While the resolutions were pending
A. b. Robbins, of Hennepin county, Sc
cured recognition and presented the
following resolution declaring that
there was no division of sentiment
among Republicans as to the merger
issue and insisting that it had no place
In the politics of the party in the state:
Resolved By the delegates of the Re
publican state convention, here assem-
bled that we regard the declaration, no
matter from what source it may come
that there is a difference of opinion in the
Republican party of this state upon the
SUBJECT of merging parallel lines of rail-
way, and that there is within the lines of
the party faction favoring such CONSOLE
dations, which are menace to the in
terests of the people of the state, as I'M
warranted and untrue; and we do here
declare that the Republican party of the
state of Minnesota stands unalteraby
upon the proposition that any such at
tempt at consolidation should be resisted
by every means available, in defense of
the rights of the people of the state I'M
der the laws.
Robbins supported his resolution in
a speech but there were cries of mol"
from various parts of the house, and
the motion to lay the resolution on the
table was carried, though l. A Lid
yards suggestion that the motion to
lay the amendment on the table carried
with it the original resolution, was I'M
doubtedly correct.
The Grimshaw resolutions were then
| carried without division.
Thomas Vogeli, of Hennepin, had
resolution instructing the Minneapoli
| delegates to present the historic South
Side high school table to the Chicago
convention. The convention was will
| ing to hear the resolution, but not the
| speech that preceded 1t, and Chairman
| Hugo finally succeeded in obtaining
| Vogeli's consent to read the resolution.
The suggestion contained in 1t was
adopted.
For alternates to the national con-
vention, i. E. Dawson, of Perham,
| named E. J. Herringer, of Norman
county; W. B. Webster presented A. r.
McGill, Of Ramsey; r. B. Brewer
named Frank T. White, of Sherburne,
and Judge Emery suggested Chair
man Hugo, of Duluth. The convention
did not care and the nominations were
all carried unanimously and the con-
yention adjourned.

President Howard Elliott, of the
Northern Pacific, yesterday announced
several important changes which are to
be made shortly. The resignation of w.
H. Phipps, land commissioner. who

ness on his own behalf, has made neces-
sary a reorganization.

Phipps in the land department.
H. J. Horn, general manager Of the
coal properties of the Northwestern I'm
provement company, will become general
manager.
L. S. Storrs, geologist of the company
will have his duties enlarged and will
act as expert in all technical matters con-
nected with mining and the use of coal.
"Mr. Cooper, who was formerly West
ern land commissioner, has an intimate
knowledge of the company's lands and
outside properties, especially those in
Washington" said President Elliott, land
he has made a study of the question of
irrigation and the care of timber lands,
both of which subjects are assuming more
and more Importance in the states where
the Northern Pacific has lands yet I'M
sold. 1t is of Importance to the company
to have some one in ST. Paul who is ia
miliar with the details of the situation in
the state of Washington, and Mr.. Cooper
will be of assistance in looking after the
land, coal and collateral interests Of the
country there, as well as in the states
east of the Rocky mountains"

How Mexicans Test Eoas.

to behold a stall woman. who Is sell
ing two reals worth of eggs. pick them
up one by one, put one end and thcn
the other to her lips and hand them
over to the customer, who repeats the
same identical operation.
To the inexperienced onloolIer II
seems as If they were tasting the ex
tremitles of the egg. AS a matter OF
fact they never touch the egg with
the tongue.
The idea of the performance is
that when an egg is fresh one end is
distinctly colder than the other. The
end which has the air chamber is the
warmer Of the two. 'lhe human lips
are exceedingly sensitive to heat and
cold. and even the novice at this form
of egg testing promptly becomes a
capable Judge. If both ends of the egg
reveal the same temperature. that egg
may be counted as bad, as 1t Is a
fairly good sign that the air chamber
is broken and the contents spread
equally within the shell.

"Can throw out of the window with

saying with much truth.
A few out of the many dozens Of ways
of filing the teaspoon of waste are:
Buying articles simply because they
are cheap and expected to ''come in
handy" some time.
Using sheets for ironing tables, nap
kins for dish towels and towels for
dishcloths.
Using silver forks and spoons in the
kitchen.
Opening timed meats, preserves,
etc, forgetting all about them, and
leaving them to spoil.
Letting pieces of bread dry and mold,
and then brushing them away.
Placing brushes with the bristle
sides up.
Wearing the same clothing each
week as it comes from the laundry.
Using the same table and bed linens
each week as they come from the laun-

many of the breakdowns so often
