Voice Carries Beyond Court.
Col. Roosevelt's tones were very firm
and delivered with his usual empha sis.
When he began. with his voice trembling,
he said: Il wished once and for all and
curing my lifetime to thoroughly and
comprehensively deal with these SIAN
ders." He concluded his speech in such
a loud, impassioned tone that persons I'M
able to gain admission into the crowded
court room, and who were waiting
around the doors outside OF the court
house, heard him distinctly. There was
ring Of triumph in Col Roosevelt's
tones as he said: II have achieved my
purpose and | am content"
Mr.. Newett's statement was quite long
and gave in some detail the story of his
life. He said he had been opposed to
the denomination OF Col. Roosevelt in
Chicago and opposed him when he or
gantzed the Progressive movement. He
was aroused to anger against the colonel

A covered wagon pulled into

contained a man and his wife and
a half dozen little kids. The man
said he had had three failures
and that he was "all in" and waz
trying to get back to his old
home in Wisconsin. The black eye

could not be given some other
name.-WatertOwn News.
Now, wouldn't THAT get your
goat Of all the damning slurs
tnat were ever cast at the COu0-
try west Of the Missouri river
this little Watertown item takes
the cake. The country west Of

AS is usual in all towns he found
some irregularities which. he

is the custom Of merchants in
buying eggs without Gambling
them and in this manner fre-
Iuently buying eggs that are
spoiled. This is a violation of
law that the new inspector in

and if necessary to do so will
bring prosecutions for future in

to enforce the laws in relation to
his department without fear or

to associate with the likes of us.
Our part of the state is a sort of
illegitimate child of Nobody and
it ought to have no name-least-
wise it ought not to be known
as South Dakota. Only superior
places like Codington county
have right to that name. If we

Of the state east Of the Missouri

better than this country does in
an agricultural way. We might
make quite defense in our own
behalf if we wished to do so.
Time was when we could grow
eloquent over the milk COW and
the simple, though adequate,
prosperity in this pioneer coun-
try. Once we could have been
mean and revengeful enough to
dig up some Of the past history
of Codington county. We could
have grown reminiscent over the
covered wagons that went away
from that dear spot not 20 very

Judge John F. Hughes of Fort
Pierre spent all last week in
Deadwood presiding at the trial
OF murder case, in which Will
ham Yeager was the defendent,
charged with killing j. w. Ross,
a gambler, on August 18th. The
jury brought in IA verdict Of
manslaughter in the second de-
gree, and Judge Hughes gave
the defendent a sentence Of
four years the maximum for that
degree under the law. An ap-
peal will he taken.
In sentencing Yeager, Judge
Hughes censured the defendant
and declared that he was poorly
impressed with Yeager's defense
as it had not been explained why
two shots were fired at Ross from
different angles and the court
believed that the jury had dealt
most leniently with him. Judge
Hughes also asserted that he be
lieved it had been shown con
clusively that Yeager had un-
necessarily taken Ross life and
that he should suffer accordingly
The trial occupied over one
week and was one Of the longest
held in years and attracted more
attention. At least half of the
spectators throughout were wo-

A Strong Man s Views.

Hon. George Rice. who was
railroad commissioner for six
years, and one of the prominent
men of the state, writes letter
commenting on the Sioux Falls
harmony meeting platform. He
does not believe the platform
goes far enough. the only critic
ism of the democratic party made
is simply a reference to the pro-
posed tariff measure. In analyz-
ing the "harmony platform he
says it favors woman suffrage but
that proposition is now submitted
to the people He states further
that, "The platform declares for
national restrictions and regulat>
ions of the manufacture and sale
Of alcoholic liquors. That is GER
tainly important, as is also the
right of women to vote, but it is
not now, nor will it be before the
next presidential election. the
