The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1904-06-28

Mr.. Mercator drew a map of the
world which have admired for a long
time and | may never find better
name for my daily reports on accuracy
for you.
Three years ago l printed a letter
to send to my friends and in 1t re-
1uested them to send me a short sug-
sestion for the daily life of men and
boys in shops and factories, on rail.
roads, ships and farms and in mines
and forests.
The letter brought me some ideas
but | did not give it much attention
and permitted other things to push
1t to one side, until last month, when
| picked up bundle, reread it and
decided that it should be set going
again.
During the next half century | would
like to visit every country to collect
local personal wisdom of general use
among those every where in the world
who wish to know more.
If | can get people to sending me
on postal cards their valuable expert
ences and cheerful observations may
by means of the newspapers of the
world reach those who reach every.
body in the world To me it seems
that every person who gives orders
to any one has chance to be teach
er or promoter of accuracy, fore
thought and greater individual skill.

oriuin of Names

In England the daw is hardly ever
mentioned but as Jack; yet daw and
net jackdaw is the proper name OF
the species. 1t is suggested that the
pie owes the mag" to some corrup-
ton of Margaret or Meg. To mag is
to chatter, but whether the verb was
derived from the name or the name
from the verb is question. It is more
probable that the jlmcrow of America

How some new white
flannel caps got into the
mud.

The first | saw about it was a group
OF mon and boys on the street cross.
ing.
T. man was helping a boy pick up
some large, square, overturned paper
boxes.
The boy was more of a person than
you would think from his SIZE.
The boxes numbered eight or more
and made small wagon load, but
the boy was carrying them alone
when string broke and into the mud
they went.
White flannel caps were in the
boxes and number of them were
more or less coated in mud when they
reached the sidewalk.
The boy told me that the man at
the factory did not put enough string
around the boxes.
Now, that is human nature, isn't 1t?
You or l would have said the
same.
Have you ever known boy who
would have said that he neglected to
have more string put on the boxes?
The boy either neglected to audit
the string when he took the boxes or
else he decided wrong about it.
We can sympathize with the boy
and all who were blamed or worried
by mud on the new white caps, but
we can learn to shoulder more things
which belong to us and more that do
not belong to us. 1t is a strengthen
ing and educating exercise to blame
ourselves some and give others an
occasional rest

The forethought of q
very cautious yot ng
an who had Just he IN
promoted.

Visiting with friends and attending
to private business during business
time is where few people are very
positive.
This morning noticed an employer
looking at an employee who was visit
ing with social caller. The employer
thought it out of order and the EN-
ploye may have thought the same. but
the latter was between two fires, duty
and duty
Duty to the employer and duty to
the friend who called were in conflict
The employee may have discouraged
friends from calling, but could not
conquer all of them. TO offer to work
overtime when possible or to excuse
the employer from paying for the time
spent with friends during business
hours might be considered.
The very cautious young man just
promoted had a caller who wanted
to leave package for him and who
could not make the right change. The
man just promoted overpaid him and
requested him to leave the package
and change at 10 inquiry window
This plan saved time and commotion
and showed that Mr.. Just Promoted
was thinking in advance
A general manager tells me that he
must secure plan for taking less
time with callers either by having
hours for callers or more diplomacy
or retreat for work.
One man who was just finishing
directory told caller that he was
so busy he could not take time to
trade dimes for gold dollars.

The Devils Lake Inter-Ocean having

The Devils Lake Inter Ocean having
charged the enmity of Editor Grant
Hager to Senator Hansbrough to the
fact that Hansbrough could not get a
consulship for Col. Hager, the Mandan
Pioneer steps into the breach and en-
deavors to console Hager with the
statement that live North Dakotan
would not want such consulship as
a North Dakotan could get Says
Editor futile: s'Take a consulship
such as might be within the reach of
a North Dakotan-such as Client,
Bruges, or even one of the smaller sea-
ports or cities of England or Scotland.
What would Col. Hager want with
such position? The emoluments are
small; there is no prestige to speak of
in the Office. the work is lazy, almost
useless to the general public, and it
would get awfully monotonous. We
should like the Col at some time in
the future, to cross the Atlantic with
the writer hereof, and go with him to
visit some of these consuls in small
European towns within the reach Of
North Dakotans, and see what a
dreary time they have. The pleasure,
every day of the week of the task of
these men is not to be compared with
that which comes in the work of
managing a first class newspaper, such
as is Col. Grants paper, the st.
Thomas Times. In a growing, pros
porous North Dakota community, a
newspaper publisher can make him
self an important factor in the daily
life, and It is a poor community and a
poor newspaper indeed, II he cannot
make as much every week as he would
get IN an ordinary consulship. Let
the Colonel, II the Inter-O Ocean is talk
ing correctly, take JOY In the fact that
he Is living in a live etate, instead Of
negotiating In a slow, pokey European
city, on meager salary, surrounded
BY people with whom he has practical
" nothing IN common, with little real
helpful work TO engage his attention.

