Detective Charles McGarvey, the
crowd laboring under the impression
that 1t was that officer who had done
the shooting. Cole had been arrested
by McGarvey on forgery charge and
was suspected of being one of the two
bandits who several days ago held up
the North Coast limited on the North
ern Pacific at WEIGH Spur, numbering
Engineer Frank Glow and wounding
Fireman Thomas Sullivan.

While he was being sweated in the Of

crowd following him. The mob soon
reached at least 5000 in number, pack
ing the streets for two blocks about
the station.
Blood May Be Spilled.
With revolvers drawn, the officers
prevented the mob from searching the
police station. and the crowd then
made its way to gun store, forced
their way into that place and secur-
ed number of shotguns, but for some
reason apparently were unable to 10.

leaders declared, however, they would
have the life of the slayer and If an

The State Day by Day
NORTH DAKOTA IN FINE SHAPE.

Other Sections In the Country Are
Having Much Worse. Weather.
North Dakota is enjoying better
weather than many other sections Of
the country, and the farmers are get
ting their grain seeded rapidly. The
situation is worse elsewhere with the
snow and storms that have not struck
this section.
A Washington dispatch says:
When asked for his opinion on the
coming crop of grain, Mr.. Wilson
said:
"The spring seeding is little back
ward on account of the cold weather.
There is plenty of time between now
and the last Of September to grow
crop of all kinds of grain. In the
states of Minnesota and the Dakotas,
where we get much of our spring
wheat, seeding has been delayed about
two weeks, but with few days OF
warm sunshine, planting will be in
full progress.
while the weather has been unsea-
sonably cold in some districts, still 1t
has not been severe enough to retard
blowing, and my advices are that the
ground in those states has been near
ly all made ready to receive the seed.
We will have waram weather in few
days now, and don't see what is to
prevent a normal crop of spring wheat
in these states. AS regards the Cana
dian Northwest, claims being made
that this years harvest will be Sc
riously diminished, may have some
foundation According to what con-
slider authentic advices fro mthat Sec
ton of the country, the weather has
been so cold that blowing has been
almost possible"
Here's dispatch from Winnipeg,
which shows how much worse the con.
ditions in Northwest Canada are than
n North Dakota:
Crop prospects could hardly be
worse in Western Canada than they
are at present. Sunday snow fell all
over the West, covering the ground
to depth of from one to four inches.
Seeding was late before this came, bue
this will delay it still further.
Although reports of seeding are
being received, it is extremely doubt
full If much has yet been done. as the
ground is very wet and the weather
cold.
Elevators from one end of the
country to the other are bullying with
wheat, and there is great quantity
in the farmers hands, because they
have been unable to market it on ac-
count of the car shortage and bad
roads. Careful estimates show that
there is fully one-third of last years
crop still in the country between
Winnipeg and the Rockies. and if the
present coal strike continues, the rail.
roads will be powerless to move wheat
on account Of fuel shortage.
"The lateness of the season will re.
suit in largely decreased wheat
area, much of which will be sown to
oats, barley and flax"
A dispatch from st. Vincent, Mimi,
indicates that parts of the Gopher
state are in bad shape. 1t says:
"The prospects of seeding seem to
be growing poorer and poorer every
day. No seeding Of any account is
yet done in this county. Last year
the seeding of wheat was all finished
here three weeks prior to this date,
and at this time was all up, growing
finely. A few warm days would make
things all right, however, as the
ground only needs drying and warm.

when the case of Mrs. Emma Kauf.
mann, charged with the murder of her
sixteen-year-old domestic, is called for
trial in the state circuit court in this
city, which is expected to be some
time early in the coming week, the de.

change of venue to some other county
in this judicial circuit. The applica.

prejudice in this county is so strongly

not secure a fair and impartial trial.
