to the difficulty in securing order. The
delegates seats were all occupied and

to make his report. He explained that
two supplemental resolutions had been
prepared which were not part OF the
platform proper. The first, relating to
the death Of Senator Gear, follows:
The republicans of Iowa have assembled
this year under the shadow of a great
sorrow, the death of our distinguished fell
low citizen, John Henry Gear. No man In
the state was closer to the hearts of the
people, no one in public life ever served
them more loyalty, faithfully and untir-
ingly, no one was truer to every public
interest, no one more efficient and jealous
in the discharge of every duty. His public
career forms a part Of the history of
Iowa, and in his death we recognize loss
to the state and nation.
The resolution was adopted by ris-
ing vote.
The second supplemental resolution
expressed interest in the welfare of

A Willow City despatch says: A
strange accident occurred last Saturday
at Isaac Rolston's place, about seventeen
miles northwest of town. MI. Rolston
had been up to the mountains. After
he had returned, put his horses in the
barn and went away leaving the horses
in the best of spirits. On his return
again found the horse badly bloated and
in a short time the animal died. On ex-
aiming the feed box, MIR. Rolston found
some white powder in it. Mistrusting
that some foul play had been done he
took the stomach out of the animal and
sent it to MIR. THOMAS Sims, of Bottineau.
On. examining the stomach Mr.. Sims
said the horse had been poisoned. On
Monday afternoon a number of the
neighbors of MI. Rolston gathered at his
home and having decided that a man
living a short distance away had a hand
in the matter of killing the horse, they
all went over to his house, took him out,
put a rope around his neck and propped
the wagon tongue up, and were about to
string him up, but he pleaded so we'll of
being innocent that they let him off.

Hansbrough% regretting his inability to

passed calling upon the senators and
representatives of North Dakota to in

Value of Live Stock.

J. J. Hill before the grain growers as
associon at Fargo: If you would retain
the fertility Of the soil you must have
stock. You must make the COW and the
creamery help more than Just to raise
the calf. I am glad of the progress
shown in the feeding of fat stock and
the showing in the northwest within the
past few years is far greater than you
would think. We carry from our lines
through the state $4,000 more cattle to
market from points east of Minot than
we do from all other parts of our lines
between there and the Pacific coast.
The number of hogs carried have been
trebled. Hogs are Il good crop and can
be grown every year. We should pay
attention to them and have the young
come in the spring. Fall pigs are not
profitable as they cost too much to keel
growing through the winter. Our lands
have become enhanced in value and
expect to see the valley lands sell from
$40 to $50 per acre, and they are worth it,

son why he should have changed his

to cover them on receipt of a statement.

was struck by a spent ball. The troops
entered the town with not a Mig in sight
when all at once the ball opened. The
soldiers were tired with a long march
but they went after them at double time
for a mile when they were relieved by q
