to the hospital and there in the
presence of her brother-in-law and
his wife, Evered and a son of the
dead banker, and with Sheriff OIL
son listening from a position out
side the door, she confessed her
husband had not been a victim IF
fire but had taken corrosive sub
Innate by mistake for a medicine
and that she had wrapped the body
in sheet, carried it to the base
ment of the home, saturated the
rubbish with kerosene and set fire
to the pile. She explained her deed
by saying she feared talk among
the neighbors if ii was found out
her husband had died of poison
taken accidentally.
At first she implicated a lncaI
day laborer in the deed but later
changed her story to exonerate
him and in still later stories, ac-
cording to officials, she changed
the time of her husbands death
from 1890 p m. Sunday, Aug. II
TO 8 O'Clock of the same evening

corrosive sublimate to have causes

body was received by Valley coun
ty officials Monday and filing O
charges and issuance of the war
rant for the widow followed Tues

Communists and Fascists
Gain In Teuton Elections

Incomplete reports from the
German elections as we go to
press this week indicate heavy
gains for the communist party
and the fascist party. The
communist party stands for
the dictatorship of the prole
tariat while the fascists want
to establish blackshirt Mus
olini regime in Germany. The
communist party which had 81
deputies in the late reichstag
will have about so in the next
and the fascist strength is ex-
pected to grow from II to ov-
er 100. The socialist suffered
a considerable loss. The race
in Germany is now between
: the extreme parties of The
left and right.

Sheridan county.
Despite the cold wind
and the lateness of the sea-
son, in addition to the pow
erty that prevails among
the farmers, making the
purchase of gasoline something of
a sacrifice, the picnic was the
most successful in many years
both from the point of view of at
tendance and the interest aroused
in the Farmer-Labor cause.
Practically all the old war hors-
es of the Farmer-LabQr party
movement of Sheridan county
were there and hundreds of pro-
gressive Nonpartisan Leaguers of
North Dakota came to hear the
fiery oratory of William Lemke,
former attorney general of North
Dakota in the hey day of the Non
partisan League.

to a high pitch of enthusiasm with
her talk about the progress being
made by the workers and farmers

shouts of "go-ahead" from the
crowd, and ahead she went.

The platform adopted al
the convention sounds the
note of the class struggle
and states that until the present
capitalist system is abolished and
a socialist system of society es-
tablished on its ashes, the pro-
ducing class of the United States
will be faced with unemployment
and want in the midst of plenty
and that the Damocles sword OF
war will forever hang over their
heads.
Recognizing the community OF
interests between the workers and
farmers of all lands the conven-
ton sent greetings to the Workers
Republic of Russia and expressed
its solidarity with the struggles
for independence now being carri-
ed on by the peoples of India and
China.
The delegates unanimously
adopted a program that called for
the release of all class war pris-
(. oners regardless of what group an
the militant labor movement they
belonged to. 1t demanded that the
rights guaranteed by the constitu
ton be granted the negroes wht
are today at the mercy of thu
lynchers and bigots of the land.
The convention went on recorC
against the Farm Board for fail
ing to do anything to relieve the
distress of the farmers. The board
was branded as an auxiliary OF
the Republican party machine.
