Fargo.-Friday closed a chapter in
one of the most notorious murders
ever committed in North Dakota. Joe
Remington. sentenced to prison for
life for the murder Of George Flett at
Arthur, this county. became free
man as a result Of the clemency of the
state board Of pardons. The murder
was one Of the most coldblooded
crimes in the state and 10 wildly re-
called by the pioneers Of this section.
Remington was raised at Casselt0n,
between here and Arthur. and in the
fall Of 80 was employed on q farm
near the latter place. He took a load
OF wheat to Arthur, and in those days
the elevator agents carried large sums
Of money. frequently paying in cash.
Remington saw F1ett's roll. The sight
of this fingered in his mind, and when
he was later In need of money. due to
his associations with = notorious Min.
neapolis woman, he returned to
Arthur and beat Flett to death, taking
bis money. ~~ '..4@ ~ .u..'

\ Plain Humbug.

Governor Blease declared i'm n
speech in Spartanburg county. some
time ago, that he was not in favor of
drawing the line for the candidates
for the House and Senate and make
them declare whether they were for
Blease or Jones, but that each man
should stand on his own merits Take
1T from us Governor Blease does not
want Blease legislature for in that
case it would be up to him to put
through some measures which he All
vocates and which he knows are nm
constitutional, but make mighty good
campaign material with which he can
bamboozle the dear people" lie can
further his own political interest
much easier with legislature oppos-
ed to him. The great majority of his
vetoes were made for political effect.
Take his veto of the appropriation
for steam heating plant at Orange
burg college. When he was a Trustee
OF that institution he voted to install
the plant, but since he is governor he
vctoes the bill to complete it. Just
good political thunder that is all. He
vetoed the bill that would benefit the
poor people more than anybody. That
was the Medical Inspection bill. Peo-
pie with money can put their children
under the care of the best physicians.
while many a poor man will let his
child 30 with some little defect. which
could be cured in it's youth, but If not
looked after would, possibly result in
serious trouble for life. The women of
the State endorsed and worked Tor the
bill. btu read his reason for vetoing
it please. .--Abbeville Medium.

Arthur Brisbane. the chap who is
paid $4,000 year to write editorials
for Hearst's papers, has finished his
series of double column articles in
tended to bamboozle country editors
and small town merchants to the be-
lief that the establishment of a par
cells post will make them prosperous
and consequently happy. In business
as in politics you can fool all the
people some Of the time. some OF the
people all the time, even If you can't
fool all the people all the time"
If Brisbane e Co., partners, unlimit-
ed, can fool the people sufficiently to
get that parcels post fastened on the
government there will be no need
for them to ever care to fool single
idiot again. The mail order houses in
such a condition would flourish like
green bay trees and the rural mer-
chants and publishers would learn too
late that fine words butter no pars-
nips and that experience teaches a
dear school.-Barnwell People.

numbers OF illusuious sons and daugh-

prominent roles since that time. Their
memories should be cherished and a
