GrOsvenOr Makes q Guess.

Congressman Grosvenor OF Ohio,
was down at Davenport, Iowa, the
other day, and was asked his opinion
concerning Roosevelt's attitude on
the subject of another nomination for
the presidency. He said: II believe
President Roosevelt is sincere in his
intention not to be a candidate for
what he considers third term. OF
course the idea that a man cannot
take a third term as president be-
cause Of an unwritten law in this
country Is all mOonshine. An Ameri-
can citizen can accept as many presi-
dental terms as the people want him
to. If the people of the country wish
Roosevelt to run for another term,
and if the republican convention ig-
nores his refusal to be candidate
and nominates him, he cannot refuse
to accept the nomination. No man In
America is big enough to refuse such
an honor. No man has any right to
decline such a call from the people.
I will not be surprised to see the re-
publican national con vention nomin-
ate Roosevelt in spite Of himself.
This great tidal wave of popular dem
ocratic enthusiasm for Bryan appears
just now to be shaping things so as
to compel the denomination of Roose'
velt as a matter Of national self de.
fense."

1t Will Be LeBeau.

The Minneapolis and St. Louis
railroad, in Difference to the senti-
ments of the people residing in that
vicinity, has changed the name
of it's Missouri river terminal from
Scranton to LeBeau. The latter is
one of the old historic names Of Da-
kota, the fifth generation of the fam
lily of that name being now along the
Missouri in this state.
The first LeBeau to come into the
Dakota country, was Frederick, who
came with the upper Missouri outfit
of the American Fur Company in
1928. He was a Canadian, formerly
In the employ of the Northwestern,
and subsequently in the employ of
the Columbia Fur Company. In 1882,
when in charge of wintering post
at the mouth of Cherry creek on the
Cheyenne, he distinguished himself
by killing Francis Querrel, an en-
ploye. Learning of him, William
Laidlaw, burgeois of the post at Fort
Pierre, dispatched Colin Campbell to
bring LeBeau in. Campbell soon re-
turned with his prisoner in chains.
Laidlaw sent him down to St. Louis
to be dealt with, but he was released
upon plea of self defense. This is
the first recorded killing of white
man by a white man, in the Da-
kota country. The son of Frederick
LeBeau and many descendants live
upon the Moreau, within the Chey-
enne river observation-disclosures Da-

Death of w. l.. Dick.

Hot Springs Star: Warren l.. Dick
died at the Soldiers Home hospital
last Monday night, after a prolonged
illness of several months of kidney
trouble. The funeral services were
conducted at the Home Wednesday
by Rev. Smock, and were largely at
tended.
The family resided in town for over
a year, coming here from Canton, this
state, and he was quite we'll known
in town. They have been living on
their ranch east Of town for several
months, but Mr.. Dick was brought to
the Home several weeks ago, where
he could receive close attention and
care.
lie was 60 years of age, was a veter-
an of the civil war, had been vigor-
ous hard-wOrking farmer, and was
withal congenial, large-hearted
man. The family, consisting Of
wife and two children, have the SYM
pathy of their many friends in their
sorrow.
The veteran soldier and brother
Mason has passed away, passed into
that mystery Of mysteries from
whence none have returned.
Warren Dick came to Lincoln coun-
ty in the early 7O's and took home
stead near Worthing where ne re-
sided until about two years ago, when
he sold his old farm and removed to
Fall River county where he bought a
ranch. His health has been bad for
some time, and his friends are not
much surprised at the news of his
death. A host Of old friends in Lin
coin county extend their sympathy to
Mrs. Dick and children.

A Snake at Last.

Hans Berg. one of the rural route
mail carriers called at this Office Sat
urday evening, carrying a box which
was securely nailed.
"In this box" said Hans, "you will
find snake captured by Clarence
Oliver after a mighty struggle, dur
ing which he broke pitchfork and
other useful utensils before he got his
snakeship cornered. Mr.. Oliver is
not quite certain that this is the
snake that John Isakson saw, but he
thinks your snake stories are deserv-
ing tangible proof that no one has
been fooled as regards a live snake
out along Beaver Creek. Its track
was not as large as the one Mr.. Bren-
ner followed, but it's power for harm
is probably as great.
Mr.. Oliver is not particular wheth-
er you give it to museum or send
it to that Kimball editor who was
genius enough to find the snake that
returned a lost child to its home. A
man who is capable of such snake
worship should never be without one,
and he thinks the Kimball editor
should have the best snake In the
state.
The snake sent us by Mr.. Oliver
lost large scale or two from the left
side Of its hideous head during the
fight and it is in an ugly mood. The
young lady compositors in the Office
got so frightened at the great forked
tongue that they couldn't work,
hence we were compelled to ship the
snake to Kimball Monday, addressed
to Editor Tinan, who will no doubt
keep it to hunt lost children with.
In order that the snake should not
suffer for proper snake juice, Henry
Williams fastened brown jug
around it's neck filled with snakebite.

