STABBED TO KILL.
Chinese Gamblers Row Ends With
Cutting.
An Tai Receives Serious Cuts About the
Hsad-His Assailant Not
Yet Captured.

A serious stabbing ARRAY occur
red last evening, in the vicinity of
Fowler's yard. AS a result Wing
Tai is being hunted by the police
and All Tai is in the hospital.
The embroglio arose in a party
of Chinese gamblers. The game
broke up and the men went into
the alley, where Wing Tai and All
Tai got into a dispute. Wing Tai,
whose temper was somewhat the
worse for a liberal supply of saki.
drew a dirk and stabbed All Tai
about the head. Three cuts were
made; one on the face, another on
top of the head and the third on
the neck, the knife striking the
spinal column. At first it was
feared that the spine had been in
jured.
All Tau attempted to stop the
row and received a cut across the
hand. Wing Tai, finding it getting
too hot for him, escaped just as the
police arrived, leaving his hat,
however, by which he is identified
as the man who did the cutting.
The injured Chinaman was taken
to the hospital and his wounds
dressed. His injuries are not re-
garded as particularly serious.
Capt. Parker Immediately, on be-
ing informed of the affair, set out
in pursuit of the would-be MUIR
derer, but up to a late hour last
night had not captured the culprit.

Having been requested BY my
supporters in the present campaign to
make Il statement in regard to the asssr.
ton made BY some that if elected to the
Office Of superintendent l would rob the
''dear people" and bankrupt the county
by visiting schools and charging mile
age for the same, l submit the following
as requested.
I should rob" the people to the
extent of the fixed salary of $500 which
is now paid, and since the law demands
that ut least one official visit to each
school be made during the school year,
l should also "reb" them Of the pileage
for ONE such visit to each school during
the school year which would probably
amount to $75 per year. In return for
the above l should expect te give my
time, or so much of 1t as could be EN-.
ployed in the interests of the schools Of
the county. All visits other than the
one official visit to be at my expense.

SOME of our democratic and
populist brethren of the press seem
to have hard time trying to digest
that pill administered by the republi
can state central committee-the
bouncing of Jud La Moure out of the
councils of the party. The action
Of the committee was very COM
mendable and the opposition party
realize it only too we'll. The bounc
ing OF this WHY chief of the Pembinas
will draw back hundreds of votes to
the republican party and our op-
position friends can see very plainly
that they will surely lose their grip
in this state next iall. Now let the
people wash their hands off the other
seven renegades and the party will
start out on the campaign with a
reasonable show OF success.
