Mayor w. II. Brown. of Devils Lake,
whose real estate advertising has made
him known to every reader in the state,
is going to Chicago to live and will run
his Devils Lake land business as well, in
connection with the Chicago office
That is what Mr.. Brown says, but every
newspaper fellow knows what the real
reason Of the removal is:-he bought
the Free Press some few months ago
and now he's going to Chicago. No
man can serve two nasters-when one
of them is a newspaper. One result is
that Editor J. w. Gould will hereafter
run the paper with his own hand on the
helm, and Mr.. Brown will be able to at
tend to his real estate business, and we
congratulate both of them-as to the
newspaper part-but are not sure that
anybody ought 10 be congratulated fol
moving to Chicago from Devils Lake.

HARVEST.

A trip to Hamilton on Friday showed
the wheat practically all dead ripe and al
least one half still standing. Some rain
fell Saturday afternoon, pleasant Sunday
and Monday, little rain again Tuesday
evening and heavy downpour on Tues
day night and Wednesday morning,
pleasant again Thursday. Advices from
Drayton and Hamilton are that much
heavier showers fell there than here. OF
course with such weather cutting has
been delayed, and threshing, which
would have been quite general by now
is not begun except in exceptional
cases. The western part Of the county
is later this season that the eastern part
Much doubt is expressed as to the yield.
Undoubtedly much of the grain though
grown on heavy straw will be shrunken
and the heads not we'll filled. Farmers
who have finished cutting are turning
around and helping their less fortunate
neighbors and with good weather most
of the wheat will be cut by Saturday
night and threshing will be general by
that time.

The political talk among newspapers
in this off year is largely "a cracking of
thorns under pot" !" in factit's less, only
fire of newspapers which is more
ephemeral than heating. The object is
generally to set the pot boiling, ever so
briefly, and mostly in hopes that the
bottom may come to the top. Summer
before-nominations' are annual not BIZ
ennial vegetables, and lisa clear waste
of seed. to plant them SO often, unless
perhaps, it is intended to have the seed
wasted. Seeds which gerninate on
summer fallow ground come to an un-
timely end, and this is the year Of
political summer fallow.

Last Saturday night about ten O'Clock
the town was suddenly aroused by the
cry of FIRE" Nearly everybody rushed
out to find out what was burning, and
upon looking around it became evident
that the little "sightless pig" located
about quarter Of mile northwest ol
town, was burning. When people saw
what was really going on many returned
to their domestic bunks' but some Of
the more enterprising went out to the
scene of the confagration and upon ar.
irving there found an army of women and
girls, between twenty and thirty strong,
armed with hatchets and carrying
kerosene cans. This band of women
had organized to rid the neighborhood
of a nuisance and had come to the con-
clusion that burning the said nuisance
was about the easiest and most effective
way. Accordingly they had carried their
plans into execution about ten o'clock
Saturday night, smashing the "pig" with
their hatchets, pouring kerosene over
the wreck and then setting fire to it.
The women are to be commended on
their spirit, and public opinion seems to
be unanimously on their side in the af-
fair.-Edlnburgh Tribune.

"The Independent" is the name of the
new paper published at Hamilton by
Charles F. Chase and the first issue is at

politically to be true to its name and will
not affiliate with either Of the existing
parties. The editorials show a vigorous
hand and the news columns are full and
well written. geographically the paper
is neat, and altogether the sheet shows
ample proof that Editor Chase has been

s Speaking of the governorship, while
allowing for the great honor and per-
quisites attached to that Office, it always
seemed to us that the chief duty required
sof the state executive, was to perform
the miracle of the loaves and fishes over
again, and as the governor is usually but
human, the bulk Of the crowd have to
go hungry. And yet, there are lots OF
men ready every time to attempt the job.

coming to quick conclusion, and did
much to clear up the fog and argument
ofthe counsel.
Judge Kneeshaw, unlike most judges
In such cases. went into the evidence at
considerable length, and while carefully
abstaining from giving his personal
opinion, yet he put the evidence in such
logical form, showing for what each side
contended and the proof offered to sup
port such contentious, and reduced the
abstruse, technical medical and expert
testimony into such clear terms, that the
task of the jury was comparatively easy
on going into their retirement. The
judges charge was a document of AZ
closely written pages, and showed that
it must have occupied many days of
special study in legal and medical juris-
prudence and many hours of prepara-
ton.
We wish that judges would do this
more often. While the charge to the
jury generally sums up the issues, aud
gives the jury the law points, very rarely
do the judges touch upon the evidence
to such an extent that it clears up the
case to the mind of the average juror.
We know that "the judge is the sole
judge of the law and that the jury is the
sole judge Of the facts" but the Judge
who sits day after day listening to evil
dence, ought to be Judge of the facts as
he hears the evidence, and be equal to
the task of presenting those facts to a
jury unused to hearing evidence, in a
clear and unbiased manner which would
greatly assist them in bringing in true
verdicts.

