Republican Convention.

Harrisburg, June 20.-The Republican
convention was called to order, and Da-
vld Taggart was elected president. Tag
CART said that he thought that the con-
vention had every right to finish the
work now uncompleted. 1t had been
said that it was q Cameron convention,
but in him CTaggart) the convention had
chosen a president that was not only for
General Beaupre FOR Governor but for
j. G. Blaine for President. Applause.
The speaker was not for Boss Wolfe or
Boss Mitchell or Boss Cameron, or any
other ''Boss," and thought people could
dispense with quite a number of them at
least until after election. Gen. Bcaupre
would have been nominated even if all the
bosses had been against him. Taggart
continued with the statement that 1t was
impossible for a single man to control a
convention of 25O picked men from tie
Republican party.
Upon the conclusion Of the roll call it
was announced that 227 out Of the 25l
delegates were present.
Nominations were made for a congress
man at large, which resulted as follows:
Libby 25, Brosius l6l, Todd II, Jacobs
%. The nomination of BrOsius was made
unanimous. Brosius made short speech,
at the conclusion Of which the convention
adjourned.

From the Daily, Thursday.
BY request of some of the citizens of
jamestown the Alert publishes call for
meeting at the court house this evening
to consider the subject of a Fourth of
July celebration. The Alert has before
urged the importance of duly celebrating
Independence Day in jamestown, and
would still continue to do so. There are
many considerations that should stimulate
our people IN this matter, both in social
and business point of view, and we can
not afford to let the day pass without an
appropriate demonstration. BY advertis-
ing that we will have a celebration here
on that day, the prospcctors that are trav-
cling over the territory will in large
numbers begin to head this way with a
view to celebrating the Fourth and seeing
it celebrated in the handsomest town in
Dakota. But if we do not demonstrate
on that day, not only these will head for
some other part, but our own people will
go away to one place and another. James,
town cannot afford to be snutfed out of
existence and counted a blank on the
Fourth of July. While other towns have
been working up their celebrations for
weeks, let us go to work and lay them all
in the shade, as we can do if our citizens
will unite in the effort Remember the
meeting tonight and do not fail to be
present, for in a multitude of counsel there
is wisdom.

"A Geologist's View.

Rev. b. F. lsattray, pastor of tue Bap-
tist church at Saltwater, Mimi, stopped
over Sunday in this city on his return
from trip out as far as Miles City, Mon
tana, on geological expedition, to which
science he has given a great deal of
study for the past fifteen years, IN the
state of Vermont, until coming west
year ago. The reward of his trip in the
way of specimens and sight seeing was
satisfactory. On aliglting from the
train here without thinking of seeing
anyone ha knew he was very much sur
prised to meet, almost the first person,
Dr. Woodward, his family physician in
Vermont, and who had only been here a
few days. Mr.. r. expresses himself de-
lighted with Dakota, and especially with
Jamestown, which he thinks is the pref
ticst town and site he has seen anywhere
along the line of his travel, and with
the people as we'll. He says all through
the territory, so far as he could observe
and learn from the people, the prospect
of the wheat crop was excellent, and it
seemed to him that some of the wheat
fields or farms extended along the rail-
road over twenty-five miles. People
who have never seen the great country
of Dakota have at best vague idea OF
its real worth and magnificent beauty
of landscape. ~

Nearing His: Ind.

Washington, June 2l.-Guiteau was re-
ported by the jail officers to-day as unu-
sually serious and uncommunicativs. No
person was permitted to see him but his
spiritual adviser, who spent several hours
with him. One Of the officers remarked
that he had an anxious and laggard look
as though he began to realize that he was
doomed. 1t is stated that the execution
will be private and only a few members
of the press and Jail officers will be per-
mitted to witness 1t. The gallows has al
ready been erected in the east corridor Of
the north wing.
Miss Chevaulier Of Boston, secretary Of
the national society for protection Of the
insane, had short interview with the
president yesterday with reference to
Guiteau's case, and arranged for an au-
d1encc with the president tomorrow,
when DR.. Geo. NJ Beard and others will
advance arguments in favor of short re-
spite in order to have a commission to
fully investigate Guiteau's insanity.

An Elevator Enterprise.

The Alert is informed that Mcssrs. Ho-
bart, Wells and Klaus are going to erect
a large grain elevator on the railroad
grounds along Front street, between Sixth
and Seventh avenues this summer, in time
for the present crop of wheat. 1t will be
quite boom to the town in that line, and
one that will employ a large amount of
CAPITAL and indicates a substantial faith in
the future of the capital city. We already
have one fine elevator, that of Bush &
Corwin, and the new one now IN immedi-
ate prospect will give jamestown facil1-
ties for handling the immense crop of
wheat that will be harvested in this vi
cinity and brought to this market this
year. There is no doubt but this will be
a grain market of great magnitude in a
year or two more, and it is gratifying to
see men of capital and business enterprise
preparing to meet the emergency that will
soon be upon us. Let the enterprises so
nobly and steadily on.

