not do. Murphy wants Dix renomi-

1t will be remembered that two
years ago the Democrats of Tennes-

state to fall into the hands Of the
Republican party. The Democrats had
been in power so long that they had
become corrupt. A wing of the party
undertook to reform the party and as
a consequence two Democratic tickets
were placed in the field. The latest
reports are to the effect that tine
rivalry in the party has been renew
ed and that the Republicans will
sweep the state in November.

Horrible Fate Of Man Near
Webster, N. D.

Webster n. D. Sept. 2.-Engineer
John Brennan of Emily. Mimi, was
blown into bits yesterday afternoon
by the explosion Of g threshing en-
CINE near Webster. He was standing
directly alongside of the big boiler
and his body was hurled through the
air fully seventy-five feet, unrecog-
nizable and with much of the flesh
and bones actually torn to pieces and
spread over the ground in small
chunks.
George Gibbs of Webster was so
badly injured that he probably will
die. He was burned about the arms
and legs and his skull was fractured
The engine was being driven on a
road near Webster. A metallic wagon
attached to the machirEe was blown
thirty feet away and was smashed in
to pieces, while five men riding on a
hayrack about 100 feet distant were
knocked over by the terrific force.
The engine had been purchased yes
terday morning by Erwin Mcmillan of
Webster, and was being driven to his
farm at the time. The boiler had a
130-pound pressure. At the moment
the explosion occurred, Brennan was
engaged in preparing to pick up a
separator. The accident occurred at 5
o'clock.

Peterson Advocates Saturdays.
Rev. A. e. Peterson in his address
on Sabbath for Man at the First Bap-
tist church discussed the labor prob
lem to great extent. He believed in
the observance of the Sabbath day as
it was originally intended and that it
should be so enforced. ....
He said that all men needed GER
tain recreation and that inasmuch as
Sunday was holy day set part for
worship, the laboring men could not in
dulge themselves in their own methods
of individual enjoyment to the fullest
extent, so he advocated setting apart
Saturday afternoon for that purpose.
This plan he thought would work
out excellently for both employer and
employe, as both would gain in the
long run.

AMERICAN
SHOT While
PROTECTING
DAUGHTERS

Ell Paso, Sept. Murdered by
rebel soldierse while protecting his
two daughters, was the fate of
Josheua Stevens, an American set
tier of Colona, Pacheco, according
to an authentic report received by
o. P. Bowen, business agent here of
the Mormon colonies in Mexico.
1t was at first reported that Stew
ems, who was killed last week, had
met death at the hands of an Ameri-
can, but this story was sent, 1t is
said, to avoid trouble with the reb-
Element to the south of Juarez.
Two rebels visited Stevens home
with apparent evil intentions toward
the two young women of the house
hold. stevens met the intruders with
a shotgun and escorted them to the
limits of his property, an orchard.
According to the story told by his
daughters, one of the MeXicans drew
a sword bayonet from his belt and
thrust 1t into the Americans body,
stevens fired and fell dead over the
body of the man whom he had killed.
The other rebel escaped.
Details Of the case have been in
Nestigated by julius Romney, presi-
dent of the colonies. 1t is said TO be
the fifth murder of an American set
tier by rebels in the district, and
Romney has urged that no more fam
flies return to colonies until quiet Is
restored. 1t is declared that the fed
eral soldiers strung out between Jua-
reg and Chihuahua, have not left the
railway and that the American colo
mics are absolutely unprotected.
