Such was Niles verdict today In the

For the NTH time she declared her
inability to recognize him. Other
people maintained that he was the
kimmel who disappeared from Niles
about thirteen years ago, and then
was given up as having been killed
either in st. Louis, Omaha or New
York
But what was considered remark
able was that the stranger failed to
give any clue that would absolutely
prove his identity among people who
said they knew him for thirty-five
years before his disappearance and
subsequent Imprisonment at Auburn.

The defects which Mrs. Kimmei
found in the mans claim on her as

BY nominating weak man or a man with a
vulnerable record for governor the republican party
will commit political suicide in New Mexico at the
coming election.
BY placing in the field ticket made up OF the
handy men of ring which has run New Mexico
with high hand for thirty years the re-
publican party in New Mexico will be signing ito
own death warrant
This is no idle warning 1t is based upon indsput-
able facts, and the republican party in New Mexico
has a serious situation to face.
Based upon the returns for the office of probate
judge in the various counties and taking into account
local conditions. the republican party at the election
in l9OS had an average majority Of approximately
$500. The probate judge is office that s seldom
scratched and tho showing thus made may be taken
a fair indication of the strength OF the party
throughout the state.
Since the 19OS election thousands of new citizens
have entered New Mexico and it must be conceded
that considerable proportion of them have been
democrats from the middle southwest and the gulf
states
This year it is quite probable that the voting
strength of the entire state will reach so, 900 And
the voters of New Mexico have learned to think for
themselves They have learned in this regard
in the past two three years than in twenty years
previously. The old subservence to bosses Is disap-
pearng before the independent sentiment which has
permeated both of the great parties Any politician
who has any claim to being weatherwlse can
the subtle change which is in progress.
No longer will the republicans be able to rally
support to their standard by the cry. "A vote for
the republican ticket is vote for statehood" state
hood has arrived and with 1t spirit Of nde-
pendence and responsibility among the people The
party ticket has been followed more or less blndly
by the Of voters in the past but this too is
changing The people commencing to look at
the man instead Of the label.
Under circumstances the republican party
win the first state election without close and de-
termined fight

NATIVE CHIEF BRINGS
 NEWS FROM DIOMEDES

Okboak the native chief of Cape Prince of Wales who is now visitor in Nome. having arrived here last Sat urday, tells a story of the extermina- . ton of tribe of natives which habi- tated small village, west of Cape North. he chieftian's report is pre- sGmably the truth, and is narrative of starvation and torture.
 As Okboak tells the story, a small colony of natives, numbering perhaps thirty have been struggling against starvation for the past few months in the little Siberian village. The ice in that part. d!d not break up this year. and it was impossible to kill seal, which was the principal diet of the Eskimos in that section. No other food was obtainable. and although the unfortunate natives endeavorcd to stave off the throes of death, they re- gently succumbed to the panic and now the village is depopulated.
 According to Okboak. two SibeI ian boys, who went a hunting for seal on the ice, off of East Cape, never re- turned from the trip They drfted far out to sea on an ice foe. and have not been seen or heard from since.
