ton out of order, but ruled also that
Mr.. Quinn was nominated by Judge
Timmony.

dulge in flights OF oratOry by placing
Milando Pratt in nomination. The

scientious, fair-minded man who was
familiar with property values and
would make typicaily good assessor.

FILLING VACANCIES AND LEVY
INC. AccECcnJEN-Tc
Judge Powers made a motion that
after the convention the county CON-
mittee have power to fill vacancies on

in the failure of any candidate 10 re-
soond. the committee strike his name
from the list.
This motion was laid on the table,

met here yesterday. The Democrats made
overtures to fuse with the PopuMsts, but
after a stormy time, the Populists refused
to fuse and nominated straight ticket,
as follows: For state senator, H. B. Ism
dahl OF Marshall county; for represent
atives, ]. M. Hendricks of Kittson county,
and M. p, Void Of Roseau county.
The Democrats nominated the following
ticket: John E. Ostrom of Marshall county,
for state senator; N. A. Goar of Kittson,
and Ben HOldahl OF Roseau, for represent
auves. The Republicans will hold their
convention In Hallock on August 81, and If
they nominate good men their election will

There are some very good men on
both these tickets. The Peoples party
ticket is first-class.
We have no doubt it would have been
possible to unite both these elements,
local ana temporary, in "Citizens' " or
Reform ticket; but the Democrats al
ways insist that the name Democracy"
must be buttered over the whole con-
Germ, while the Populists think that that
kind of butter is rancid and smells 10

RUSSIA BOARDING GOLD.
From the Nottingham Guardfa n

From the Nottingham Guardian.
F1nanCiers want to know why Russia is
accommodating such immense store of
gold, and certainly the question is not with
out interest to the politician. A huge gold
reserve implies that a great war will not
lack the necessary sinews. Why should
Russia, who already possesses larger
~N-ock of gold than any other government,
keep on adding to her store of the precious
coin?' 1t is two years since she began he-
Accommodations. and apparently she has no
intention of stopping them, for the latest
arrival of gold from the Cape has been
wholly purchased for Russian account Yet
with stock on hand salready reckoned at
G120, 100000, the need for this purchase is
not very apparent. A significant feature Of
the case is that whenever notice is called
to these Russian gold purchases they cease
for while, only to be resumed soon
public attention is turned another way.
Suppose that vast and semi-barbarous
country should buy up all the gold in
the world-what then?
A twenty-dollar gold piece would then
buy Minnesota farm.
Should the civilization of the world
and the happiness of mankind hinge up
on scarce metal which can be cornered
by one nation? A cube Is feet square
would hold all the gold in the world.

INFORMATION WANTED.
He Combined the MfIlers.

He Combined the Millers.
Inc st. Paul Globe (Dem) of Aug 1,
1898, in highly eulogistic article about
John Lind, says:
He was a strenuous worker for the pro-
lection OF the farmers and miHers AGAINST
unjust discrimination on the part of rail-
road companies, and it was generally under
stood to be largely at his suggestion that
the Minnesota Millers' association was or
ganized in the winter of 1928, putting an
end to the strife which had for a long time
existed more or less openly, between the
Old Minneapolis Millers' association and mil
lers of the smaller cities of the state, es-
pecially in the southern portion.
Will somebody be kind enough to ex-
plain to us how the uniting of the mill
ers of this state, in one solid organiza-
ton, could possibly be for the interest
of the farmers:
The farmers want the highest price
possible fer their grain, and the millers
want to get it for the least sum possible.
That is clear. How, then, will forming
a "m1llers' combine or trust" to en-
brace all the millers in the state, help
the farmers? And why should the farm
ers vote for the man who. according to
the statement of his leading advocate.
got up that 'trust?'

rance? We want to be fair, but we
can't understand 1t. Is it true that MIR.
