and every train brings them to the

through here this week and as many
more will arrive here next week. The
Scandinavians generally locate il

IN THE DEMOCRATIC RANKS.

Fargo Forum: 1t was learned last
night, through the medium of one very
prominent in the councils of his party,
that the most difficult problem the
democrats had to tussle with yester-
day was the selection of the man
whom the delegates to Kansas City
should recommend for national COM
mitteeman. Nearly all of the larger
delegations had a candidate and it was
nip and tuck who should get the ma
:jority down pat. 1t looks as though
John L. Cashel of Grafton was the
lucky man, Mr.. Hildreth is for Tom
Kleinogel first, last and all the time,
and he can't be won over. On the
other hand it is said four delegates are
just as firm for Mr.. Cashel. Another
delegate is pledged to another man,
but his second choice is Mr.. Cashel.
It was also learned that NJ. "A. Wiper
man, auditor of kichland county, will
have a large following Of the faithful
at the state convention at Grand Forks,
who will work hard to secure his nom-
ination as candidate for governor on
the democratic ticket. 5iSS

BAD FOR WHEAT.

CROPS IN THE NORTHERN PART
OF THE STATE WILL NOT BE AS
LARGE AS EXPECTED. T.
Z. Grand Forks. June S.-The wheat
crop is admitted to be greatly dam
aged by the dry weather. State Sen
ator Murphy, who has made an inves-
tigation Of conditions, says: During
my % years experience as a farmer in
Dakota have never witnessed more
peculiar crop conditions than at the
present time, and am positive that
those who believe the wheat crop is
all right are all wrong. The weather
has been SO unnaturally warm ever
since the seed was soWn that the plant
has nnatured altogether too rapidly,
and from lack of moisture the plant
has not developed as it should.
The short blade is appearing on all
the stalks although the plants are but
six or eight inches high, and if the
present hot, and dry weather for ten
days longer the. early sown grain will
be all headed out, and then it will be
seen that instead Of ordinary plump
heads, well filled, the heads will not be
exceed AN inch or an inch and one
half long, and they will not be properly
filed. The only thing that can give
us even half a crop is rain, plenty Of
1T, and cool weather. II those condi-
tions prevail at once il is possible the
damaged plants may recupe crate
enough to produce a fair crop. AT
the present time consider the crop
conditions nearly all over the northern
part Of the state almost discouraging,
have talked with numerous farm
ers within the past few days and they
are all feeling very dubious over the
outlook A bumper crop is even now
Impossible. The flax crop, believe.
lis all right, and is the only bright side
of the crop prop osition . s8$S5
