The most damaging point in the evidence
thus far presented against Luetgert the
Chicago sausage maker, charged with the
murder of his wife, is the discovery of two
gold rings in the factory vat and their
Identification as rings worn by his wife. If
they were really her rings, and the evidence
to that effect is very positive, they point
unerringly to the fact that she was muir
dered and her body consumed with chem
icals in the vat. Counsel for the defense
see this and will try to break the force
Of the evidence by maintaining that the
rings were not the ones worn by the miss
ing woman, but limitations, and We're placed
in the vat by somebody, perhaps the po-
lice, to make a case against Luetgert. If
that is incredible, it is also equally so
that man about to cover up a murder
and with ingenuity enough to destroy ev-
cry particle of his victims body should be
so stupid or forgetful as to overlook her
finger rings. Yet the most cunning GRIM
inals are apt to make just such blunders

Our esteemed and enterprising townsman
Mr. Charles F. Smith is an independent
candidate for mayor. 1t must be SO because
he admits it. Perhaps it would be more
accurate to say that he is an inchoate can
didate, since, under the law, certain condi-
tons have to be complied with before his
name can be printed on the ballot. Per-
haps Mr.. Smith will comply with these con-
ditions later on. Meanwhile, he seems to be
taking himself very seriously. His declara-
ton that rs per cent. of the people of In
dianapols must be taught as children are
taught in the kindergarten schools" seems
to imply that he regards himself as one
sent to teach the people. AS a matter of
fact he says he will start an illustrated
paper for the purpose of lnstructing the
people by the object lesson method. 1t looks
as if Mr.. Smith might contribute to the
gayety of the campaign.

Asphaltum Company's survey.

Price Advocate: Messrs. Hamnlann,
Pratt and Lyman arrived in Price last
Friday afternoon en- route to the as
phaltum beds about 1e miles distant in
the Whitmore canyon district. The
party are surveyors from Salt Lake
City, and their trip to the locality
named is for the purpose of resurvey-
ing tract of $50 acres of land ac-
quired from the government by the
Salt Lake Asphaltum company. From
statements made by one of the survey
ing party, it seems that a survey made
in 1896 by a Salt Lake City surveyor
employed by the United States govern
ment differed somewhat from g, survey
made by the surveyors who made
survey on behalf of the asphaltum COM
pany. The government has notified
the asDhaltum company to make an
other survey. beginning from the gov
eminent survey monument, as the gov
eminent surveyor located the Salt Lake

leves there is but one way to wipe
out the band-that is to post men to
guard the canyon passes, where their
trails run. The band has several boats
on the Colorado river and these must
be destroyed, and the fordable places
guarded until the bandits come along.

is no doubt an exaggeration, yet they

That our irrigation companies mean

amount, and Will cost. in all, as much
as $4,000 in labor. The total expendi-
ture is then not reached, as several
other companies are yet to make loans,
and others are building smaller reser-
yoirs.

reservoir is TO be built will, in all, cost

entire expenditure on reservoirs to be
made by local companies this year and