ABOUT IuD.

The Chronicle believes that Hon. Tud
LaMoure would make. a frstrate
governor. But, on the other hand, the
health of the present incumbent continues
excellent.-LaMoure Co. Chronicle.
The Hankinson News notes that Hon.
Judson LaMoure is at Bismarck looking
after the interests of Pembina county
before the state board disqualification and
says that 'being ever mindful of the best
interests of the people who reside in his
district is the secret of his strength at
home" and then adds that ''there are
aspiring statesmen nearer home who
might follow the Pembina chiefs example
with profit"
The Pioneer reprints an interview OF
Lieutenant Governor Bartlett which ap-
peared in the Journal this week, in which
)ud LaMoure is mentioned for guberna-
torial honors at the next election.
Whatever may be said of Jud LaMoure,
it is fact that he has been friend of his
constituency and friend of Grand Forks
county. lud does not pose as being
perfection-he poses as Jud, and while
all of us may not see things in the same
light and other methods than his NAV be
preferred by some of his associates-he
is man of considerable Strength
throughout the state and one who would
not defnean any office to which he might
be elected.-Larimore Pioneer.
1t Gov. Bartlett returns from Buffalo
to act as governor while Gov. White
makes an extended trip west. This is
the first instance we recall where the
governor of this state thought it neces-
sary to call the lieutenant governor to
the capitol during the real governors
absence. That is the custom in Wiscon-
sin and other states, and its Inauguration
ia this state is welcome innovation.
MIR. Bartlett says he is in favor of the re-
nomination of Gov. White, bnt in the
event of his failure to land suggests Sen
ator LaMoure. Senator LaMoure is en-
titled to the nomination for congress,
and The Globe predicts that the dele
gates from the northern part of the state
will insist upon the nomination going to
him at the next Wahpeton
Globe.

THE BARRY TRIAL.

The Barry trial and verdict will go
down in judicial records as rather re.
markable one. Where insanity has been
proven TO bea family trait, when the de-
: fendant has shown injury to the head,
!, when he has in times previous and at
the time of the killing shown periods Of
mental excitement, good lawyers have
rarely failed in convincing a jury Of
emotional or some other kind of insanity
as an excuse for murder. Hundreds OF
men have been let loose with far less
hereditary and other symptoms OF in
sanity shown in their favor.
But after all, this does not prove the
verdict unjust or erroneous it only
shows that the Cavalier county jury,
while they took all this evidence into
consideration, they did not therefore lose
sight of the other side, or of the things
that went to prove that Barry was sane,
and that he committed the murder,
reasoningly, with the thought that he
/ had a moral right to do it, as expressed
by himself, "go out and see Mary Ann,
and if it is not as | tell you, hang me on
that telegraph pole, otherwise let me go
home" Barrys reasoning at that time
\ was the reasoning of large part of the
1 world, that part which believes and acts
as mobs and execute lynch law. Attor-
ney Irwin in part of his plea, carried out
the same reasoning, and said he believed
the Almighty took away Barry's brains
for the time, in order that justice should
be meted out to Mellun.
It's evident, however, that the jury
.-took the provocation, not as a justifica.
tiQn but only proof Of the crime, unless
that the degree Of punishment was made
4 imprisonment for life because of the
proyocation. They evidently did moi
believe the provocation sufficient for
cold blooded murder, and unlike Mr.,
Irwin, do not believe that God would be
{ an accessorySto what our statutes define
as murder in the first degree.
Intact, the attorneys for the defense,
though men OF undoubted ability, and
I the peers Of any lawyers in the northwest
made the theory Of the defence, SO
there was nothing for the juryto decide
except between insanity and acquittal, o.
murder in the first degree.
