G i. COnger Frankly Declares the Meet
ing Was 10 Boom Blaine.
The fact that secret conference of poll.
ticians had been held in indianapolis hav-
ing leaked out, Col. Congcr, of Ohio, Il
member of the national Republican COM
mittee, and who made the most significant
utterance of the meeting, decided that it
was best to make public the facts of the
meeting, although it had been the deci-
sion of the participants to keep their move
ment secret.
Col. Conger said frankly that the pur
pose WAS to organize the Republican friends
OF Mr.. Blaine in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Kentucky, Wisconsin, Michigan and Kan
sas, in support of his nomination for the
presidency. He believed that recent poll
tical events indicated that this was "a party
necessity.

The ohio Republican Convention

The convention was unrutlled by any
Of the scenes of dissension and discord
that has been predicted by many for
some days past. For the first time,
probably, in the history OF the state of
Ohio, every nomination on the state
ticket was made on the first ballot For
every office except that of governor there
were from three to half dozen candi-
dates, but there seemed a tacit under
standing that under no circumstances
should any ill feeling be engenderel to
imperil the success of the ticket. and
early in the day the practice was estab-
lished of taking single ballot and then
when the resulttwas announced, changing
to the leading candidate and making his
nomination unanimous. In this way
there was not a second ballot for the
same Office throughout the whole days
proceedings. Foraker placed Mckinley
in nomination for governor and the nom
nation was declared by acclamation.
Mckinley then addressed the convention
and Sherman followed. being called for.
The committee on resolutions reported d
platform which was adopted amid
cheers:
THE PLATFORM

the past, re-atfirms devotion to protec-
ton and pledges support to the Mckin-
ley bill; favors legislation to encourage
and protect agriculture; demands protec-
tion to the wool industry; endorses the
amended coinage act of the last con-
gress; demands free ballot aud a fair
count; wants protection against foreign
panpers and criminals; favors economy
III national and state affairs. restraint of
unlawful combinations of capital; ample
educational facilities; reservation of pub
lie lands for Lomsteaders and restoration
to the public domain of unearned rail-
road lands favors liberal pensions; COM
mends Harrison's administration; en-
dorses Senator Sherman and republican
congressman and denounces the recent
ripper" legislature.
The ticket was then completed as fol-
lows: Andrew l.. Harris. Preble county,
lieutenant governor; W. +. Cope, Cleve-
land, state treasurer; Z. w. Poe. renomi-
mated for state auditor; John X. Rich

ANOTHER DECISION.
A Supreme Court Decision in the
Case OF Dhnstan VS.. North
ern Pacific.
The Judgment. of the Lower Court
is Reversed and a new Trial
Ordered.
Some Statistics Regarding the Tree
Business as Carried on in
Bismarck,
ANOTHER DECISION.
gainst the Northern Pacific.

The action of William II. Dunstan,
plaintiff and appellant, vs.. the Northern
Pacific Railroad company, on appeal
from Judge Rose, in the Stutsman coun-
ty district court, was decided by the su.
preme court yesterday. s. L. Glaspell
OF jamestown appeared in both courts
for the plaintiff and John S. Watson in
opposition. This was an action in the
nature of ejectment for quarter section
of land, coupled with claim for dam.
ages for its detention. The land in dis
pnte was Il part of the original grant of
lands by congress to the railroad COM
pany and was sold by it to Dunstan.
The deed contained reservation tc the
effect that a stri p of land 400 feet wide is
reserved for railroad purposes for the
main line or any OF it's branches. The
evidence in the trial showed that both
the main line and the James River VAL
ley road ran over the farm. Dunstan
brought IN action to remove the branch
liue, and the question largely turns upon
the validity of the reservation in the
deed being used for the benefit of the
corporation. Judge Rose directed a YER
dict for the defendant The supreme
court reverses the judgment and sends
the case back for a trial de novo. The
opinion is by Judge Bartholomew and
the following syllabus is filed:
In an action of ejectment and to re-
cover damages for withholding the prop
erty where il appears that plaintiff has
conveyed the land pending the litigation
he is still, under s 5i54 of the compiled
laws, entitled to judgment for whatever
damages the evidence may establish.
Where the Northern Pacific Railroad
company conveyed a portion of the land
granted to it by congress to a private
person, Preserving and excepting there
from, however. IL strip extending through
the same Il u II of the width OF 400
feet, thnt is, 300 feet on each side of the
center line of the Northern Pacific rail-
road or any of its branches, tu be used
for right-of-way in case the
line of said railroad or any of its
branches has been, or shall be, located
ON or over said described
premises. Held, that such reservation
covered one such strip only and that the
railroad company could not claim
right-of-way both for it's main line and a
branch line over the tract SO conveyed
under such reservation.
Held further, that, where separate
corporation entered upon and located
and constructed line of railroad across
said tract and subsequently leased the
same to the Northern Pacific Railroad
company, which latter company operated
the same as a branch of its main line
that whatever interest in or right to the
right-of-way of such road the latter com
pany had, it obtained and held under its
lease and not under the reservation.

A Growing Enterprise,

That the settlers of North Dakota are
taking advantage of the tree bounty law
is attested by the number of trees and
cuttings shipped from Bismarck this
season. james Holland, who has been
engaged in the tree business for the past
three years, states that thus far this seas
on he has shipped over 100000 trees
and 100000 cuttings to different points
in the state, and that he has orders for
more than that amount to fill this fall.
He thinks that he will be able to double
his business next year. 1t is good in
dication, at least, that the people of this
state are becoming Interested IN the
future, and with Il few favorable seasons
Dakota's plains will have enough timber
standing to b:eak the monotony OF the
landscape and furnish fuel for her
settlers.

A fearful accident is reported from
Switzerland. A railroad bridge crossing
the MOenichen. a small atlluent of the Rhine,
at Stein, in the canton OF Basel, not far
from Germany, gave way under the weight
of an excursion train, crowded with the
throngs of people who were on their way
to musical fete. The two engines and
the first car with all its passengers first
plunged into the river, while cars remain
ed suspended over the stream.
All the trainmen We're killed, and every
passenger i'll the submerged car was
drowned. Thirteen cars were saved. The
number of killed was at least, and OF those
injured not less than 100.

steamer Namoa five months ago, killed the
captain and mate and secured over 100000
of coin and goods.
A great crowd witnessed the barbaric
spectacle, which was made more repulsive
by the cynical testing of the pirate chie.
