towns about Hattiesburg indicate a
large attendance, and the outlook is
that 1,5O0 to 1000 enthusiastic fans
will see the first game. Eaton is
slated to pitch for Hattiesburg, while
Sprinkler or Jimmie Curnane will oc
cupy the box for Meridian.
Very many of the local merchants
have agreed to close their stores for
the opener, and as far as business is
concerned Thursday afternoon will be
practically half holiday.
The Traction Company is preparing
to take care of the crowds this year
better than ever. Prices have been
secured on two new motor cars, much
larger than the present motor cars,
and two or three extra trailers. With
this additional equipment, it will be
easy to take care of all the attend
ance at Hamper Park without any one
having to wait.

The work of Pitcher Eaton on the
slab for the visitors, with the hitting
of Manager Carlos Smith, of Hatties-
burg and the all-round work of Dicky
Bayless were the bright particular
spots in the afternoons amusement,
and these three players received the
plaudits of the rather small audience
time after time. Pitcher Eaton
showed that he has class as hurler,
sending nine of the Gulls to the water
trough via the strike-out line, and
though he was punctured for nine safe
ties he showed some pretty nifty stuff
and is undoubtedly good twirler; in
fact, he looks too good for the Cotton
States League.
Manager Carlos Smith, the former
Baron, showed that he is still the
same old hitter as in the Southern
League days by slamming out three
hits out of four times up one Of them

Views Of the Week From Vari-
Gus Parts Of the State.
AGREES TO REINFORCEMENT
Governor Burke Signs Measure Pro-
viding for Three Congress
sional Districts.

The report that Governor Burke had
vetoed the bill dividing North Dakota
into three congressional districts was
%unfounded. Governor Burke did not
veto the measure, but signed it. If
congress passes the pending reappor-
tionment measure North Dakota will
elect three congressman from as many
districts in 1912.
The favorable consideration of the
reapportionment measure by the house
of representatives and the discovery
that Governor Burke did not veto the
bill redistricting the state has led to
much speculation as to who will be-
come candidates next yea The meas
ure leaves Congressman Hanna and
Helgeson in the First or East district
and it is highly improbable that there
will be any candidates who could cope
with them, entrenched as they will be
by federal patronage and prestige of
office. 1t will be a fight to a finish
between them.

AN OLD TOWN is REVIVED
New England, Dead for Many Years,
Takes New Lease.

The rapid development of some Sec
tinns of North Dakota is attracting a
great deal of attention. New England
was FIRST settled more than twenty
five years ago by a colony of people
from the New England states. They
were unused to Western methods and
failed. Several substantial buildings
were erected, but nearly all were torn
down later. The town was deserted
for many ears until seven or eight
years ago it was re-established.
1t is now the terminal of the Puget
Sound branch into this state and as
lively a place as can be found in the
West. There are two newspapers,
three banks, a large number of stores
and other enterprises.
That part of Hettinger county is
being settled rapidly and there has
been a rush of homeseekers all spring.
A telephone exchange is being estab-
l1shed and the town has long distance
telephone connection and telegraphic
connection with all points of the
state.

York, recently defeated Republican

In the letters exchanged between

Mr.. Dickinson will go to his Tennes-

and will not return to the practice of
law. in which he was engaged when
President Taft appointed him secre.

Unofficially Washington discussed
with relish the resignation of the sec.

were those who found other reasons
than that given in his letter.

LABOR OFFICIALS WIN
IN SUPREME COURT
GOmpers, Mitchell and Morrison
Will Not Go to Jail.

Washington. May l6.-Setttng aside
the sentences OF Imprisonment i'm.
posed by the supreme court of the
District of Columbia for alleged dis.
obedience to a boycott injunction the
supreme court OF the United States
held that Samuel Eotnpers, John
Mitchell and Frank Morrison, prest.
dent. vice president and secretary, re.
spectively, of the American Fedora,
ton of Labor. had been enormously
sentenced to Jail on a charge OF con.
tempt of a local court.
The court unanimously held that the
only sentences that could be imposed
upon the labor leaders were fines. In
so holding the supreme court of the
United States found that the court OF
appeals of the District of Columbia
and the supreme court of the District
erred in treating the contempt pre-
ceedings as a criminal case and not a
civil n The effect of holding the
proceedings a civil one was to make
Jail sentences impossible. Hence the
Jail sentences had to be set aside.
To correct the error the case was
sen back to the local courts with di-
rection that it be dismissed. At the
same time the court expressly made it
possible for civil proceedings to be in.
stituted against the labor men by the
Buck Stove and Range company. at
whose instance the original contempt
case was brought.

