HERMIT KILLED
BY AN ASSASSIN
Belief Strong That Lonely Man Met
Death at Hands Of Murderers.

BELLINGHAM, Sept 14.-That Her
nit Smith, whose body was found near
his lonely cabin in the woods Just
across the skagit county line. near
Acme, a few days ago, was murdered
by an unknown assassin, who fired
the shot from ambush, is the belief of
the Skagit officers who today found
the BODY where it had fallen and made
an investigation.
No motive can be assigned for the
deed. as the mans pockets revealed
that he had $40 in gold left untouched
A cartridge was found in the bushes
a few rods from the cabin. This is the
clew that the authorities have to work
upon The body was buried near the
cabin, with only the tall frs as wit
nesses to the funeral rites 1t is the
belief of the officers that Smith had
an enemy.
That this latter theory is correct and
that the enemy at last sought him c'It
in his hiding place seems proved.

this end it quotes Ca.vo to the effect
that the acquisition of territory is
involved with effective occupation
followed by the commencement OF adj
ministr1tive occupation of continued
Industrial exploitation. The major

states. that the simple planting of the
flag is not sufficient 1t points out
that this doctrine was affirmed by
the international conference at Ber-

by the pope when he acted as med
