The political pull of North Da-
kota's senators and congressman was
in evidence at the Fargo convention and
further attested to by their personality
on the delegation together with Hon.
Alex. Mckenzie, who still shows the
scars of his encounter with the law in
the Alaskan incident. There is whole
lot the republican party of North Da-
kota can point to-but not with pride.

We note that the Minneapolis Jour-
nal says the practice of having United
States senators absolutely controlling
republican national conventions is
wrong in theory and dangerous in prac-
tice. This gives grounds for hoping
that the Journal will some day see some-
thing dangerous in having corporations
control republican senators.

The republican factional fights in
Illinois, Wisconsin. Iowa and other
states have brought on acute worry in
administration circles. Not one of the
republican leaders is delighted with the
situation and just how the rows are to
be settled cannot be surmised. In
Illinois the administration forces are
aligned against Governor Yates and the
bitterness that has grown out of the
fracas at Springfield the other day is re-
garded by the president and his i'm
mediate counselors as prejudicial to re-
publican success this fall. The repub-
lican situation in Wisconsin, from the
view point of the administration, is as
bad, if not worse, than Illinois. Sena-
tors Spooner and Quarles, staunch sup
porters of the Roosevelt administration,
are with the boilers and against the
state machine, which is chaffeured by
Governor LaFollette. Postmaster Cen
eral Payne, who is acting chairman of
republican national committee is likely
to be called upon to recognize one of
the Wisconsin factions. His affiliations
lie with Senators Spooner and Quarles
and the president. Politicians are now
looking forward to some executive orders
to the discordant republicans.

IT'S UP TO YOU.

A challenge to all factional leaders OF
democracy to come out into the open
and declare themselves is what may
very properly be termed the interview
that Hearst gave to the Washington
Post last week. Democrats from every
part.of the United States have loudly
acclaimed that the great need of the
party in the campaign of this year was
harmony and unity of front to the COM
mon enemy of capital against labor.
Hearst is the first of the presidential
candidates to openly avow that he con-
siders the welfare of the democratic
party and its success a far greater
need than the attaining of any personal
ambition on his own part. 1t is now up
to Cleveland, Parker, Olney, Senator
German and others to go on record as
to whether they will "bolt" or 'stand
pat" if the conventions nominee doesn't
meet with their personal views as to what
the democratic party requires. The
statement MT. 11edCSt AuluOElLcU Illc
Washington Post to publish Is as
follows:
Il am fer the st. Louis nominee, I
should, of course, like any other man,
be honored and gratified should the
democrats see fit to nominate me. But
I do not have to be bribed by Office to
be democrat. 1 have supported the
democratic ticket in the last five cam
paigns. 1 supported Cleveland three
times and Bryan twice. intend to
support the nominee of the party at st.
Louis, whoever he may be"
For weeks past Hearst has let the
public know his position as democrat
on all questions that are recognized as
live issues, while Judge Parker the fore
most of those opposed to Hearst's candi-
dacy has nothing to say. The conven-
tion at st. Louis cannot consistently
consider in naming as its presidential
choice any candidate who will not
unequivocally declare his feailty to the
party. The statement of Hearst strikes
a responsive chord in the heart of demo-
Gratis generally throughout the country.

SEEDING UP TO
NO. OAK. Line
SIXTY PER CENT COMPLETED IN
SOUTH DAKOTA.
Minnesota Progressing WelI-Red
River Valley Still Too Wet-The
Work, on the Whole, Much Back
ward, but This Is Not Thought to
Be Necessarily Serious.

Wheat seeding progressed favorably UNI
til Friday, the 22d, when snow and rain
stopped work, says the weekly Van Dusen-
Harrington crop. report. Saturday and
Sunday were excellent drying days and
with continued clear weather wheat seed
ing will be practically completed as far
north as the line between the Dakotas by
the end of this week.
It is completed new in southern South
Dakota; and thru the central district of
South Dakota and in southwestern Min
nesota about 60 per cent Of the wheat is
in, the percentage Of work completed de-
creasing further north to the Northern
Pacific line from Fargo west. North of
that line very little has been accomp-
lished.
The Red River valley is still very wet
and it is not likely that seeding can COM
mence there before May 1.
Turnout the territory the soil is full Of
moisture and in splendid condition. Bright
warm weather is needed.
Wheat seeding win be finished later than
usual but observers who have studied
weather and crops for many years believe
that since buds have not yet burst nor
other vegetation advanced, there has been
no loss to the farmers in this delay and
that when the growing season opens seed
ing will be completed and the plant ready
to take advantage Of the weather.

Winnipeg, Man.. April 26.-The weather
in the rural districts is improving and the
farmers generally hope to begin seeding at
an early date. Much farming land in
some sections will be difficult to work this
spring, in fact, it will of necessity be left
for summer fallow. Farmers who have
much blowing to do will be handicapped
as it is thought the ground will be too
wet for that work, at least for wheat
seeding.

SWinnebago City, Mimi, April 26.-Seed-
ing is well along in this vicinity. The
acreage sown to wheat will be about the
same as last year. Low ground is in bad

seeding has been done as yet but the
