Fifty one thousand majority for Bry-
an in Utah in 1896; and because of
this bargain victory for the Repub-
lican party in Utah four years later.
No wonder you republicans want to
leave it and join the American party.
Come out of it, republicans partake
not of its sin, and share in its plague.
For this question is coming back to
vex the republican party and it will
have to account for the bargain made
at Salt Lake City.
This self same year an emissary of
the republican party has been here.
"a voice, "Give the democrats a
shot,'D Why my friend the demo-
cratic party has already been shot to
pieces, at church dictation. When it
gets big enough and strong enough If
it then makes bargains, we will give
it shot.
say to you that this very spring
and summer that nefarious bargain
has been renewed. 1t started in
Washington in the winter. The
president of the United States wanted
a Roosevelt delegation sent to Chi
cago and as at that time the great
Mark Hanna was alive he was fearful
that Senator Kearns might take
Hanna delegation to Chicago. a
bargain was made by which the Smoo
investigation was to be postponed i
Smoot would take Roosevelt delega
tion to Chicago. The investigation
did not take place in Salt Lake. /.
Another republican emissary came
here this summer. He wanted th'
electoral vote of Utah and the cleo
toral vote of the surrounding states
We may not know what favor b.
promised, but judging from tn
shrewdness which has heretofore beel
manifested, it is not likely that tn
electoral vote will be delivered un
less there is something substantial
given in return.

BACK AT VIIADIVOSTOK
Russian Squadron Returns Unscathed
From Successful Raid.

Vladivostok, June 21.-Ly1ng in the
harbor are the three Russian cruisers
which have just returned from their
successful raid on the Japanese in the
straits of Korea. Vice Admiral Bezo-
brazoff took the squadron out June
IL. The first day the warsh1ps were
fog-bound. They reached the Korean
straits June Is and were sighted and
watched by a fast, three-masted Jap
anese cruiser.
Off the Tsu islands the Russians
pursued q vessel resembling a yacht,
which escaped 1nshore. They sank the
Japense transport Idsumi off Kotsu
island. The Idzumi was bringing back
invaded soldiers from Port Dalny,
105 Of whom were rescued by one Of
the Russian cruisers.
The Japanese transports H1tachi
and Sado were next sighted and soon
after the Hitachi which was filled with
troops, disregarding the signal to stop,
put on full speed. The Russian cruis-
the Hitachi, crippling her en-
gines and setting her decks aflame.
Still the Japanese refused to haul
down their flag. The vessel was then
seen to heel over and hundreds Of the
Japanese jumped into the sea. They
were all drowned. The H1tachf was
then sunk by a torpedo.
Jap Transport stopped.
The Sado obeyed the summons to
stop. She carried 1850 coolies for
railroad work in Korea; 1900 tons Of
coal, 1000 tons Of rice, railroad and
telegraph equipment, 100 horses and a
large amount Of specie. The specie
was thrown overheard by the purser.
Besides ten boats the Sado carried
twelve RATS, each capable Of carrying
100 men. AS soon as the crew were
ordered to leave the ships the coolies
rushed on deck, filled the boats and
headed them for the coast.
Admiral Bezobrazoff sent the boats
to the Sado to take off the captain
and officers. Captain Oguro, twelve
military officers and three Englishmen
In the Japanese service came, the
others refused to leave the ship. The
sible to save the lives Of those on
board, discharged two torpedoes
against the vessel. A heavy squall
broke at that time and hid the sinking
transport from view.
A three-masted Japanese cruiser
witnessed the whole affair. The Rus
slams caught her wireless messages.
The apparatus on the enemy's cruiser
worked necessarily and messages were
recorded on board the Russian cruis-
ers and were translated by some Of
the Japanese prisoners. One message
read:
1.-The Russians are in the straits.
Run for safety"
The Russians vainly tried to catch
the Japanese cruiser.
The prize court is certain to con-
denim the British collier Allanton, cap
tured by the Russian squadron during
the raid. She came out at the begin
ming of the war and went around the
cape of Good Hope so as to avoid the
squadron of Vice Admiral Wirenius,
and then engaged in carrying Japanese
coal from Muraron to Sasebo, Japan.
The cargoes were nominally consigned
in each case to British firms at Hong
kong and Singapore.
The Sado, according to Japanese
advices, did not founder. She was
beached on the east coast Of Okino
island and was eventually pulled off
and towed to port.

