'isconsln. . When' a man Is
a republican but not regular he Is a
follower of Senator LaFollette and Is
called a half breed. The half breeds
were opposed t Senator Htephenson,
who is a regular."
K. U Monteath met his Waterloo
in the person of Judge Adams ill po
lice court today. He was up on three
charges, assaulting and beating his
step-daughter, Annie litukiier; disor
derly conduct, and resisting an officer
in tlie performance of his duty. It
appeared Ili.it the defendant had been,
in court on the former charge on one
r more occasions, but not before
Judge Adams, and had got olT rather
light. What he got today, however,
is not generally considered very light,
.tnd that was six jnonlhs on the coun
ty roads.
In the other two cases the defend-
nt was lined $3 and $10 and the costs
respectively.
Appeal was taken and the bond
was lixed at $300. for th't three cases
All the liises were tried together.
and I lie evidence against Monteath
was Kim n ly Annie Hacklier, her sis
ter, Jc iiiieii-e, Messrst, William, KUiwdi
.md Kniili, neighbors of the Monteath
family, and l'ntrolmeti Jones and
Ingle. According t the testimony the
trouble started about i o'clock this
morning In the Monteath home, when
the two liuckner ifirls dd not get up
as quick the Oelendant thought
they should; that ho gave both girls
a few licks with a swltoh, which was
said to he ot rHther large size. Annie
then went to th. kitchen and was
making tip bread. when Monteath
acain began Dealing hi' ioth with
the switch and with his liMs. As evi
dence of this the girl had some very
bud-looking inaiks on her arm and
bruised places on her fure.
Several-, Of the neighbors saw and
heard the iudurl ance, and one o(
them telephoned for a policeman. I'ft
irolmen Jones and Ingle responded,
and after taking stock of the affray
they summoned Monteath to appear
in court this morning. This, they
said, he refused to do, whereupon
they took him in hand and Mr, Jones
started to the city hall with him.
It was on the way, up that the al
leged resistance took place.
The defense put up the plea that
Monteath used only a small switch,
and did not use bis fists at all In the
assault. He and Mrs. Monteath both
testilied that the girls were unruly,
and would not mind. Further, that
they cursed and abused their mother
-ind step-father. ( They . contended
hat the whipping was necessary. - As
o resisting the oft leer, Monteath said
hat ho made no resistance and only
ooked around In order to tell a friend
o come and go his ball.
It was a rather badly mixed affair,
nd Judge Adams said:
"This condition of disobedience and
he use of abusive and profane lang
tage ran be traced to no other cause
han that ot the parents." He advised
hat It might be best for the girls, who
ire young, to be sent to the children's
tome, where they could stay untij
hey could And other homes.
Mrs. Monteath asked trw coort to
et them return, however, and the, plea
trs granted, after she was given some
nstructlons. Thesa were that when
he girls needed correction for her to
