few minutes conversation about an
OK, the negro's pretended business at
the house, he rushed up. the steps and
oyerpoWered Mrs. Haynes. He snatch

gave the alarm. =5i..#sss5
"A crowd quickly gathered and it is
said there wass.a cool determination
to. arenge the deed. When Sheriff
Burch arrived, ittwas then abont nine
O'Clock, he faced an anxious situa ion.
He urged the men to allow the law to
take It's course, and was aided In
q1ieting the intense excitement by
Messrs. Beal and G.L. Dewitt, Mr..
"a. II. Haynes and other influential
men OF the community. The hubsand

accompanied the sheriff surrounded.

away and carried before Mrs. Haynes.
who at once dentifed him as the man.
"A thrill ran through the crowd, and
had it not been for cool heads, the
negro would have been sWungsu to the
nearest tree. The sheriff again urged
themto be law-abiding citizens and
under the promise that there would be
aspeedy trial, the men remained quiet.

TO ~ExTERMINATE GOPHERs.

The 500 line has started a'war of ex-
termination on gophers, believing ev-
cry dollar offered in the way of prizes
for the killing of the little pests will
return with interest to the road in
transportation receipts. The Car
rington Independent in speaking OF
the interest the small boy takes in the
matter says: "No where does the
small boy exhibit the patience he does
in gopher hunting. His weapon is a
string about four feet long, with a
loop at one end. The loop is carefully
arranged around the edge of the 60
pher hole. The little animal usually
pokes his head above the ground and
surveys the situation before ventur.
ing out. While he is thinking it ovel
the small boy yanks the string, the
loop tightens. a swish through the air
and a thllmp on the ground and the
gopher is done for. The 10 cent jack
knife with the tin blade sewers the tai

quests"

fishes that the rights OF the purchasers
under said contracts were voluntarily

Abandoned; that the possession of the

The friends of Major Frame rather
hope that the report that Jud LaMoure
will not be a candidate for congress is
true, S they believe such a move would
strengthen the chances Of their can
didate. The candidate whose chances
would be most favorably affected by
LaMoure's withdrawal is Hon. B. F.
SpaIding of Cass. There is a very
kindly sentiment for Mr.. Spalding
throughout the state. He served the
state creditably during one term. He
left a good law practice to accept the
position. When he was elected n
state had set the excellent example OF
keeping her congressman in office sew
eral terms. Mr.. Spalding had reason
to believe that if he did his duty in
Washington his industry and fidelity
would be rewarded. Through the
fates OF politics he was not renomin-
ated, notwithstanding the fact that
there was no opposition to him prior
to the hour of his defeat and no can
didate sought the place against him.
1t is not the province of this article
to deal with the environments OF the
last state convention. Mr.. Spalding
who wanted the place failed, and MI.
Marshall who was not a candidate took
it. If Marshall had declined it some
one else would have received it. Mr..
Marshall has made a good congress
man. For the same reason that Mr..
Spa1ding should have been returned
Mr.. Marshall should now receive fav-
orable consideration. The doing OF
another wrong by the Forthcoming
state convention will not undo the
wrong of the last, and in the continu-
alton of the lone term policy the
state sustains an ~irreparable loss III
prestige and power. Mr.. Spalding is
now a candidate for congress. HI
has the advantage of having held tht
position one term. He will not be {
new man. Location is Of minor i'm
portance compared with fitness. TIL
congressman represent the who'll
state. MI. Spalding's candidacy neet
not injure that of Mr.. Marshall in tn,
least. There are two places. Tn
two congressman are elected at large
1t will be a mistake alike for the in
dividuals and the state to attempt 3
build up the candidacy of n at tn
expense of the other. Those friend
of Mr.. Spalding who do not alread
realize this will profit by ascertainin
at one how friendly the people are t
our present congressman.

east bound North Coast Limited train
via the N. p, passed through Fargo
shortly before noon, a little more than
four hours late. The delay was caused
by the burning of a bridge, four miles
east Of Miles City, Mont. But for the
thoughtfulness and exercise of COM
mon sense, on the part of a ranchman's
daughter, IL years old, there might
have been a bad accident. The girl
was on her way home from school and
was riding horseback when some
strange smoke attracted her attention.
She put up the best signal for DANCE
that wa at her disposal and then
dashed off at a breakneck speed to the
nearest section house and gave the
alarm. The necessary protective
methods were taken and approaching

Tho advocates OF the tBuckiin) Aus

many voters who do not own land to
support the amendment. because under
II the land owners would have to pay
all the taxes. Suppose John Doc rents
farm from Richard Roe in Weld
county and Weld county adopts the pro-
visions of the tBucklin) Australasian
tax amendment. The taxes on Richard
Roc's land are doubled under the new
system. Richard Roe. being n wise
