They don't close then, but some

And, from her own sad experience
she knew whereof she spoke.
1t IL indeed matter OF regret that,
while our city Is making progress in
many directions, those charged with
the enforcement OF the laws and or
dinances fail to perform their sworn
duty. For several years slot machines
and other gambling devices were per-
mitted TO be run In open violation of
law, and until the sheriff OF the coun-
ty compelled their removal from the
city. The saloon keepers are granted
licenses on certain conditions, and UNI
der restrictions. They must not permit
gambling OF any nature In their places
OF business; they are not to sell liquor
to minors, TO habitual drunkards, to
those intoxicated or bordering on in
toxication, nor after II O'Clock at
night, nor on Sundays. A just public
sentiment sustains these require
ments OF their bonds. The Democrat
does not question their right TO sell
liquor; but when they transcend the
privileges grant d them, and violate
state law and city ordinances, they
should be dealt with accordingly. The
city officials, especially the mayor and
chief OF police, have duties to perform
In the matter which they should not

DURUN WHEAT CROP WILL
REACH IS, 600, 900 BUSHELS

Fargo Forum: The Van Dusen-
Harrington report, covering the three
states. makes the wheat crop q big
one. though the estimate at 21O,OOO,-
600 bushels for Minnesota, North Da-
Sota and South Dakota, is some TO-
100000 bushels less than the quantity
shown In the. >Jones-Inglis report re-
Gently issued.
The feature of the Van Dusen-Har-
rington report that makes it distinc-
tive is the effort made to cover the
macaroni or durum wheat acreage.
Some very indefinite reports have been
heard as to the durum acreage, with
rough estimates all the way from U.s.
100000 to 40,000,00N bushels. This re-
port says there will be about 45,O0O,-
900 bushels of durum. The estimate is
so large that it will surprise the trade.
Following is the report in full:
The harvest of small grains is prac-
tlcally completed in southern Minne-
sofa and South Dakota. though there

reason why the latter has attempted
to put him out of his successorship.
He has conducted himself with great
discretion and prudence, however, and
has furnished no excuse for his assas-
sinatiOn or imprisonment.
The reform element maintains that
the law of the empire expressly states
that the eldest living male member of
the family shall be the successor to
the throne and that the sultan has no
right to choose his favorite or name
anyone else to succeed him. Three
of the sultan's brothers and two of his
elder sons stand between Mehemmed
Durham and the throne. But the sui
tan has seen fit to change the order

cite as an illustration of the fact that
no objection was raised by Mohammed-

to the throne in lieu of Prince Hahn.

Annotated Press Cable to The Evening

Vienna, Aug. 17.-Private advices re-
ceived here from Constantinople con-
firm the rumors that have been cur
rent for some time regarding the crit
ical condition of the Sultan's health.
Abdul Hamfd undoubtedly is very
sick man. His nervous system is in
a state of collapse. Eminent physi-
clans from Paris, Berlin and this city
have been called into consultation, but
they have been unable to bring about
any lasting relief in the Sultans con-
dition. The physicians declare that
he cannot live much longer, and the
succession to the throne is likely to
be matter of vital interest at any
time.
1t is said that the several reform
organizations opposed to the present
ruler of Turkey have decided to COM
bine their efforts in support of Me-
hemmed Reshad Ehfendi, who, accord
Ing to Mussulman law, is the heir ap-
parent, and the legal successor of AD-
dull Hamid. But in direct violation
of the law the Sultan has nominated
his third son, Prince Mehemmed Bur-
han Eddin Effendi, who is now 81
years of age, singularly bright and
handsome young man, and whom the
Sultan loves above all those other
eight children of his, who rank as prin-
ces and princesses of the blood. Me-
hemmed Borhan Eddin is the son of

AWFUL TRAGEDY
NEAR REGINA
Aged Farmer Shoots and
Fatally Wounds One, Bar
rett Henderson.

IS ARREsTED-lNQUEsT TODAY

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Regina, Sask., Aug. IA terrible
tragedy, whether accidental or inten-
tional the taking of evidence alone
will prove, occurred about $3.50 o'clock
on the farm of Josiah Gilbert, twelve
miles south Of this city. The one fact
which Is. not denied is that Gilbert,
who Is over 20 years of age, shot Bar
rett Henderson, who came here this
spring from Prince Edward Island and
purchased Gilbert's farm. Henderson
was hurriedly brought to Regina hos
pital but died shortly after O'Clock.
Conflicting stories as to how the
tragedy occurred are in circulation.
One story is to the effect that Hen
derson, who In addition to purchasing
the Gilbert farm and the section ad-
joining 1t and has a steam ploughing
outfit on 1t breaking. has been Sleep
ing in the Gilbert barn and when driv-
ing away in the morning Gilbert called
to him saying that he would accom-
pany him but would take a gun with
him to shoot gophers. Going into the
barn Gilbert got gun which was dis
charged moment later and Hender-
son fell from his buggy. Getting up
ne started to run around the barn and
Gilbert followed him still CARRYING
the gun.
One off party of two who happened
on the scene in a buggy says that
Henderson ran towards them calling
out: He has shot me and is trying
to murder me-" They drove Hender-
son over to his adjoining section
where the breaking outfit was at work
and from there Henderson was at
once taken to the hospital. Gilbert
came into the city and gave his case
into the hands of a lawyer and was
placed under arrest.
A coroner's jury was at once en-
panneled, after viewing the body and
hearing the evidence of the doctor who
made the autopsy the inquest was ad-
journed until 5 o'clock this afternoon.
Barrett Henderson was about as
years of age and leaves a wife and
three children who are at present re-
siding near Charlottetown. P. E..
Gilbert came to town and voluntar-
lily went to the police station, where
a warrant was served on him charg-
ing him with the murder of Hender-
son. He was then remanded by Mag
istrate McClausland for eight days.
Before he died, Henderson made a
statement to the effect that Gilbert
had shot him Intentionally.

harvest Is in full swing. There has
been some wheat cutting in Manitoba
for week past and 1t will be general
there by the last of this week.
Flax promises well in every district
and II no adverse weather conditions
follow it will make crop in excess of
that Of last year.
Corn is growing very rapidly and is
fully as far advanced as usual at this
date.
Durum wheat throughout the three
states Is lookin~ very we'll, and Yield
ing from four to ten bushels an acre
more than bread wheat.
The best information obtainable in.
dicates wheat crop of about 85,0OO,-
600 bushels in North Dakota, $4,000, 900
in Minnesota and 50.00O,0OO in South
Dakota.
In 1905 Minnesota and the two Da-
kotas raised 200.000,O0O bushels of
wheat, of which about 10000, 900 bush
els were durum and 100000 bush
els bread wheat.
This year we believe these three
states have raised 21Q,00O,00O bushels
of which about 45,000,OO0 are durum
and 165. 100000 bread wheat, or about
100000 bushels less bread wheat
than we produced in 1905.
