a big deal in cattle wss reported
by Jake ANA Roach E?tiH, the pop
ular breeders, whose stock farm is
on Winchester pike about FIVE
miles from this city. They sold to
Simon Weihi lightweight head Of
cattle at - cents per HI. The
cattle are 10 be delivered the first
half of next month and their
weight is estimated 10 average be-
tween l,ij0 aud l,5O0 lbs, This
VIII make the price almost 500
each and the total cost ally So
900. Mr. Weihl will export the
cattle.-Lexington Democrat,
Kentucky produces one half Of
the leaf tobacco grown in the
Inited States. Considering thi-
fact, it is not surprising to find the
largest tobacco farm in the world
located in the blue grass state.
His neighbors say that Leslie
Combs cleared $4,000 on his crop
last year. While these figures
may not be exactly correct, it Is
certain that Mr.. Combs is rapidly
accumulating a fortune by the
culture aud sale of this valuable
staple. Mr.. Combs has Governor
Isaac Shelhy'' lid placa on the
Lexington and x nhmond pike, in
Fayettc county. .fho farm con
sists Of $40 acres, airl from 800 to
800 acres Of tobacco are cultivated
each year. In order rot TO eX-
haust the strength OF the soil, the
tobacco is rotated between wheat,
clover and blue grass the third
season. The ulae grass restores the
sod and furnishes fine grazing.
In Sadditiou to this system Of ro-
tating the crops a large amount of
chemical fertilizer is used. 1t is
necessary to constantly enrich the
land for the reason that tobacco ex-
hausts the soil at the ratio OF II
tons Of wheat, to of tobacco In
a>much as i, gives back strength
to the soil in proportion as it de-
tracts from it, the stems and stalks
are very valuable as fertilizers.
Mr. Combs paid the manufactures
$1,000 last year for the stems from
his own crop.

attention to question of the very great
est Importance to the people of our state
refer to the threatened consolidation of
the Northern Pacific and the Great
M mo- Mrn. railway companies. To this end
the Northern Securities Company Of
New Jersey was organized to acquire a
controlling amount of the stock Of said
railroad company in exchange for its own
stock, and it was through this company
tnat the unity of management was to be
effected.
The matter was deemed of such vital
importance that immediate action was
taken to prevent the consolidation of
these companies. With that object in
view: Attorney General Douglas was re-
quested TO bring suit in the name of the
state TO prevent the proposed consoli-
uation. That such consolidation is
against the law is shown by reference to
our statutes.
The best interests of our people not
only require, but demand, Free open and
unrestricted competition for the trans
portatlon OF the products of our farms
this idea in view that our legislature
years ago passed laws prohibiting in any
way the consolidation of parallel and
competing lines of railway within our
state. These laws have not only been
held to be constitutional by the supreme
court of the United States but they also
declare a wise public policy.
The discrimination to bring this suit
was not entered into with any spirit of
hostility toward railroad companies. Our
state has dealt literally with them, and
has decided to the various railroad COM
panies more than 10000 600 acres of land,
or more than is under cultivation by our
agricultural population. In view of this
ana other privileges it is but just to de-
mand that these companies should obey-
our laws Minnesota granted these lands
and privileges to secure the blessings Of
competition; in fact, the franchises of
these parallel and competing lines were
obtained upon the implied understanding

The area Of the United States. in
Guiding Alaska, is about 100000 square
miles. The area of the states traversed
by the Northern Pacific and Gres North

plunged into a general eulogy of the
Republican party from the time of it's
organization, said a word about Cuba
and the Philippines, and then drew
real fire from the audience by declar-
ing his belief in the necessity of a
revision of the tariff. His reference
lily received than any other statement
in his address.
He painted very gloomy picture
OF evils resulting from Democratic rule
during the second Cleveland admins
station, which had, he said, been plac-
ed in power by the tariff revision peo-
pie only to close factories and over
turn industries. The lesson of the hor-
rible calamity was that only the Re-
publican party was competent to
properly revise the tariff.
He then turned to state issues, and
advanced as the first reason for con-
tinuing the Republican party in pow
er the fact that a new state capitol
had been built at a cost of $4,000, 900
without mourning any bonded indebt-
edneSS.
If the state credit was to be preserv-
ed the Republican party must be kept
in power, said the governor. There
has not been beneficial legislative or
official act in the interest of the peo-
pie that did not have it's origin in the
Republican party"
He discussed at some length the
state prison and binding Irvine plant,
informing the convention that one
Democratic administration had prac-
tically wrecked the sinstitution, and
that three days of Republican admin
lstrat1on had saved it on the verge Of
ruin. 1t took three pages of manu-
script to recite the awful havoc
wrought by the Democrats at the
prison, and three lines to prove that
all had been righted by the Republic
an party, or rather by Gov. Want SAINT,

part of A. r. Ferris, OF Brainerd, and
c. B. Buchanan, of Little Falls, the
leaders of the Sixth district phalanx.
During the morning the Jacobson fore
es stood like rocks. The Lac qui Parle
man had made unmiStakable gains on
the Iverson and Halden intrenchments
and bets were offered, without takers,
that the nomination was cinched for
the big house leader.
Strange as it may seem, the Reese
strength grew with the Jacobson re-
cruits, and the Sixth district people,
with candidate for secretary of state
nominated by default and another for
clerk of the supreme court, with a
desperate fight on his hands, took off
their coats and went to work.
They had less than two hours in
which to round up the struggling fore
es and break down the Jacobson and
Reese defenses, but they accomplished
it. Halden had been their second
choice, but to win they were obliged
to come in the open practically solid
for one candidate, with only sufficient
reserve to start a stampede at the
close of the roll call. Blue Earth coun-
ty saved them the trouble of starting
the stampede, and when the smoke
blew away Iverson was nominated
without giving Hennepin county a
chance to get to bat. Ramsey county
jumped on the band wagon as it was
going and FASTENED the defeat of it's
own candidate as reward.
d. l.. Miller, of Duluth, in the best
nominating speech made before the
convention, presented Halden. J. Adam
Bede seconded the nomination in be-
half of Pine county, which he said is a
part of Southern Minnesota. A. w.
Thompson, of Fillmore, had a hard
time of it with the nomination speech
for Iverson, but he insisted on reading
1T all and finished in blaze of glory.
Senator e. t. Young, of Appleton, pre-
sented Jacobson as the candidate, who
was q platform unto himself and
standing on the platform of public
