actively in the field. 1t is likely that the
two political parties will, for congress
sional purposes, divide the state into two
parts, on each side of line running from
east to west between Grand Forks and
Fargo, one congressman to come from the
upper territory and one from the lower.
The adoption of such program would
throw fMr. Spalding, who is understood
to desire another nomination, in the same
territory with his successor, Thomas S.
Marshall The contest would then be-
come a contest between Marshall and
Spalding, with Cass county as the chief
point of interest. Mr.. Spalding would be
a formidable candidate for the nomination
with Cass county behind him, but would
not be in the race otherwise. Mr.. La
Moure, under these conditions, would
walk off with the upper territory nom
ination without a struggle.

He is a member of the ways and means

not there is to be any tariff tinkering
and in that position his vote Will count
strongly. If he should decide that the
last campaign in his district was really
an expression on the part of the people
that they were satisfied with present con-
ditions, it is likely he will be somewhat
slow to favor any sort of tariff legiSla-
tiOn. 1t is understood that he is in favor
of the principle underlying the Babcock
bill; but he might be all that and still
not favor the bill. Mr.. Babcock himself
admits that his original draft Of the bill
was crude, and that there must be some
radical redrafting before the bill again
is introduced. Mr.. Tawney probably
stands on the some ground with e good
many other middle west republican mem
bers, who are ready to favor the Babcock
idea, provided Mr.. Babcock succeeds in
making a practical and satisfactory ap-
plication Of it in his bill.
FEDERAL There has been lot of
discussion in Minnesota
JUDGESHIP. regarding the new federal
judgeship which congress,
this winter or next, will be asked to pro-
vide for. Whenever the Minnesota dele
cation gets ready for the case, the bill
will be introduced and passed, but not be-
fore. Judge Morris of Duluth, who is a
candidate for the appointment, could not
accept it were congress to pass the bill
during the session now about to OPEN or
during the short session which will open
in December, 1902 unless, under the terms
of the act, the law should be made to go
into effect on or after March 4, 1902.
Such a provision would make Judge Nor
ris available, for on March of that year,
his term as a congressman will end. On
the delegation he has a number OF
stanch friends and it is not difficult to see
that he will have a long lead over any
| other man who may come into the race.
1t is within the power Of the Minnesota
delegation to pass the bill at will, and to
have 1t go into effect at any specified date.
These things are all in the interest of the
Morris candidacy, for if the delegation as
a whole favors him, as it now seems to do,
it will introduce the bill during the ses-
sion now about to begin, but not press 1t
for passage until the short session next
winter. Perhaps it may go through one
house during the present session, but ii
will go no farther than that If it is the
| intention of the delegation to give the
place to Morris. The passage of the bill
during the coming session would be an in
dication that it was the intention of the

William A. Eddy, at Bayonne. on re-
cent occasion made his first electric
test in blizzard, by sending aloft q
six-foot single plane kite during tho
heavy gale and dense Hnowfall, sustain-
ing in this way steel wire at a consid-
cradle height. So severe was the gale
that the kite was repeatedly borne
down to within about so feet of the
earth, but it always recovered it's posi-
ton aloft. The falling snow dimmed
the kite, but did not overweight it. At
five p. m. the electric connection with
the steel wire was severed from the
grounding rod, when the kissing sound
of the brush discharge could be plainly
heard, followed by a one-inch sparE
Mr.. Eddy says that the electrical activ-
ity with the kite at so moderate an ale
titude was the greatest he has ever ex.
perienced. 1t was as powerful as If a
thunderstorm were near by. At the
time the steel wire was paid out it was
made to run through an iron snap

THE OSTRICH AS FOOD.
Said to Make Splendid Steak anA.
Soup, But the Boer VIII Have
None OF 1t.

There are two dishes an ostrich farm.
er in South Africa will not tolerate on
his table, though both are considered
delicacies. One is ostrich soup, an
other ostrich steak, says the London
Mail
There is not much eatable meat
about an ostrich, for his body Ii nearly
all bone. His long, delicate legs are,
however, supported upon remarkably
massive thighs, and these provide
joints which are utilized by the house
wife on an ostrich farm, when an unto
ward accident has ended the birds Rfo
and he is fit for nothing except tho
larder.
The thighs are SO extraordinarily
muscular that steaks cut from them
are not very appetizing, but they mako
splendid soup, which may even be COM
pared with the renowned turtle for
richness and delicacy. It's strengthen
ing properties are also great, and it the
ostrich were cultivated for food, in
stead of for feathers, it would very
likely prove formidable rival in the
sickroom to the most expensive turtle
soup. But no farmer has the larCler in
view when he rears an ostrich chick,
and when the birds grow up it goes
seriously against the grain with him

Osuriches are dreadfully prone to
suicide. however, and are determined
fighters, and as they don't know how
to conduct their battles wisely they
are usually victims to broken limbs,
and must be put out of their misery by
their owners, who cannot operate
surgically on such delicate members
as an ostrich's fragile legs.

TO CHARGE OF MURDER.
WILL APPEAR AT NOVEMBER TERM OF
SUPERIOR COURT.
Hard Fought Legal Battle Before Judgt
McLendon Thursday Morning in
Preliminary Examination.

At preliminary tria! before Justice
McLendon Thursday morning Jordan
Jackson. colored, was bound over on
the charge of murder. A full account
of the crime was given in last week 5
issue of THE NEWS.
The trial consumed the entire morn
ing, and though the preponderance OF
testimony was against the accused his
counsel fought the issue to finish. The
defense put up a plea OF accidental
shooting and the testimony of all their
Witnesses yerged toward this central
point.
The star witnesses for the prosecu-
tion were Little Jackson, George
House and William House. Little
Jackson swore that at her house about
a week before the commission OF the
crime Jordan Jackson stated that the
negro who was killed. Jim House, owed
him money. and that he twas going to
have the money or have Jim. y The
defense made an effort to impeach this
testimony, and one of their witnesses
did swear that he was present when
the entire conversation occurred aud
heard no such threat made.
George House, step-father OF the de-
ceased. swore that when he tlrst reach
ed the scene of the crime the gun lay
about II feet from the dead body,
hammers down and muzzle pointing
toward the feet of the corpse. When
he returned shortly afterwards a
change had been effected in the posi-
tim of the gun, it laying about four feet
from the body, on its side. with the
muzzle pointing directly toward the
dead Negroes head.
His testimony was corrooorated oY
