around the Chieftain phone, when a
lady called up to say that she wished
to goodness -sakes'' we would get an
other carrier on their route. She said
she had missed several papers lately,
and that her husband was always 80
cross when he didn't get the paper he
made life miserable for all Of them.
She said he had been out in the yard
twice looking all around, and wouldn't
eat supper until he read the paper.
BY this time the boys had gotten
pretty well around with their papers,
and after visiting with numerous sub
scribcrs over the phone. exchanging
compliments and assuring them thai
the complaints Of each would be taken
under adyisement, and that it would
not happen again. the subject was
dropped.
While these mishaps are annoying
TO the Office and subscribers alike, they
prove conclusively one thing, and that
is that the people read the Chieftain.
In conclusion we will say that the
circulation Of the Daily Chieftain is
now under the careful management
Of Miss Halle Thompson, and, with a
number Of good, wide-a-wake. lively
carriers, many delays and mistakes
win be avoided in the future. How
ever, If you fail to receive your paper
notify The Office and the matter will
receive prompt attention.

In one case apparently the making
OF a plea of guilty has not saved the
defendant the extreme penalty of the
law. Ordinarily there is a tendency
where a person charged with murder
makes plea of guilty and avoids the
expense of trial to visit upon him
something less than the laws ex-
tremest penalty. This is the custom,
hardly to be sustained by good reason
or logic, but nevertheless it has grown
up with time. In the Gottschalk case
at st. Paul, however, Judge Lewis,
after receiving plea of guilty. has
sentenced him to hang. Having con-
fessed to one cold blooded murder and
to completely at least in the other. it
would seem that if the death penalty
was ever deserved, Gottschalk de.
served it.

this sum to go to the credit of the
maintenance fund. A like bill shall
be rendered each six months, as long
as the patient is cared for in either
institution. The county must pay the
bill and rely upon, collecting the
amount from the relatives or estate
OF the person committed. OF course,
IN cases where paupers or persons
financially irresponsible are committed
to the asylum, the cost of maintenance
to this extent will be upon the county,
1t has been admitted heretofore that
the estates of persons insane should
be called upon for sum sufficient to
reimburse the state for it's care. but
SO long as the charge was made not
directly against the county, the sum
was not often collected. Under the
new law county commissioners will
probably see that the sum is collected
IN every case where possible. The
payment of this sum every six months
Will serve to relieve the state of q
large expense in maintaining these
charitable institutions.

In decision in a land contest case
IN Rolette county, the commissioner
OF the general land Office has made a
ruling that, every eligible person who
lived in North Dakota when the state
was admitted to the union, is now q
citizen OF the United States, whether
he has taken out his final naturaliza-
ton papers or not The contest in
question is one in which the claim of
an insane man was contested. He
had taken out his first papers but was
adjudged insane before he made final
proof, and it was impossible for him
to take out his final citizenship papers.
1t having been shown that he resided
IN the state prior to it's admission in
1889, the commissioner decided the
case against the contestant. The
decision was based upon a decision of
the supreme court of the United
states in a Nebraska case, where the
same point was settled.

President Roosevelt received such a
welcome in Chicago as that big and
thriving city was well fitted to give
him. Notwithstanding the strike in
progress, the president was able to
traverse the streets and reach the
several points of his entertainment
without personal experience with
strikers or riots. Both sides of the
strike appear to have agreed that the
visit of the president should not be
characterized by disagreeable Incl
dents. It would be to the credit Of
Chicago now If the opposing elements
should get together and settle this
foolish disagreement which is costing
thousands of money and a number Of
lives, and is being continued at the
great disturbance Of business.

A VERY IMPORTANT DECISION.

Relating to Homestead Entries and
Naturalization Of Persons In North
EY Dakota when state Was Admitted.
Fargo Forum: Every eligible per
son who lived in North Dakota when
| the state was admitted to the union,
is now a citizen OF the United States
no matter whether he has taken out
his final naturalization paper or not.
In a decision In a land contest case
from Rolette county recently, the
commissioner of the general land
Office has made this ruling.
The case was one in which the
claim of an insane man was contested.
1t appeared that the entryman had
taken out his first citizenship papers
but before he made final proof, he was
adjudged insane and was committed
to the state insane asylum. On &C.
count of his mental condition 1t was
impossible for him to take out his
final citizenship papers and his claim
was contested on the ground that he
was not a citizen of the United States
and therefore not entitled to prove I'D
on claim, ... -,
1t was shown that the unfortunate
man had resided in the state prior to
the proclamation of statehood in 1889
and the commissioner decided the case
against the contestant, holding that
the entryman was a citizen by reason
OF his early residence here.
The decision of the commissioner
was based on a decision Of the su.
preme court in Nebraska case en-.
Titled Boyd VS.. Thayer. The case was
one where the election of Boyd to the
governorship of Nebraska was contest.
ed on the ground that he was not a
citizen of the United States for the
reason that he had never taken out his
final citizenship papers. The court
found in favor of Boyd on the ground
that his residence in the state prior
TO Its admission to the union made the
citizenship papers unnecessary. =.
