Us Up. - - Last Friday near the close of i . district court Judge Westover called the editor to the stand to explain the editorial entitled . 'District Court" on Dec. 16. We print below a copy of his letter , in response : to which we wrote up an explanation and sub- mitted it to the court and -which he : required us to read in coqrfc. l Judge Westover didn't appear very willing to receive our ex- . planation as to our not referring tp him nor intending to criticise him and after considerable - ques- ! tioning in addition .to our offered article of about 20 pages , asked if we would be willing to publish a statement this week , saying that we didn't mean him."T e'\.e told it'elsewhere in this paper. We offered to print the whole twenty pages if he wished it but he didn't. ; 3. Di Scott was there to take down in short hand and took the whole proceeding . and the / full ex ' " planation. Here's Judge West- over's letter : , Mr. 1. / ill. Rice , . Editor Valentine Democrat ? , Valentine , Nebraska. ' ' Dear Sir : . Have just received your ; paper . ' published this rweeT : in which ' you have an . editorial making grave : and serious charges concerning the district court I observe that you either purposely or inadvert ently fail to make any sbecific harge in your editorial against any officer , but the general tenor and purport oi the article is to bring Discredit , and to reflect . up on the court and all of its officers , and is evidently written for the I of in wa T " , purpose some way attempt ing to affect the action of the dis- trict ; court in the discharge of some duty that will come before it the ; coming week. , Now in order to ; give you an opportunty to make all necessary preparations as . to . : ' iacts and proof , I want to'n'otify . : yo a by this letter that J will ex- pect you to appear before the dis ' trict court on some day next week to explain this editorial.

And if , any- , thing needs correction , I . atp , charged with the duty of seeing ' that it is corrected. Now , I -wip 1 l. I expect that you be prepared to furnish ; me the information upon which you ha\e based this editor- ial , and that you will furnish it to me publically in the , district ' room in the presence of everyone con- cerned or interested.

He was frozen stiff and had bruises about the head and limbs and his clothing bore evidence of having probably been struck by the passenger train which came in : frQm the east last night , or the one arriving ' 1 at three o'clock Tues- . day morning : . . . . ' , " When . found he was lying . near .he ' track in the..snow and evident- l.v was instantly killed. \ His pants were pushed up toward his'knees and his legs bare from his' knees dowu to shoes. An overshoe was on the right foot and a .moccasin i only on the left. Looked like he had been dragged . few feet or pushed along the ground . . . feet oremoat. : . Ernest ; Euns With and his wife came down , from Kilgore Monday and spent the day shopping in t own. Towards . \ ' ning Ernest elea.around some with another Indian whom he" knew and they took several drinks together. His wife was getting her things ready for the 7:30 : train and upon cora- I ing back to the hotel learned that he had gone , and as.she was unable to find him , and thinking he had tnken some train out of town , she went on the early . evening train to Kilgore. Reaching there she tele- . phoned back for him "and came ' down Tue'sday morning when she learned no one bad-seen him and began a search which resulted in finding him as above stated by one of . ' thfc section men. - -It is supposed that he may have become blinded' } by the snowstorm and failed to see the train ap proaching or that he was trying to get aboard while the train was . . moving. , Joha Hittle , one of the old pio- , neers ; of Cherry county , called I I Monday while in town to extend : his subscription another year in ! advance to THE DEMOCRAT. He : came . here - from Nodaway county , . Missouri , years ago and is along : in years but looks stout and . lealtby and faces the cold as well as the young men. J. W. Huff , formerly , of Keatsville , Mo. , and Wai Hamar were also in town and dropped in with Mr. Hittle to say hello. Wai told us how he was learning to milk and fool the cow , into believing' he was a calf these . cold days. , ' i . i .
