evening and this forenoon three Of
the grand Jurors have said to me
that the evidence in this case was as
complete as In any case before them
at this term, and that as soon as the
case had been submitted to them a
couple of the jurors began talking
politics and said that this case was
a political scheme"
The chief added that he did not
believe that because Of Mr.. Craw-
ford's social and political standing
the cas- ought to be allowed to drop.
1t was again brought up before the
session OF the grand jury at Dead
wood, and "no bill'' Was returned by
a vote of 10 to /. "There is no
question:" writes Chief McEniry,
Deadwood is SIMPLY INDICA-
TIVE OF THE POLITICAL SYM
PATHIES OF THE JURY"
Later an effort was made by Mr..
Crawford to have Chief McEniry re-
moved, and instead OF that Mr.. Craw-
ford got back a curt letter saying
that the chief was one OF the best
men In the service, aud also inn
mediately thereafter, McEnlry was
PROMOTED.
The people of South Dakota owe
it to themselves to learn all of the
facts about this case. They can get
those facts out OF the Congressional
Record of March l8, 1907, and every
voter should get a copy of that record
and read it before he votes to send
a man like Mr.. era wford to the sem
ate of the United States. To elect
such a mar to the senate with this
charge resting over him would be an
indelible stain upon the state.

The Aberdeen American asks
"When was it that the Smoot case
became an issue in the senatorial
campaign In South Dakota?" SimLle
enough. The Sioux Falls Press has
been running "a series of articles
against Senator Kittredge for his
prominence In that case. The in
surgents themselves first brought out
the fact that Senator Kittredge
voted against the seating Of the
Mormon Smoot, and that Senator
Gamble stood by his party vote and
voted 10 retain a polygamist in the

Of the home on this country. The
American further asks: "When was
it that the Panama canal became an
issue in the campaiQn?" The
Panama canal proposition was in
jected In the campaign when Cover
nor Crawford and the insurgent
faction. in general made an attack
on Senator Kittredge because he had
an opinion of his own concerning the
construction of the canal and was
not afraid to stand by it for which
he has been roundly censured for not
being In line with the policy of the
president. Since that time, however,
the indicate ns point to the fact that
the senator's contentious were not
far from right. Again the American
wants to know "Wben did the
Bristol case become a part of the
campaign" This likewise was
brought out by the insurgent faction
~as..so,0ething with which to try and
prejudice the minds of the people
against Senator Kittredge, and the
Sioux Falls Press kept it continually
before its readers by running a series
of articles trying to make out the
allegation that Senator Kittredge

protect the land g~rafters, and at the
same time the insurgents charged

One Of the pastimes that Dick
Richards, Of Huron, has is the form
ing Of leagues to fit the embarrassing
situation which confronts the insur-
gent republicans OF this state. MI.
Richards is reputed to be worth
something near a half million dollars
and he is said to be the financial
hacker of Coe /. Crawford in his
candidacy for the United States
senate. 1t is one of the main things
for Dick Richards 70 organize
leagues, and he has from four to SIX
rather unhealthy ones in the state.
Just now Mr.. Richards is makinp a
great demonstration over the Scan
dinavian Republican League, which
has issued some redhot resolutions,
winding up with a strong endorse
ment for Governor Crawford for the
senate The membership of the
Scandinavian Republican League
numbers all the way from 10 to Is, 600
and Dick represents 1T to be an
enthusiastic body of men who are
anxious to see the governor elected.
From all reports there are probably
fifty members of the league who
recognize themselves as such, and
the balance Dick has secured by
absorption. He don't know where
they are located but it is supposed
shat they are In South Dakota. The
Dick has a primary league, the head
quarters of which are not apparent,
but there was an occasion for some-
thing Of this character to stifen up
the insurgents s. one was organized.
This primary league, however. does
not seem to he in good standing with
the insureent wing, judging from
the fact that the primary law is
being laid on the shelf as much as
possible by the insurgents. The high
sounding na,ne that Mr.. Richards
gives his leagues ard the resolutions
which emanate tllereform would lead
one to believe that the whole state
was %tnmb]ing Owe to get behind the
Crawford moyement-but for the
fact that 1t has become known that
the movements are of such a char

DON'T WANT R ONE.