@slSOOseVelt Americanism." :"

From an interview in the Saturday
Evening Post: "For a man," said
Judge Gaynor, "fitly to fill a public
office his intelligence should be af-
tirmative, his honesty aggressive, his
vigilance sleepless. his courage with
out flaw. In brief"-this with a
smile that lighted up the grave face
like a torch-"he should be a Roose-
velt."
"You deem highly of President
Roosevelt?"
81 cannot conceive Of better man
for the place he occupies. His enc
mics call him cratic. l find him
steadfast to the pole of his purposes
as changeless as the north star. He
grasps his hour. He sees wrongs and
remedies them; he meets difficulties
and conquers them. When both
parties fell back frightened before
the frown of the railroads, he alone
was not afraid. Single handed he
took up arms against secret rebates.
In the face of the mightiest money
influences he proceeded. 1 cannot
tell too strongly my admiration of
President Roosevelt. He is filled
with the genius of Bunker Hill. No
age appreciates it's own great men.
The present would be struck with
wonder were it to gain glimpse of
those heights to which posterity will
lift up the name of Roosevelt"
"And you think he holds the conf
dence Of the public?"
'His popularity grows. No one
since the days of Washington-not
even Lincoln-was more in possession
of the loyal confidence of the COM
mon people,"
"And yet one hears criticism!''
eyes; one hears criticism. You
should not forget, however, in mea-
suring such criticism that one stridu-
lent grasshopper in the angel Of the
fence makes more noise than the
noble herd nearby"
"Do you know the president inti-
mately?"
II never met him in my life," said
Judge Gaynor simply. II know only
of what he does"
''And you are not even of the same
school of politicsr'
"There is nothing in a name, not
though it be a party name. i am Of
something better than the Roosevelt
school of politics. am Of the Roose-
velt school of Americanism.

Why Hearst is Strong.

The New York campaign revolves
around Hearst. If the republicans
discuss the denomination of Higgins
it is with the thought in mind that
Higgins can beat Hearst II they
discuss the nomination Of Hughes 1t
is because they believe Hearst would
beat Higgins. If the democrats talk
of a straight nomination it is in the
fear that without it Hearst will swal-
low the organ iZation. The whole
campaign revolves around Hearst,
his peronality, his chances, the effect
of his candidacy upon the fortunes OF
political machines.
The New York World almost weeps
as it contemplates Hearst arm in arm
with Murphy walking off with the
clothes of the democratic party,
which leads the Boston Herald to in
quire what the world has been doing
to permit Hearst to become so strong?
Why is Hearst strong? 1t is not his
personality which is weak and wat
cry. 1t is not his record in congress
for it is we'll nigh blank. 1t is not
his public utterances, so many of
which as can be actually traced to
him being thin and vapid. He has
no friends among the politicians and
to the people he is practically un-
known.
Hearst as an individual is nothing.
AS publisher he is something, but
it is a rallying point for discomfort
that he is everything. When he ran
for mayor it was the psychological
moment to smash bosses. Some
other man than Hearst with as much
radicalism in his composition could
have done as we'll. The people of
New York voted not for Hearst but
against Murphy. If they vote for
Hearst for governor it will be against
Odell, Platt and the Albany regency
in both the old parties.
Political discomfort will not be it
all. There will be discomfort with
the dominationof gas companies, in
surance companies and traction COM
panies to be voiced. The people of
New York are corporation-ridden and
they have come to know it. Hearst s
| papers have hammered in the truth
that New York gets less public ser
! vice for more public money per capita
than any city in the world. He has
proposed a remedy which is alluring
not only to the people who want re-
venge, but to politicians who want
place. Municipal ownership. This
issue has penetrated all of the big
and little cities of New York. 1t is
on tidal wave. It is untried and
therefore strong. 1t has not been
tested and it has not failed. Private
ownership has been tested and has
failed in everyt thing except the piline
up of dividends to be spent by the
riotous scions of great families. 1t is
no wonder the people of New York
rebel. It is no wonder they look
eagerly for Moses, and are ready tc
follow even such an uncertain one as
| Hearst. They are mad thru and
thru, and the bloated pashas of the
money kings who hope to fool then
again may be fooled themselves =
