This is practically the situation Of
the Dakota farmer at the present
time-a condition Of affairs brought
about by vicious state legislation in
the interest Of elevator and railroad
companies. The farmers have it in
their power to remedy this evil by
electing the Democratic Independent

they will do it.

Democrats Of Bottineau count

Democrats Of B)ttineau county,
next Thursday evening at the eau
cuses, yoa will be called upon to take
the initiative i'll selecting, your Off
cars for the next two years. Right
here is where you should get in your
work. Between now and that even
iny take an hour, sit down and thipk
carefully what you want and then at
tend the meeting and select delegates
who will carry out your wishes. The
hap-hazard method of choosing dele
gates il just as dangerous, if not ore
SO, than the machine cut and dried
plan. Men are wanted to attend the
o Tention who will weigh matters
carefully, and act, not SO much for
the interest of party. or even of men,
as for the good Of the county. We
believe the officers elected by the
democratic party two years ago have
proved themselves efficient, court
eous, painstaking and economical of.
fcials, and we'll deserve a renomina-
ton; but if we can better ourselves
it is quite in order to do 50. The
question then arises, can it be done?
There S not the slightest doubt but
that the men nominated by the con-
vention will be elected, hence the
great necessity Of using the utm>st
care in their selection.

 THE METHODIST CONFERENCE. Condemnation of the President for
 Signing the Chinese Exclusion Hill
 A Long Discussion by Eminent
 Divines.
 OMAHA, May 6.-The Methodist general conference spent more than an hour this morning in the reading of the minutes and itemizing the many resolutions, appeals and memorials presented yesterday.
 The action of President Harrison in signing the Chinese exclusion act last night within few hours of its delivery to him was severely criticised by the delegates. The committee appointed yesterday to prepare memorial protesting against the bill telegraphed the president last night concerning the matter, and they feel cer- tain that the president has directly snubbed them. An excited delegate this morning vehemently declared that the bill was signed 'solely to catch the Irish vote."
 During the discussion Dr. Leonard de- nounced the president and congress and said the Chinese had the same right here as other foreigners. He believed this con ference should take action in no uncertain tone. Dr. Swindels again made an earnest plea for action. He argued that unless some action was taken the country would regard the conference as approving the bill. The bill, he said, was the most in- quintous measure ever passed by con- gress.
 Dr. Edwards of Chicago said it was political measure. "This bill," he added, t'is sop to the steerage now unloading at New York. It was rushed through 6 democratic house, passed by our noble senators and signed by our well-nigh un- impeaehable president, solely for political effect"
 Dr. Payne of Cincinnati, O., said the church should show that it was not controlled by any partisan bias and that no political party manages it. He it does not approve such political meas ures and moved to send the matter to the church committee. He was wildly applauded. Dr. Buckley denounced all reference to politics, saying that the man who would try to build up one party or tear down another in this conference is nothing but demsgogue Finally the matter was referred to special committee consisting of five ministers and four lay men. There was 8 universal sigh of relief when the question was temporarily dis posed of.
 At one o'clock the conference adjourned.
 This evening the conference rendered 8 reception to Dr. w. F. Moulton, the dis tinguished delegate from England.

 KEoKuk, Iowa, May 6.-The Mississippi river has been rapidly rising for the past two days, approaching the extreme high water mark. Tonight it stands if teen feet four inches. The low lands are submerged and crops ruin- ed. Farmers have taken their stock and families to high ground. The small levees along the Des Moines and Fox rivers have broken and large tracts of land are sub. merged. The main levee protecting Il, ,00C acres is yet safe.

INDICTED FOR GRAND LARCENY.

Arrest of the EX.President of the
 Bank of Harlem-He is Alleged to
 Have Misappropriated I've mt '
 Thousand Dollars Belonging to the
 Institution-Statem of the Cash.
 fer.
 NEW YORK, May 6.-Charles Fl. Pink ham, ex-president of the Bank of Harlem, was to-day indicted for grand larceny in the first degree. A bench warrant was issued and Mr. Pinkham wac arrested. He is allaged to have misappropriated money belonging to the bank during his incum- bency-1ssS-1seO The banks loss, it is said, is about $20,0O0
 Bank Superintendent Preston and W. P. St. John of the Mercantile National bank and the directors of the Harlem bank are the complainsnts. The charge grows out of transaction in 1889 and came to the surface in the consolidation with the Hamilton bank.
 Cashier Howell, in 8 statement to the grand jury, said on August 3. 1889, Pink ham issued his check on the Bank of Hsr- lem for $14, 800 in exchange for two notes of A. Fl. Wood, a theatrical man now in prison for swindling in connection Wlth tuo cEcCtiOu oL d tuchtcT. He accommodated others in the same way, the whole amount involved being stated at $2S, 1000. By giving these cheeks Pinkham overdrew his accounts. The cashier also asserted that Pinkham loaned money to himself on 6 note for $9,- 900 of Edwin H. Corey, payable to Pink ham. Corey and Pinkham were formerly in business together in Boston. He stated that these loans were forced by Pinkham by virtue of his position as president and without the approval of any of the di- rectors. When interviewed after his ar rest MT. Pinkham admitted there was 6 deficit in the hanks accounts, but he said 1t appeared strange that after two years the bank should take such action against him when the directors have known the all along. Pinkham is forty years old and at present general agent for the Equitable Insurance com pany. Bail was fixed at g, 800.