The insurgents allege that the first
primary election is not a particularly
important one and that 1t does not
make any difference ii the slalwarts
do carry it. Such is their talk at
the present time. Two or three
months ago, when the situation
looked rosy and bright for the in
surRents they felt that they had the
March convention sinohed, and that
Senator Kittredge would be beaten
before he fairly got at11ted in the
race. Well, there issashony ktting
up and taking notice Of the onward
increment Of the stavlaIt iactton at
the present time, for the Kfttrrdpe
movement has swept over the state
and put the insurgents to rout.
Now, IN the face Of the stalwart
success, they alleae that they did not
expect to carry the March primaries,
and claim to believe thai there is
nothing to the convention. That's
the case Of the fellow who couldn't
get what be wanted, and. a4conse.

lance 10 it. II the Insurgents we're
able to carry the March state con-
vention, what would they do to the
candidacy of Governor CrawfordY
Why they would wind up that
convention With a resolution endors-
ing the governor for the senate. Sure
they would and there Is no denying
the fact.
II the insurgents were not anxious
to carry their success 10 the first
convention then Governor Crawford
is wasting whole lot of ammunition
and a great deal more time travelling
over the state III his own interests
and calling on all the state appointees
to get out and hustle for delegates,
as was the case in this county when
Frank Craft, the state fire marshall,
and j. T.. Wingheld. the deputy
state examiner, were In Mitchell for
the purpose of helping out the insur.
gent leaders in getting some Delegates
to go on the ticket. Mir. Craft was
here a week and Mt. Wingtield put
10 several davs rounding up some in
%surgenls. The state house, too, is said
to be cleaned out OF the officers who
were also sent in to the field to
Skirmish for the governor and the
insurgent cause. Doesn't the case
look desperate. and isn't it fair to
presume that with all this array of
talent working in the vineyard of
the governor that lie is anxious to
yet in control OF the first convention?
But the talk that there is now
nothing to be gained bv the March
convention indicates thai tine insur-
gents ave practically thrown up the
sponse and cannot hope TO win.

LAND FRAUD CASE.

was twice brought against Coe /.
Crawford before the federal grand
jury, the governor twice narrowly
escaping Indictment for having hired
boys, some of them hardly Of age, to

adjoining the property OF the Craw-
ford Cattle ranch, in order that the
cattle company could get the land for
use, and in order that it might
keep away from these lands some
Russians who wanted it and who
were alluded to by the governor as
undesirable n%eigbbors."
The facts have been printed time

FOREST BENEFITS
SHOWN IN ARIZONA
What Management by Uncle
Sam Has Accomplished
in the Territory,
Especial to the Review

WASHINGTON. July IA strik-
ing Illustration of the benefits of for
est management by Uncle Sam has
just been reported from southern Ari-
IONA. In this region fuel Of any kind
is exceedingly scarce and dshcult to
get. 1t Is supplied chiefly by Next
cans, who go up into the mountains
with burros. cut the fuel from juniper
and oak trees, and then take it out
in small loads on the burros.
In the past the Tanchers living at
the mouths of die canyons in the
Dragon mountains, have prevented
the MeXicans from reaching the most
/ accessible ti7lbsr. and perhaps just
| ~ so. because promiscuous cutting
would professionally have damaged
! the watershed end unsteadied the flow
of water in these canyons, on which
the rancners we're dependent for irrl.
cation. Since the establishment Of
the national forest, however, the cut.
ting of wood has been carefully su
lpervised, and only dead and mature
ltrees, the removal of which would
mot injure the watershed nave been
lcut
Careful cutting of this kind has
been allowed ia the areas which here
ltofore have been closed to use. and
as result, the price of wood has
ACTUALLY been reduced in the small
towns around the national forests
For instance, In Pearce. an import
liant mining town nine miles from tds
forest, tbe price Of wood previous u
the creation of the national forest
was IS per cord. 1t Is now only So
land this decrease can be wholly at
ltributed TO the improved administra
ton OF the forest.

PREHISTORIC CURIOS
FOUND BY CHANCE
Discovered By a MexiaCn While
Digging an Irrigation Ditch
Near Phoenix.

