MAY Be CHLLKOFF.
Unknown Man Found Near Williston
Thought May Be the Missing
Chilkoff.
Man Wanted for the Murder of Simon
Welch Near This City Last
Summer.
States Attorney Allen Wires From
Fargo for Further Particulars
of the Man. +, >.

Fargo, Sept. 2S.-Yesterday morn
ing the remains of man were found
in the Missouri river at Williston. The
body was found lying on it's back in a
pool of water about eight inches deep,
the feet out upon the bank. The stom-
ach and vital organs had been eaten
by wolves, the head had been carried
away to the bushes about forty rods,
and the jaw bone about the same dis
!tance in an opposite direction There
is a tooth missing in both the upper
and lower jaw. The man was evidently
between 80 and 40 years old and
weighed about ITO pounds. About a
month ago the man who found him
and companion saw a man lying
asleep ON the bank near the same place.
Then his coat was off. Now it is on.
An old knife is the only thing that
was found On the body. No marks OF
violence were found and no suspicion
is attached to anyone. The coEoner's S
inquest will be held tomorrow. The
body had evidently lain in its present
position for three to four, weeks.
States Attorney Allen of Bismarck
who is in the city, noticed the article
in the papers and bethought him of the
description of a man named Chilkoff
who is wanted at Bismarck on the
charge of having murdered a bachelor
farmer there last May Chilkoff is
described as having several teeth miss
ing and from the other particulars Mr..
Allen thinks that perhaps Chilkoff
committed suicide by drowning in the
river and that the remains found at
Williston are his. He has wired the
authorities at Willis'ton for further
particulars. ss

ing another term, and his withdrawal
has been quietly discussed between
himself and his friends for some time.
There was some doubt as to the best
course to pursue, and one proposition
was to let things stand as they are un-
til after the new term began, when, il
there were no Improvement in the gov
ernor's health, he could retire, to be
succeeded by Lieutenant Governor
White. The present action of the
governor and the committee simply
forestalls this action by a few months.
Mr.. Bartlett, the new candidate for
lieutenant governor, is a lawyer of 4
ability, and a man Of excellent stand
ing in the state. He is well fitted for
the position of presiding officer of the
senate, to fill which is the principal
duty Of the lieutenant governor
The general openion is that the
ticket is strengthened BY the change.
All of the candidates are now on the
| field, and in a position to do effective
| work, whereas before this change the
head of the state ticket was unable to,
take any part in the campaign.
| Fargo Call: Major Frank White
will, as the republican candidate for
governor, draw more votes from the
opposition party than any man whom
the committee could have selected. His
standing with the soldier. boys who
went to the Philippines with him bear
evidence. of his immense popularity
Dave Bartlett, the republican nominee
for lieutenant governor, was a happy
thought on the part of the state central
committee. He is one of the cleanest-
handed politicians in the state, thor
oughly equipped to fill the position
with credit to himself and the party.
Jamestown Alert: The resignation
of Governor Fancher was the principal
topic of conversation in Jamestown to-
| day. There were various views Of the
matter taken, some thinking that it
was not to the best interests of the re-
publican party and others believing
otherwise. It seems to be the gem
eral opinion that Mr.. Fancher will
make his residence from now on in
California and that his political career
in North Dakota is at an end.

THE STATE TICKET WILL BE A
FOTLR TIME WINNER

PROMINENT REPUBLICANS THINK
THE STATE TICKET WILL BE A
FOUR TIME WINNER.
Grand Forks, Sept. 2S.-A number
of the members Of the state committee
who were interviewed as to the effect
the change made would have upon the
vote this fall were Of the opinion that
the ticket would be materially
strengthened by all the way from 1,5OO
to 1900 votes. Secretary Jewell voiced
the sentiment of the entire committee
when he stated in. answer to a query
regarding the matter that he believed
placing Major White at the head of the
ticket under the existing conditions
would be great benefit to the ticket,
as Major White would be in position
to make a personal canvass of the
state and that was what a great many
people were clamoring for in all sec
tions of the state. With a veteran OF
the civil war as a candidate for presi-
dent a veteran of the Spanish war a
candidate. for vice president and A
hero of the Philippine war a candidate
for governor, North Dakota has COM
bination, Mr.. Jewell thinks, that can
not be beat by any state in the union.
Lieut. Gov. Devine, who is the can
dldate On the state ticket for superin-
.tendent of public instruction, believ es
that the ticket is materially strength
ened and other candidates who were
present, including Thos F. Marshall
of Dickey, candidate for congress-; D..
H. Mcmillan of Cavalier, candidate for
treasurer; 0. d. Comstock of Benson,
candidate for attorney general; =. M.
Devine Of LaiMoure, candidate for state
superintendent of public instruction;
P. F. Porter, secretary of state; c. J.
Lord, candidate for railroad commits
sioner, were of the opinion that all the
candidates on the ticket would be mu-
tually benefited by the change, on ac-
count OF the popularity of Major
White and the reputation for integrity
possessed by David Bartlett, who will
add strength to the ticket in ali Sec
tions of the state

SEQUEL TO AN ELOPEMENT5 AT
FARGo-CUPID SMILES AGAIN. #
Fargo, Sept 2S.-An exciting finish
{ to a somewhat sensational elopement
! was enacted in Fargo last night, and as
a result the erring husband returned
ITO his Wronged and abandoned wife. y
Last Monday Albert j. Wood left his
loving wife at Cass Lake, Mimi, il
company with Louise Moskoph, a
handsome and stylish dressmaker, and
came to Fargo by the way of Crooks
# ton. Wood is a blacksmith at Cass
Lake and last July welded the woman
who now bears his name. The mar
riage was an unhappy one and the hus-
band listened TO the alluring cooling Of
"a fascinating dressmaker, who inspired
in his susceptible heart an absorbing
passion. Louise Moskoph returned
the misguided affection with interest
AMI and the two soon decided to leave their
little world behind at Cass Lake and
I seek happiness In some strange, far-off
town where they might dwell unques-
toned by an inquisitive public. They
came to Fargo,and secured apartments
IN a. north side boarding house The
\ wronged wife traced them to Crooks
ton and then sl1specting that they had
come to this city telephoned the police
! department to locate the runaways and
keep them under sllrve veillance until she
arrived. S.5
That was yesterday forenoon, and
within a few hours Officer Korsmo had
the pair located. Mr.. Wood arrived
at 10: 80 last night and was shown to
the house by an officer. When the
deserted wife appeared on the scene
she made dash at the woman, who had
won her husband S love, and sought to
scratch her face. The woman ran out
the back door but was oVertaken BY an
officer and the two were taken down
to the station to discuss matters. It
was made plain to the renegade hus-
band that his duty lay in returning
with his wife, which he did. They
4 walked off arm in arm and Cupid
