Ad

morning in district coj^rt a po­
tion for a new trial in the case of
Frank Cruikshanks was overruled, as
was also a motion for a stay of judg
ment: and the convicted man was sen
tenced to serve a term
oI^quc
year and
three months at hard labor.in the pen
itentiary at Bismarck.
Cruikshanks was arrested about sixty
idays ago charged with making an as
sault with intent to kill. The com
plaining witness was Fred Martin, a
farmer residing south of Casselton.
The evidence in ihe case showed that
Cruikshanks was employed by Martin
as a farm laborer. About two weeks
before the close of the season he ap
proached Martin, stated that he was
'going to quit his employ and demanded
his money. Martin called the young
jinan's attention to the fact that he had
agreed to work untii the close of the
season and refused to pay him.
jCruikshanks drew a revolver and un
dertook to enforce collection. Martin
^secured a shotgun to protect himself
^and in a mix-up which followed the
controversy Cruikshanks was shot by
-J^artin. His injuries were of a trifling
^Wfiture and he was bound and taken
,fob Casselton, where he was examined

before Justice Walker and bound over
to the district court. At the present
term of court he was tried and found
guilty. Attorney Hildreth defended
rruikshanks. It is understood that the
(use will be taken to the supreme court,
and pending a decision of the higher
court the condemned man will remain
in the Cass County jail.
A motion for a new trial in the case
of the state vs. William Scott, convict
ed at this term of making an assault
with intent to rob, was argued this aft
ernoon by Attorney Frame for the de
fendant, and a new trial was granted.
Scott was convicted of enticing John
Fisher, a Lisbon fuel dealer, to the al
ley in the rear of the Washington Ho
tel, shooting him and then attempting
to rob him. The new trial was granted
on an error in the charge to the jury.
In the case of Folsjom vs. Sanders,
on trial yesterday, the jury returned a
verdict for the plaintiff last night for
$900, the amount sued for. Folsom sold
three quarters of land for the defend
ant and claimed $2 per acre as his .com
missions.
Court will adjourn tonight until
Monday morning, when the case ol
the state vs. Tom Davis and Edward
McCormick will be taken up.
APPOINT THE JUDGES,
Collier's Weekly: Our judges are
incompetent often and not infrequent
ly they are corrupt. Nothing is more
absurd than to choose such officials by
election, and to that mode of choice is
largely due a condition of the bench
which has many kinds of evil conse
quence. Justice Brewer, whose argu
ments against appeal were not well re
ceived, has returned to the point in a
magazine article, opposing appeal in
civil as well as criminal cases. What
ever might be thought of his position
under ideal circumstances, it is impos
sible to consider it with our lower
judges remaining wha#*they are. The
whole cause of justice is made more
expensive, slower and less ideal in re
sult by a system for which nothing
whatever can be said, except perhaps
that the people like election on general
principles better than appointment.
Two candidates are now selected by
party caucuses, which means usually by
party bosses. The people, knowing
nothing about which is the 'rftore ig
norant. vote usually according to party
lines. It would be as sensible to
choose a government chemist by elec
tion.

get poor judges and even
those are made worse by b.eiijg. fettered
with obligations to the 'men who se
cured their nominations and elections.
Still another evil result is that, once
a judge, a man is likely to be thrown
out in a few years, when he has learned
a little more than he knew before, and
the position has none of the security
which might tempt a strong man fond,
of the legal science. It is absurd to
have limited terms for judges. It is
absurd to have party caucuses and pop
ular elections choose them. Their po
sitions should be permanent during
good behavior, they should be well
paid, and thiy should be appointed.
The results of such a reform would be
fert for good in every city and county
in America, both in the administration
9f justice and in the pujity ,rif polities.

TRANSVAAL NEEDS TOOLS.
Great Opportmlty for American Maaatoctarerm
te Spppty That Trade.
©Consul General Richard Guenther of
Frankfort. Germany, states that Henry
Birchenough, who was sent to South
^frica as commissioner by the British
board of trade, calls attention to the
favorable opportunity in the Orange
sfrid Transvaal colonies for the sale of
agricultural implements and cheap
farm utensils.
The agricultural development of
these colonies will be tremendous as
soon as the projected railroads are
completed, and, as the colonies have
to start over again, there is now and
will be a great demand for light plows,
harrows and creamery utensils.
The Americans and Canadians, says
Mr. Birchenough, have recognized this
already and are trying hard to secure
as large a share as possible of this
commerce.
The commercial agent for Canada
in Johannesburg, James'G. Jatdine.
States that South Africa is a good mar
ket for condensed eggs, as fresh eggs
are from 3s 6d to 7s 6d (85 cents to

prepared from ordinary eggs by de
priving them of their superfluous water
and adding sugar. When being pre

the mixture quickly beaten it can then

eggs.
These condensed eggs are put up for
