The judicial Fight.

lhcre arc a good many things
in connection with the candidacy
of George w. Newton not worthy
of the good reputation that he
processes to bear. And it will
certainly not do to say that the
scurrilous articles against Judge
Winchester that appear in the
popocratic press are published on
the volition of the editors them
selves. That would be out of the
question. They are inspired
and paid for by Mr.. Newton.
In the 9Th judicial district a
fight is being made on Judge
Rose, and one of the chief argu-
ments against him is that he has
been reversed by the supreme
court more times than any other
judge. If fight were being made
on the other judges in the district,
doubtless the same argument
would be made. But these paid
newspapers say nothing as to the
number of times the supreme
court itself might be reversed if it
were not the court of last resort.
Our local contemporary the Re-
corder quotes from the supreme
court in the Cans osenbaum
case, and says that the expense ola
new trial falls on Stark county be-
cause the charge of the court was
not correct. Every body who
knows anything about the trial of
that. case knows very we'll that the
verdict would have been just the
same if no charge whatever had
been given. The jury arrived at
their verdict on the evidence, and
the charge was not such, taken as
a whole, as to drive the attention
of the Jury away from the testi-
mony. The supreme court sitting
in their office may think otherwise
1t so happens that the supreme
court of our state is composed of
men who never had the advantage
of being on the trial bench them
selves, and they are not as able to
Judge of the effect of charges on
juries as men would be who had
had a wider experience.
But what reason is there to be-
lieve that Mr.. Newton would be
better able to make the grooves
that the supreme court would fol.
low? MI. Newton has. since be-
ing in this state, filled one public
ofice-by appointment from q
pop governor-that of compiler
of the codes. Certainly his work
there, judging from the genera
"cussing" that can be heard as tt
the arrangement and indexing o:
the work, and the leaving out OF
his own motion important matter:
affecting the financial interests o
the state, will not warrant the be
lief that he would be a very grea
success in any other office.
Judge Winchester has proved t
be an able, honest, painstaking
accommodating and industriou
judge-always ready to work har'
to save the county expense, an
Stark county people are thorough
ly aware of the fact, and will sho,
their appreciation of him at tn
polls on November grid.

LAST week the Press stated
that John w. Currie had with
drawn from the legislative ticket
which was practically the case at
the time of making up the paper
Friday afternoon-but later
things came up that led Mr.. Cur
rie to withdraw his withdrawal
and his name was certified to by
the secretary of state. Mr. Cur
rte says he was laboring under a
misrepresentation when he with
drew and that, coupled with the
solicitation of many friends, led
to his decision to remain in the
race. However, a new phase
comes up this week. The Nc
Gillivray side has caused a tenn
porary injunction to be issued,
restraining the county auditors of
the district from placing the name
of John w. Currie on the official
ticket. The hearing is set for the
Goth, and will likely be before an
outside Judge, inasmuch as Hon.
w. H. Winchester is a candidate
in the district. The judge was
here Thursday and consulted both
sides and all seemed perfectly
satisfied with the proposition to
call in an outside Judge.

A LARGE sum Of money has been
subscribed to defeat the boundary
measures. The first move of the
cattlemen was to ask the supreme
court to issue a restraining order
preventing the county auditors
from putting the question on the
official ballot, but a dispatch to
the PRESS last evening stated that
the court had declined to act in
the matter, declaring it a case for
the district court. Now the cat
tlemen are attempting to do just
the thing that some of their Dick
inson friends have declared all
along they would not do.