In 1896, at st. Louis, it was used to
help nominate the man whose election

brought us the greatest season Of pros

again at Philadelphia it was used
to renominate without opposition that

Delegates arose all over the hail.

THEY ARRIVE EARLY
Duluth Began to Wear a Heated
Aspect Even Today.

Special to The Journal.
Duluth, Mimi, June 21.-That the
democratic fight is to be fierce is
evident from the early arrival Of the
leaders on the ground. J. r. Bennett
Of st. Cloud, normal leader Of the
Hearst movement In the state, arrived
yesterday and has been in conference
with the Hearst leaders here. It Is
not generally known but T. T. Hudson
of Duluth has been one Of the strong
est Hearst organizers in the state.
L. A. Rosing came in last evening as
did also r. T. O'Connor Of st. Paul,
the latter announcing that the Ramsey
county crowd would not come in until
2 pm. Wednesday and would be head
ed by a band.
That the Minneapolis crowd pro-
poses to fight to a finish regardless Of
the outcome Of the Hennepin conven-
ton, was apparent when a bunch Of
fifteen headed by 3. q. Winston, Ed
Stevens, Elijah Barton and Mike
Breslauer reached here last evening.
This morning Congressman John
Lind arrived and tho he refuses to talk
is working against Hearst.

Democratic Clans of Minnesota
Will Settle Their Mighty
Problem Tomorrow.
GENERAL EXODUS ON
FOR HEAD OF LAKES
Opening Round at Duluth Will
Reveal Slight Advantage
for Hearst.
Is minnesota for Hearst?

This Is the Issue which will make
to-mOrroW's democratic state conven-
ton at Duluth one of the most notable
In the history of the party in Min
nesota.
The convention is scheduled to be
called to order at $3.50 p. m. tomorrow
by H. l.. Buck, chairman of the demo-
cratic state committee.
The battle will come up on the or
ganization of the convention, the cleo
ton Of a chairman to whom the con-
vention shall be turned over by Mr..
Buck. The Hearst candidate for
chairman will be decided on at a meet
Ing of Hearst workers at Duluth this
evening. Who the anti-Hearst ele-
ment will nominate for the place,
seems unknown by Henneptn county
democr To begin with, the Hearst
wing will have a slight advantage in
that Mr.. Buck, who will first preside,
Both the Hearst and the ants claim
the convention, the Hearst men as
serting that their majority will be
from 100 to 200; while the ants as
strongly obntend they will have an
easy working majority. The truth
seems to be that large number Of
uninstructed delegates will be in the
of an unknown quantity, and on whom
both sides count to make their claims
the stronger.
There are 9Ss votes in all in the
convention. Hennepin has by all odds
the largest single county delegates,
Hearst instructions. The second lar
gest single delegation is from Ramsey
county-7S, all anti-Hearst men who
will vote for Parker delegates, st.
Louis county comes third, with thirty
six delegates instructed for Hearst.
Next is Winona county with twenty-six
delegates, Of which number H. L.
twenty-three into line for the New
York journalist. The delegations
from the other counties are all much
smaller, and a large portion Of them
claimed by both factions.
Prior to the election Of delegates at
large by the convention, 1t will break
up into number of congressional dis
lrict meetings for the election each of
two regular, and two alternate, dis
trict delegates. Hennepin Is the only
congressional district which has
elected its delegates. Following the
district elections, the convention will
turn to the election of the delegates at
Hearst candidates for delegates at
large are Swan Turnblad of Mime
apolis, C. D. d'Autremont, former
mayor of Duluth, H. L. Buck of Wi
mona, and J. r. Bennett, Jr., Of ST.
Cloud, Hearst's political manager for
this state. The anti-Hearst or Parker
slate is not yet announced.
Colonel w. w. Williams, secretary
Of the local Hearst organization, with
twenty-five other Hearst men, left on
the early train this morning for Du-
luth. About a dozen more Hearst
delegates left on the 2 pm. train to-
day. The rest will go to Duluth on
the late train tonight in special cars.
The Hearst men will probably hold a
meeting tomorrow morning at the
Spaulding hotel to map out a plan Of
battle for the convention in the after
noon.
