MYSTERIOUS MURDER.
Victim Probably Placed in The Woods.
 Near Chelmsford, Mass

Lowell, Mass, June 10.- The head less body of a young woman was found under heap of brush in q patch of woodland In Chelmsford yes terday afternoon. Murder had been committed in horrible fashion, for the head had been separted from the trunk by series of slashes with q dull weapon. The meager clothing affords no clue to the identity of the unfortunate, and the circumstances offer case of interest outside rather than directly set up is that the body had been taken into the woods and thrown in a spot that offered some se- clusion.
 The body was found on wooded road leading from the so-called North Billerica road, about two miles from the village of Chelmsford center, by Elmer Hildred, superintendent of the town farm, and William Balser. Near the scene is a logging camp, which has been deserted for q number of weeks. Hildred and Balser saw the feet pro- truding from a heap of brush and after a nasty Investigation they re- turned to the village and notified Se- lectman Warren and Constable Wright the four men then returning to make more careful investigation.
 The body was badly decomposed. The Lowell police were notified and Assistant Medical Examiner Meigs went to Chelmsford and wanted per mission for the removal of the body to Lowell. It was then dark, so that search of the wods was abandoned for the night. The autopsy will be held this morning.
 The logging crew during the winter were in charge of Foreman John Cou- pey, who is still at work in another wood lot half mile distant, but who of late has had no occasion to go to the old camp. The logging crew scat tered during the warm whether but the foreman remembers no women who would have had any reason to go into the camp, except perhaps, to carry clothing to relatives. Most of the men appeared to be married and had families or friends in Lowell.
 Dr Meigs, on viewing the body, thought 1t had lain in the woods four or five weeks and the camp had been abandoned longer than that. To-day the entire section will be carefully looked over in hope of finding the head Dr Meigs judged the woman to have been 25 to 30 years old, five feet four inches in height and to have weighed 40 pounds.
 Whether or not there were body wounds remains to be shown by ex- animation. There is an abrasion near the heart which may have been from violence or from insects. One of the men who assisted in removing the body thought the abrasion was from q bullet The police know of no missing women in Lowell or neighboring. towns. They believe the body was taken into the woods.

Three k.na. os Royal sncee..ion.

Many persons have been confused by the various. laws of succession which prevail in Europe. There are several different systems. the most general being that known as the Sallc system, under which women are com- pletely excluded. This is the rule ID Belgium, Sweden and Norway, Italy, Denmark and Germany. Then there is the German-Dutch system, under which males in all degrees of relation ship take precedence of females, the throne passing to the female line only in case of the extinction of all the male line, however remote. This is the rule in Holland-fr which it takes its name-Russia and some of the minor German states. The third system is that of England, Spain and Portugal, under which females are excluded when there are males in the same de- gree of relationship, but take prece- dence of males whose degree of rela-s tionship is not so close as their own.--- N.

His ability and high character COM

votes at the coming election, for with
him as a censor over the county work

ship, is the Democrat. nominee for
commissioner, and no better qualified
man for the place has ever asked the
suffrage of the people of Stark county.
He is a practical business man and
would bring to the office, II elected,
that sturdiness of character and re-
gard for the welfare of the people that
is SO much needed and desired by the
taxpayers of Stark county.
The conduct Of county affairs In the
past few years has been a disgrace to
the fair name of Stark county and her
people. There has been no regard for
law in the letting OF contracts and the
courts have been appealed to time and
again to stop extravagant outlays Of
the peoples money. The county is be-
ing plunged into debt with an utter dis
regard for the future. and no note Is
taken of when settlement day is to
come in the payment of the bonds
that are being issued at intervals to
bolster up the depleted funds of the
treasury. The present bonded indebt-
edness is over $500, 900, and money has
to be borrowed frequently 10 keep up
running expenses, in spite of the fact
that the tax rate Is now higher
than it bas ever been even ait time
when the court house was being built.
The people Of the county are ia
miliar with the many recent outrage
Gus attempts to let illegal contracts
and do things outside Of the pale nf
the law. 1t is not necessary to re-
count them.
What Is needed in the commission
ers Office Is a man Of character who
belongs to the opposite party. There
should be minority representation.
This is the only safety-valve that can
be placed upon the machinery of the
county anu check the extravaganza
of the present board.
Vote for Mr.. Braucher on election
day. Elect him and there will be no
further Illegal acts, or, IL they are COM
mitted in defiance Of him, the public
will be informed as to where the re-
sponsibility lays.

A Man Who Favors Tax Reform--Safe, Talented
and Friend Of the Laborer and Farmer

r.. Emmett Morgan, OF Alliance, is
one of the nominees of the Democratic
party for representative to the general
assembly. Mr.. Morgan is a resident of
Alliance, and in all fairness from his
location should receive a majority of
the votes of Stark count, as the east
end is entitled to representation not
only upon the legislative delegation,
but in the county offices as well.
But it is not upon the geographical
location that Mr.. Morgan's friends
base their hope of his election. It
is his personality and immense pop
ularity that recommend him to public
notice and support. He is one of the
most genial men of the east end city,

any reference to party differences.
Mr.. Morgan has been for many years
engaged prominently in the insurance
business and has displayed rare bus
mess talent and on1ucted all his af-
fairs in such an honsst and careful
manner that he has won the confidence
and esteem of all who know him.
Alliance is noted for its Republican
ism and when the members of that
party step aside to elect a Democrat
to place and power, 1t is because of
some strong reason. Mr.. Morgan was
elected to the city council Of Alliance
and has held other positions of trust
in that city, which Is guaranty enough

institution for a number of years.
When at East Rochester he was elect
ed treasurer of West Township, which
is overwhelmingly Republican. He is
at present treasurer of Paris town
ship, having received an immense vote
at the time of his election.
In the selection of Edwin s. DE-
Ford as its candidate for county treas
urer. the Democracy of Stark county
has been exceedingly fortunate. No
man in the county could have been Sc
lected who would give more
general satisfaction or has higher quail
iications for the place, should he be
chosen by the people at the November
election.
MIR. Deford Is a man Of experience
in the very lines that one needs train
ing in order to fill the Office to which
he aspires. During the years that he
has resided in Minerva, Mr.. DeFord
has won the confidence of his fellow
townsmen to such an extent that par
tisanship is lost sight of and when he

honors he has been elected. notwith-

that he is a man of the right sort.
He has all the qualifications and call
ibre that are needed to make a repre-
sentative of the right sort, one who
could be depended upon to do the right
thing by his constituents. There
would be no vascillation or sitting up-

servative, and has had q business train

to him in shaping practical legislation.
Mr.. Morgan can be counted upon to
stand right upon the matters of tax

presented to that body that will aim
to equalize the burden OF taxation, TO
place 1t where 1t belongs and relieve
the common people of the injustice
which Is now being done them. The
farmer, the laboring man, the small
home owner who knows what this
means, should take advantage Of the
opportunities presented at the polls this
fall and vote for one who stands
pledged to undo this great wrong. The
solution Of the issue lies with the peo-
