republican party and people.
.'The broad statement has been
made, indeed, that control of the
committee by candidate or by a
coterie of candidates, will determine
who the presidential candidate of the
republican party shall be, through
the committees decision of contests
and its preparation of the temper
airy roll of delegates to the national
convention.
Such inference is as unjust to the
members of the national committee
as it would be, if true, unfortunate
for the republican party. The COM
mittee is an organization Of the par
ty and not of any individual or spec
ial interest.
''The duty of deciding as between
contestants for the right to repre-
sent district or state in the nation
al convention is sacred party tlust
and members of the committee viii
discharge that duty honestly and i'm
partially anu with regard only to
the best interests of the party and
country.
"As a member of the national COM
mittee can say that the committee
will hear all contests and will decide
each case on its merits, sustaining
justice and party regularity with no
thought as to the preference Of the
contestants for any candidate or
candidates. I speak not alone for
myself, but for members of the COM
mittee who have expressed them
selves to me on the subject. I have
no hesitancy In declaring that the
spirit I have indicated will consti-
tute the only cotrol in the committee.
"All contestants will be heard by
the full committee. No sub-com-
mittees will he named to pass upon
such questions and there will be no
division Of labor or Of the RESPONSE
bility. Every man claiming right
to seat in the convention will be
afforded an opportunity to present
his claim to the entire committee and
consideration of each case will be re-
stricted only by such rules and reg.
ulations as may be necessary to ex-
pedite the hearings and to reach q
fair and impartial conclusion"

The crime for which Basanella was
to serve life sentence of imprison-
ment was for the murder of lumber
jack in a box car near Grand Forks
about seven years ago. His brother
John was also implicated in the crime.
Soon after the trial the men escaped
from the Grand Forks Jail. Joe was
later apprehended in Montana. John
drifted to Mclean county, where he
lived under an assumed name. He
murdered a man there, was convicted
of the crime and hanged at Wash
burn.
Woollen was doing six years time
for assault with intent to kill. The
crime of which he was convicted took
place in Jamestown. At the trial he
was found guilty and sentenced to
five years. imprisonment. While he
was awaiting transportation to the
penetentiary he escaped from the
Jamestown jail. He was captured lat.
er, however, and his sentence was
extended one more year.

that the men probably doubled on

Last evening a citizen of this cit!
came from the woods and reported

When they first made their escape,
however, they were plainly sighted

to death in the artists home in the

mothers dying struggles as she
fought for life with the murderers.
The whole house was ransacked,