THE KILLING OF liner,

Details Of the Killing Of o. p. liner
by 3. c. cIimie-Three Men Are
Held for the Crime.
Dickinson Press: Sunday afternoon
the city was shocked when B. c..
Clinic came in from the ranch and an
nounced that he had killed o. P. Ziner,
but that he did it in self defense. He
claimed that liner fired twice at him
first and that he then returned. the fire
with fatal result. He was accom-
panied by Harold Brown, a brother-in-
law, who corroborated his statement.
Clinic gave himself up and was lodged
in jail Sunday night.
Clinic purchased the liner cattle
ranch last fall and herd of cattle was
left there during the winter. Clinic
lost IT'S head during the winter which
caused dissatisfaction as liner claimed
there was plenty Of hay had It been
used judiciously. This spring liner
replevined the cattle and there was
i'll feeling between the men each claim
ing the other was trying to defraud.
Clinic recently Instituted a suit
against Elmer at Bismarck.
Early Monday morning the coroner,
Fred Dickinson. G. M. Dinsdale, and
Robert Lyon, jurymen, Drs. Davis and
Perkins, Attorney Simpson and Craw-
ford, Sheriff Goodall and A. M. Pomroy
started for the liner ranch.
The autopsy revealed no marks of
violence save two bullet holes. The
body was found face down under the
wire fence with thhe head toward the
house. The first bullet entered the
left shoulder, passing inward and up
ward completely severing the spinal
cord and was found but a little be-
meath the skin on the right shoulder.
The second bullet shattered the skull
and scattered pieces to a distance Of
ten or twelve feet while brain tissue
was found as far away as SO feet. The
medical opinion was that the shot in
the back was the first and that death
was immediate but either shot must
prove fatal.
Before proceeding further with the
story Of the tragedy brief description
of the relative location Of the points
mentioned will interest our readers.
The barn is east of the shack which
faces south, while south Of the shack
some so yards is a three strand wire
fence. Beyond the fence and parallel
to It is the ploughed ground where
liner was at work the fatal morning.
Still farther south is the wagon track
curving nearest e feet) the ploughed
ground at the point where liner was
at. work and where the revolver was
found. The corral Is west Of the
house. s. taG'+*+..' - )
Besides this thorough post mortem
examination, photographs were taken,
careful measurements made, and all
evidence possible secured. The In.
quest was then adjourned to Dickin-
son. The remains were brought In
Monday night. E.:.sl. 3 III !.
The inquest was resumed in this city
Tuesday before States Attorney Camp
bell, assisted by Attorney Simpson
representing the state, Attorney Craw-.
ford representing Clinics interest,

when substantially the following story

WA0A SUBSTANTIALLY CA0 AO1AOWAu6 6lOTy
was brought out.
Friday Sheriff Goodall and O. P.
liner went to the ranch the former to
tally the cattle.
Sunday morning there were at
liners ranch besides himself, Sheriff
Goodall, and Knutson and Fordyce,
his two men.
Knutson went away from the ranch
after breakfast returning about eleven
o'clock, reaching the corral gate in
time to hear three shots fired.
Sheriff Goodall left the ranch about
eight o'clock to return to town. Going
by Clinics place not far from nine
o'clock he had some talk with him.
Had seen Clinic Saturday night and
either then or Sunday morning told
Clinic he himself was going to Dick
inson Sunday and liner Monday.
When Goodall served papers on Clinic
some time ago the latter used vile
language and as good as threatened
to kill liner If liner did not leave him
alone. Sunday he asked II there were
any more papers to serve and said
liner would find out who was running
those cattle
After Sheriff Goodalrs departure
Sunday, liner and Fordyce went to
the ploughed ground south of the
fence to plant onions. Between half
past ten and eleven Fordyce went to
the house and then to the barn and
was between the two when he saw
Clinic, Hartell and Brown driving up
toward liner, Hartell driving and
Brown sitting in behind. Saw them
stop and heard some one call Hello"
Was In the barn but moment ana
went into the house to hang up his
coat and while there heard shot.
When Fordyce came out of the house
at the sound Of firing, he saw liner
crawling under the fence toward the
house and saw Clinic, who was on the
side Of the wagon next liner, stand
up and fire. He saw liner fall and
did not see him move again. Clinic
then jumped from the wagon and ran
a little nearer and fired the bullet
which struck liner in the head.
Clinic and the others were accord
ing to Fordyce, at the ranch between
five and ten minutes. After the shoot
ing Clinic called Fordyce and said
t'He pulled a gun on me and shot. He
could not get me-" Clinic and Brown
must have left at once for this city.
Testimony at the inquest showed
that neither Sheriff Goodall or Fordyce
had seen weapon on liners person
or about the premises; also that on
Sunday morning he wore neither coat
or vest, Just shirt and trousers and
heavy buckskin gloves. No testimony
brought out who fired the first shot.
A revolver which had been fired once
was found on the ploughed ground.
This revolver was q Montgomery
Ward, had FIVE loaded cartridges and
an empty shell under the hammer.
The loaded cartridges had apparently
been III the gun some time, and the
empty one seemed to be an old one
and appeared to have been creased to-

Grinnell, June 23.-The people OF
Poweshiek county are waiting expect
antly for some definite news regarding
the county seat relocation question.
The board Of supervisors met on

sion, and attorneys for both sides were
then present. The board, wish>
ing TO dispose of other routine business
first and 10 have time to consider this
matter among themselves before listen

ablest lawyers have been pleading the
case before the board at Montezuma.
No definite conclusion has yet been
reached, or. at least. has not been made
public. While every one would be glad
to have the question speedily settled.
there is no expression of opinion
heard that II Is; likely TO be settled
without getting one or more supreme

contest feel that they have already ex-
pended too much time. effort and mon

accepted by both sides.
