NORTH DAKOTA FACTION FEUD
Democrats and POpulists May Cap
ture the State, Owing TO Re-
publican yyranrIinr

GRAND FORKS, ". D., Feb. IA
North Dakota is about to enter upon
a political campaign in which the prin-
clpal prize is a seat in the United
states senate, the term of Senator
Roach expiring on March 4, 1899. The
election of Mr.. Roach, a Democrat, in
a Republican state five years ago was
ar event of greater Importance than
the election of United States senator
usually is, and unless there is a mark
ed change in North Dakota politics
within the next few months the cam
paign of 1898 is likely to be a repeti-
party of this state is divided, as it was
then, and the feeling which existed
between the two factions at that time
was as brOtherly love compared to that
which exists now. The branch of the
party which is now in power, which
controls the state administration and
federal patronage, is headed oStensibly
by Senator HansbrOugh, but really by
Alexander McKe 'zie, formerly Of Bis
marck but now an operator on Wall
street, New York. The candidate Of
this faction for the senate is E. G.
Cooper, chairman of the state central
committee. Personally Mr.. Cooper IS
a popular man, but he will be bitterly
opposed by the anti-McKenzie element
because of his connection with the
gang"
Congressman Johnson is a candidate
for Ghe position as the representative
of the other faction, and between him
and Senator Hansbrough there is a
breach that will be very difficult to
repair. Under these circumstances the
Democrats and Populists may be able
to capture the state again.

Mary Luxton Frustrated.

GRAND FORKS, n. D.. Feb. 14.-Word
comes from Hope that Mary Luxton. who
fatally shot her lover, ole Halverson, al
Inkster last fall, and who was subsequent
" acquitted. has been very i'll. So serious
was her condition that for some time her life
was despaired of. Her condition since her
trial has amply sustained the decision of the
jury that, at the time the terrible deed was
committed. the girl was deranged, and was
irresponsible for her acts. She was taken
home to Hope by her sister, Mrs Morgan,
with whom she has since remained. One OF
the pathetic features Of the case is the fact
that, during her illness, she has been nursed
and carefully waited on by Mrs. Halverson,
the mother of her dead lover. 1t is said that
as soon as Mary is able to stand the trip she
and it is hoped that she may yet entirely re-
cover from the shock to which she has been

State Reform School for North Da-
/, N Cannot he Built.

BISMARCK, Feb. 1.-THE state reform
school board has discovered that it will be
difficult for them to negotiate a loan with
which to secure funds to build the institu
ton. The trustees held recent meeting at
NIandan and discussed the matter. The law
which was supposed to make provision for
the building Of the institution and the provi-
sion of funds was found TO be defective in
that it provides only for the issuance of
certificates of Indebtedness, bearing interest
at per cent, and guaranteed by 10000 acres
can be issued under the law and the state
does not. as in the case of the state insane
asylum. guarantee the payment of interest.
All interest and principal must be paid from
the income of the land of the institution
which is a problematical amount. The certifi-
Gates of Indebtedness would not be much
sought by investors, and unless interested
parties can be induced to take up the Ger
tifcates. when they are issued. and trust to
the income from the lands to pay interest
and principal. no institution can be erected
until the state makes further provision.

Compromise Law n Failure.

CHAMBERLAIN, s. D., Feb. 14.-One law
that the next state legislature will doubtless
be asked to repeal is the law authorizing a
compromise Of delinquent taxes. 1t was be-
the benefit and profit of many towns and
counties. 1t has, however been given a fair
trial in several localities in the state, and
change in sentiment regarding it, as the
damage resulting from its workings more
than equal the benefits, and in many cases,
1t is found to operate directly opposite OF
what was Intended and expected.