The Silver Bill

Inc silver 61u
Washington, June Fisherman made
the principal speech in the senate on the
bank charter bill. After expressing his
regret that the silver question had been
introduced lie deprecated any attempt by
congress to regulate the value of the two
coins, and referred to the experience Of
the past to show that legislation with the
third end in view instead of closing inva-
riably widened the gap between the
metals. He referred to the operations of
the treasury TO show that the silver certifi-
Gates were issued, upheld and protected
whenever authorized by congress, and had
no discrimination been made against
them, Notwithstanding all counter effects,
silver dollars had deprecated, though by
no fault of the government. Nominally
worth 100 cents, it's actual value fixed by
the market price as compared with gold,
was IS cents. The government coined it
at deprecated price and issues it at that
price regardless Of the value which it had
stamped upon 1t, thereby pocketing II
cents difference. If anybody had depre-
ciatcd silver it was the government. He
referred to his own efforts to enforce the
law and introduce the silver dollar into
circulation, and expressed his conviction
that the true course now was to put
enough silver into it to make it an honest
dollar.

Ought to Have a Fair.

The Alert wishes again to call the at
tention Of the people of Stutsman county
and jamestown to the Importance Of or.
ganizing fair association at this place.
If no more than track for trOtting races
this fall, it would be that much, and the
nucleus of fair ground1 in the future.
Fargo is having bonanza in the trotting
line now, and she is receiving a big adver-
tislng all over the country by that means.
Let us commence with a trotting race
this fall, aud then keep on making the
necessary arrangements until we can have
a first, class agricultural aud mechanical
far The immigration to this part of
Dakota will be numbered by the tens of
thousands, and by the next year county
fair would not only be a success in every
respect but it would also be profitable
ENTERPRISE to the stock holders. James
town must not allow her enterprises to fall
behind the demands Of the developing
country, but rather lead them. AS the
various industries increase with the popu-
lation, so should the enterprises become
more varied and extensive in anticipation
of them. The wonderful growth of the
town must rather be stimulated than re-
tarded, and this can be done by advancing
the enterprises in anticipation of future
requirements. The productive resources
of Dakota are barely touched as yet.
There are no doubt undiscovered and un-
developed resources of production IN the
soil OF the James River Valley that will
in the not far distant future exceed No.
hard, which is now the golden bonanza of
the country. 1t almost dazes one to con-
template the mechanical, manufacturing
and agricultural industries of the country
five years hence, but so far as they may
be anticipated their wants should be pro-
vided for, and one of these important
wants will be mechanical and agricultu.
raj fair. Our bonanza farmers, of which
there are already quite number in this
vicinity, would, we think, join with the
enterprising boomers and capitalists of
| the town in the organization of such a
society and in promoting such an enter
prise.

An Enterprising Young Man.

The Fargo Republican learns of an en-.
terprising young man who came to Dakota
three years ago without a dollar, and only
a few weeks ago signed a chequc for $780,
900. Think of that, young man, away
back in the states, you who are anxiously
awaiting the demise of your ancestor that
YOU may inherit not half so much, and
may have to wait ten times three years.
Think what pride must have swelled the
heart Of the aforesaid young man as he
put his $4,000 signature to that cheque,
and-but hold. We had not read the
article through. The paper states that
the young man is IN jail because he signed
the wrong mans name to the cheque, so
we guess you had better have few dol
lars ahead when you come, and be little
discreet about whose name you sign to
$4,000 cheques. Dakota is good place to
come to to make money honestly, but it
is hard place for forger and swindler.
The Alert invites the honest and indus
trious young and old, rich and poor, to
come, but with equal earnestness 1t advises
the forger and swindler to stay where he
is, or emigrate to Missouri

Cowboys Did It.

Caldwell, Kan, June 22.-Two men
supposed to be cowboys from Indian Ter
ritory, started disturbanc ce in Red Light
saloon here to-day, and the city marshal
went IN to arrest them. While attempt
ing to arrest one of the ruttians the other
drew his revolver and shot him through
the head, scattering his brains all over the
floor Before the alarm could be given,
the deperadoes mounted their horses and
started for the Indian Territory. Pursu-
ing parties were Immediately organized,
but so far the murderers have not been
captured.
