Political Pot Boiling MerrilY
in the Eighth Judicial District

with certain republican leaders to SCI
cure his appointment as Judge in the
event OF the election of a republican
governor and the election OF Judge Goss
and not succeeding in this commenced
at once laying wires on the other side
of the fence It is said that last July
he even endeavored to have Judge Goss
resign and assured some Of the at
torneys here that he could secure the
appointment as judge Immediately II
Goss would resign, and Goss was even
approached on the subject but be
spoiled 1t all by not reslgning.
Every possible influence Is being
brought to bear to secure Endorsements
from the attorneys Of the district
even outside attorneys have been IN
duSed to assist in the matter.
There have been a great many re1
ports circulated that Mr.. Greenleaf
would have the honor Of naming the
Judge of this district in the event of
the election of Governor Burke.
Naturally, since Mr.. Greenieaf has
been the recognized leader or demo-
cratic party in this part OF the state
during the past six years 1t would be
hard to conceive that conclusions OF
this character would not Immediately
be made. Conclusions OK this kind are
always made both before and after
election and no one seems TO know
where they come from. Every mans
attitude during the campaign Is ques-
toned and representations made as to
what may have been offered him. From
people who are well acquainted in the
district 1t is as authoratively stated
that Mr.. Leighton would be entirely
satisfactory to both the dem ocrats and
republicans, and the people at large

the one that seems to ge most talked

based largely upon convenience, yet !

comes.

williston, N. D., Jan. s1.--The eighth
judicial district, always a political
hotbed and where there is always some
thing doing. is just now the most in
teresting political part OF the entire
state Minot is particularly anxious to
secure as large an appropriation as
possible for the new normal school.
In this the whole northwestern part OF
the state is interested. Everyone is
anxious that when the work Is started
no pains win be spared TO secure a
good location and make plans for flu
ture growth and development. The
population tributary to Minot makes g
larger appropriation necessary than for
the other schools when they were first
started.
The division OF the judicial district
is simply a question of necessity. The
eighth is already too large and the
work Is too much for one Judge TO at
tend to, besides the work is consider
ably behind and division of the dis
trict would be agreeable to everyone
in this section Of the state.
Just now the appointment Of judge
to succeed Judge Goss is causing much
speculation. There are at least four
candidates in the field at present. Mr.
Grace, of Mohall, Mr.. Murphy, of Ken
mare, and Mr.. Bosard and Mr.. Leigh
ton, Of Minot. Mr.. Grace Is the only
democrat in the field aud all the others
are avowed republicans or near demo
Gratis. Mr., Grace, however, is not in
the good graces OF the democrats OF
the district. and besides during his
practice in the district he has had very
| few cases in district court. Mr.. Leigh
ton has almost the solid support of al
the democrats in the entire district as
well as most Of the insurgent workers
and a strong following among the stall
warts in Minot. Mr. Murphy has some
strength in Kenmare but he is actively
! opposed by the democrats there as wei
as quite large element in the repub'

very active candidate and was out Sc

st. Paul, Jan. 2.-The museum COM
mittee of the Minnesota Historical So

OF making a recommendation to the
society respecting the authenticity or
the fraudulent origin of the Kensing-
ton rhinestone and it's inscription, has
just completed its preliminary report.
The report covers the results Of three
visits made to the Kensington locality
by Prof. w. Fl. Winchell, former state
geologist. From the report it appears
the authenticity Of the stone Is not vet
established.
AS a result OF his investigation Prof.
winchell says If the stone be fraudu-
lent it is singular that the scribe, gem
crafty considered by doubters an Hit
crate Swede, should be able to make

The report states, Notwithstanding
these considerations, which point to-

mountable. 1t is commended by those
who are experts In the Scandinavian
language and who present these diff

paramount in importance, and other
considerations are pertinent only after
the linguistic objections are removed
1t Is not improbable some action viii
be taken later by the state historical

MYSTERIOUS Fire.

Barlow Enterprise: Manager Lar
son OF the Farmers Co operative Co.
discovered flames running across O.
large pile Of blankets ON the top shelf
in the dry goods department Of the
store. He was alone in the store at
the time, and no one had been in the
main part of the store for at least half
an hour. He had been busy in the of
fee, and as he went to the front of the
building his eye was attracted by the
blaze which was fitting along the fold
ed edges of the blankets He quickly
put out the fire, but not until many
Of the goods were damaged. 1t was
not easy to account for the fire, but II
is probable that q spray from the pipes
or lamps Of the lighting plant had
saturated the nap ON the blankets and
the heat in the upper part of the room
had ignited it. Probably It was dis.
covered just in time to prevent dis
astrous fire.
