Pioneer. deputy Sheriff McCabe
of Walker returned today from
Salem, Oregon, having in his charge
w. E. Babcock, a convict, who has

Babcock had charge of a lumber
camp near Pine River and had
power to issue and sign checks. He
issued number of checks to straw
men," endorsed them and had them
cashed. His crooked work was not
noted until he succeeded in adding
to his bank account some $500.
When the officials of the logging
company began to realize that some
thing was wrong Babcock packed
up and Skipped" His whereabouts
could not be learned until recently,
when County Attorney Funck be-
came aware that Babcock was serv-
ing a term at the Oregon state peni-
Tertiary, for a similar crime, and
that his term would expire this
month.
The county attorney received ex-
tradition papers which were hono1ed
by the governor of Oregon and
deputy sheriff was sent after the
prisoner. 1t is understood that Bah
cock will plead guilty to the charge
preferred against him and throw
himself upon the mercy of the court.

KNOX is MADE ELIGIBLE
Senate Reduces Salary of Secretary
of State.

Senate Reduces Salary of Secretary
of State.
Washington, Feb. 1.-THE senate
committee on judiciary has reached
the conclusion that by reducing the
salary Of the Office of secretary of
state to $4,000 Senator Knox will be
eligible to appointment by Mr.. Taft
for that position.
It developed during the session that
the committee was not unanimous in
regard to the question of whether it
would be possible to repeal the salary
increase provision so as to make Sen
ator Knox eligible for the office. Sen
ators Kittredge and Overman seemed
to be in some doubt as to the propri-
ETY. of taking this action, but they will
not make minority report and it is
said they will not oppose the passage
of the bill when it comes up on the
floor Of the senate.

In the third and final three-mile
race of a series of three to decide
the small-rink championship of the
northwest at the Auditorium in
penter of Crookston defeated AL.
Thorpe of Fargo, the latter falling
in the thirty-fourth lap with
broken skate and being unable to
continue.
Manager Wyler, of the Coliseum
rink in this city, who has been act:
ing as Thorpe's manager, returned
to the city last night on the mid.
night train from Crookston, where
he witnessed the race, and gave the
following account of the event.
Thorpe gained about five or six
feet on the first lap and held his lead,
gradually gaining from the twelfth to
the nineteenth laps.
Thorpe was about twenty feet in
the lead, with Carpenter squirting,
when the former fell in the thirty
fourth lap on account of the two
front wheels of one of his skates
being twisted. He slid about twenty
five feet and hurt his knee but got
up and tried to skate, falling again
after going about sixty feet and
being unable to continue on account
of the broken truck. Carpenter, of
course, won the race.
About two seconds before Thorpe
FELL" stated Mr.. Wyler, wv. S. Lycan
said to me, Your little kid has got
the race in his nit already Il
Mr.. Lycan officiated as timekeeper,
Charles Hitchcock as starter and one
of the judges, Mr.. Wyler and Car
penter brother as the other two
judges. There was a crowd of 281
people present, most of whom were
skating.
1t is to be regretted that Thorpe
fell and was unable to finish the
race as many people thought that he
would win. AS it now stands, Car
penter of Crookston is the champion

SENATOR MClAURN WANTS BA66NC
AND TIES on FREE LIST.

United States Senator A. j. Nc
LauriD, who reached home from
Washington last week, has not los,
faith in his belief that the joint con
ference on the tariff bill will allow
cotton bagging to remain on the
free list, where he succeeded in
placing it during consideration of
the measure in the senate.
Naturally, 1 am much interested
in the cotton bagging matter, be-
cause it Is about the only way in
which the people of Mississippi can
be benefited by the tariff bill, as it
is now framed" says Senator Nc
Laurin. "All l ask of the cotton
growers of the South is that the
government do not lay any tax, di-
rect or indirect, on the product of
their toll, and l believe this is a Just
and reasonable request. So far as
Mississippi is concerned there is
very little benefit to be derived by
our people from the tariff. When
other individual states have lcgisla-
ton in the tariff bill for the benefit
of their particular industries, it is
reasonable to ask some considera-
ton for the people of Mississippi by
allowing cotton bagging to come in
free of duty, and thus reduce the
cost of preparing their principal
crop for market.
IF we car get both bagging and
ties placed on the free list it will
mean a saving to the farmers of the
South of from three to five million
dollars annually, and that is worth
asking for"
