the state has averaged 4 inches in
excess of the usual amount. For the
week ending June 8 the rainfall in the
state ranged from about an inch to
over five inches, the heaviest being in
this section of the state. Although
we have had this spring an unusual
amount ofrain, the crops are not dam
aged to speak of, and with good
weather from now on, such as we have
had the past week, farm products will

Senator Knute Nelson arrived home

Senator Knute Nelson arrived home
this week, and in an interview with
Pioneer Press reporter on the
gubernatorial situation says; "In
the contest that has developed over
the gubernatorial nomination there
have been no charges brought against
Gov. Clough or his administration.
It seems to me, under the cireum-
stances, that he is entitled to nom
ination, and I shall support him as
far as can. At the same time it is
only fair to state that | have no per-
sonal opposition to any of the other
candidates"

The gubernatorial ball has been
started rolling by Mile Laos county
instructing her delegates for Gov.
Clough. This is first blood for
Clough and Lee receives the black
eye. 1t is practically conceded by
the most conservative politicians of
the state and by friends of the oppos-
ing candidates that Gov. Clough will
be the next governor of Minnesota.
He has gradually gained friends
from the start, and as he has given
an unblemished administration, there
seems no doubt of his receiving the
and being elected. Stew
ems county will be counted in with
the majority and help to swell the
list.

has many friends and would make a

without saying, but the governor has
persistently refused to enter county
which is supposed to present a favor

had no scruples about going into a
combination with Eustis in the hope
of defeating Clough in his own county,
and if the governor paid him back in
his own coin the little steamboat cap
tain would have no just grounds OF
complaint. Fair play is a jewel
which seems to be exhibited only on
one side in the fight of the field
against Clough.-Ex,

ST. LOUIS, June 17.-Mr. Platt, SEN
ator Lodge and Governor Foraker held
a hurried but earnest conference in the
main ais16 of the convention hall, Just
off the end of the Massachusetts, seats,
before the convention was called to
order. The financial plank was the
subject of their talk. There is still some
little difference of opinion as to the
minor details of the phraseology Of this
plank, but the gentlemen engaged in
the conference deny that there is any
serious difference or any difference at
all that cannot be reconciled with ease
They assert that ON the one essential
fact of the endorsement of ''the existing
gold standard in words, there is no
difference of opinion whatever.
The New York Plank as Amended.
The plank on finance, with the
amendment proposed by New York,
would read;
"The Republican party is unreservedly
for sound money 1t caused the enact
ment Of the law providing for the resump-
ton of specie payments, in 1879 since
then every dollar has been as good as gold
We are unalterably opposed to every
measure calculated to debase our currency
or impair the credit of our country. We
are therefore opposed to the free and un-
limited coinage of silver, except by inter-
national agreement, and until such an
agreement can be obtained We believe the

WHAT THE A. P. A. WANTS,


Ask Recognition to the Extent of Insert
ing Plank in the Platform.
ST. LOUIS, June 1.-THE members of
the American Protective association
will ask the national convention to rec
ognize them to the extent of inserting a
plank in the platform which, after
conceding to all the utmost freedom in
the exercise of the right to worship God
according to the dictates of their own
conscience, will declare for the restric-
ton of immigration to the extent of ex-
Guiding all undesirable persons; for
changes i'll the naturalization laws and
their administration SO as to prevent
unfit persons from becoming citizens /;
for one general non sectarian free public
school system, and that all appropria-
tions of public money or property shall
be only for public institutions and for
the benefit of every class of the people.
There is large sprinkling of members
or the A. P. A. in the convention, but
they are making no opposition to the
nomination of Mckinley as was at one
time predicted they would.

participating in the A. R. U. strike OF
1894. If other railroads we're served
likewise they would soon drop their
nefarious schemes and respect the
rights of workingmen. This is a
decision of the courts of Indiana and
will be very likely to be followed in
other states by similar suits.

Prof. Hazen, Of the government
weather bureau at Washington, claims
to have method to prevent cyclones
and tornadoes. He would station
lookouts from north to south in lorna
do districts provided with dynamite
bombs, and whenever a threatening
cloud came up would send out man
to touch them of, thus blowing the
cyclone or tornado to pieces, similar
to the way they break up waterspouts
in the sea. His methods appear to
be feasible, but it is more than likely
that they work better on paper
than they would on cyclone.

MY SHRINE.

In southern lands where dwell the savage
nations,
Where superstition rules and holds full
sway,
Where Gods and devils all Of mans crea-
Iion,
Reign absolute to whom the natives pray,
The nercest there will bow in suplication.
To images of wood of stone or clOd.
And they alone feel worthy of salvation,
Invoking blessings Of their favOrite God.
where shines the midnight sun in faded
glory,
Where chilling shrieks the wind from on
the foes,
Where icy peaks seem battling grim and
hoary,
With natures forces nee the eternal SHOWS,
There far from all that makes life worth the
living,
Where foot of civilization mere has trod.
Are countless ones to craven ivory giving,
That worship christians ever give to God.
To bow in fevered prayer before some altar.
To RneeI with all that's best beneaths some
shrine,
And thus to strengthen when We seem to
falter,
With aid from supernatural source divine,
Has ever been throughout the countless
ages
With every race since dawn OF time the way,
The youth, the man, the prophets and the
sages,
OF every land to dieties must pray.
SO like all else that hath a spirit given,
worship whe:e to me seems best of all,
A happy home, to me my only heaven.
A childish laugh to me an angel call.
A loving wife, my only inspiration,
The loved ones growing meath my vine and
tree,
With these for creed for shrine and for saliva
tion,
III meet the end whatever it may be.
