with cheers and shouts of "hurrah for
Schley." EVERYBODY joined in the
shouting and the depot attaches

difficulty cleared a passage way TO the
carriage which was in waiting.
Through mass of vehicles that had
been drawn up by curious drivers the

admiral. as he had Admiral Sampson,
for the success of that memorable en-
gagement of July ,. and took occasion
to say that ii was that battle which
brought about the surrender of Santi-

miral has been appointed. He went
over with him the general instructions

North Dakota Crops.

Bismarck, y. D.-The past week has
been almost as favorable for farm
work as its predecessors, says the
weekly government bulletin. The tenn
pcraturc was much higher during the
day than il was the week before. but
the nights were, as a rule, cool. High
winds prevailed good part of the
time, retarding stacking somewhat and
filling the air with dust, especially in
the western part of the state, where
there was no rainfall of any conSe-
Quence. Over the eastern part of the
state scattered showers fell during the
first of the week, accompanied, in the
nOrth-central counties, by destructive
hail storms, which did great damage to
all standing crops, and also some to
grain that was cut. Wheat cutting is
practically finished except in the north
EN- counties, and there 1t is well under
way. and the end Of this week will see
the most Of it in shock. In the south
ern counties threshing has commenced,
with varying results, Richland county
reporting yields of from fifteen to thir-
ty bushels per acre, while in Dickey
county. where the drouth was severe,
from four to ten bushels is said To be
the yield: but in all sections the grade
is said to be very good and the grain
quite free from smut

nation. AS a truce to the Colored voters

member OF the state committee.
The following is a synopsis of the plat
form:
THE Republican party of the State of
Missouri congratulates the nation on the
UNPARALLELED success of the administration
of President Mckinley. which has been
craftsmanship in both home and foreign
policy, and for the effective manner in
which the war with Spain was conducted
to an early and honorable conclusion.
And we hereby express our approval OF
the terms of the protocol imposed by
the president between this country and
Spain as n necessary precedent to sus-
pension of hostilities We extend our
thanks to the American army and navy
for their noble sacrifice in behalf of their
country and their brilliant achievements
in the Spanish American war. we re-
affirm our faith in the declaration OF
principles of the Republican party or
1896. We are in favor of
Increasing Our Navy
IN a size commensurate with our expand
ing commerce and with the magnitude or
the interests of this republic which need
protection. We favor an adequate system
of harbor and coast defense, ard the
maintenance Of regular and thoroughly
equipped army sufficient In size 10 insure
the defense of the nation at all times.

control of the Nicaraguan caLal by the
United States as q necessary measure TOT

our national defenses

roe doctrine in it's full extent as prin-
c'ple of our party and We believe that the
Tinted States should stand aloof from in
reference with the affairs and disputes
of European powers when American IN
terests are not involved, but we insist the
Monroe doctrine does not compel our gov
arpment to abandon or return TO the tyr
amy of Spanish rule any OF the helpless

stances in the conduct of the Spanish
American war been pla ,ed under our pro-
tectin- care. .and-we further. assert mat

the Monroe doctrine does not FORBID the
enlargement and extension of American
territory or the protection of American
interests in the Eastern well as the
Western hemisphere. and especially in
the Pacific ocean. where our great coast
line and the requirements of the COM
mercial development of our Western
states establish paramount rights and inn
pose on our government certain duties
and we, therefore. approve of the annexa-
ton of the Hawaiian islands and we favor
the acquisition and ownership of addi-
tional naval stations and pots sufficient
TO afford ample protection TO our rightful
and naturally growing commerce with
Asia and with other countries OF the far
East. We believe in the upbuiding of
the American merchant marine and we
favor such legislation by congress as
will accomplish that end"
