=I%>: ,. .s, u Respectfully, H. h. Aaker
The professor makes q serious mis-
take when he assumes that the vote he
received was a test of anti-saloon
sentiment in the Peoples Party. It
was not. II all other things had been
equal, his prohibition connections
would have been in his favor. As it
was, it looked to us of Kandiyohi to
be the one only thing in his favor.
Had he confined his ante-convention
campaign to that issue he would have
been more favorably received. But
he argued everything that a politician
would when casting for an ignorant
vote. He even argued nationality and
religion. Frank NJ. Eddy's general,
with one at Aaker's letters up his
sleeve. was watering at the mouth at
the prospect of the easy victory they
could win. The PROT. appeared be-
fore the Peoples convention Did he
talk auti-saloon? No, he argued
against Imperialism. he considered
that question the important one to be
decided and to defeat which he urged
the union of alt patriotic men of all
parties: But the convention saw fit
to find anothe.. man than II, "a. Aaker
to lead. Then it was quite another
story. The Professor now Is not
"patriotic any more: Now he wants
to defeat the choice of his convention
by dividing the vote. He will not
succeed. No se]f-respecting prohibit
Zionist would feel that he was vindi-
eating any principle by voting for
him. His nomination, in the light of
what is now known would have been q
sad mistake by the Peoples Party and
a calamityeto the temperance cause;
because his defeat at the polls. would
have been pointed to by the saloon
men as a defeat of the. temperance
cause. When the state of Minnesota
votes on a prohibitive amendment
(and this vote will come as soon as
the Peoples demand for direct legis-

REPUBLICAN, STATE TICKET.

The Republican state convention
held in St. Paul last Thursday placed
in nomination the following ticket:
For governors. r. Van SAINT;
Lieutenant gOvernor-Lyndon A Smith;
Secretary of State-Peter E. Hanson;
Treasurer-Julius Block;
Attorney general-W. B. Douglas;
Chief Justice-C. M. Start;
Associate Justice-L. w. Collins;
Railroad and warehouse commissioners
Joseph G. Miller rour years.; Ira r. Mills
(rour years.; @. F. Staples 1.-TWO years..
The nominations for governor, lieu
tenant governor, treasurer, attorney
general and justices of the supreme
court were made by reclamation. But
when 1t came to Secretary of State it
became interesting. There were six
candidates. The first ballot resulted
as follows: Langum, 1893; Hanson,
PSI, Molander, 210; Lommen. 2O6;
Nordin, 70; Sjoblom: go. On the second
ballot q stampede for Hanson took
place, and the Litch6eld banker
walked off with the prize. =
But this struggle was like unto a
zephyr compared with the storm that
broke loose when the convention tack.
led the railroad commissionerships
The chairman lost control of the moi
and sat down to wait until the crowd
had tired itself out. A policeman had
to. eject one man who was trying tC
choke an antagonist into acquiescence.
When the storm was over it appeared
that the railroads had landed two Of
their candidates for the four yea,
term and the farmers had been given
the lone two year term.
The ticket as whole will be re.
ceived with great favor-by the corpo.
rations. There is little in it to awak.
en- any enthusiasm among the common
people. Van SAINT is a chronic candi,
date for governor and the republicans
were undoubtedly glad to take this
method of getting rid of him. 1t was
better for them to do this than to sac:
ri6ce any of their men with a future
before them. OF course the corpora.
tions will do their best to elect Van
SAINT, but John Liud's splendid record
and strong personality will undoubt.
edly prove too much for them.

DO NOT SACRIFICE YOUR LIVE STOCK.

