A. r. Smith, Of Hermosa, one Of Treas
urer Tunley's deputies, has made for
himself en- excellent record as tax col
lector. Some time last week Mr. Tunley
notified him by telegram that P. S.
Reeves, a Battle River rancher, who was
contemplating removing to Minnesota,
owed the county $50 on his tax account,
and ordered Smith to take steps TO se-
cure the amount. BY the time the dis
patch reached the deputy, Reeves was
three days on the journey to Minnesota,
having with him all his earthly posses
sions. Deputy Smith struck his trail
and followed him across the state, over
taking him sixty-five miles north of
Pierre. Reeves. when held up, was only
too glad to settle, and paid the tax bill,
costs of the chase. etc, the whole
amounting to sos. The-persistency and
energy of the officers of the county az

Two weeks from next Wednesday is
the day fixed for the execution of John
B. Lehman, the murderer of Jas. Burns,
and at the present writing it looks as if
the sentence, twice passed upon him by
the presiding Judge of this judicial cir
cult, would at last be executed The
only hope that the murderer's attorneys
now have for him, is that the Board of
Pardons will commute the sentence, and
Frye, Wood Il Buell. have already signi-
fed their intention Of applying to that
body for mercy. In view ofthe circu M
stances that surround the case it is diff
cult to understand on what grounds
is founded their hope that the Board of
Pardons will interfere with the carrying
out Of the sentence. The board has
power only to consider any extenuating
circumstances connected with the crime
that the attorneys for the defense may
have to offer. and in this case there GER
tainly are none. That Lehman will
hang is pretty sure thing, and that
that is the only proper disposal that
could be made Of him is still surer
one.
