There were too many candidates in
the Stevens county delegation at Her.
man yesterday for the delegation to
work well. While they were strug-
CLING for supremacy among themselves
Grant and Big Stone combined and
carried off the persimmons.
Gen. T. H. Barrett, one Of the most
Intelligent and well-informed farmers
in this district declined nomination
for the Senate yesterday upon the
farmers platform. 1t must be pecu-
liar in the extreme when the best men
to he found among the farmers refuse
to stand upon it as candidates.
At the Farmers District convention
at Herman yesterday Mr.. Harris of
Grant county was nominated for the
Senate and Mr.. Jackson of Big Stone

Both of these men are unknown to us
so that we are unable TO state what
their qualifications for these offices
are.
To the paper up the street T. E. H.
writes: "He Sammy J. Tilden) will
also contribute largely to the expenses

lions experienced by these loyal and
patriotic Democrats as they con-
template the day when the bar'l will
be unheaded can be better imagined
than described.

completed and supplied with the best
that the market affords and has COM

vertisements In this issue,
E. F, Hill has recently purchased a
carpenters lathe. 1t is supplied with
a gig, rip and q cross-cut saw and is a
very complete and valuable machine.
Orders for fine carpenter work in
which there is turning to be done,
can now he filled at home and it will
be no longer necessary to send them
to Minneapolis or st. Paul.
Now that the candidates of the
Farmers Movement have been placed
in the field, we believe that the great
majority Of the Republicans will be
more than ever convinced that they
should look within the ranks of their
own party, without the aid ofany third
party, for proper persons to become
members of the next legislature.
Rey, E. R. Lathrop will deliver u
