the case was called. Lieut. Boerner
speaking for the department. asked
that the warrant be withdrawn, the
complaining witness having expressed
a Willingness to have this course taken
10 this Mr.. Oppenheim objected. and
then Lieut.. Boerner talked to the court
about the custom of having the mayor
Try such cases and that the case should
not be heard by the court until after

Lieut.. Boerner entertained and ex-
pressed was not correct one. The
mayor has no power to inf1ict punish

dismissal from the force, while the
offense charged against Ahern was a
violation of the laws of the state. 1t
might be the custom to have members
OF the force tried by the mayor when
accused of offenses, but this did not
mean that the police court had no
jurisdiction over them the same as
other persons who violated the law.
Mr.. Oppenheim insisted that the case
be tried and the court said he could
not take cognizance of the fact that the
complaining witness had for some rea-
son decided not to prosecute under the
circumstances. The case was finally
set for trial Friday next Ahern at
first demanded jury trial but after

that he did not want jury trial. Mr..
Oppenheim then took the jury end of
the game and insisted that the case be
heard by jury. 1t was entered on the
tab that there would be a jury trial
and Ahern was allowed to go back to
his beat with the understanding that
he would be on hand next Friday for

hereby instructed to vote as a unit for him" "
Then Mr.. Stevens was called to the
platform. He said the same things
that the Republicans have been saying
all through the campaign. He put In
good word for Mckinley and was
not forgetful of each member of the
state ticket. The principles Of the G.
o. r. came in for a long share Of the
speakers admiration, and finally he
thanked the delegates for their kindly
mention of his own ambition, and
promised all sorts Of nice things if
he should be nominated and elected to
represent the district in congress.
Then Candidate Stevens withdrew
amid the tumult of excitement and
enthusiasm, which Oar Reese and other
good fellows had created by leading
Off In three cheers, supplemented by
the traditional and time-worn tiger
for Fred G. Stevens. after which Niels
Gron was introduced. Mr.. Gron halls
from Chicago and Is employed in the
literary bureau of the national Re-
ular charge of the department caring
for Scandinavian literature, and is up
TO the tricks Of the free silver cam
palgners, who are after the votes of
the Scandinavians Of Minnesota. At
least Mr.. Gron assured his hearers
tnat ne knew what was going on in
this state and he warned the Republi-
cans to be on their guard for the wick
ed Democrats, who are making every
effort to fool the unsophisticated and
verdant Scandinavian by securing his
vote for Bryan. Mr.. Gron's talk was
good one, so the convention voted and
gave the speaker a glad and noisy
hand when he retired from the plat
form.
Just before adjournment Fred Zoll-
man presented the following:

THEY NEED RELIEF.
Daily Reminder That the ''POOr We
Have Away"

The absence of ice and snow does not
tighten the work of Secretary Hutchins
of the Relief society very materially.
He was called to see a poor widow,
siXty-three years of age, lying appar-
emily very i'll at one of the hotels She
had been in the city but a few days
and it was a question what was to be
done for her. A physician was at once
summoned, and she was made as COM
Portable as possible pending a further
investigation, when she will undoubt-
eddy be returned to her home.
A lady called at the office to see if
something could not be done for little
imbecile girl, who for the past two
years had been tenderly cared for in
the House Of the Good Sheperd She
has neither mother, father or any re-
lative who could care for her, so Sec
rotary Hutchins will take steps to gain
her admission to the school for the
Feeble Minded at Faribault, where so
many of these unfortunate children
live happily and contentedly.
Late in the afternoon a physician
sert in a report of a poor woman with
twin babies utterly destitute, the hus-
band being away in the harvest fields
trying to earn a little something for the
winter. An investigator was at once
sent to the house and things arranged
so that the poor woman will want for
nothing
