is sincere. He has never been ambitious
for the kingship. while Mataafa has many
years thirsted for power and will not be
easily satisfied. With respect to the future,
1 can say little. The commission has en-
deavored to eliminate from the original
arrangement all OF the TEXTURES that nave
appeared faulty or weak. Those sections
have simply been struck out, leaving MOTH
ing in their places. What will rob the
whole document Of proper effectiveness is
the tripartite treaty under which it will
have to operate. I I'm sure that no gov

see this and formulate some correction the

The chief Justice left the island because
the high commission would not guarantee

AN UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR.
Arrest of John Eck,und for Acct.
dental killing OF a Boy.


John Ecklund of Lead has been arrested
on papers gotten out by Michael Rasmus-
sen, for the killing of his l3-year-old son
last winter. The circumstances about the
case are rather peculiar. Ecklund is an
employee Of the Holmestake Company and
is the father of a large family. Last No
vcmber he went out for a hunt on Box
Elder, and when near the home of Itas-
mussen, he saw something move i'll a
clump of bushes and fired at the OBJ
ject. 1t proved to be the son of Ras-
musscn. who was struck by the bullet in
the chest and was instantly killed. The
father threatened arrest at the time, but
the matter was fixed up by Ecklund agree
Ing to pay a certain amount of money from
his monthly wages. The %coroncr's jury
exoncratcd him from any blame i'll the
shooting. The unfortunate affair seemed
To be the starting point for a series of
calainitics which have befallen I.cklund
and his family. He has had continued
sickness in his family and sustained an i'll
jury to his hand which laid him up for
some time from working in the mine. He
has been unable TO meet his agreement of
money with Rasmussen. Ecklund tried to
commit suicide once and he feels terribly
over the matter. The sympathy of the
people is with him.

Appeal to the Supreme Court.
The writ of habeas corpus was denied in
Deadwood Tuesday in the case Of the
State Of Nebraska against Grant II.
Tod and notice was Immediately given of
an appeal to the Supreme Court by Tod's
attorneys. Capt. Tod was released under
S5W bonds, a stay of proceedings for ten
days having been granted. In the trial
several queer legal proceedings We're
brought out OH the part of the plaintiff.
1t Was shown that the complaint had been
issued %irregularly at York, Neb., the error
being sufficient to throw the case out
OF the South Dakota court. Sheriff
Lancaster of York County stated
that he did not see Gov. Lee at Pierre
when lie got the rcquisition papers
to take To- to Nebraska, but that the pa
pers were delivered by the Governors pri-
waite secretary. 1t is alleged that the Gov
ernor had Il number of papers signed
ahead and that the issuing of them is often
given over to his secretary. On this spe-
cial occasion Gov. Lee, il is stated, was at
his nome in Nermillion and knew nothing
OF the transaction. The defense will make
i, strong plea that the action in granting
the papers of eXtradition for Capt. Tod
was not according to the statute, since it
is necessary for tho Governor to satisfy
himself thoroughly before issuing such
papers that the complaint is sufficient.

Henry Billion, president of the Son:h

forth that offers had been made of tile sale

that his son had offered them for sale. In

At the Governors Office it is claimed
that there is Il misstatement of facts in a
recent special from Deadwood, as the
reason that no militia organizations are
being formed in the State. The article
gives as the reason that the Governor re-
fuses to authorize any such organization.
The real fact, as stated by Secretary

troops were sent to the front the equip
ment of the old Guard were taken along.
With the exception of a few old and useless

MADE several applications to the War De-
