one was Mr.. Keating's. The conven
tion then adopted the following reso
luton on the subject:

abuses. We are especially confident
that in his dealings with the serious
problems arising in the Philippine
Islands. property and personal rights
guaranteed by treaty. laws and con
stitution will be faithfully safeguard
ed and protected.
Resolved. That we extend to tn,
friars in the Philippines our fullest
sympathy in this, their hour of trial;
that we appreciate the value of theil
services in the cause of religion ED
humanity; that we pledge them oul
support as American citizens in up
holding the hands of our government
in its determination to see that they
are treated with that common justice
that belongs TO all who enjoy the pro
lection of the American flag
"Resolved, That this federation con
gratulate the Vatican and the Ameri
can government on the position at
tanned in the negotiations. regarding
the questions which have arisen in ths
Philippines. and we express our ful
confidence that these negotiation
will be continued until a just and

Grand Forks, N. d., Feb. 6.-Attorney
Bangs completed his argument for the
state in the West murder trial at noon
to-day.
The first part of the morning was spent
by the attorneys in making an applica-
ton for special instructions to the jury
and arguments on the same.
Mr.. Corliss opened for the defense after
the noon recess and will take up the re-
mainder of the afternoon. Mr.. Cochrane
will speak all day Friday for the defense.
Opening Argument for State.
+ Mr.. Wineman opened for the state yes
terday afternoon. He reviewed the evil
dence briefly, prefacing with the statement
that the state did not attempt to justify
March's assault, but did maintain that
He described the occurrences in the Da-
cotah and the positions of the two men
as he understood them. and drew
the conclusion that no forcibie act on
the part of West was necessary at that
time. =..e 49,
If West had shot before, or while
March was striking, or while he was on
the floor, the case would have been differ
ent. But March had been taken away,
and a sufficient time had elapsed to
permit both men to move some distance.
They were from twelve tD twenty feet
apart There was no evidence of a
disposition on the part Of March to
renew the attack, and there were ff-
| teen men in the room who would have
prevented any more violence had it been
attempted. The purchase of the weapon
showed generalization, and it's use was
not for the purpose of protection, but FOL
vengeance. .s--E
