states in this big country where snow
shoeing is popular away up In Michi-

the snow lies deep on the ground for

you from breaking through the top

Jasper Post Office Robbed

The Postoffice and store at
Jasper we're robbed som e
time Wednesday night and $24
in cash and $14 in stamps we're
taken besides few small articles
from the merchandise in the
store. When the loss was dis
covered, suspicion fell on a man
who had spent most of the pre-
vIous day there and a descrip-
ton forwarded to deputy sheriff
Graham here tailed with the APP
pearance of a man who walked
here from Jasper and stopped a
while in town the next morning.
He told young Davis at the sec
tion house that he had come from
Jasper and exhibited a lot of
stamps, and he had candy and
chewing gum in his pockets, be-
sides a new 38 calibre Colts re-
volver.
The description stated his
height about "5 feet, 8 inches,
light hair, and blue eyes, wearing
a gray duck coat and old over
Shoes" He left the coat and the
overshoes at the section house
here and boarded No. l without
buying ticket, but the conduct.

so the supposition is that he went
forward to the :'blind" and rode
there. Trains 1 and 2 met at
Kismet and the elevator man

J. H. Watt Leaves

Mr.. and Mrs. ]. H. Watt left
to-day for Long Beach, Califor-
MIA, where they will in the future
reside. The News regrets to
see these good people remove
from our midst. They have
been residents of Meade many
years and are numbered among
our most respected and influen-
tial families. Mr.. Watt is an en-
thusiastic Odd Fellow, wears a
veterans jewel, and has always
taken an active part in the af-
fairs of that order. He has con-
Quoted harness shop on West
Carthage avenue and enjoyed a
good patronage, owns his busi-
ness and residence property and
a farm in Meade County and by
honest and conscientious effort
has accumulated sufficiently of
this worlds goods to enable him
to take life little easier. The
change, it is hoped, will be bene-
fetal to his health, which of late
has not been the best.
The best wishes of The News
and host of friends go with Mr..
and Mrs. Watt to their new home
and we commend them to the
people with whom they will in
future associate as deserving of
the fullest confidence.

Owen T. Wright Dead

Owen II. Wright, an early
settler of Meade county, died at
the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Mamie DeWar in Dodge City,
Wednesday, December 81, aged
68 years and one month.
Mr.. Wright is we'll known to
our older residents and was at
one time an under-sheriff of this
county. He served in Co. G 14th
Indiana volunteers during the
Civil war, was flag bearer in the
Wilderness campaign, and was
captured and confined in Ander-
sonville and Florence prisons.
Escaping from the latter he Sc
creted himself with a band of
outlaws, but upon being stricken
with malarial fever was abandon
ed by them and finally rescued
by Sherman's forces. He never
fully recovered from the effects
that illness, and short time ago
he was taken to a sanitarium at
Hot Springs, South Dakota, by
R. W. Griggs. The climate did
not agree with him and he re-
turned to Kansas City, where
he resided with another daughter
for time before returning to
Dodge City. He was a highly
respected gentleman and his
death will be regretted by all.
Mr.. Griggs left on No. 81 this
morning to attend the funeral.

from the beginning and more
help will be secured as the busi-
ness demands.
That there is demand for the
products of the institution there
is no doubt. With F. G, Holder
man at the head the business
will be successful. He has won
a reputation far and wide for his
products, and besides being a
first class baker is an up-to-date,
successful businesg man.
The retail store will be dis
continued when the new order
goes into effect and the goods
will be handled by the grocery
stores which will make it very
convenient for the patrons.
The News is pleased to see
Mr.. Holderman make this move,
as we are satisfied it will work
to the good of himself and the
town.

The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1910-12-12
THE LIST ACCEPTED AS TRUE,

Evidence of the accuracy of The
Tribune's list of new polygamists is
accumulating; and the gratifying thing
about it is that this evidence comes
from the high ofliclaldom of the Nor
mon church.
We see in the "Church and Mission
airy News page of last Saturday IS is
sue of the Deseret News report of
the latest quarterly conference of the
Big Horn stake of Zion, located in Wyo-
ming. The report is sent in by Elder
". o. Bunting. From it we learn
that the distinguished visitors from
Salt Lake at that gathering were Fran
els NJ. Lyman, president of the quorum
of the twelve apostles, Apostle Hyrum
NJ Smith, and Elder Rulon S. Wells
of the presidency Of the seventies. Upon
instruction from the first presidency Of
the church, conveyed through Apostles
Lyman and Smith, Elder Byron Ses-
sions was removed from his position as
president of the Big Horn stake. His
counselors were also relieved of their
duties as such; but that is quite nat
ural. as the new stake president has
the right to select his own counselors,
and the old naturally step down with
their deposed chief There were also
several ward bishoprics removed in
cludipg Elder Haskell S. Jolley Of the
Lowell ward, together with his coun-
selors. Elders Sessions and Jolley have
been named and published by The Trib.
une as being new polygamists. and the
action herein reported is evidence of
the truth of our charges against them,
As to the other bishoprics removed
there is some conjecture. There are
those who think that their release was
due to the fact that they were in SYM
pathy with President Sessions, and
deemed his proposed removal TO be an
injustice But there are still others
who say that they also were new
polygamists. The latter may be true;
because. although we have printed the
names of two hundred and twenty OF
such offendersy we have all the time
admitted that we had not discovered
one in ten of them The other bishop.
released from official duty may bt
