FIaxton Pigger Fatally Wounded

Leonard II. Burton, a Flaxton
blind pigger, was shot and per-
haps fatally wounded Monday
night about IL O'Clock, by Dspu-
ty Sheriff W. S. Towns, when the
latter attempted to search tho
pigger's building. Towns in
company with members Of the
village council, L. NJ Bottom. DR..
Paulson, P. S. Ware, T. J. Lar
son and R. B. Towns, all armed
to the teeth, went to the pig and
found it locked. Towns ordered
the pigger to open the door, but
the fellow began shooting out Of
the door without any further
provocation. He shot four times,
the bullets passing uncomforta-
bly, close to the deputy's head.
The officer and councilmen open
ed fire, and Burton was shot
thru the breast. Frank Gerheke e
and E. w. Hindes, two Flaxton
citizens who were in the pig for
a drink. lay on the floor and
were not seriously injured. Both
received numerous shot in their
backs. Burton came to Flaxton
from TOlley recent y.

Makes Them Do Things.

McEwen, the hypnotist, ap-
pears in the opera house each
night this week. He is drawing
large crowds and the entertain
ments are pronounced good clean
exhibitions. McEwen appears in
the fore part of the program with
a number Of very clever tricks,
one of which is placing his wife
in a rigid hypnotic state and rails
ing her into the air from a cas-
ket. Apparently the woman
floats out of the casket on the air
and stays for some moments with
apparently nothing to support
her, then drops back gently into
the casket. While in mid air, a
solid hoop is passed around her
body. McEwen places a large
class in a hypnotic state at the
close of the entertainment, and
what he can't make those fellows
do isn't worth doing. The en-
tertainment is pronounced gen
uine by those who have seen it.

more than half Of that number, being
either Federal or prospective Federal
appOintees, and where. to conceal
their treachery and unfairness, they
vote a written secret ballot in contest
cases, the honest element of the party
may not hold it's own against trix1ers
who graduate in Hansbrough's school
and who are skillfully versed in all
political thimble rigging by which
conscientious delegates are foodwink-
ed buncoed and deceived. The peo-
Dle, now, however, are awake ana the
electors will pass judgment on the
republican stewardship of Ward coun-
ty and North Dakota on June 10Th,
and unless all signs fail, the machine
will be overwhelmed With the free of
Niagara. Tweed of New York was
never nearer his fan than when Il par
asite legislature passed and an obe-
dent governor signed. the ROar,! of
Audit bill. making kim absolute boss
OF the great stata OF New York. The
machine in North Dakota, l predict.
vas nearer its fall than il imagined
when It forced "pon the people {, FRI
mary election law compelling the vnt
ing of a secret ballot by the people S
representatives at the state convention
and railroading through an uncalled
for and illegal, capital commission
law, law conceived IN fraud and
drought forth in inequity.
The people are awake. They are
watching and waiting until June 10Th.
North Dakota cannot remain Repub
lican state in name only. Republican
principle, Republican traditions, Re-
publican honor and Integrity are still
dear to the majority Of the republican
electors of North Dakota and they are
not going to continue voting to sus-
tain machine which bellies every pro
fession which libels every declaration

personal and political records as
''clean as a hounds TOOTH" I defy
u single man in Ward county to truth
fully point to a single instance where

directly. Can the state machine made

this truthfully? I again chaIleng

follower.
Once dog troubled with insomnia,
arose during the still watches and
had every dog within mile barking
to beat the band. The whole neigh
torhood was aroused. Men came to
the windows clothed in pajamas and
carrying loaded guns. The racket
Increased until nearly every dog in
the neighborhOOd was wild with ex-
citement and determination to go out
and tear something up. Finally one
dog of more mild disposition than
his neighbors, said to dog near
him who was bowling his best. What
by the way. are we barking at any
way?" BLAMED if know" answered
the other dog, but it must be some
thing awful" Well" said the other
dog, '"before we bark a lung out sup
pose we investigate and find out what
we are barking at" Then the two
dogs started an investigation and
found there wasn't a single dog in
the whole neighborhood who had the
slightest idea as to what was the
cause Of the barking.
Now before you play cuckoo to

publican county central committee, by
the grace of the state machine. and
whose political reputation is now sad
to relate, somewhat numified and

''Murphyism."
Now. I rarely break into print, and
this is absolutely the first and only
time I have ever written one word
in defense of any action of mine. More
than this, I have refused time and
again to permit my friends to say
anything in my defense. I am a good
waiter and time usually sets things
right.
You are wrong entirely when you
say SHOULD the so-called reform
movement in Ward county win, the
major will head the delegation for
the state convention" I will do mo-
thing of the kind. I shall not even
be a candidate for delegate. l am, as
I believe all citizens in favor of good
government should be. in favor Of the
delegation headed by Governor De-
vine.
This delegation Is pledged against
the domination of the Federal-state
machine, bossed by H. c. Hansbrough
the greatest living example of success
full mediocracy in the West.
For eight years I have fought this
machine in season and out 1 know
the leader of the machine to be dis
honest double dealing, cold-blooded,
selfish. and opposed to the peoples
interests all the time. The people
nave supinely submitted to the out
RACES of this machine long enough.
In fraudulently conducted conventions
where the machine was self perpe-
trated by the state committee. more
than half Of whom held pre,-.es, and

Did Not Confirm Sale.

The Tibbs Hutchins Co., OF St.
Paul, bid in the Kallak stock of
goods Monday at $40, but the
Judge believing the price entirely
too low. did not confirm the sale.
The goods will be sold at private
sale. G. L. Prescott bid in the
fixtures at 1925, but these will
also be sold at private sale for
the same reason. Mr.. kallak
was allowed to take his exemp-
ton, 1896 from the stock and
sold the amount Of goods to p.
p. Lee.
