Farmers HllE,lain That Uneln

ST.. PAUL, MINI. Aug. 14.-Farmcrs i'll
the Northwest arc now harvesting. They
find great difficulty in securing help. The
country in this section is ovcrrun with
tramps and unemployed people, and it
was thought that the unemployed would
accept places with the farmers. They
refuse to do SO, and say that wages are
too 1ow and fears are entertained that
unless the harvest excursions change the
situation the farmers will be unable to
take care of their crops properly. A des-
patch from Hallock, Mimi. says:
The average of of grain in this coun-
try is larger than ever before and the
crops fine, but unless the farmers obtain
more help a great deal will be lost. Big
wages are offered. but not ene-tenth the
number of workingmen necessary to har-
vest the crops is to be found in the coun

Named by tine Speakers

WAsHINGToN, ID. c., Aug. 17.-In the
House today Mr.. Daniels, New York,
opened the days debate with IL speech
urging the unconditional repeal of the
purchase sections OF the Sherman acts.
The first meeting of the house COM
mittec on rules of the 53rd Congress was
held this morning in the room of the
Speaker. All the members were present,
but only little progress was made. A
code of rules as agreed upon by the ma
Jorlty of the cOmmittee-Speaker Crisp
and Catchings and wait-was sub
mitted in proof to Reed and Burrow ws.
Only that portion relating to the pro-
posed increase of membership of the COM
mittce was considered at the meeting to-
day. Committees affected are those of
the ways and means, appropriations,
Judiciary, banking and currency, coin
age, weights and measures, Interstate
and foreign commerce, rivers and har-
bOrs and agriculture. In the send
Congress these members consisted of
. each, with the exception of the last
named, which had sixteen. A majority
Of the committee on rules have provided
for the increase to II members of each
ofthesc ccommittecs. The majority of the
members desired to consider the subject
and the comnittc diourned until tomor-
row morning, that they mi Ght have an
opportunity to do so.
Daniels was followed by Cooper, Fla,
Democrat, who announced himself as
opposed to every proposition made by
the silver men and that he was for un-
conditional repeal.
The Senate finance committee will
probably report favorably on the uncon-
ditional repeal bill tomorrow morning
and ask the Senate to fix day for the
vote, perhaps within day or two after
the vote in the House. The committee
has agreed upon all but the phraseology
of the bill, which will contain declara-
ton favorable to bimetalisrn.
After the ordinary routine morning
business in the Senate the report of the
Montana senatorial case was taken up
and argument made by pasco against
the right of Mantle to his seat under
the governors appointment.

RICHMOND, Va, Aug. 17.-The Vir-
ginia Democracy went into convention
at noon today to nominate candidates
for governor, lieutenant governor and
attorney general. The contest for gov
crnor lay between Representative c. T.
O'Ferrall of Rockingham, ]. Hoge Tyler

strongly favoring the first. For an hour

semble the streets leading to the hall
were throngcd with people on the way
to the place of meeting. The stage was
crowded with distinguished citizens from
all over the State.
