Minot, N. D.. Aug. 7.-Late yester-
day Afternoon John Staff commenced
serving his ten-year term for the MUIR
der of his wife. He was taken from
Towner to Bismarck yesterday, and
reached the latter place during the
late afternoon.
Before leaving Towner, Staff refus-
ed absolutely to sign papers for the
adoption Of his children. Requests
from people west Of Minot, asking for
the right to adopt two of the children,
were presented to him in the jail at
Towner for his signature.
II don't want to give up my chill
dren. I want to have them when 1 get
out of prison." were all the words
they could get from him.
This is the only time Staff showed
any real concern over the case.
In the meantime, two boys, Stanley,

county poor farm, while the baby girl

Justice c. j. Fisk of the North. Da-
kota supreme court as q candidate
for United States senator is not an inn
PROBABILITY. Many prominent demo-
Gratis Of Interstate are talking the SUI
preme court Justice as candidate in
the election next year for the seat now
held by United States Senator A. {.
Gronna, regarding him as the most
popular democrat in the state. and
most likely to be successful in the
first popular election Of a senator tnat
the state will hold.
With John Burke. former governor
of the state and present United States
treasurer, also being discussed as a
probable candidate for the senatorsnip,
the situation so far as the democrats
are concerned is decidedly interest
ing.
The name Of Justice Fisk has been
heard quite frequent Of late during
discussions Of the senatorial question
OF course nothing has been given out
by Justice Fisk on the question, and
1t is hardly probable that any state
ment will be forthcoming from him.
Should Burke become candidate for
the seat, 1t is not likely that Judge
Fisk would enter the race. although
some democrats believe that he might
be induced to make the race.

the party, explaining that the board
was occupied with other matters.
The strikers then appealed to Gov
ernor Foss, insisting that he order
the state board to receive the peti-
TONERS forthwith. The governor re-
piled that he had no authority in the
matter. The strikers arrived at the
south state late in the forenoon and
paraded up Beacon hill. A few young
women bearing American flags headed
the line. Others carried signs reading
I'VE want a living wage:" I'VE want
justices" I'VE demand arbitration
and I'VE are the Foss strikers from
Hyde Park"
The coming Of the men. whose
quarrel with the governor has been
bitter since they went out several
weeks ago. had been heralded and
at the capitol they found policemen
stationed at all the entrances. So
they halted under the archway.
A moment later sergeant at arms
appeared and warned the strikers
that they must not block the arch
way. He added. however. that all
who could be vouched for as strikers
at the Foss plants would be admitted
to the building. The men then filed
into the capitol and a committee Of
four entered the office of the state
board. When Chairman Rowland ap-
peared., the leader of the delegation
said:
We. the Foss Strikers. demand a
public hearing"
1T will not be granted" the chair
man replied. 1--WE are now consider
ing other matters. Usually when there
is a desire for public hearing those
interested show us the courtesy of
asking for a formal date"
The committee then withdrew and
the strikers marched to hotel in
the vicinity.

intends to snub John Lind, the presi-
dents personal representative as ap-
peared. in last nights official state

is that when the Huerta government

views as transmitted by Lind, a differ
ent construction will be placed upon
Lind's errand and Mexico will realize
It mission Of peace"
The president and Bryan are dis
posed to await the arrival Of Lind
in. Mexico City before taking any fur
ther steps in the situation. This was
made clear at the white house. Lind
will deai.witn the Mexican government
