Custer.

On the 9th, the case of the State VS.
Judd Pelter. came before the circuit
court, 1t was shown that the cattle had
been stolen and held in tue nelghborhood
OF Mr.. Pclters, but no direct evidence
that he was connected with the theft.
Again is the weakness Of the grand jury
system shown; men guilty OF open viola
ton OF law are not held, while on mere
suspicion a man IS thrown into jail and
his family is made to sutherland although
nothing is proven, the stigma remains,
and he is without redress. The Jury
impanaled to pass on the sanity Of j. B..
Lehman, decided him sane and sentence
was once more pronounced on the un-
fortunate man. There is now little doubt
but that Lehman will he hung on Friday
Feb, 10Th.
The Chronicle does NOT seem to have
formed a very high opinion OF Rapids ex-
pert physicians or her oratorical at
torney. lis related that DR.. VanBus-
kirk had made a visit to the Custer
county jail, while a number were confin-
ed there and stated to sheriff
Wood that he was confident he could
readily pick out the condemned, and as
he believed, insane man. When allowed
to show his powers, he bounced upon
Jack WEIGH, incarcerated for larceny.
Attorny Buell. is severely criticised for
his attack on the citizens Of Custer
county and city, Tor their persistence in
demanding the execution OF Leheman.
The people have been satisfied OF the
mans guilt, and impatient Of the delays
OF the law and the enormous expense
thown upon the county; but it would
seem that Mr.. Buell. should be commen-

the following gall from the

N-.s
Read the following gall from the
Record:
che stock in trade OF the seli-styled
calamity leaders in the Black Hills, anu
especially in Meade county, Is, and has
heen deliberate, downright, disgracclul
ialsehood-and they boast that they
are "~working the grangers." One pollt-
zeal liar last year, on liis return from a
trip of Islander and dirt, openly boosted
on the streets here that he mad MS
brand on most o. them ~iellers. 4 man
without IL t@himblefnl OF brains would be
sent out to some precinct school house
hy the calamity committee, and he
would return from his intellectual seed
time. and boast that he had "cor!alled
a lew more grangers.' This disgrareful
business is u matter OF fact, as many
citizens OF Sturgis know. The indepcn-
dent campaigners, the wind',ags, the
school house slouters, the hlatlerskies,
actually boasted that they mad cor
rallied a few grangcrs,'
The Independent workers are farmers
or laborers and would not abuse theil
friends. The above sounds very much
like the remarks OF heelcrs IN the Ole
time parties. Evidently the RECORD
claims a monopoly misrepresentation
and ialsllood regarding parties and the
UNION supports the claim. independents
should not attempt to meet the ionrIla
on that ground.

The Rain Making Question.

-H
On q question OF such vital impor-
tance as irrigation, both sides OF the
subject should be presented. This is the
mission OF II newspaper. While this
paper is not yet entirely Il convert to
the Melbourne plan, it fails to see why
his scheme should not be given a fair
square trial on it's merits, but it cannot
permit the opportunity to pass without
admonishing great care and caution on
those entrusted with drawing up the
contract. No loop hole should be left
through which Melbourne or his agents,
might succeed in saddling a lot of ex-
pense on our farmers, should the ex-
pertinent prove a failure. The UNION
sounds the note OF warning to Judge
Mc(iee and others.

place in Haris musical circles; it was at
his salons that Moscheles and Thalberg

CATTLE ARE STARVING.

From Twenty-Five to Sixty Inches OF
Snow Oh Idaho Ranges.
BOISE CITY, Jan. 25.-Thousands OF
cattle are slowly starving to death in
the hills Of southern Idaho. The loss to
stock raisars will be tremendous. Every
blade of grass upon the ranges is under
from twenty-five to:ixtyinches of snow,
and the present winter has not been
equaled in severity since 1870. Such a.
rigorous'season was not anticipated by
the rangers. and they delayed bringing
the cattle to the loNlanls. This delay
stOcknan said that every domestic ami
ma left in the hills is sure to meet death
either from cold or hunger.
