10 o'clock Ashner appeared at the
house and demaned tea and some.
thing to eat His wife informed him
that she had nothing in readiness at
that time. He then started in to
abuse her. The daughter prepared
cup of tea for him and the mother
started out, claiming she was going
after the COWS. Ashner followed her
and knocked her down and kicked her
and made her return. He then again
assaulted her and Mrs. Ashner called
to the children for assistance stating
that he had razor. The young ones
used sticks and stones and endeavored
to get the old man away but this only
aroused his anger more and he cut his
wife's throat and then endeavored to
kill the daughter She escaped, how
ever, and ran to neighbours for assist
ance. In the meantime Mrs. Ashner
got up and in spite of the flowing
wound tried ito run to where her son
was. The old man again caught her
and pulled her to the ground by her
hair and again slashed at her throat.
By this time help was coming, and
fearing to be caught Ashner hid in the
coulees near the house.
The mother was still alive when her
son and others reached her and told
them that her husband had cut her.
The sheriffs searching party failed
to find Ashner and he confessed after
his capture in this city by chief of po-
lice Birchfield, that he had taken to
the hills and had travelled several
miles out of his way in order to escape
being seen. When captured he was
hiding under some ties near the pump
house and was evidently waiting to
ing to eat for a couple of days and had
walked in the neighborhood of SO
miles.
Ashner is So years of age and his
wife was Sc years. Since coming
here Ashner never pretended to do
any work and his wife and children
have had to make the living and do all
the farm work According to letters
from the Jewish Agricultural Aid So
ciety Ashner: is indebted to them for
about $2,70O which was furnished him.
The society received, however, $1,000
insurance by the death of a brother-in-
law of Ashner's :
Coroner Draper held an inquest and
the jury brought in verdict that Mrs
Ashner came to her death by means of
razor cuts inflicted by her husband
who had malice aforethought.

PURE FOOD IN NORTH DAKOTA.

In commenting On the work of en-
forcing the food laws in the northwest
the Commercial Bulletin has the fol-
lowing to say regarding Professor
Ladd and his work in North Dakota:
I'm his article on Experience of a
Food Commissioner" published in this
number, Commissioner E. b. tLadd of
North Dakota remarks that it is not
the duty of the pure food commission
er to notify certain manufacturers that
they have invented some new scheme
to evade the food laws. That is very
much to the point.
'Mr. Laid has had a lively exper-
fence as food commissioner in North
Dakota. With a grand total of $4,000
on which to make a two years cam
paign for pure foods, he has made con-
siderable progress.
''About two years ago, when Mr..
Laid took hold of the work under the
new law, there were wise winks in
certain quarters and simple little
questions asked about what the North
Dakota commissioner expected to &C.
complish on $4,000. But the winkers
of those winks failed to take Ladd into
consideration. The fact is there are
few like Ladd The amount of work
he has done and the energy with which
he has chased some of the pure food
vendors to earth proves that
'North Dakota is pretty we'll es-
tabhshed as a pure food state today.
It's people are being educated to the
value of pure foods, and manufacture
ers are learning that they cannot dump
any old thing into North Dakota

RUSSIA WILL PROTEST.
Say Japs Had No Right to Attack Tor
pedo Boat at Chefoo.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 13.-The action
of the Japanese torpedo boat destroy
ers in attacking and towing out the
defenseless Russian torpedo boat de-
stroyer Ryeshitelni at Chefoo is re-
garded in diplomatic circles as being
a very grave matter for Japan. LAS
soon as the facts are officially estab-
lished no doubt exists that Russia will
promptly call the attention of the pow
ers to this breach of the neutrality of
China.
Aside from the possible questionable
right of an uninjuIed warshlp to seek
a sanctuary in a neutral port when not
forced to do so by stress of weather or
lack of coal and provisions all the dip
lomats agree as to the absolute lille.
gality Of beligerent ships entering
neutral ports and there committing
hostile acts. The case, so far as the
facts are known, is considered much
more fragrant than that at Chemulpo,
where all the foreign cOmmanf'c!S eX-
cept the commander of the American
warship there, protested against the
proposal of the Japanese to enter and
fight the Russian cruisers Variag ami
korietz in a neutral harbor.
The Associated Press is able to an
nounce that Russia has already for
mally protested to Japan, through
France, against the action of the Jap
anese torpedo boat destroyers in at
lacking the Russian torpedo boat de.
stroyer Ryeshitelni at Chefoo and tow
ing her away from that port and that
the protest has been communicated to
the powers.

accordingly made a trip to Bismarck
Sunday. He returned to this city and

WHY THE SUN is FOR ROOSEVELT


The New York Suns complete edi-
torial, stating it's determination to
support Roosevelt, is as follows:
THE campaign is now on. Both
parties and both candidates have spok-
en-. On the one side, conservative
party with radically inclined and
erstwhile too strenuous candidate for
president, and behind him for the
vice presidency a man of undoubted
capacity, sound opinions and mental
and physical promise of endurance.
On the other side radical party, with
an infinite capacity for mischief and
a stupendous record of mischief actu-
ally accomplished, presenting for
president a conservatively inclined
candidate of irreproachable character
and attractive personal accomplish
ments; and for vice president one
whose extreme age is the sole but
sufficient reason for apprehension in
case of his succession to the presi
dency.
Such is the choice before the indie
pendent voters, and it is the indepen-
dent voter who will decide this cleo
ton. He cannot take Judge Parker
on a republican platform and record.
He can not reject Mr.. Roosevelt with
out reckoning to the distant Huns;
without helping to open the gates of
power to political forces of unmeas-
ured destructive potentiality. 1t
seems better to maintain unbroken the
wall of defense which the first election
of Mckinley established.
1.-TWO things might have happened to
make the choice of 1904 a choice be-
tween individuals rather than between
parties standing on their respective
records. Neither of the two things
has happened. The first opportunity
was deliberately avoided by the com
promising tricksters at St. Louis
The second was deliberately thrown
away at Rosemount yesterday. Bar

Little Rock, July P. The new Democratic state central com mittee, at it's first meeting, held yesterday afternoon at the office of Secretary John H.