ALLEGES LATER WILL EXISTS
Former Mrs. w. j. Mooney of Langdon
Demands Big Estate.

~Contending that there was a will
subsequent to the one that has al
ready been probated and that in such
subsequent will she was made the sole
heir to the estate, outside of approx
mately $4,000 in life insurance, the
value of the entire estate being $685.
600, Mrs. Clinton Frasier, bride of a
wealthy retired Philadelphia barrister,
formerly Mrs. w. j. Mooney of Lang
don, has commenced a contest at
Grand Forks in which she seeks to
establish such second will and set
aside the provisions of the first will,
already probated, and under which
her marriage transfers the income
from the estate from herself to her
stepson, John Mooney of Willow City.
Under the terms of the will that she
now seeks TO have set aside Mrs.
Mooney-Frasier will not receive any
income from the estate of her de-
ceased husband for a period of eight
years, this document providing that in
the event that she remarked within
ten years her share of the income
should go to the son up to the close
of a ten years period.
Mr.. Mooney was killed in the steam
er Republic disaster, out of New York
in January, 1909, and thus the son
will receive the income from the es-
tate for eight years. At the end of
the ten-year period the estate is to be
divided equally between Mrs. Mooney
Frazier and her stepson.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frazier are at present
on their honeymoon and have an
nounced Spring Lake Beach, N. j., as
their home for the summer months.
Their marriage took place at the
home of Mrs. Frasier's parents in Chi
cago, Mr.. and Mrs. John H. Griffith.

OE|Tz IS GIVEN
life SENTENCE
Defender Of Cameron Dam Con-
viCted Of Murder.

Hayward, Wis. May 14.-"It is the
judgment of the court and your SEN
tence is that you, John Deitz, be pun
ished by Imprisonment for life at the
state penitentiary at Waupun and
that one day each year. namely, Oct.
8. o shall be kept in solitary con.
fnement."
The above sentence was imposed by
Judge Reid On John Deitz. the outlaw
Of Cameron dam, for the murder of
Deputy Oscar Harp during the siege
on the Deitz cabin last October.
The jury, which was out sixteen
hours, returned a verdict finding John
Deitz guilty of murder in the first de-.
gree and finding Mrs. Deltz and Leslie
Deitz not guilty.
Deitz arose calmly and asked for a
new trial on the grounds that much
of material evidence had been ruled
of law.
After DeitZ' motion for a new trial
had been made and denied Judge Reid
asked him if he had anything to say
why sentence should not be pro-
nounced. Deitz at once launched into
a TRADE against the lumber trust,
raising his voice in uncomfortable
madness.
DO you suppose" he asked, looking
straight at the judge, II haven't known
that sooner or later the trust, because
it is big and | am little. would kill
me or put me out of the way? have
fought my fight and defended my
home and family. l have done moth
ing wrong, and this conviction does
not alter the fact. The trust has one
creed, one law, one purpose. That is

years to ruin him. 1t looks as If they

General MaderO and Judge Car.
bajal Again Confer.
SOME OPTIMISTIC FEATURES
Mexican Envoy Brings Definite propo-
sitions and Has Been Given
Plenary Powers.

1uarez, Mex. May 16.-Provisional
President Francisco l. Madero, Jr., at
the conclusion of a conference with
Judge Carbajal, the federal peace en-
voy. announced that there was a
strong probability that peace would
be restored in Mexico within a short
time.
Francisco I. Madero. ST., and Rafael
Hernandez. sole survivor of the numer-
Gus go betweens who have endeavored
to bring about peace, were present.
Senior Carbajal brought definite
propositions which the government is
disposed to consider.
The most optimistic feature of the
days developments is the fact that
Senior Carbajal has been invested with
plenary powers and is authorized to
sign the peace agreement on certain
conditions.
What the terms are has been a mat
ter of secrecy, but it is known that
the original demand of the insurrec-
tos that they be allowed to name four
teen governors OF the twenty-seven
states n hat they be represented
in a new cabinet by four members of
their party has not been received with
enthusiasm by the federal govern
ment. although the question of the
resignation OF President Diaz has been
shelved as a result of Minister Liman-
tours explanation.
What the federal government is
disposed to offer the i~nsurrectos is
only ten governorships and but one
member in the cabinet to succeed, it
is believed, Vice President Corral. 1t
was rumored that DR.. Vasquez Gomez
Is the man upon whom the govern
ment looks tavorably for the post.
This proposition may be the final
basis under which Senior Madero may
consent to conclude peace, but there
are breakers ahead when it reaches
his cabinet. Other insurrecto leaders
desire a big slice of governmental ads
ministration or they will prosecute the
rebellion.
