COUSINS OR poLLlvER.
One Of Them May be Selected to Sec
ond Nomin alton of Roosevelt.


ond Nomin alton of Roosevelt.
Washington, May 24.-It begins to
look as though no Minnesotan would
make the seconding speech OF the
Roosevelt nomination at Chicago, and
that Joe Cotton of Duluth will have
to be contented with doing something
else to show his loyalty to the presi-
dent.
A probable change in the program
has been brought about by the recent
developments in wisconsin and Hi
nois and the desire of the leaders to
have seconding speeches made by
well known men.
Another complication is the candi-
dacy of C. A. Smith of Minneapolis,
and F. G. Rogers, Of st. Paul, for the
coveted honor, and the leaders do not
want any more contention than can be
helped in such a small matter as
making speech.
Congressman Bede has engineered
the Cotton boom. and he recently
wrote Smith ana Rogers asking them
to step aside in Cotton's favor. Rog-
ers replied by wire that he was Will
ing but today Bede received a letter
from Smith in which he neither IN
sists upon remaining in the contest
nor withdraws. He simply says he Is
in the hands Of his friends and he will
be guided by them.
This change OF policy on the part OF
the leaders leads to the belief that
Senator Dolliver or Congressman
Cousins of Iowa are likely to be Sc
lected to make the seconding speech
as the representative OF the middle
west states.

Forest City.
If the citizens east of town, sur
rounding Pilot Mound will repair
their roads a little, thus making them
more passable for a mail carrier. they
will be furnished with rural free de-

Newell, rural route inspector from the
postoffice department at Washington,
made trip over the country to the
east of Forest City for the purpose of
determining the advisability of estab-
fishing fifth rural route from this
postoffice and though not stating as
certainty that the new route would be
established, nevertheless held out the

New piling. has been driven for both the
Cedar and Coon bridges and the bridg

and the further fact that surveys from
Storm Lake to- Rock Valley and Hud-
son have been made this spring leads
to some speculation as to the purpose OF
the company concerning the extension
OF the Storm Lake line. However, there
is thought to he little probability of ex-
tension this season.
