 Thaw continues to be tried in the newspapers, and we are inclined to the belief that the New York Sun has arrived at proper verdict: If this community is healthy and right minded" the Sun says editorially, there can be but one view of this crime. It was cowardly in it's attend ant circumstances; and it was ac- companied by that deliberation and premeditation which constitute mur- der in the first degree. The indict- ment which was presented yesterday must be followed in due course by a trial before a just judge and a fair jury and money must be as power less as the unwritten law to save a murderer from the electric chair. In this way only can the deterrent force of capital punishment be of lasting influence in our city. Evening Sentinel.

The earnest advocates of Good Roads, throughout the country will be interested in the contemplated ac- ton of the commissioners of the dis trict of Columbia in regard to the use of "tire chains" on automobiles, to prevent the machine from skidding. It is claimed that the chains tear up the country roads and are especially destructive of city asphalt streets. For several year the effort to get good roads in all sections of the coun- try has been growing in interest and in about all the states, associations have been formed to secure ade- quate legislation. This movement had its first start through the Wheel mems league" an association of cy- clists, was taken up by the agricul- tural and postoffice departments. fin- ally interesting farmers as we'll as pleasure seekers. A vast improve ment in the conditions of the roads has been made in some states and If the use of chains on autos is as de- structive as claimed the various Good Roads associations will likely take a hand in opposition to their use.

treasury or by the packers, and now the .barbers of Washington have uni ted to raise the price of shaving fifty percent, all because the district com missioners have ordered that the shops should be kept in a sanitary condition. For several years the lead ing shops in that city have been ad- vertising that they were conducted on the most scientific sanitary plan, and without raising the price of shaving. Now, that the authorities have said they shall do just as they have been advertising they were doing, to meet the expense five cents is to be added to every shave. In Washington there are fifty thousand men who shave twice week, and ten thousand who shave three or more times, making 13O,OOO slaves week. On account of this increased price to be demanded by the barbers, the patrons will be
 
 called upon to pay S6,5OO weekly, or $SSS,O0O a year. It is evident the boss barbers proposed to make good, as the additional cost to them to obey the law would not average more than dollar week for each shop. There is a law which forbids the forming of combinations for the purpose of raising prices. This law is now being invoked, says Washington writer, against the Standard Oil Go and other corporations and individuals. Only a few days ago three or four ice dealers in Toledo were given jail sentences for combining to raise the price of ice. The combination of barbers to increase the price of a shave, or of any other tonsorial work, is in direct violation of the antitrust law, and it has been suggested that when the department of justice gets through with the Standard Oil, Steel. Sugar and Tobacco trusts it might turn its attention to this combina- tion of Washington barbers.

His chief mission will be the securing of the stock potato" which is largely raised in Europe for stock feeding. This potato is larger and eoarser than that raised in this country and it is with a view of introducing it in the United States for the procuring of alcohol that the department has sent Mr Hansen to Europe. Mir Han sen will also endeavor to secure some types of potatoes with disease-resist- ing qualities. This will be his sec ond detail to Europe. the last trip resulting in his bringing back the hardy cherry from Russia, the raising of which has proved a great suceess in Minnesota and Wisconsin His itinerary takes in Stockholm and Sweden. where a number of valuable fruits are grown. and it is expected he will bring back many new varie- ties.

WASHINGTON, July 2. - William Randolph Hearst telegraphed the fol- lowing from San Francisco in answer to the speech made by Senator Bailey in the senate last week: Senator Bal ley said little of importance and conse- quently there is little to be said in re- ply. I cannot honestly claim credit for the able articles on the senate by MT. Phillips. although I would be glad to do so.

 KANSAS CITY, July 2. - For the first time all saloons in Kansas City, Kan, and Kansas City, Mo-, were closed yesterday. On the Missouri side it was the usual Sunday closing that has been carried out for months by order of Governor Folk. On the Kansas side, where the prohibition law has been openly violated for years, the closing was the result of Governor Hoch's campaign to stop the sale of liquor not only on the Sabbath, but on every other day in the week.
 Since the Sunday closing law has been in effect on the Missouri side thousands of persons have gone to the Kansas side for liquor, but yesterday interstate drinking was impossible. The lid was not only on in Kansas, but it was padlocked. In order to en- phasize his earnestness Assistant At torney General Trickett of Kansas had padlocks placed on the doors of all sa- looms.

the old town of Neville, is beaut-
fully situated; has excellent wat
er and splendid drainage and is
only a short distance from the
beautiful Sheyenne River. The
country surrounding is one Of
the finest agricultural districts
in the state and is populated by
a fine class of people many of
whom are old settlers and in
splendid circumstances,
Tolna, the next town on the
line is twelve miles northwest of
Neville and is located about four
miles south of the historic Stump
Lake. This town also has the
promise of being a winner as the
demand for locations shows. The
natural advantages could not be
better than they are in this new
town and there is no reason why
it should not be as large as it's
neighber to the south.
It will not be long until these
towns will spring into existence
as if by magic. Already lumber
is being transported overland
and the sound Of hammer and
! saw is heard from daylight until
! dark. Most lines of business
are represented and a newspap-
er will be published in each town
in short time. Applications for
several elevator sites have been
made and these will no doubt be
built and ready for business
before this seasons crop is
ready for market.
There are good openings for
someone with a little capital to
put in good frst-class hotels.
There will be two other good
towns on the line in Ramsey
county, which have not been
plated as yet, but the work is
being pushed as rapidly as possi
BILE, and as soon as finished will
be put on the market. This sale
will be held in about two weeks
at Devils Lake.
