that his head had been crushed. A
heavy fatiron lying beside the mans
body is thought to have been the wea-
pom used. There is no explanation of
how the iron came to be in the room.
Lewis had thousands of chattel mort
cages. and it is thought than an argu-
ment must have ensued over some of
these, and that after the discussion
grew heated. something was said that
reused the Indignation of the visitor to
such an extent that he committed the
murder.
Hoped to Conceal Crime.
After he had seen what he had done.
he expected to conceal his crime. By
putting straw on the body of the vic
time and saturating it with coaloil he
hoped TO first burn the corpse until no
evidence Of violence could be found up
on il.
He undoubtedly supposed that the
flames would catch in the building, and
burn IL to the ground. The impression
could them have gone forth that the
wealthy banker had been asleep in the
house when a fire broke out, and lost
his life in the flames.

ANOTHER TILT
ON STATE BILL
Attitude Administration
Brought Out in
Committee.

Washington, Jan. 2O-The hearing on
the statehood bill before the house
committee closed today with an address
IN It's favor by B. r. Rodney, for mer
delegate to congress from New Mexico.
The address afforded the democratic
and republican members of the COM
mittee opportunity for a final tilt on
the statehood question. Rodney being
frequently interrupted with questions
from the members of the committee.
and heated arguments ensued. which
designed to bring out the attitude of
the administration on the statehood
question.
Representative Lloyd of Missouri
asked Mr.. Rodey if it We're not the
president and the speaker of the house
who are forcing the joint statehood
issue
Rodey asked to be excused from an
swering. and Chairman Hamilton of
Michigan intimated that the democrats
were being forced by their organiza-
tion to oppose the bill.
Moon Of Tennessee interrupted the
argument to say:
Il object to the gentleman from
Michigan and the gentleman from Mis-
souri, having this fuss here, when in
private they express very opposite
opinions"
Mr.. Rodey defined the system of tax
alton in both New Mexico and Arizona
and said that corporate influences have
been draining both.

the end of that time, the hired man
found Lewis dead, with his head
crushed and his hands and feet bound.
The body was covered with burning
straw, saturated with coal oil.
The stranger is missing. 1t is be-

over business matters.
Lewis was a widower and lived alone.
The police have worked diligently ON

stranger answering his description can
be found.

The county commissioners at their
meeting yesterday fixed the rate Of In

This IL little higher than was an

rate was offered and that the money

will have to come from the banks.
They will now have to make applica-

would be the further action of each
bank.

BRING oRLANDER TO HOSPITAL
WouId.6e Suicide Now Refuses Food
and Characterization Serious.

Deputy Sheriff Charles Monroe and
DR.. Costello left this morning for Camp
No. l. on the Sweetwater ditch, where
Orlander. the would-be suicide Is To-
Gated. They took a stretcher along
and will bring the wounded man back
to the city. where he will be placed in
the hospital.
The latest reports from the camp are
not Favorable for the recovery Of Or
lander. He now refuses to eat or drink
and consequently is not gaining in
strength. and being weakened from the
loss of so much blood he is in dan
ger of death.
1t is thought that a change OF scene
will help remove the hallucination that
hangs over him, and with the restora-
ton of sane mind he will take nour-
ishment and rebuild the fatal drain
caused by the loss of blood.

THE REASON WHY.

, There are a number of reas-
; ons why the people like to read
; the Teller.
. The main and foremost rea-
, son is that the Teller prints the
? news. 1t doesn't print just what
, news 1t thinks best to print. but
, prints everything of public in
, terest. and suppresses nothing
, that the people want to know.
, The next reason Is that the
? people read the important news
, II pg7I isul sLoJ9q IslIoL sun W
, in ANY OTHER PAPER. The
, Teller has today's news today.
; Not yesterdays news today.
The third reason is that the
, Teller's subscription price is i'm
, the reach of all. Fifty cents for
, paper delivered to your door
, every night for a month is
, very small price. The offer the
, Teller now makes Is to deliver
, 1t to your door until March / for
, fifty cents.
, There are still some people in
, Lewiston who do not get the
, Teller. Most of them do not
, get il because the solicitor has
, not seen them yet. and thev do
, not take the trouble to call up
, and ask to have their name put
, on the list.
, Some do not take ii because
, they do not like its policy. These
, we do not want on our list.
, People who believe in suppress
, ing the news will never like the
, Teller.
