Terms Long Enough.

A short time ago we mentioned the
fact that the constitutional amendment
to increase the term of Judges of the
Supreme Court from six years to ten
years should be defeated at the coming
election.
We know of no reason why six
year term is not long enough. If a
judge is able and upright so that his
services are needed, the people will re-
elect him. If he does not make sat-
isfactory officer, he ought not to be
kept in Office four years after he has
become failure. 1t looks like an at
tempt, on the part of these officers, to
perpetuate themselves whether they
are making good or not.
The modern tendency is to make all
public officers more accountable to the
people, and, to change our constitution
by making the people powerless to get
rid of poor judge, would be a long
step backward. Vote against the
amendment.

MANY ARRESTS IN BISMARCK
NORTH DAKOTA STATE CAPITAL
THE SCENE OF HosTILiTIEs.
Edward G. Patterson, r. e. Packard

In Drama.

Bismarck, N. D., Sept 7.-Twenty-

weeks, fourteen of which were made
on the same complaint, more arrests
promised, and general custer proceed;
1ngs threatened against County Com,
missioner Edward G. Patterson and
some of his colleagues, have turned
the capital city of North Dakota topsy;
turvy. Lines of demarcation between
political foes were never more sharply
drawn. Charges and. counter charges
have followed one another in rapid
succession and conditions have
reached a stage that the general cit,
izen body would gladly welcome an
opportunity to bring about a cessation
OF the turmoil
The arrests are the outgrowth of
libel suits filed by r. G. Patterson,
county commissioner. city commission
er, proprietor of the Mckenzie and 500
hotels and former chairman of the re-
publican county central committee.
against l. E. Opdyke. publisher, and
F. f. Packard, editor, of the Bismarck
Weekly Times. Mr.. Packard is also
member of the newly organized
North Dakota tax commission. Four
complaints against each defendant
were sworn to by Mr.. Patterson, max.
Ing eight counts in all against them.
The suits for libel were begun after
certain articles attacking Patterson an.
peared in the columns of the Bismarck
Times. The four articles, specifically
referred to in the complaints sworn to
by Mr.. Patterson, charged him, first,
with petty grating; second, with ex.
plotting the city and county repub.
lican party for personal ends; third.
with refusing to turn over the keys
of the old Northwest hotel building to
Commissioner of Agriculture w. G.
Gilbreath, that it might be used for
the Industrial exposition, until he had

COMMITTED SUICIDE.
William Lucke Hangs Himself in
Granary Saturday Morning.

News came to Oakes on Saturday of
the death cf William Lucke at his home
in Yorktown township. He was found
by his wife in the granary hanging by
the neck to joist little before eight
o'clock.
Coroner Boardman was called and
went out with E. j. Moore by auto.
A jury was impaneled, consisting of
E. j. Wippich, A. j. Arndt and E. j.
Moore. On questioning Mrs. Lucke
the story of the sad incident is about
as follows: Lucke had gotten up in
the morning and fed and harnessed his
team. About six O'Clock his wife
called him for break fast and there was
no response. She waited and thinking
he had gone to neighbor set out to
do the milking herself Growing sus-
pcious she began looking around the
building and along towards eight
O'Clock foun her husband hanging in
dark bin of the granary DR.. Stokes
and w. f. Dickinson Of Fullerton were
out in the neighborhood hunting chick
ems and were called in. They cut the
rope by which the man was suspended
but life had been extinct for some
time. DR.. Stokes gave the opinion
that the deed must have been commit
ted about six o'clock. AS the body
hung the feet were about twenty inches
from the floor and the unfortunate
man is thought to have climbed to the
joists and then lowered himself.
No motive appears to be given for
the deed. 1t must have been the rash
act of temporary insanity. About 500
would haye cleaned up his debts, and
as he had an excellent crop this year,
there was little to worry him there
Obituary will be found under the
Fullerton news of this week.
