Do You Want Herd Law?

County Auditor Fabrick in
forms US that several petitions
asking the commissioners to allow
the voters to vote on the aboli-
ton of the herd law for Ward
county, have been received re-
Gently. It will be necessary for
one-tenth of the voters, which is
about 600, to sign their names to
those petitions before the COM
missioners are allowed to order
this question voted upon. AL
most enough names are now in?
If you are anxious to have this
law done away with, then circu-
late some of these petitions and
send them to the auditor. You
can frame up your own petition.
This should be done during Au-
gust and September-not later.
Ward county is now an agricul-
rural county, beyond a doubt,
and that law should be abolished.

Ward County Political Gossip.

The two aspirants for the Office
Of chairman Of the Republican
central committee Of Ward coun-
ty, A. w. Gray Of Kenmare and
Vic Rose, the popular Donny-
brook druggist, are getting in
their best ticks. The chairman
ship will be decided on August
IL. Vic Rose seems to have a
little the better of it at present,
but friends Of both parties are
working tooth and nail for their
favorites. It is almost certain
that a Minot man will not sue
coed Jos. Roach to this office. It
is quite likely that someone from
Minot will be appointed secre-
tary, tho who he will be is not
even talked of at this time.
1t looks quite likely that Judge
Goss, the present judge of the
Eighth judicial district, will sue
coed himself. At least that is
the way the politicians have it
figured out. 1t is the duty Of
the delegates to the previous
state convention, from the vari-
Gus counties that constitute the
eighth district, to nominate the
judges of the district courts, and
Ward county had 81 delegates
and Williams county 8; if the
two counties pull together, they
will win out over McHenry coun-
ty with Is delegates who favor
Christensen, and over Bottineau
county with her II insurgent
delegates. Ward and Williams
counties seem to favor Judge
Goss at the present time.

a difficult problem a short dis

an embankment some 80 feet

The same has been repaired but

Terrible Tragedy Near shepherdstowr
Youth Of l6 Kills s. Year Cd Brother win
an Unloaded Cum


A startling tragedy. resulting in the
death of a young lad of eight years of
age at the hands Of his fifteen year-old
brother. took place near Shepherdstown
on Sunday afternoon last. The parties
were respectively James and William
Miller. sons of Ellsworth Miller. and the
shooting was done with cat rifle. in
presence of the family and others at the
Miller home. The elder boy had the cat
rifle in his hand. and pointing it at his
younger brother said be was going to
shoot him, wifen off went the gun and
the boy was instantly killed. There is,
as far as we can learn. no acc usatlon of
intentional killing in the matter simply
the old story of the careless handling Of
an ''unloaded" gun.
