Central Committee Meets.

The Republican county central
committee met in the Office of
VIM. H. Brown Tuesday afternoon
and fixed upon a day for holding
a convention for the nomination Of
candidates for county Offices.
After considerable discussion the
members of the committee decided
to hold the convention late. as it
would enable the farmers to attend
without interfering with their farm
work. The work of threshing will
not be finished in this county until
about the middle of October and
the committee believed the only
way to secure a full representation
OF leading men was to call the
convention at a time when the
rush of farm work would be over.
The call for the convention will
be found in this issue of the Inter-
Ocean.

New Candidates.

In the. column devoted to politi.
cal announcements, on the 9Th
page, will be found Judge Duell's
card announcing his candidacy fol
the office Of judge of the county
court for another term. Mr. DUEL
has filled this office for the past
ten years. Up to the present time
the salary has been $500, but the
last legislative assembly increased
this to $1,000, the increase to take
effect next year. The office Of
county judge is an important one,
and the salary has never been a
fair compensation for the duties
performed, and the Judge feels that
he should be given a term under
the increased salary. Most count
les in the state do not make a
change in this Office. When thew
secure an efficient official as Mr.,
Duell has made they keep him
there.
Emil S. Eich states this week
that he is a, candidate for re-nomi-
nation for county auditor. He has
filled this Office for one term and
has given eminent satisfaction.
He is peculiarly fitted to. perform
the duties of the office, being an
expert accountant, painstaking
and a very obliging official. He is
by the usages of the party entitled
to a second term and the Inter
Ocean does not believe there will
be any opposition to him in the
convention.
w. M. Anderson hands in his
announcement this week as a
candidate for states attorney of
Ramsey county, subject to the de-
cision of the Republican county
convention. Mr.. Anderson, al
though a young attorney, has
gained an enviable reputation
through the successful handling of
important cases since he opened a
law office in Devils Lake. He is
a clean cut young fellow and will
make quite a hustle for the nomi-
nation.

Washington, Jan. General A. w.

plorer, lies in a serious condition at
his home as the result of an assault
committed on him by about half past
5 O'Clock tonight by Joseph c. Furn-

Adams Express company.
Furnace, who lives in Baltimore. in
company with a friend named George
Murphy, spent the day in Washington,
drinking until late in the afternoon,
when they started for a disreputable
portion of the town. They lost their
way and finally reached the northwest
ern section of the city, beyond the
state, war and navy departments.
They first tried to get admission to
the residence of e. D. King, but being
unable to do it, continued on their way
up G street. Twice they went to the
house Of General Greeley. The first
attempt to gain admission was made as
a friend Of the family calling to pay
a visit to the daughter of the general.
Later they made an effort and persist

wise creating a disturbance until finally
General Greeley came out to expostu-

ON ARID LAND MATTERS.
Propositions for Government t O Cede
Lands to States.

Chicago, Jan. 7.-Governor Murphy
of Arizona arrived here today with a
party. including Senator Shoup of Ida
no, Senator Clark of Wyoming, Binger
Hermann, commissioner of the general
land office, and General F. C. Ainsworth
of the pension department, who have
been on a trip through Arizona and
New Mexico examining the arid lands.
Governor Murphy said there was to
be a conference of the governors of the
arid states and territories at Salt Lake
City on Jan. II to consider the question
of arid lands.
There is every prospect the confer
ence will be a representative one" he
said. "and we hope it will make some
progress in this question. There prob
ably will be present eleven or twelve
governors. Two general propositions
have been advanced for the disposition
Of these lands. One is to have the gen.
eral government undertake the work
Of reclamation by the building of res
ervoirs at the headwaters of the
streams, and the other is to have the
government cede the lands to the states
and territories for them to deal with
the problem"

CONTROLS B. & o.

The New York Tribune says it is alb
solutely confirmed hat the Pennsyl-
vania railroad has secured a block OF
10000 shares of the preferred stock of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. 1t is
further said that the Pennsylvania has
secured a large block OF stock in the
Chesapeake and Ohio. That road Is
generally looked upon as being con
trolled by ]. P. Morgan and his asso-
%ciates, and its ultimate absorption by
some strong company has been the
subject of discussion by railroad men
generally.
It is now said that the merger of the
Chesapeake and Ohio will be with the
Baltimore and Ohio, and that the Nor
folk and Western will also come in I'M
der the same merger. Then, owing to
the heavy holdings of Pennsylvania in
~terests in the Baltimore and Ohio stock,
1t is said that the two roads. formerly
rivals, will be operated In absolute har-
mony, and the Chesapeake and Ohio
and the Norfolk and Western elimin-
ated. everything will be serene in the
railroad situation in that section Of the
country.
