WAS MURDERED MAN
FROM ATAH COUNTY?
STRONG EVIDENCE POINTS TO
PROBABILITY THAT DEAD
MAN LIVED HERE
(Palouse Republic

Sundays newspaper dispatches
carried news of the finding of the
badly decomposed body of a man at
the mouth of Emerald creek, near
Fernwood in the st. Maries district,
by two fishermen. The body was so
decomposed as to be unrecognizable.
Marks on the head, coupled with the
fact that the pockets had been turned
inside out, indicated that the man had
been murdered. The piece of news
was of little interest locally until
two days later, when F. L. Daily, To-
the sheriff of Benewah county, en-
closing blood stained card contain
ing the name and address of August
Deerkop, we'll known young farmer
east of Palouse, and stating that the
card had been found on the body of
the dead man.
Mr.. Deerkop stated that the writ
ing was his, but he had no knowledge
of having given such card to any
one. He feared that the body might
be that of his brother, Fred, who had
left here some two weeks before.
Upon his return home, however, he
showed the card to Mrs. Deerkop and
she recalled that she had given such
a card to a man who stopped at the
Deerkop home last spring. looking
for his horses. which had got away
while he was driving from Farming
ton to his home, which he said was
seven miles south of Potlatch and
four miles east of Viola The man
had promised to let her know regard
ng some pasture for stock. Mr.. Deer
kop and Hugh Daily then drove to
that the body was not that of Fred
Deerkop, and an examination proved
that it was not. 1t is considered GER
tain, however, that it is the body of
5he man who visited the Deerkop
home last spring. Mrs. Deerkop took
the man in her car to house south
If Potlatch short distance, last
spring, where he was acquainted, and
could get horse to ride home. She
lid not ask the man his name, nor did
she know who lived in the house
where she left him.

PROHIBITIONISTS PLAN TO BURY
HIM TOO DEEP TO BE AGAIN
RESURRECTED

LINCOLN, Neb.-Calling the 18th
quadrennial convention of the Pro
hibition Party to order here this morn
ing Virgil G. Hinshaw, chairman OF
the prohibition national committee
told the delegates they had come to-
gether to select burial lot for John
Barleycorn." The other political par
ties, he said, "out of respect to John s
relatives have voted that he shall lie
| in state for another four years to be
viewed by the American people.
THE democratic platform is silent,
the republican platform is silent" the
! prohibition national chairman con-
tinued. Harding owns brewery
stock, he is not a prohibitionist at
heart. Cox is wet The future is be-
fore us, the campaign is upon us.
I'VE want to do the wisest thing,
the best thing for the prohibition
movement and for the country 1t was
our fervent wish that every political
party would this year fall in line with
the Constitution of the United States,
with the Congress Of the United
States with the Supreme court of the
United States, and recognize openly
and avowedly the settlement of this
question. The other parties have fail
ed. What shall we do?"
Turning to measures other than pro-
hibitiOn which the party had cham
pioned, Chairman Hinshaw said, CAS-
we assemble here for the thirteenth
time in 81 years we do SO with re-
alization that we have had part in
more than one battle and for the solu-
ton of more than one problem. While
we have been a party with an eye
single to the solution of one great
problem we have at the same time
aimed at the solution and reached the
solution of many problems.
"For example, we stood for wom-
an suffrage in 1872, which was forty
years before the Progressive party
was born and forty years before any
other party assumed the same posi-
ton. We advocated civil service re-
form the same year and thus preced-
ed the democrats by four years and
the republicans by twelve years. We
championed the direct election of U.
S. senators in 1872. The republican
party never championed that issue
and the democratic party not until
1900 or twenty-eight years there
after.
eve favored two-cent letter post
age in 1872 and thus beat every other
political party to that proposition by
the space of sixteen years. We stood
for international arbitration in 1876; !
the republican party did not advocate
it until 1904, or twenty-eight years
