The people of Custer are consid-
erabley incensed at the delay it the
punishment or Lehman for his crime.
All sympathy for the man seems to
have departed. The Chronicle in
speaking OF the case has the following
to say: The death watch was COM
menced Friday night of last week, and
Lehman WAS made aware of
the fact that every preparation was
being maae for his execution, bat the
wonderful nerve of the man never
deserted him. Monday ha was visited
by Rev. Tracy and Rev: Mckee. AS il,

that he was crazy, but both gentlemen
uni,esitatingly express their opinion
shat his mind was sound, and he an
excellent actor. Rev. Tracy stated
that the sympathy he had for the con-
demned vanished with that interview.
The Death Watch, n. S. DAILY, says
that Tuesday night, Lehman could not
sleep sonndly, but was wakeful and
evidently anxious. When Wednesday
morning came aud he arose there was
no noticeable change in his conduct.
The hope that has buoycd HIM so
long seemed deserting him, he was
silent and sullen and paced his cell

A Bonus for the Oxnards.

ABERDEEN, Nov. s: The citizens
gathered in mass meeting at the opera
house last nigA.t TO consider the feast
bility of getting the Oxnards to erect a
beet sugar plant here. The report of
the committee which visited Norfolk,
Neb., inspected the plant there and
interviewed the officials Of the sugar
company, created much enthusiasm.
Mayor Moody and the President Of the
Commercial Club were instructed to
name a committee, with the view of
raising a bonus and Offering induce
ments for a company to put a plant
here. The Oxnerds desire to hold 9TH
or plants, and as they are dissatisfied
with Nebraska, where the bounty on
sugar was removed by the state legis-
lature as Dol as they made their ID
vestments there, they look very favor
ably upon South Dakota, and may
build factories here and at Sioux Falls.
Aberdeen will leave no stone unturned
in orde, to get the enterprise.

A writer in the Siiour Cul Journal
predicts that cholera will follow the
famine in Russia, and that in dire re-
suits the cholera will far excel the
scarcity of food, and that possibly the
disease will not be confined to Russia
alone, but may spread over all Europe.
The same writer holds that the famine
is not due to natural causes, but is the
result OF the exactions Of the fax
gatherer, to supply funds for the
maintenance of Russia's immense
standing army. In many instances
the tax collector took the last pound of
grain and the last chicken from the
peasantry, leaving them without food
or seed. Thousands OF acres were not
sown last year. The writer arraigns
the government for the present unhap-
Py condition, and sees but little hope
for any immediate relief, as there is
no way of supplying seed for the next
poor
