THAT LAND LEASING BILL

The National Stock Growers asso-
citation will convene in Chicago next
anonth.
Among other important matters to
come before this meeting will be the
compiling and endorsing of certain
bills to be urged upon congress for
passage. 1t is reasonable to suppose
that among thuse proposed will be the
proposition providing for the leasing
of government grazing lands to cattle
and sheep men. AS will be remember
ed, this measure was originated two
presented to congress, but owing to the
strong opposition made by the West it
failed to reach vote.
In this organization very few, if
any, of the smaller stock growers or
ranchers are represented, it being
composed chiefly of large owners and
representatives of big stock companies
and corporations. And the actions of
this association do not voice the senti-
anents of the people Of the " est in every
respect.
Why the National association should
be so DESTROYS of the enactment of such
a measure, is beyond our comprehen-
sion, unless it be for the purpose of
checking the popular movement for
governmental irrigation, land grab
blng or putting the '1ittle fellows" out
of the business.
The proposition before being again
presented to congress will have under
gone some alterations, but it will have
the insignia of the former one, and it
is again up to the people who are in
terested in the development of the West
to see that the bill receives proper op-
position upon its presentation.

ROOSEVELT AND IRRIGATION

There is strong probability that
the forthcoming message of President
Roosevelt to congress will contain a
recommendation in favor of irrigation
Legislation. Such recommendation
would be of decided Importance and
influence. Prof. Elwood Mead of
Wyoming, who is the irrigation ex-
pert OF the department of irrigation, is
very confident of such result. He
had an extensive interview with the
president recently on the general sub
ject of irrigation. He found the pres
ident much interested in the subject.
The Washington Star says of the
interview: Elwood Mead had a talk
with President Roosevelt and nat
urally the matter under discussion
was that of irrigation of the great arid
lands of the West. Mr.. Mead has sew
eral plans for irrigation and will sub
NIT some of them to the president. It
IS understood that the president, who
lived many years in the West and is
we'll acquainted with the arid condi-
ton of that section, will saw a good
deal in his message on the subject of
Irrigation. Western members of con.
gress are extremely hopeful that con-
gress at the coming session will extend
nationa. aid to some national plau for
irrigation.
President McKinley's visit to the
West last May had done much to in
crease the friendly feeling he had for
the West, and in a number of his
speeches he referred to the need of irri-
CATION in the West. 1t was generally
thought by western congressman that
President Mckinley would have given
considerable space in his next message
to congress to a discussion of the need
of federal aid in the reclamation of the
millions of acres of land that cannot
be cultivated because water cannot be
obtained.

ROBBERY AND INCENDIARIsM.
Safes Blown Up and Robbed and
Town Burned to Cover Traces
of the Crime.

beaumont, Tex, June 3.-The little
town OF Jasper, capital of Jasper
county, was entirely wiped out, yes
terday, by fire. Seventeen houses, i'll
Guiding every business house in the
place and number of residences,
were destroyed. The town has no fire
department.
Previous to the fire the post Office
safe and the safe of the county treas
urer had been blown open and robbed.
The conclusion is that burglars blew
open these safes and then set fire to
the town to cover up their crime and
create an excitement which would af-
ford them an opportunity to escape.
The loss by the fire is estimated at
500, 900; it could not be learned what
the thieves secured from the safes.
The robbers escaped.

Records Are Sacred.

At Nashville last week United
States District Judge Clark denied the
motion of defendants in the First Ma
tional Bank cases for an order to eX-
anime the books and papers held by
the United States district attorney and
the bank, and that the district attor-
ney turn over certain pass books and
other papers. Judge Clarks says the
motion for an order to require the
bank to permit an inspection of it's
books and records by defendants has
been formally withdrawn, and proper
ly so he thinks, as he is without any
jurisdiction to make any order on the
bank. Neither the district attorney
nor the United States nor any other
person has the slightest power or au-
thofity to direct the bank what it shall
or shall not do in permitting persons
not interested in the corporation to in
spect it's books. The motion was made
in the interest of parties indicted in
connection with the shortage of w. w.
Lea, formerly connected with the
bank.

ACCUSED OF wIFE-MURDER:
And His story, Reluctantly Told
Bears Out the Suspicion of
Foul Play.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 3.-W. 81.
Kensmier, whose wife was Saturday
found murdered near their home at
Holton, Kas., buried in a shallow
trench, was arrested in Kansas City,
Kas., yesterday. Marks on the body,
which is believed to have been buried
since May 10, indicated that her skull
had been crushed with club, and
suspicion was directed against the
husband who disappeared on that
date.
Klensmire was induced to make the
following statement:
my wife and / disagreed frequent
ly. but usually let her have her way.
just before her death she was very
angry because L wanted to sell some
land to which she had signed a deed.
She said she would leave me. But I
did not want people to know she had
left me and told her to say she was
going away on visit. We had few
words on Sunday MAY 12) about it.
She went away and later / found her
body hanging from rope in the
barn. L took her down, but was afraid
of the disgrace, and hid her body in
the straw. The next day I buried her.
1 told the children she had gone to
Texas, and the telegram 1 had sent
saying that she was dead was intend
ed to keep them from knowing she
had killed herself"
All this was ground out of Kens-
mire in short, hesitating sentences.
Asked about the condition of his
wife's crushed skull, he said: Maybe
the dirt falling on it mashed it in. I
wouldn't strike her"
There was no more than two feet
of dirt over the body when it was
found.
Klensmire is a German farmer, 4S
years old, tall, spare and uneducated.
lie talks with hesitation, and appears
dull of mind. The possibility that he
would be tried for murder seemed
secondary to the disgrace that would
result from the publicity of the af-
fair. Kiensmire was born near Hol-
ton, and has always lived in that vi
cinity. His mother and two or three
brothers and sisters live there, and
are prosperous and respected.
