To Prosecute German.

Israel Bower, n Of the county com.

city yesterday, and departed IN the
evening train for his home. His pur-
pose in coming to Deadwood was to en-.
gage an attorney to assist the county at
torney Of Custer county to try the case
of the State Of South Dakota against Jack
German, the fellow who shot and killed
Streetor, the pugilist in Custer City last
August. Mr.. Bower says that the people
of the city and the county are very much
displeased with the accounts Of the af-
fair which had been sent out from Gus
ter with regard to the killing by parties
who not only distorted the facts, but
who were really unacquainted with the
circumstance surrounding the killing,
but who have also placed the people Of
the city in a bad light by implying that
they condone the offense of German in
the killing of Streetor. The facts are
that the people of the city and those who
witnessed the tragedy, look upon it as a
cold blooded and premeditated murder,
and believe that the punishment melted
out to German cannot be too severe. Mr..
Bower while in the city engaged the
services of Judge Plowman, who has
agreed to assist the states attorney Of
Custer county in his prosecution of the
case.-Pioneer-Times, LIST.