PHOENIX, July 11.-There is no
limit to what a farmer may hope to
do in Arizona. If he don'l get rich
raising farm products he is liable any
minute to dig up valuables of the
most unexpected kind and in the most
unexpected places. This is due 20 the
fact that the present civilization here
is built on the ruins of former civili-
zation of which little is known and
anybody may any day stumble into
the gold laden vaults of the first ma
tionaI bank of prehistoric Salt river
valley.
Recently 2 Mexican named Gutter
rez brought to the notice OF Col. c. w
tombstone in this city an aggregation
of relics that he ran across while dig
ging a ditch. His idea is to sell them
and buy more frijoles to eat while he
Is digging more ditch. He said that
in his ditch digging enterprise across
the river south of Phoenix he broke
into what seemed to be sort of cave.
il is likely it was a protected room OF
some prehistoric building, buried by
the debris of ages. Anyhow the relics
were unlike most of the curios of sim
liar sort in that they were clean and
bore little evidence of contact with
the dirt and water.
Among them are three stone axes,
one being almost perfect Among the
mott interesting pieces are two little
pieces of pottery shaped somewhat
like a spoon or ladle, as though they
might have been made for drinking
cups or to dip liquids from larger YES
sells. These have been seen frequent
ly among native tribes elsewhere but
are TO say the least rare among the
curios unearthed in these parts.
Another find is perfect slate, with
a frame carved of the same material.
The evidence is undeniable that it was
used for the purpose OF a slate just
as the children of these days use them.
A piece of softer slate that might well
have been used as a pencil was also
found The slate was about 312x5 in
ches in size.
Then there is a piece of flint rock
of fine texture and of very light color
about four inches in diameter. circu-
lar and with concave sides about two
inches thick in the center. What its
use may have been is entirely con-
jectural as also is that of a half dozen
other pieces of different rock forma-
ton.

AN UNKNOWN REGION
: OUTSIDE OF PHOENIX
The Thriving Yaqui Indian VII
Iage Of Guadalupe South
of Tempe,

PHOENIX. July 11-Deputy Sheriff
Olea returned this week from an I'M
known country almost within bow
shot of Phoenix. He was at the Yaqui
village of Guadalupe of which com
paratively little has been heard ex-
cept by the priests and the Mexican
merchants who make regular monthly
or weekly calls at all the Yaqm viii
lagos along the river.
The deputy sheriff went to Guade-
lupe in search of Dimitrio Gotta who
was wanted for the theft of a horse
here belonging to Mexican. Gotta on
the way home sold the horse, saddle,
Bride and a pair OF spurs to man
in Tempe for SO. The spurs alone
were worth great deal more than
that and the horse was easily worth
$50.
Gotta who is not Yaqui, but Mayo
Indian, was found working near Iby.
Guadalupe is a village of about 200
inhabitants. 1t is presided over by a
chief or patriarch, Miguel Cupis. whose
word is law in all business or social
transactions. There is cemetery and
church, whose white steeple greets
the eye from a long distance. There
is a. school house under way. The
people are ali industrious and clean
in their habits. Most of them work
in the neighborhood of the village.
The deputy sheriff learned that
great many Yaquis have come in from
Mexico within the last few months to
escape the wars which their tribe has
been carrying on with the Mexican
government for years. For the first
time the Indians are hopeless of the
outcome of the struggle and are will.
ling to give up.
It has not been long since the Yaqui
was regarded as brave and desperate
fighter. Many believed that he was
more than match for an equal num-
Der of Mexican soldiers, but that is
so no longer.
A Yaqui who had recently come from
Mexico told the deputy sheriff why his
tribe had been so brave. The Indians
fought desperately because they be.
lieved they had so little at stake. He
said that in times gone by, when an
instruction was started against the
Mexicans, runners from the seat of
the disturbance would make a circuit
of the peaceful villages for recruits.
They were aided by a chief or an eX-
chief, who told the villagers that it
made no difference whether they were
killed in battle or not. They would
be resurrected on the next San Jose's
day Instantly, the villages would be
deserted of all the fighting men, some
of whom were attracted, by an indy
ing hostility to the MexicaGs and the
others, by the novelty of being dead
a while.
1t has finally dawned upon surviI
yors of these battles that many San
Jose days have passed since some of
their comrades We're killed and they
have not been resuTrected yet.
