CONVENTION AFTERMATH.

North D8kOC8 ur6C SCaCo cO0VonGlO0
will go down to history as the most
spirited and earnest, and although a
closely waged battle, leaving fewer
heart burns and less bitter disappoint-
ment than any assemblage of the kind
ever held. The popular cry was for a
farmer for governor. Even General Al
LENS warmest friends felt the influence of
the popular wave and recognized in their
candidate an only weakness-he was not
farmer. Mr.. Miller of Richland had
not been an aspirant, but his name
seemed to charm the agricultural ear and
his popularity was strengthened with
every hour. Cass county, true to it's
record, presented broken front for her
favorlte son, and to Cass and Cass alone
may be attributed the defeat of General
Allen and later the defeat of Mr.. Tyler.
The fact of there being two prominent
candidates for congress-Spencer, of
Walsh, and Hansbrough, of Ramsey,
both leaning to Miller for governor,
but neither being able to secure pledge
from the Miller forces-made two
combinations not only possible but in
evitable. The Miller forces had gained
the temporary organization by electing
Judge Cochrane chairman and Mr.. Fl. A
Libby of Walsh, secretary. This was on
Wednesday. Conferences of the friends
of Spencer for congress with the Miller
managers that evening were anything
but satisfactory, and as a result caucus
of the Allen men was called at which
General Allen-as he believed and said
in the interest of the republican party
and the success of his friends respect
fully withdrew from the race and Hon.
E. s. Tyler of Cass-who had been pre-
viously decided upon by caucus of the
Cass delegation--was substituted. Thus
the Tyler-Spencer combine begun. This
combine also contemplated the nomina-
tion of Flittie Of Trail for secretary of
state, Booker of Pembina for treasurer,
Bray of Grand Forks for auditor, Cor
lss of Grand Forks and Wallin of Cass
for the supreme bench. This was as far
as the agreement went on the state ticket,
except that Dickey with her nine votes
had been flirting a little, and if she
could determine to fall in the arms
of the combine was to be accorded the
privilege of naming the superintendent
of public instruction. The Dickey
county boys, however, finally got into
ine-on the other side-with promises of
the same nature-which never material
lied.
The first test vote showing the actual
strength of the two combines was that on
permanent organization after the Tyler
Spencer forces had so generously adopted
the majority report of the committee
on credentials which seated "a friends of
Miller and Hansbrough. Mr.. johnson
of Nelson was nominated for chairman
against Mr.. Williams of Burleigh, the
candidate of the Tyler-Spencer ct al.
combine This vote showed the follow
ing division:

Crop reports from all parts Of North
Dakota are encouraging. The first
wheat sent from the Red River valley to
Duluth graded No. i hard, and it is
claimed by threshers and farmers that
this is the grade Of nearly all Of the
wheat raised in the state. The crops in
South Dakota are also much better than
predicted. The Dakotas are all right.

were so popular-ao one thought Of
making combination that didn't count
them in.

John Miller of Richland, the farmers
candidate for governor, none so strong
as he were presented. Not q complaint
is heard on any side. He is the peoples
candidate and his majority will be 49,
OO0-perhaps 10000. He was born in
the county of Tompkins, state of New
York, on the 29th day Of October, 1843,
of Scotch ancestry, who settled in New
York in 1888; was educated at Dryden
high school, New York; settled in Dakota
in 1880; has always been a republican
and was reared on farm. He was an hon
ored member of the last territorial coun-

ticket by 10000 majority.

THE s1GN1F1cAscE OF THIS ELEc.

11ONs tzslf
The TRIBUNE wants to say just word,
privately, to the farmers Of this district.
The nominations on the republican side
have all been made. The democrats
have made their nominations in this dis
trict, SO far as the Legislature is CON
cerned, have nominated clerk of the
court and by the complexion Of the dele
gates elected to the judicial convention
it is safe to predict their nominee for
judge in the Sixth district. This is the
first state election and involves more than
the mere election of members Of the legis-
lature. 1t would be impossible to nomi-
nate three men for the legislature against
whom there would not be, here and
there, personal opposition. It must be
remembered that one man cannot make
a ticket and if he could it is doubtful if
it would please anybody but himself.
Colonel Little, E. A. Williams and G. w.
Rawlings were nominated in the recent
county convention by acclamation. They
were not nominated by a convention of
proxies, but by convention of repre-
sentative farmers present in person from
every precinct but one in Burleigh coun-
ty. Colonel Little is banker and one
of the most public-spirited citizens of
Bismarck. He has contributed literally
to all enterprises calculated to advance
the interests of Bismarck and Burleigh
county, is a man of strict integrity. and
in every way worthy of the support Of
the party of which he is an enthusiastic
champion. The hard work and good
deeds performed by Mr.. Williams for
this county in the past, his loyalty and
patriotism are too we'll known and ap-
preciated to need extended recital at this
time. Mr.. Rawlings is one of Burleigh
county's respected farmers, honest, capa-
BILE and worthy. These are the three
men selected by the republican conven-
tion to represent this district in the first
state legislature.
Among the duties of the first legis-
lature is the selection of two United
States senators. The people of this Sec
ton have decided opinions on this ques-
ton, and the republican county csnven-
ton by rising vote unanimously in
structed their candidates to use all
honorable means to secure the election
of Hon. Gilbert A. Pierce for one Of those
positions. As the defeat of any one Of the
republican nominees for the legislature
would mean the loss Of one vote for that
gentleman, republicans having personal
grievances against any one of the candi-
dates should consider well the possible
effect Of their opposition before en-
listing it against the regular repub-
ican nominees It is hoped all
good republicans will rise above person
alities and stand true to the principles Of
the republican party, and for the success
Of the republican ticket.
Joseph Hare has been nominated by
the democrats for the state senate
against Colonel Little. He will 60
through the country and say, as he de-
clared in the recent democratic conven-
tion, that if elected he will vote for Hon.
Gilbert A. Pierce for the United States
senate. 81 BIZ

publicans Of this district against the al
slurements If this proposition.

He PRETENDS TO BE DEAD.
A Hartford DefauIter Said to Be Running

SAN FRANCISCO, August 9, 1Ss9.-The
Chronicle processes to have discovered
that Thomas f. Plunkett, who three years
ago mysteriously disappeared from Hart
ford, Conn, and was subsequently found
to be a defaulter in the sum of $500, 600, and
whose death was recently announced from
Mexico, is alive and well there. At the
time of his disappearance Plunkett was
president of the Hartford Silk Manufac-
turing Company, whose funds he misap-
propriated.
The Chronicle states that several letters
nave been received here from Plunkelt
recently, the last yesterday. The re-
cipient of the letters is Robert A. Empey,
who was a lieutenant in the Riel rebellion
a few years ago.
1t is alleged that Plunkett is carrying
on an extensive ranch business in Mexico,
and that the dispatch announcing his
death was instigated by him.