SINCE the Pass nublished the

statement that c. F. Clark had
been found short in school dis
trict Id, he has been around de-
nying the facts and trying to
make it appear that it was only
a little tangle and that he had had
it all Strengthened. Evidently he
had expected that the tangle was
so complicated that no one would
be able to find out just what dis
position had been made of the
money and that he would slip his
neck out. The facts are these:
In June, 1896, Clark got posses
sion of $3.50. 28 of the public funds
of the old Springvale district
money that he had no business
with-and when called to account
for the same his first story was
that he had paid it out upon order;
when asked to produce the vouch-
ers he claimed that they had been
destroyed and he could not &C.
count for the money in any way
other than by a mere report. La
ter he put the school officers off
by telling them that there had
boen a double enumeration in this
district-made upon his order
and that he had returned the ex-
cess money to the state; he was
asked to produce the receipts but
could not. DISTRICT ID, a part of
the original Springvale district
No. 6, took legal action a few
weeks since against Clark and
called him to account before the
state Office of public instruction
in Bismarck. He was found short,
and before the court of this judi
cial district. a few days later, il
was arranged and Clark agreed to
pay district Id its lawful share q
the S18o.28-by giving an orde,
on his November salary. A
letter dated the 18th of this month
shows that Clark has moi
refunded any money to the state
|. treasurer or to the office of pub
lie instruction, so that he mus
still be owing a large sun to thu
, state. What we have stated here
i is a matter of public record ane
anyone can investigate for him
|self.

The economic collapse Of Cuba IS re-
vealed by a few salient figures. Sugar
is the chief article OF export, and 60 per
cent Of the population live on its pro
duction. In 1894 (bcforc the rcbcllion)
the total output Of sugar was 1850, coo
tons. This season, up to April 30, only
10, 600 tons have been manufactured,
and "the total output for the year is
estimated at less than 200, 900 tons, ."
with good luck. Tobacco, the second
great staple of Cuban trade, is in a
worse plight than sugar The normal
production is 400, 600 bales. This year
Will see only 90, 600 bales III the mar
ket. " In few weeks the cigar factories
in Havana viii close their doors, which
will throw 80, 600 men and women out
of work. The value of the exports from
Cuba is calculated to have fallen in one
year from e12, 900, 900 to 60, coo, GOO.

GAMES YOUNG INDIANS PLAY.
Chugga and Tabahortty Are Among Their
Favorite Pastimes.

Chugga and Tabahortty Are Among Their
Favorite Pastimes.
The first game an Indian boy learns
IS chugga. Any number of boys line up
and crouch down with their knees bent.
The boy on the end shouts "Chuggar'
and all start off together. The one who
goes fastest and farthest wins the game.
The squatting position of the body must
be maintained throughout. Walking
chugga is very difficult, as it is Il great
strain Oh the muscles Of the back and
legs. Hopping chupga is still more diff
cult. The stopping position is the same,
but only ono foot cam be used. Even an
expert can rarely hop chugga for 100
feet without stopping or stumbling.
After chuEg2 the Indian boy learns
pawwit. This game requires all the
speed and accuracy at his command.
The posts, with crossbar between, like
a football goal, are erected III the open
prairie The boys cut lanccs of hickory
poles about six feet long and scrape
them smooth. Great care is taken to
have these poles well balanced and
straight. About 30 feet III front Of the
goal line is drawn. The same distance
on the other side circle is marked on
the ground. The boys take turn in ad-
vancing to the scratch line and throw
ing their lances. The pole must pass
over the goal posts, while the boy runs
forward and catches it within the circle
before it alights. If he fails to catch it
or If it alights outside the circle, he
loses throw. Each successful catch
counts one point An expert pawwit
player will throw a five foot pole SO
feet into ring five feet in diameter
and catch it four times out of five.
The most popular game in which both
boys and girls play is called tabahortty.
1t is good deal like the game called
Farmer Brown, which white girls and
boys play together. An Indian boy
stands with folded arms as "a great chief
or warrior. The other players move
around him in circle, chanting and
turning around. A girl, then selected,
moves into the circle and kneels at his
feet.
Then the players change their direc-
ton, while another is selected as pa
pON7N' A-4l9 pay u 10 usually Il sludll
boy, who lies fiat ON his back at the
girl S side. Then Il hoy is called in as a
dog He enters, barking and swapping.
a girl follows as ii cat, mewing. A coy
ote, Il white wolf, bear, an OWL a
pony, medicine man and many other
characters are called into the ring until
the singers are exhausted. AT each call
the direction of the circlers is changed.
Then at a word from the boy chief
the players form Il circle again, each
impersOnating the character he or she
was called into the ring to assume The
singing, which has hitherto been low
and even, becomes high and irregular.
1t continues until the boy imporsonating
the chief steps into the ring again and
dlsmisscs the players one 10y one. When
none is left the boy cries 'Tabahorttyl"
which ends the game. New York Re
