General Joe Wheeler created a sensa-
ton by appearing at the recent Confederate
reunion In New Orleans in the generals
uniform which he wore during the Spanish
American war. His idea was to show that
scctionalism was thing OF the past when
a former Confederate general could wear the
uniform Of the United States army. His
motive was good. but his action was not
tactful. It was resented by the Confederate
veterans almost to the extent Of insulting
kim. and he left the reunion and the city.

The american Society of Equity of this
city has undertaken a pretty large con-
tract in attempting to organize the farmers
Of the United States to run the price Of
wheat up to 81 per bushel. This is to be
done by the simple process of all the
holders OF wheat holding and refusing to
sell for less. This looks easy enough on
paper. but it may be difficult to secure the
cooperation Of several millions of farmers.

kind of Endorsement the State convention.
which meets next week, should give Pres
ident Roosevelt. Some are in favor of de-
claring in favor of his nomination, while
others would give his administration a
warm Endorsement and leave the question
OF denomination open till next year. SEN
ator Hanna has declared in favor of tho
necessity or wisdom of pledging the State
to any presidential candidate so far in adj
vance Of the national convention, and If
other Republican candidates should be
brought out il might prove embarrassing
to him as chairman of the national COM
mittee TO have Ohio pledged to Mr.. Roose-
welt. Speaking for himself the senator says
he is not and will not be a candidate.
His position in the matter referred to
seems to be reasonable and 1t is made
strong by the fact that he is chairman of
the Republican national committee. 1t has
not been customary for State conventions
to declare in favor of the nomination of any
candidate SO long before the meeting of the
national convention, though 1t Is some
times done, and, under existing circum-
stances. warm Endorsement of President
Roosevelts administration would probably
be entirely satisfactory to him. The Ohio
Republican convention Of 1891 Endorsed the
administration Of Presid ant Harrison, but
did not declare for his denomination, and
the State convention Of 1895 Endorsed 1.-THE
able, honest and business-like administra-
ton OF Governor William Mckinley" but
cid not name him for President. That of
1899 Endorsed Mr.. McKinley's administra-
ton as President very warmly. but did not
refer to his denomination the next year.
Nor did the State convention of 1900 go
further than an earnest Endorsement of Mr..
McKinley's administration as President.
leaving the question of denomination to the
national convention. Thus it appears there
is excellent precedent for the course pro-
posed by Senator Hanna.

MRS. BEDFORD PUNISHED

Sensational Attempt to Secure $780,

woman's Confession.

LONDON, May 25.-Mrs. Cunning Bed
ford. who was arrested at Queenstown
May on the arrival there from New York
of the steamer Umbria. charged with max
ing a false declaration of a childs birth,
was brought up on remand at the Bow
street Police Court here to-day and pleaded
guilty. She admitted that the child. was
not her own and said she had adopted IL.
Mrs. Bedford was fined $50.
Mrs. Bedford, when she appeared in the
dock. was pale and agitated. A formid-
able array of counsel appeared for both
sides. The prosecution showed that Mrs.
Bedford came to England from Paris in
December and that she had advertised as
Madame B., DESTROYS of adopting "a female
child" with the result that the Legitimate
baby of working girl in Isleworth was
transferred to Mrs. Bedford's keeping,
under the name Of Margaret Garrett. Mrs.
Bedford registered the child as her own
and took it TO France and then to Amer
lea. Counsel for the prosecution added
that as the above facts had been estab-
lished and the child could no longer be
claimed as the heiress of the Bedford es-
tate, they were not DESTROYS of severe
measure and asked the magistrate TO deal
with the case as a technical offense and
not send IL to the higher courts, where a
penalty of seven years Imprisonment could
have been inflicted. After consultation
with counsel Mrs. Bedford admitted her
guilt and the magistrate inflicted the heav-

COUNTY. EXHIBITS.
State Fair Offers Unusual inducements
to Counties This Year
From Tuesdays Daily.

One of the most valuable features of
the Minnesota state fair has developed
from the offer of the management of
special premiums for county exhibits.
Competition has ben keen among the
counties in the last two or three fairs
and at the fair of 1903 it promises to be
still more attractive. More counties than
ever will participate in the display, and
building on the experience of former
years, the exhibits will certainly be
finer.
The fair management offers 81 200 for
county exhibits to be divided pro rata
among the county exhibits scoring seven
ty points or more, and in addition makes
these offerings:
For the exhibit scoring highest in this
class an additional 5000 will be paid
for the exhibition scoring second highest,
$50; for the exhibit scoring third high
est 500; for the exhibit scoring fourth
highest, SIS; for the exhibit scoring fir III
highest, $50; for the exhibit scoring
sixth highest $25.
For taste and design in arrangement
of the exhibits in this class, the following
premiums are offered: lst, $50; I'd, $50;
Sd, $40; 4th, $50; 5th $40. Entries in
this class must be made by Saturday
August 22d, to insure space.
The fair opens Monday morning, Au-
gust 3lst with an address by U. S. Sena-
tor Fairbanks, one of the great orators
of the upper house of congress.
