AitlSin.

Special to the Globe.
AITKIN, Mimi, March 17.-The rail-
road land taxation convention met in
Aitkin today and was very largely at
tended. Delegates from all over the

siasm for the object of the convention
was manifested. The body was called

Cooley was elected chairman and c. A.
Mackay, of Cloquet, secretary. Hon.

and made an address which was ap-
plauded to the echo. Mr. Gibbs said
that Southern Minnesota could be re-
lied upon to vote the right way in the
matter and that his best efforts should
be given in the good cause. Hon. J.

speaker, and spoke in a similar strain.
Then came Senator Barr, of Mankato,
who saved the Anderson bill from de-
feat in the last legislature. The sem
ator said he was no speaker and i'm
mediately disproved his assertion by
making splendid speech in which he
urged the breaking of all party ties il
they stood in the way of the success Of
the Anderson bill at the polls and
pledged the aid of his section to the
measure. Brief addresses were also
made by Alex MacKella, Of Norman
county; c. A. Smith, of Aitkin; f. c.
Kelly, of Itaska, and z. Sawood, OF
Carlton. The convention then pro-
ceeded to form a permanent organiza-
ton for the campaign of education be-
fore the people in favor of the Ander-
son bill. A. Y. Merrill was named as

letters from prominent men of all par
ties, expressing sympathy with the OBJ
Ject of the convention, We're then read,

TWO OF THE WORST REBEl
STRONGHOLDs IN NICARAGUA
CAPTURED.
1000 KILLED AND WOUNDED.
VICTORIES OF THE GOVERNMENT
WERE ATTENDED WITH TER
RIBLE SLAUGHTER.
ALL MANAeuA IN GALA ATTIRE.
The City Is In a Frenzy of Ratot~
ing and Excitement Over tho
Last News.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, March IT.
Inc city OF Managua is in a frenzy of
excitement and rejoicing over the news
received Of three great victories scored
by the government forces today over
their opponents, the Leonist rebels.
The city Of Metapa was taken today
by storm after two days hard fighting.
The capture was attended with ter
rible slaughter, news from the scene
placing the number of killed as high
as 1000 men. Metapa, situated in
the midst of high mountains not very
far from the frontier of Honduras, was
considered the stronghold of the rebels
and was relied upon by the insurgents
to fall back upon as a last re>9rt. The
rugged character of the country in
which the town Is located and it's al
most inaccessible approaches made the
assault particularly hazardous and un-
certain. The fall of the rebel strong
hold is greeted here as great triumph
for the government cause The town
of Mora also succumbed today to Ze-
laya's arms with heavy rebel losses.
The troops supplied by the president
of Honduras to assist President Ze-
laya are doing active service, and are
in full career down the west coast of
the Occidental department. They have
already occupied Viego City, north of
Leon, and are proceeding southwark.
They are expected to take Chinadega
tomorrow, which is, next to Leon, the
largest rebel city in the republic. The
old and the new towns together have
population of about $1,000 inhabi-
tants. Managua has put on gala at
tire to celebrate the news, and bright
colors are everywhere displayed to the
sound Of much cheering and drinking
of healths.
