DUE TO JEALOUSY!
A Russian Kills His Wife
near DenhOff and then
Tries to Commit
Suicide.
The Man Has Been Ar
rested and Will Have
A Hearing as Soon
as Possible.

Gottlieb Slebert, Russian liv-
ing about l3 miles northwest of
Denhoff, shot and killed his wife
Tuesday morning about 10 a. M.
The report of the coroner, E. E.
Green regarding the murder is as
follows: Siebert's wife was about
2ltyears of age and the trouble
arose on account of his wife not
wanting to live with him and in
sissed on stopping among the
neighbors, and only coming home
at intervals, causing her husband
to be very jealous.
On Tuesday Siebert met his wife
going to the home of neighbours
and shot her, the bullet entering
the. left temple and taking a down.
ward course coming out about
half way down the neck. The
bullet was found laying on the
snow.
Seibe1t after killing his wife
tried to commit suicide by shoot
ing himself in the head, inflicting
twswounds, one being only a flesh
wound, while the other is more Sc
ricHs, but later reports state that
the man will recover. The coroner
after an examination of the prem
iss,3 deemed that an inquest was
moi necessary as Seibert admitted
.|.'lt}a thi As s=.y4si] killed @ his wife.
A warrant was issued charging
Gottlieb Siebert with murder and
he Is now in charge of the officers
and is receiving medical aid and at
tention. The examination will be
held as soon as the man is able to
appear in court. .
Both are Russians and the mur-
der created no little excitement in
the community where they re-
sided.

ROOSEVELT.

President Roosevelt has received
notification of his nomination at
Chicago and has accepted it in a
ringing speech that will be the key
note of the Republican campaign.
He has outlined the Republican
principles upon which the campaign
of 1904 will be fought, and he has
left no point uncovered.
He has planted the Republican
party squarely upon the principles
OF protection and of doing things
for the American people.
He has shown that the Republi-
can party stood for honesty in
financial and industrial problems.
He has shown that the Republi-
can party has built up the United
States in to the first power of the
world, and he is doing it through
an open and vowed policy of stand
ing up for the American people on
American principles wherever the
American flag flies.
Contrary to the charges Of his
political enemies, Theodore Roose-
welt has upheld the traditional
policies of this country from the
days of Jackson down. and has let
the world know that there is a man
in the White House who stands for
something
He is not spineless sphinx who
does not know his own mind or his
own principles until after con-
vention has nominated him for the
highest office in the gift of the
American people.
A silent nonentity like Parker
may do for the trusts who wish to
govern the country through man
whom they can mould to Their
views, but the great mass of the
American people a man with a
Spine, man with grasp upon
public affairs, a. man who knows
what the people want and is not
afraid or ashamed to stand for their
wishes before the world, is the
man whom the voters want, and his
name is Theodore Roosevelt. S.

of June &, 1900 certifes that the
Idaho canal has never been
constructed into or upon any part
of the said coded lands, and that
there are no lands lying there under

same at the rate of ten dollars per
acre
The persons who may make entity
of the lands mentioned III the act

certain Indians made improve
ments, must pay for the improve
ments at the appraised value at the
time of making entry
Timber and stone entries must
be paid for in full at time of entry
and at the usual rate of 81. SO per
acre, as provided in the timber and
stone laws.
The lands to be opened embrace,
approximately, 41,00O acres, or
about 270 homestead entries.

There was considerable amount
OF kicking after the convention
ADJOURNED over the selection of the
delegates to the state convention
by the committee of seven chosen
by the convention for that purpose.
We cannot see the wisdom in kick
ing. The names of % men were
presented to the convention for their
ratihcatlon, and the convention
ratlihed the acts of the committee bv
their votes. Now who has got
any Just kick coming. WHY did
you not vote down the report of
that committee if ii didn't suit
you. 1t IS not business to sit by
and be party to ira nsaction and
then kick about i; after the bust
ness IS done. II this method of
selecting delegates to state coi:ven-

happen again. So far as the Peak
IS concerned we are we'll satifed

go down and vote as a unit on all
questions. There is no division
nor split in that delegation.

The Republican party will win
at the coming election no matter
what the platform says about the
tariff or the money question, be-
cause under Roosevelt the Repu bli-
can party stands for the enforce
ment OF all law without favor
because the Republican stands for
fair show fer organized labor
for a fair show for unoreanized
labor, and for a fair show for
capital. The Republican party
under Roosevelt stands for honest
men Ill office. without regard 10

punishment of crooks without
regard to pull or power. The

NO MORE GOLD BRICKS

But the wage-earners who were
fooled in 1892 have learned a lesson
which they will not soon forget,
and they cannot be sold a gold
brick again. The Democrats will
not get another chance to ''refor,n"
the Tariff for good many years.
Certainly not so long as people
remember the panic and the bust

victory in 1892, which was not
lifted until the election of Mr.
Mckinley in 1896 and his in
