Six cars, double-locked, guarded by
United States inspectors and filed with
1s4 Chinese bound for the St. Louis
Fair, were attached to the overland
train that pulled out at $50 o'clock last
night. Tagged and numbered, the sons
OF Han marched one by one from the
tug TO their temporary prison. It was
evident from their appearance that the
men were OF the farming class. Accom-
panying the crowd were only eight OF
the original number Of twelve women.
The remaining four are in the Presby-
terian Mission Home, where they viii
await deportation to Hongkong. There

To the Editor News.
DEAR SIR: I infer from a remark
in your late editorial, "The Sheriff s
Office Again." that you desire to have
expressions from tax payers of this
county indicating their attitude toward
the present sheriff in keeping two
highly salaried men in the employ of
the county, inasmuch as the needs of
the Office require them not.
Correct me If am mistaken in TAX
ing for granted that the law statue
allows the sheriff of our class of county
to have what is called an under shiriff
and jailer at the expense .of the
county. Also kindly correct me if
assume that it is compulsory on the
part, of the commissioners to allow
the salaries of the same. But be this
1dtNCl dSSutIlpllOll VI uC VI ldASC, tiIC
whole responsibility rests on the sheriff
since it surely is not compulsory by
statue nor by mandante of commission
ers for him to keep two assistants if he
can conduct the affairs of his Office
without such aid. And herein is the
crux of the whole matter. Does the
sheriff need these assistants and are
the commissioners sure that he needs
them? Or does the sheriff keep one on
account of his good looks and make the
commissioners believe they all three
put in as many hours at hard work, as
your humble granger, (who pays the
bills) looking for law breakers or sit
ting on those they may have found?
beg pardon for the blunder, l forgot
for the instant that we pay Custer for
doing the sitting.) Or do they all
know that it is fraud upon the county
that can be perpetrated, because the
law in Its indulgence allows it.
And while this question of lawful
graft is under discussion, what kind
of nerve has man got who will hold
county office whose duties he can fill
alone and have time to play marbles
or study law, as he chooses, and turn
over practically the whole work to
deputy and he devote his time to pri-
vate affairs, as our present county
clerk and recorder is doing?
I say let the men who are selected |
to perform the different duties of our
Offices, and who are justly, if not
generously, paid by the people for so
doing, do the work devolving upon
them to the best of their abilities; work
d reasonable time each day and if by
diligent application they cannot per-
form their labor, the most parsimon-
ious tax payer in nine states would
not object to allowing an assistant.
Perhaps l may be answered by the
statement that this or the other man
was elected to this or that office and
that said office is his to do with as he
wishes, within the law, for his term.
and that it is my duty to saw wood
and keep my mouth shut until next
election and then drop my saw and
work for the party.
Let us arise against this lawful
graft wherever found and condemn
most strenuously the spirit that per-
mits its growth, for it is in the in.
dnlgent, timid or covetous spirit of the
community that the CRATER gets in his
fine work.
Hoping to have not fatally bored YOU
l am very truly,

ROOSEVELT'S S
N. D. HOME;

Senator Hansbrough called on Pres
ilent Roosevelt one day recently and
exhibited photograph Of Chimney

North Dakota, which President R jose
yelt occupied twenty years ago when
he was sTancbing on the Little
Missouri. It has been decided By the
North Dakota people to remove the
building to the ST. Louis fair as a
part Of the state exhibit and Senator
Hansbrough's 8 mission was to obtain
from the president some proof that
the buildings were the same as be
occupied. After examining the pno.
tograph the president wrote the fol.
lowing on a slip Of paper. s. \.
