II was believed By many that Theo-

Of money without calling upon the

II not reelected. a.aine and West
Virginia are the only two States which
seem likely to elect Republicans in

1t Is the belief Of the Republicans
In Maine that the Democrats, despite
their victory last year. will not be
able to elect the Legislature In No
vomber. Should the Democrats fall
to return a majority TO the LeEisla-
ture. 1t will mean the enforced re-
tirement from the Senate Of Scna-
tor Gardner, who was appointed by
the Democratic governor of the Pine
Tree State to fill the unexpired term
OF the late Senator Frye. In West
Virginia. which normally Is Repub-
iican State, the Republican leaders
are bending every effort to unseat
Senator Watson, and are hopeful Of
accomplishing their desire. Senator
Watson Is filling the vacancy caused
BY the death of Senator Elkins and.

lvember.
But these possible losses are not

GRAND FORKS Co.
TO GET IN Line

Grand Forks, n. D., Feb. 24.-Fri-
day, March /, is the date on which a
conference will be held in Grand
Forks for the purpose OF considering
the question of affiIiating with the
Better Farming association of North
Dakota. Thomas Cooper, director of
the association, will be present upon
that occasion to deliver an address
and explain to the Grand Forks coun-
ty farmers and business men the
workings of the organization.
The Grand Forks Commercial club
committee. consisting of William
Dryburg, o. B. Burtness, j. D. Bacon.
o. S. Hanson, w. ". O'Connor and
Andrew Veitch, held a meeting and
determined upon that date.
Since it was announced several
days ago that the better farming
movement would very probably be
adopted in Grand Forks county no lit
tie interest has been shown in the
movement and there doubtless will be
a full attendance at the conference
here.
The work of getting into touch with
prominent and influential farmers and
business men in every section of the
county has already heen commenced
and the invitations to attend the gath
ering and participate in the FORMAL
launching of the big movement will be
made Immediately.

INSURANCE men
MAY Fight TAX

Bismarck, N. d.. Feb. ~24.-There is
a radical difference of opinion be-
tween the Fidelity Mutual Life Of
Philadelphia, the Northwestern Mu-
tual Life Of Milwaukee n a number
of other life insurance companies, and
the insurance department of this
state over the amount Of premiums
which the companies shall be charged
for taxation purposes.
Taxes on gross premiums taken In
this state in 1911 are being paid under
formal protest, and unless the COM
panies or the department give in
the matter in dispute will have to go
to the courts for judicial determine
ton. The specific protest to the de-
partment on the form OF gross preni-
UNI return is directed against the In
clusion in the total OF taxable pre-
miums Of sums credited to the assured
over the amounts actually used by the
company for premium purposes. This
excess, the company claims, in every
instance has accrued and been taxed
in the year preceding that for which
the report has been made. The ques~
ton has been before the courts cf
various states and the companies hold
that their view Of the matter has been
sustained in most cases. Last week,
however, the comptroller of the cur
rency held that the companies must
pay the federal tax on the gross pre-
miums taken, thus sustaining the po-
sition of the North Dakota depart
ment.

LITTLE MlNoT CHILD
HORRIBLY ScALDEn

Minot, N. D., Feb. 24.-A terri
BILE accident occurred here when
little Glen Molsberry, 3-year-old
son of Henry A. Molsberry, a
prominent engineer employed by
the Great Northern, pulled a kettle
Of boiling water off the stove its
contents pouring over his body.
The little fellow was playing on
the kitchen floor when she espied
the kettle on the stove and curious
to know what it contained stepped
upon the oven door and grasping
the handle of the kettle pulled it
toward him. He lost his balance
it seems, and failed to release his
hold upon the kettle with the re-
suit that it was pulled off the
stove and its boiling contents were
poured over him. His right arm,
shoulder and left side were terri
bly, scalded. Medical attention
was secured at once and every
thing possible has been done
to alleviate his sufferings and save
the little fellows life. His con-
dition Is regarded as very serious
and there is not a great deal Of
hope for his recovery.

MANY PATIENTS
FOR The ASYLUM

Jamestown, N. D.. Feb. 24.-'Three
patients were received at the asylum
in the past twelve hours" said an Of
fetal Of the state institution, and he
added: IAN attendant has been sent
out for a fourth"
One of the patients received this
week was Lee Miller, the young man
who was sent to the penitentiary from
Foster county for the murder of his
father. At the time of his trial Super
intendent Hotchkiss, then practicing
medicine at New Rockford, gave ex-
pert testimony that the young man
was insane and that his was a typi-
cal ease of insanity. But the author
tiles believed the state penitentiary
was the place for the boy and he was
sent there where he has remained for
a res or more. Recently the author
tiles saw that he would be better off
here and asked for his commitment.
A pervert from the feeble minded in
stitution and a dope fiend from the
state pen have been recommended
sent here for care but the authori-
ties find the institution over crowded
and it may be possible that they cam
not be received here--for the present
at least.
Miss Louise Wartchow, formerly a
trained nurse, whose home is in Ward
county, has been brought to the asy-
lum for care. She went insane when
fr4& 81 6Na x4aIa ay,1 xxyn q rafvJra~l 81 Inn
brother and relatives in Ward county
who had her committed to the hospital
here for care. She was very violent
and the sheriff and woman assistant
had all they could do to restrain her
in her violent attacks. The report that
she was a former resident Of this city
seems to be entirely without founda-
ton.

GAS EXPLODED;
TWO N. D. PEOPLE
BADLY BURNED

Minot, n. D., Feb, 24.-Knocked
down ana frightfully burned by the
explosion of gas forming from gasoline
escaping from a lamp, Mrs. David
Foutz, who lives near Deering and
her infant baby were brought to st.
Joseph's hospital yesterday.
The explosion is one of the most
remarkable that has eve occurred in
the northwest. Mrs. FoutZ and her
brother in law, Ernest Foutz had
tried to light a gasoline lamp, and for
some reason it did not work. Gasoline
leaked from the lamp, and they de-
cided to use a kerosene lamp. This
they lighted and sat down to read,
In the meantime the gasoline escap-
ing from the gas lamp had formed a
gas, and this exploded, causing a ter
rife conclusion, knocking Mrs. Foutz
to the floor and her brother law
against the door. Ernest Foutz man
aged to escape, but Mrs. Foutz was
unconscious and her hair and clothes
caught fire. Earnest hurried back in
to the burning house, and with as
sistance finally dragged Mrs. Foutz
out. They rooled the woman on the
ground and after some time put out
the fire.
In the meantime the children, two
boys and two girls, were sleeping
peacefully in the bedroom. The
flames were rapidly reaching the room
and it was thought for a time that all
efforts at rescue would be unavailing.
Finally Ernest Foutz succeeded in en-
tering the building and started to take
out the children. All the children eX-
cept the baby were rescued, but in
the efforts to get the baby out of the
window, the little one fell back into
the burning room. Foutz made an
other sensation entrance into the
room, and the little n was finally
rescued, but not until after it had
been severely burned about the hands
and feet.
Mrs. Foutz was terribly burned
about the shoulders and hair. She
and the baby were brought to st. Jo-
seph's hospital, and every effort is
being made by the physicians to bring
about a recovery. Unless complica-
tons set in it is thought they will re-
cover. Mr.. and Mrs. Foutz live about
four and a half miles from Deering.
