INDEPENDENTS ARRIVING.
coming by Team a Distance
OTIS MileS--Preliminary
Gossip.
uo Fusion News to be had.
Delegates Cautious and
UnjnStruCted.
From Tuesdav's Dallv.


Tho advance attendance OF the inde-
.,dent state convention and farmers
a,;ance began to arrive last night, a
dozeu or more by team, and Others by
trains Several farmers with their wives
came by wagon from as far east as Trail
county, distance Of seventy or seventy
s,e miles. They are putting up at the
hote]s of the city, and expect to remain
mill Friday or Saturday. 1t is said that
aftv men will drive up from LaMoure
county, and goodly number from Dickey
county. where the movement has gained
such headway that a lively competition
] s.isted to get on the delegation. A num-
her OF active Independents will come
from this county, AS spectators only.
From the few who arrived today 1t ls
easy to see that most of the delegates
will be uninstructed, although Walter
Muir has twenty delegates from Cass in
structed for him for congress, and Attor-
ney General Standish the delegates OF
Kidder and Morton counties instructed
for him for the same office. The unln-
structed portion of the convention will
be in the majority as the delegates want
to put up ticket that will win, regard
less of claims of candidates, and they
come here ready to look the situation
over and counsel together as to what is
best to be done.
1t is very plain, however, that there is
going to be vastly greater struggle to
get on the state ticket than two years
ago at the Valley City convention, and in
this fact lies grave danger, IN the opin-
ion of many independents, that they did
not have to contend with before, and
which will take extra care and wisdom to
provide against now.
Nothing new has developed in regard
to fusion. Most of the independents
no doubt see the folly Of nominating any
man as democrat, and who ls known to
be such. no matter how excellent a man
he ls. 1t would at once give truth to the
assertions Of opponents that the indie
pendent party had already lost its char.
acser as reform organization and de-
scended to the level of both old parties
Uncommon scramble for office. This
would lose the new party many votes
which they cannot afford to lose.
Among the Alliance men present today
are President Walter::Muir, Hunter; Sec
retary W. Y. Grill, Hamilton; r. B. Rich
a1dson, Drayton; II. NJ. Lund, Fargo;
John Heazlett. Glaston; N. D. Witham,

/ In to days issue We have the pleasure
Of publishing synopsis Of the thirty.
seventh monthly report Of the manager
Of the DsLamsr mines and ii Ill.
The property has been under The
present management since prIl /, 1891,
and during that time the number OF
days when the mill has not been run
has only averaged one per month. the
time required for the customary month
ly cleanup. Thi. is record of which
the manager may we'll be proud, more
especially so, since during that time thr
mill has been practically entirely re-
constructed, the engine, pans, settlers
and batteries having all been replaced
and the capacity Of the mill having
been doubled. All this work has been
accomplished, piece at . time, without
material delays.
The productions from the mines and
mill have been steadily increased while
development work has kept the ore re-
serves in sight continually growing.
The DrLamar Mining Co.'S. property,
in many respects, shows record which
few mining properties ever or any here
have equ<lrd, and the owners or share
holders have evUry reason for their con-
fidencs that this record will br kept up
for several years to come. The prop
srty has, with perhaps only s.ie Alasks |
Trsadwell mines, been the only prop
erty which in America has never passed
a single week without balance to show
on the credit side of the ledger.

Stopping a Runaway.

1t is asserted that in Russia horse
that is addicted to the habit of run
ming away has thin cord with q
running moose around his neck at the
neck strap, and the end is tied to the
dashboard. "At Rome" says this
informant, II saw in the Corso a
phaeton with two spirited horses
bolt. They were driven by lady,
and / expected to see instant de-
struction. But the lady coolly grasped
a thin cord and within thirty yards
the horses came to full stop. l
afterward met the lady at Nice and
expressed surprise at the skill with
which she stopped the runaways.
She treated it as trife, and told me
accidents from runaway horses are
unknown in Russia, as no one but IL
lunatic would drive without the
cord. When a horse bolts he always
takes the bit in his teeth, and the
skill of the driver is useless The
moment the pressure comes on the
windpipe the horse knows he has met
his master. - Farm, Stock and

ARomance of Bigamy.

DO you know the story Of the man
who had two wives aud was held
blameless? His name was Count Won
Gleichen; he was a Thuringian; and
it happened early in the thirteenth
century. The Count went forth, as
was customary, to fight the Saracen,
who proved, as too often happened,
the better warrior and took him
prisoner. Therefore the Count was
carried off to the palace OF Noured-
din. where he was made a slave and
set to cultivate the delicious shallot
of Ascalon in the garden OF the
Cairepe Caliph. His good looks and
the knowledge that he was a great
noble in his own country attracted
the attention Of certain princess,
daughter of the sultan. She heard
his simple story; she wept for him; he
opened his arms; she wept with him.
She offered to effect his escape for
him on one condition-that he should
marry her.
Alas. madam" - or your royal
highness, or your illustriousness, or
whatever was the lady's style and
title under the rules Of the caliphate
81 cannot" he replied. "At home
there langulsh for me wife and ten
der children.
"Why," she asked in maidenly sur.
prise, "what ails the man? AS II
another wife or two would be any
obstacle. Do not the laws of the
prophet-whose name be blessed
and the customs of the Cairene
Caliphate allow man to have more
than one wife,"
He yielded; he promised; she was
as good as her word; in a few days
they embarked together in ship
engaged by herself, and they arrived
in Venice in safety. Could - o
Christian moralist!-could this noble
knight desert the princess to whom
he owed his freedom? Never. He
repaired to Rome; he laid the case
before the Pope. His Holiness, after
considering the matter, granted him
permission to keep both wives and to
be legally married to both. And the
story goes on to say that they all
lived together in the greatest happi-
ness, the Turkish lady being child.
less, and loving her sister-wife's
children as much as if they were her
own.
