from st. Paul with Battery A. South st.
Paul was reached at noon and the NEIL
and horses fed. In the afternoon the bat
teries drove into a heavy rain near Inver
Grove. Some Of the big guns became fast
in the sticky country roads and the men
had g. practical taste Of real army life.
Everybody was drenched to the skin. A
stop was made at Langdon for the night.
Leaving Langdon at $3.50 this morning

afternoon. The night will be spent at
that point and a grand entree made to

HARRIsON-HEARsT SCORE
First Point Gained in Contest Over
Illinois Seats. +.

st. Louis, July 4.-The democratic
national committee met at 10 o'clock
to take up the contests for temporary
seats in the convention. The main
fight was in the Illinois case, which
includes the seats Of John P. Hop
kins and Ben T. Cable, delegates-at-
large, and two delegates from the
thirteen other districts. .. +
< The Harrison and Hearst faction
scored the first success before the
committee. AS soon as the Illinois
fight was taken up it was agreed by
both sides that the better way to set
tie the matter was to permit it to rest
with a subcommittee which should re-
port to the national committee later.
The important issue then came In
the manner Of the appointment of the
subcommittee. Chairman James K.
Jones of the national committee Is
favorably inclined to the Harrison and
Hearst people, and they naturally de-
sired to have him appoint the COM
mittee. John P. Hopkins made Wig
orous argument in favor Of the APP
poirtmen of the subcommittee by
vote of the national committee.
The first test of strength came or
| the vote and the national committee
voted in favor of the Harrison and
Hearst plan Of selection by 25 to IL
Chairman Jones did not appoint the
subcommittee at once, but 1t will be
| composed largely Of men favorable tt
the Harrison and Hearst interests.

New York, July 4.-'Wholesome
American sentiment which demands

was urged in letter from former
President Grover Cleveland, which

Cleveland's letter was as follows: ,y..,,s
Princeton, NJ j., June 30, 1e04.-Dear
Sirs: l regret that my departure today
for my summer vacation and plans ]
have made for its enjoyment make II
impossible for me to join the, Tammany
society in it's celebration Of the coming
anniversary Of American independence.
1t seems to me that present social and
political conditions warn all patriotic
Americans that there is need Of a reviva.
Of popular sentiments and disposition ,ir
which the declaration Of independence
had its origin. which made 1t the founda-
ton Of great nation and in which is
found the promise of its perpetuity.
The intent Of that instrument was not
only to declare the equality Of man but
to decree it's maintenance, and the I'm.
dependence 1t proclaimed signified no
only our peoples freedom from a govern.
ment which lacked their consent, but also
their lasting freedom in political though
and action.
No one can be so blind as not to SO,
that in these days Of grasping and con
Stunning madness in the pursuit Of wealth
with It's consequent Indifference to polit
ical duty, there Is danger that our socia
and Industrial equality will be destroyed
and our political independence made tn
sport Of demagogs. 49, ~:
The celebration Of Independence Da,
should above all things be directed to
ward a resistance of these tendencie

independence and effectiveness in the ex
ercise Of political rights.

suits Of their work unreservedly to tn

Nothing can therefore be more startln
or can indicate a greater reliance b
designing hypocrisy upon popular degen

TWO STEPS
ast One Helms the Firss.

The Last One Helps the First.
A sick coffee drinker must take two
steps to be rid Of his troubles and get
strong and we'll again.
The first Is to cut off coffee aoso-
lutely.
That removes the destroying ele-
ment. The next step is to take liquid
food (and that is Postum Food Coffee)
that has in it the elements nature re-
quires to change the blood corpusules
from pale pink or white to rich red,
and good, red blood builds good,
strong and healthy cells in place Of the
broken-down cells destroyed by coffee.
With we'll boiled Postum Food Coffee
to shift to, both these steps are easy
and pleasant. The experience of g.
Georgian proves how important both
are.
From 1879 to the year 1900 my
Wife and had both been afflicted with
sick or nervous headache and at times
we suffered untold agony. We were
coffee drinkers and did not know how
to get away from it, for the habit Is
hard to quit.
but in 1900 I read of case sim
liar to ours where Postum Coffee was
used in place of the old coffee and
complete cure resulted, so concluded
to get some and try 1t.
1.-THE result was, after three days
use of Postum In place of the coffee,
trouble and in five months had
gained from las pounds to 163 pounds.
my friends asked me almost daily
what wrought the change. My an
swer always is, leaving off coffee and
drinking Postum in its place.
Eve have many friends who have
been benefited by Postum.

facts truthfully refer you to the
Bank of Carrollton or any business
firm in that city, where / have lived

special to4 The Journal
New York. July At develops
that the PLAIN of the 500 line to build
the GlenwooNd extension has in it the
ent sort. In connection with the
financing of the extension the direct
ors believe that they will be able to
put into the treasury of the COM
pany practically 100000 of free as
sets In the shape of per cent con-
solidated bondss guaranteed by Cana
about the same amount of cash.
The PARTICULARS of the plan are dis
closed by a New York director as fol-
lows: The entire cost Of building and
equipping the Glanwood extension will
be well under 100000 per mile and
may be as low as $4,000 per mile.
Taking $4,000 lter mile as about the
cost. it appears that for every mile
of the road built and equipped tC
specifications, THE company will put
into it's treasury $4,000 Of the bonds
In other wordss the company will
issue, or rather bias issued and sold
as provided in the mortgage. Suck
part Of tha* $4,000 per mile as /:
not used In construction will become
O. free treasury asset in the compa
ny's treasury
The same DIRECTOR and other direct
ors also are congratulating them
selves upon the fact that the 500 linz
is doing it's OWN construction rathe
than letting CO attracting companies d.
the work. The method of using con
struction comp anies, duly organized
and having stocks and bonds, is use(
by the Great western, Rock Islan'
and many other active western roads
The direct method used by the So
line has at least two advantages
First, it avoids the payment of com
missions to the constructing inter
ests; secondly, it avoids the 'necessit,
Of first creating and then getting ri
of some new stock. For every Or
ganized company must have stock a
we'll as bonds. Under the presen
plan the construction is financed alto
gether on bonds.
Moreover, thru the fact that tn
credit of the Canadian Pacific stand
at the top Of the list, the financing
done at price that Is remarkable
It is safe to say that no other oonl
pany in the United States can bull
new line at a. cost Of less than 4 pc
cent. Yet this road is building it
new line thru new country and pay
ing for 1t thru the sale Of bonds a
par bearing per cent. Pennsylva
MIA has never done better. The neN
construction of the Rock Island ha
been financed at per cent or worse
Even the Great Northern, with cred
unimpaired DUPLICATING debt, has don
much worse.

St. Louis, July 4.-Minnesotans In
st. Louis are spending a good deal OF
time talking state politics. They see
much to encourage them In the re-
cent action Of the republican state
convention and are now intent for the
first time in a presidential year on
naming a candidate for governor who
can win.
On account of the peculiar condi-
ton existing in Hennepin county they
agree that the gubernatorial nomina-
ton should go to Hennep1n man.
There is talk Of Judge Pond, OF
Judge Brooks, and Of S. j. Turnblad
Of the Svenska Poster. 1t is very
likely that sentiment among the dele
gates will begin to crystalize durlne
their stay in st. Louis and that the

considerable to shape the ante-conven.
ton campaign at home. 1t is con
coded that John Lind will not accept
