The Aberdeen American will
certainly not gain many friends
among the newspaper fraternity IN
supporting Ira 0. Curtiss for con-
greSs. In an article favoring his
candidacy recently the American
sort of half apologized for its posi-
ton and sought to assure the
newspapers that this man CurtisS
saved the taxpayers a fabulou
sun by passing a bill in the last
legislature abolishing the publica-
ton of proposed new laws in the
official county papers Of the state.
The American hasn't a very en-
viable standing as a newspaper at
the best, and it's attempt to tell
the newspaper men Of the state
that their opposition to Curtiss is
not we'll founded will result in
state wide contempt for the cor
glOmerated mess Of bOiler-plate
and disconnected telegraph news
published in Aberdeen. The news
papers have done more for South
Dakota than any other one agency
and this man Curtiss will be very
forcibly impressed with their in
huence before the close Of the pri-
mary campaign.

though there was bare possibility
that he might decide after all to give

Wahle, realizing that Assistant DIS
trict Attorney Moss planned to dwell
at great length on the admitted char
acter of the four men on trial to up
hold his contention that there was no
doubt of their guilt, assailed Rose,
Weber and Shapiro in bitter terms.

was concerned his testimony had
been discredited by the story told by
Guard Maloney, Of the Tombs, that
he had overheard the chauffeur Of
the murder car tell caller that Web
Der and WALTON had croaked Rosen.
thai" In addition the attorney argued
that Shapiro, like Rose, Weber, Val
lon and Schepps, wanted to save his
own neck and realized that the dis
trict attorney would give him immun-
ity for the story that he had told on
the stand.
But it was Rose that came in for
the chief attention of the counsel for
the defense. He called him name
after name and emphasized again ana
again that he was always a gambler
and an admitted liar; that he had
as good reason as anyone else to kill
Rosenthal, and that 1t was only logr-
cal to believe that in planning the
murder he would want to decoy to the
scene acknowledged friends OF des-
perate gangster of the Jack Zelig type
in order to be in a position to shift
responsibility for the crime
The four gunner insisted that they
were confident of acquittal. They de
clared that they believed the jury
would prefer to believe them rather
than the four who had testirieo

sistent in court that the worst his
clients can expect is hung jury.

RIVER BARES ANCIENT CITY.
Prehistoric Pottery and Art Work Is
Found Near Needles, Cal.

Needles, Cal.-The Colorado river
is again rising, but no further reports
of damage have been received. In
Needles the Santa Fe railroad, how
ever, was taking no chances and work
on the big retaining wall, which it
was hoped would save the company's
shops and depot, was being rushed by
a large force of men.
Reports from Topock, opposite
Needles, on the Arizona side, tell OF
the recovery of several pieces of what
appeared to be ancient pottery and
works of art, at spot where the cur
rent had shifted and unearthed sup
posed ancient village, buried centuries
ago. A more thorough search OF the
place is as yet impossible because OF
the high water.
In the earlier stages of the flood re-
ports were brought here of the finding
of what is believed to be the ruins OF
some buried city, but old river men
uniformly denied these reports and
said the flotsam found in the river
was portions of buildings washed
down stream from Needles.
