Goodrich Citizen.

Miss Dora Kramer daughter Of
Jacob Kramer, who lives eight
miles north of Goodrich, escaped
serious injury if not death mirac-
ulously while in the hay field last
Thursday. She was sitting on a
hayrake to which was hitched a
team Of horses that had been un-
bridled and were eating hay out
Of the stack the men were build
ing. The horses became fright
ened and started for home on the
run. Miss Kramer was thrown
from the seat and caught in front
Of the teeth of the rake and was
rolled and dragged in this manner
clear home which was quite a dis
tance we understand. Aside from
some bruises she was unhurt.

The Burliegh county officials were

proved to be Fred Garmbling, who
with his father and brother have
been engaged in putting up hay
for Robert Cotton on 9 the IS la llaatter,'s

man had been moving and had
left his team and gone to the house.
Not returning within a reasonable
time his father went to look him
up, and on entering the house
found Fred lying on bunk dead
Ashotgun was nearby, and the
theory is that'the young man had
placed the muzzle of the weapon
in his mouth and pulled the trig-
ger, the charge tearing out one
side of his head. Death must
have been instantan eous.
The Burleigh county officials
after viewing the remains con-
cluded that an inquest was not
necessary, and the body was
brought to town, burial being had
yesterday afternoon and interment
in the Asklund cemetery. The
young man had not been entirely
right in his mind for sometime,
and was undoubtedly deranged,
when he committed the above

ENFORCE THE GAME Law.

Hunters should be careful how they
violate the game law. II they are
not they r liable to get into trouble.
Two in Guilford county over-stepped
the time limit by just one day, and
the killing of two or three partridges
cost them ten dollars apiece. This law
should be rigidly enforced. 1t is nee
essary for the protection OF game. II
it is to be enforced at all it should be
done 50 alike to all who violate it
and they should be made to suffer for
the ofense. 1t is only recently that
strict attention has been paid to pro-
tecting game by enforcing this law
and since this has been done game has
greatly increased and hunters have
much better sport during the open sea-
son.

MILL MEN WANT HIGH PRICED
COTTON.

Some remarkable conditions exis.
in the cotton market at present. One
is that the cotton mill men want high
price cotton. One would think they
would want the price as low as posi-
bic, but such is not the case at present.
President Harvie Jordan gives the rea-
son why the manufacturers want
high prices, and he says many mill
men have made the statement to him.
They have sold for some time ahead
most of the products of their mills at
prices based On high cotton. If prices
for the raw material should drop in
the near future-before these contracts
are filled-the purchasers would be
likely to refuse to receive the goods
at figures agreed upon.
1t is said that the mill men could
still make money at the prices for
which they have sold their goods for
future delivery if they had to pay sew
eral cents a pound more than present
prices for the raw cotton.

If the petition sent to the delegate
in congress from New Mexico by the
territorial board of education and by
that of Santa Fe convey the true senti-
ment of the people of the territory and
the conditions existing there it would
be we'll to continue the territorial form
of government for some time longer.
These educational boards beg Delegate
Andrews to do all he can to prevent
the passage of a bill pending in the
house which prohibits gambling in the
territory, because the public schools
are largely supported by the fees paid
for licenses to run gambling houses.
If the bill should become a law and
the territory is admitted into the union
as a state with its provisions incorpor-
ated in its organic law it could be
repealed by the people at any time they
saw fit. So, if congress desires to put
a stop to the system Of licensed gam
bling which now exists it had better
refuse to admit that territory to the
union as a state.

DEMOCRATS AND THE PHILIP.
PINES

Luke E. Wright, former governor
general Of the Philippines, n now
the first American ambassador to ia
pan, in a speech at Huntsville, Ala,
declared that the United States could
not in honor now give UP the islands.
And General Wright is not a republic
can from New England, but a demo-
GRAFT from Tennessee. Industrial
News.
One would suppose from the above
that The Industrial News thinks
General Wright is the only democrat
who thinks that the United States
could not in honor now" give up the
Philippines. We suppose the number
of democrats is very small who think
that our government should at this
time withdraw her occupation Of The
islands and take away her protection
from the people and the money invest
ments there. Many who deplore The
governments action in buying the far
off territory from Spain would refuse
to endorse such a course. Were such
done the condition there would be far
worse than on the day in which ADJ
miral Dewey sailed into Manila bay.
What error our government has
made in regard to this matter does not
lie in the refusal to abandon The
Philippines to anarchy and internal
strife and then to become the prey of
that nation which could first get pos
session.
We will remind The Industrial News
thai II was a prominent republican
who expressed the regret that Admiral
Dewey had not displayed the am
amuIIn; c: discretion ty sailing Oh.
Of Manila bay after destroying the
in going into it.
If that paper will take the trouble TO
make investigation it will find there
are a great many democrats-and DEM
ocrats, too, who are not beholden to
a republican president for appoint
ment to three important ofices-who
think with General Wright on this
matter.
General Wright has been holding Of
fee SO long under the republican ad-
ninistration and received such rapid
promotion that we had lost sight of
the fact that he was classed as a DEM
ocrat. No matter what are his poll
ties now, he has a great many demo-
Gratis who are with him in the senti-
ments expressed in his Huntsville
speech, as above quoted.
