This is criminally excuseless and in
defensible
The facts are that ex-Gov Steunen-
berg, of Idaho, was foully murdered
in manner that shocked the whole
community, and the deed was clearly
an act Of revenge upon q public official
for doing his duty at a critical time.
In what manner he did that duty,
whether he was guilty Of wrongdoine
does not enter into the case at all. If
he did wrong the courts were open to
punish him and right the wrong. There
could not be in any decent mans mind
any justification for the contrived MUIR
der by which he met his death.
A number OF men have been arrest
ed. charged with completely in the aw-
full crime. Whether they are guilty or
not remains to be determined. In ac-
cordance' with the spirit Of our insti-
tutfons the public press of the country
and the fair-minded people will assume
their innocence until they are proven
beyond doubt to be guilty. All the
evidence against them will be subject
ed TO the fiercest examination by their
attorneys. and the matter of their guilt
viii be settled by a jury Of IL respect
able citizens drawn from the body Of
the County in which the alleged offense
was committed. This Is the right, the
eminently American way of doing, and
1t is course OF procedure that every
man of sense and right feeling in the
whole country approves. He cannot
do otherwise. Whatever may have been
the failures and defects OF our judicial
system, 1t is the best system that hu-
man wisdom has SO far developed, and

DOCTORS IN CONTROVERSY
Different Opinions Given on Cooper,
Remarkable Success. i,,-
ST. LOUIS PHYSICIANS DISCUSS HIN
Statements by Well known Medical
men-some Are Inclined to Give
Him Credit, Others Call
His Work n Fad.

ST. LOUIS. Oct. 4.--The astonishing sale
Of Cooper's preparations In this city has
now reached such immense figures that the
medical fraternity at large have become
forced into open discussion of the man and
Lis preparations.
The physicians, as a whole, seem to be
divided with regard to the young mans
success in st. LONESOME being willing &c
credit him for what he has accomplished,
while others assert that the interest he has
aroused is but a passing fad which cannot
ast and which will die out as quickly as
I: has sprung up.
The opinion of these two factions is very
well voiced in the statement made recently
by two of a number OF physicians who
were interviewed on the subject.
DR.. ]. z. Carass, when questioned about
the matter. said II have not been be-
lever in proprietary preparations hereto
fore, nor can ] say that believe In them
) It present. But must admit that some
of the facts recently brought to my notice
concerning this man Cooper have gone far
towards removing the prejudice had
formed against him when the unheard OF
demand for the preparations first sprang up
in this city.
Numbers of my patients whom I have
treated for chronic live:, kidney and
stomach troubles have met me after TAX
ing Coopers remedies and have stated
positively that he has accomplished wonder
full results for them. ] notice particularly
in care OF stomach trouble that the man
has relieved several cases that were OF
years standing and proved very obstinate
in treatment.
Il am the last man on earth TO stand
in the way of anything that may prove
a., -
fessional prejudice and am inclined to
give Cooper and his prepa retions credit as
deserving to some extent the popular
demonstration that has been accorded them
, in this city"
Another well known physician who was
seen took the opposite view of the Cooper
mania" as he called II, which now has
this city in its grip. He said: II can only
, ljken the present state OF affairs to a Ger,
tain kind OF Authorization. For want of a
better name l might call 1t 'Cooper-mania'
The people of st. Louis seem to be firm
In the belief that this man Cooper has
health corked up in a bottle
Some OF them imagine that he has com.
pletely cured them OF various ills judging
from their statements. II Is beyond me
! TO say why the city has gone crazy over
the man. 1t may be safely put down. I
think. TO one OF the passing fads that so
often attack the American public.
Sooner or later the people are bouro
to regain their senses. and will then realize
that reputable physician lie the one to
whom their health had best be entrusted. f."
In the meantime Cooper meets several
thousand people daily. and only smileo
when statements OF the above character are
quoted TO him. His charitable work still
continues TO be very extensive.

(From a Staff Correspondent.O

LINCOLN, Oct. 4.-(Special 1.-The names
of the candidates for United States senator
must be printed on the official ballot this
year. Governor Mickey has so indicated in
his election proclamation issued today. Sec
rotary of State Galusha has so determined
and Deputy Attorney General w. T.
Thompson has so decided. The governor
relies on section 1913, Wheelers statute,
1906 which says the electors shall
by ballot express their preference
for United States senator. The con-
stltution of the state, in propositions
separately submitted and adopted, says that
the leg stature may provide that the electors
may by ballot express their preference for
some person for United States senator"
The legislature has done this in tse section
referred to. Another section of the election
laws says the form OF the ballot shall con-
form as nearly possible to the form
printed in the election laws. This printed
form contains a place for candidates for
the United States senate So 1t is thought
that the secretary of state can be
msndamused to place the names Of the
candidates on his certificate to county
clerks Norris Brown, republican; w. H.
Thompson, democrat; and ]. p. Roe,
socialist; have been certified by tn Fir respec-
tive state conventions being recon-
mended as such candidates and their names
will go on the ballot, II the county clerks
carry out the wishes OF the secretary OF
state. All parties concerned are willing to
comply with the law.
The state officers and congressman are
enumerated in the proclamation, the sena-
tors and representatives TO the legislature
and one judge OF the First judicial district.
In that district Judge John b. Raper of
Pawnee was appointed 10 succeed

been appointed. Judge Raper has been
