Carolina are said to be in doubt whether
they are judges or not, and whether or not
the state has any supreme court since tie

four, and the point was raised whether the

There is a fight on as to who shall be
the man for the Colville Indian agency.
Senator Wilson. IN response to requests
from local Democrats. says a Washington
man. The admins tration, under the infiu-
ence which has already filled up territorial
and far Western states with Southerners,
says a man from Tennessee; all the infiu-
ence Is with the man from Tennessee: all
the reason is with some man from Wash
ington, and 1t is just as likely as not that

= -CROOKSTQN,sM Mimi, Oct. 26.-Coun-
ty Auditor Gleason and W. e. McKen-
zie, as county printer, were enjoined
today from printing or issuing the
county ballots containing the PROPOSE
tions to vote upon the proposed coun-
ties Of Columbia and Mills, two of the
eight whic hthe people of Polk county
have to vote upon at the coming cleo
ton. The result has caused consider
able excitement in the city and will
create more throughout the county at
large. Crookston and that portion of
Polk county which would remain under
the original name is fighting against
the divisions which will leave but a
small non-productve portion of the
county to her, and in this is being aid
ed by Fosston and Red Lake Falls,
who are opposed by Mcintosh and
Thief River Falls, rival county seat
sites. A. Kaiser, of Fosston, and J. D.
Marshall, of Red Lake Falls, asked for
the injunction. The county division
fight is paramount to all other ques-
tions in the campaign, and hundreds
of men and thousands of dollars are
being used to defeat the proposition.

Independence, Wis.
Special to the Globe.
WINONA, Mimi, Oct. ga tale of
terrible catastrophe. which nearly re-
suited in the cremation Of an entire
family, comes from the neighboring
Wisconsin village of independence
Between IL p. m. and midnight, last
night, the farm home Of Frank j.
Bautsch became enveloped in flames.
The family are almost sure the building
was set on fire. Mr.. and Mrs. Bautsch,
Mr.. Sybula, Mrs. Bautsch's father, and
the hired girl were all sound asleep
The home is some two miles from the
town, and so the flames were not dis
covered until too late. The family
were awakened by hearing a noise out
side. Mr. Bautsch looked out and saw
some figure in the dark, but could not
make out who it was 1t was but
shortly after this that the fire was dis
covered. 1t had gained terrible head
way and the entire family were obliged
to jump from the second story window
to save their lives. Mr.. and Mrs
Bautsch were badly burned and the
hired girl fatally. Mr.. Sybula was the
only one who escaped without injury.
Assistance came, and the flames were
hard fought and the greater portion Of
the house finally saved.
1t was discovered that f1ve-gallOn
can Of oil, belonging to the family, had
been emptied into the house, having
been first poured into bucket to make
it easier to throw. Thus it seems there
was a most dastardly attempt to ere
mate a whole family. Every effort will
be used to find the fiend.