W MI SACktfuCe vOUk LIVE SIUCN.
Bulletin from Experimental Farm.
Many farmers, alarmed at the
shortage of pasturage, as we'll as oats
and hay crops, are already selling
their cattle. The only purchasers at a
low price for speculation, are dealers.
In recent years much has been done to
stimulate the growth of live stock in
Minnesota, especially the cattle indus
try. These cattle, and particularly the
females, are needed on the farm. If
sold now, how are they to be replaced?
Fat stock of all kinds is selling at
good prices in the market. While the
drouth in the Northwest is serious, do
not overlook the fact that Iowa, Me-
braska, Missouri, Kansas and other
states have an abundance of food of
all kinds, add the farmers in these
states will be willing to pay good
prices for stockers I'M the autumn
months. Keep your growing stock
and do everything possible to provide
food for it, which may be grown if
rain comes soon. Plant fodder corn
as bulletin No. 10 directs, also other
pasturage aud forage foods. Oats and
barley mixed, or oats alone. sown as
late as the first week in July. will fur
nish large amount of pasture. Win
ter rye sown at any time between now
and the first Of September will also
furnish much pasture. That sown in
August may also be grazed the follow
ing spring. A full crop of rape may
be grown sown as late as the middle OF
July. Rape should be sown with a
drill if one suitable can be had, but it
may also be sown broadcast, using
four to five pounds of seed per acre,
and covered with harrow. Use the
Dwarf Essex variety. limo rain falls
within a reasonable time and food
cannot be grown and it becomes neces-
sary to ellmuch of the stock, it should
not be sold at q sacrifice, but there
should be some intelligent effort made
by the farmers to ship this stock to the
best available market, keeping the
choice females. 4. sz1s5:ss Gaz @saszz@ 3

Il. n. AAkER.

One Prof. H. Fl. Aaker, defeated
candidate for the nomination for con-
gresham before the Peoples conven-
ton at Fergus Falls, is out with the
following letter Itso eloquently tells
the characteristics of the man and the
spirit in which he entered the contest
that we, reproduce it in full. Mr..
Aaker had secured the prohibition
nomination before he made it known
that he was an aspirant for the Peo-
pies nomination. He came before
the Peoples convention with the state
ment that he supported Bryan and
Lind in 1896, Lind in 1893, and fully
endorsed the Peoples platform adopted
in 1900 at Sioux Falls, and believed il
was the duty Of all patrioti people to
join and secure the defeat of the Re-
publican party. All this was we'll and
good. But when the votes were
counted at the convention twas found
that Aaker commanded but 8 triae
over one-fourth Of the votes. His am
bition was defeated, and be went home
to brood over his disappo ointment.
The following letter reflects his feel
ings:
:El wish to extend my appreciation 70 the
News: nnd other papers which made favorable
mention OF my recent candid acy, while TO the
many friends IN this city, & county ana district,
who have exerted themselyes il my behalf, I

CONGRESSIONAL PLATFORM.
The Declaration Of Principles upor

to Congress.

to Congress.
"We reassert ourfdelityto the prin-
ciples OF the People'sparty as formu-
lated and laid down in the national
conventions of that party held at
Omaha, St. Louis and Sioux Falls,
and congratulate the Peoples party
upon the rapidly developing senti-
ment of the common people regardless
of party utilization, in favor of the
important reforms which have been
uniformly advocated by the members
of our party, and as leader of the
united forces of freedom and advocate
of our principles we believe there can
be found no greater man than the
nominee Of our party, William Jen-
nings Bryan.
The American people are this year
confronted by the most momentous
questions they have ever faced. The
Republican party, under the leader
ship of Mark Hanna, has violated the
sacred principles of self-government
aud established principle of govern
ment by force. We believe with
Lincoln that IA government cannot re-
main half free and half slave The
stars and stripes must not wave over
subjects. All~must be citizens. People
that cannot become an integral part
of our republic should be given the
same right that we claim for ourselves
-self-government. We are opposed to
imperialism not only on account OF
the wrong it does to the conquered
people, but because it threatens our
own free institutions. It necessitates
large standing army, the plant tool
of the oppressor, and the greatest
menace to liberty.
We believe in bimetallism and con-
denim the financial bill recently passed
by congress-, because it turns over to
the national bankers the function of
supplying circulating medium and
regulates it's amount, and because it
strikes down one of the money metals
of ultimate redemption and thereby
changes the contract between the gov
ernment and the holders of securities.
We demand the enforcement of exist
ing laws against trusts and combina-
tions of capital for arbitrary control
of the market, and the enactment OF
whatever additional legislation is
necessary to insure the heathful play
of competition in all great branches of
industry. Believing that nearly every
article upon which there is a tariff has
gone into trust and the price there
OF has been enchanted from Is per cent
to 100 per cent, Wo therefore demand
that all trust articles be placed on the
free list. :.S* J. b E4 ...,-
