Butte, Mont, July 2:.22.-A new story
has come to light concerning Rev.
Fred Hermans. the Salt Lake murder
er, who preached Il sermon in Butte
and also disposed of the clothing of
one Of his victims at the same time,
and who is well known in Minnesota
and Northwest Wisconsin. where he
had wives. If the story is true Her
mans is wanted in Sweden for the
poisoning of his whole congregation.
Out of about forty persons who We're
poisoned about fourteen died from the
effects of it. There now seems to he
but little doubt that Hermans is one
of the monsters of the century, and he
is still at large. A Swedish lady in
Chicago, who saw Hermans' picture
after the exposure in Salt Lake,
thought she recognized something ia
miliar about the face. and finally on
looking over some old pictures. she
came across the same face in Il group
of Swedish clergymen. The most start
ling part of the discovery was that
the preacher was wanted for murder
ing fourteen persons in Sweden. He
had been pastor of a church where the
lady lived and lad given poison to the
church communicates. The preacher
disappeared and his identity was lost
until the lady claims she has discov-
cred him in Hermans, who affected
Butte people SO favOrably by the fer
vor of his preaching. After he tlisap-
peared from his Swedish congregation
it was found that he had an object in
his tiendisil work. 1t was found that
lie had been playing fast and loose
with the female members of his flock
and he feared exposure. so concluded
to kill his congregation off and make
q new start.

st. Louis, July q. Congressman
Towne of Minnesota, who. durin. the
st. Louis convention. announced The
severance of his allegiance to the Re
publican party. arrived here to-day.
He has been in Minnesota since the
Chicago convention. and has addressed
there large silver meetings.
''fhe silver movement in Minnesota"
said he, lis growing by leaps and
bounds. Among til, Republicans I
ton in favor of silver. The Republic
ans and Populists whom ! saw were
all enthusiastically for Bryan. in the
belief that it was only Ivy union of
silver forces that tine battle for the
restoration of silver could he won in
this campaign. The Populists. of
course. naturally want to maintain
their organization. hut they believe
that is entirely possible in all local
contests and in Il national sense. When
the nomination of Teller was talked of
at Chicago. Il nomination we earnestly
hoped for. the Populists everywhere
took up the idea and indnrsed il. They
did not think their organization would
he endangered. OF course there is
some differenc" between the nomina-
tion of an ex-ltepublican and Il Demo-
crat. hut fusion of the silver forces
on Teller. it seems to me. would pre-
nent practically the situation which to-
dry cOnfronts the Populists. Their or
ganizatiun would have been as much
endangered by Tellrr's nomination ut
Chicago. and subsequent Endorsement
here as Btyan'S nomination and in

his Endorsement will not jcopartlise the

The Platform.
The following is the platform ad-
opted by the convention:
We, the republican of North Dakota,
Ill convention assembled, reasseIt our
faith in tho principles of the republi-
can party and heartily endorse and
approve the platform as adopted by the
national convention, held at ST. Louis,
June 16, 1896, and pledged our loyal
support to Mckinley and Hobart, its
nominees for president and vice -presi-
dent.
Resolved, that the affairs of this
state have been honestly. economically
and carefully administered by the pres
ent republican administrati on and
when contrasted with the disastrous
results Of the late populistic admins
tration, will bear the most careful scru-
tiny.
Resolved, that we favor just and
all t taXsble' e'1,r property. #, Railroad com. n
panies and all other corporations
should be treated the same as farmers
and mechanics in the aprraisement OF
real estate and p rsonal property, so
that all classes share alike in just
and impartial assessment, and believ-
ing that the valuation Of railroad pro-
perty in the state is below that placed
on other property, therefore, we pledge
ourselves to increase its valuation to
onsh all amount as will place it upon
an equality with all other property i'll
the state.
Resolved, that we renew our pledges
to the support of the present prohibi-
tory law and urge the strict observance
and enforcement of the same and that
isasmuch as North Dakota was re-
ceived into the Union with q prohibi-
tory amendment in her constitution.
we demand Of congress that law be
enacted that shall prevent The obtain.
ing of the United States liquor H.
censes in states that have declared or
shall declare for prohibition.
Believing that the national republi-
can party is in favor of the largest use
of silver rs currency that can be
maintained on parity with the
money of the commercial nations Of
the world, we instruct our representa-.
tives in congress to support such legis-
lation as shall speedily bring about in
ternational bimetallism.
