Since the beginning of the
fiscal year July 1, the deficit of re-
ceipts of the government from all
sources has been S24,000,OOO less
than the expenditures. If the
same ratio of loss is continued for
the next ten months the deficit
will amount to $144, 100000 for
the full fiscal year. 1t may not
amount to more than half that sum
but whatever it proves to be shows
the wastefuI extravaganza of the
present administration.
For the fiscal year ending June
30, 1904, the Roosevelt admins
tration expended $177,OOO,OOO
more than the last year of the
Democratic administration, and
this was only counting the amounts
in three appropriation bills out of
seven. namely, the Army, Navy,
and Civil and Miscellaneous.
That extraordinary extravaganza
will be exceeded this year, for the
appropriations made by Congress
exceed last years expenditures
by nearly $120,OOOOOO.

The Democratic campaign text
book, in hauling Senator Gallinger
over the Goals as "a falsifier," says;
"The total value of our manufact-
ured goods sold at home is not less
S6,000,0O0,00O. The value of these
same goods for exports is only
S4.s00,OOO,OOO, and the difference
between those two amounts
Isl 200,0O0.000) is what the
American people pay for protec.
toni" In other words. American
goods are sold in Europe at one
quarter less than they be bought
for by American consumers here
at homel Is this to continue for
ever?

The Republican campaign mana
gers will have no less than fifty
speakers in West Virginia from
now until election. And yet fifty
times fifty cannot explain away
the iniquities of the tax legislation
just fastened upon the people by q
Republican State Legislature.
The Republicans are seeking to
dodge the question of taxation and
are devoting themselves to national
issues. The question of a mans
taxes, however, is more to him
than the subject of expansion OF
reciprocity. and the people want
light on the matter that effects
them most directly.
American manufactures are ex-
porting their goods to the ends of
the earth at the rate of nearly
S59O,OO0.0J0 a year. The ques-
ton before the people is why these
hoary-headed monopolies need TO
be forever ooddled and pampered

tect them from competitors who
they are underselling in the mark

A DRIVE In DELHI.

Nowhere in this county can the
pleasant side of farm life be seen to
better advantage than in Delhi
township. and a recent drive in that
town made one townsman realize
that life on the prairie is not what
it used to be. Dozens of farm homes
we might mention enjoy all the COM
forts of village life, including tele-
phone service and daily mail deliv-
cry. Prosperity is everywhere in
evidence, not only in comfortable
farm houses and barns, but in trim
lawns and tastefully planted yards.
The road on which the clan Nc
Kay have a row of farms is one ex-
ample, and west and north of Delhi
the farms of the Stewards, Hines,
Sundine, Oscar Borg and others at
tracted our attention.
The house of O. A. Hines, built
last year, illustrates the scale on
which the modern farm house is
constructed. The main part is
full two stories in height, 26x26,
with big one-story kitchen in adj
dition. The house is finished
throughout in Georgia pine, includ-
ing floors, except hall and stairway,
which is finished throughout In
oak. The roof and sides are in ced-
ar, the wall being made winter
proof with back plastering and am
pie air spaces. The intention is to
have furnace installed 10 the near
future.
"A new departure In barns was
started last summer by John Stew
enson, who erected a high base
ment OF concrete, with walls one
foot in thickness. His example is
being followed this year by r. G..
Rogers, VIM. Steele. and perhaps
others who are erecting large
barns. Concrete foundations have
been successfully used for barns In
Ontario for several years, and form
er residents OF that province are
transplanting the plan here, with
excellent results 10 far.

The committee on resolutions sub

astically endorsed the administra-
ton of President Roosevelt, ap-
proves of the public record of Sen
ators Nelson and Clapp and of Rep
resentative Volstead of this dis
trict, as well as of the administra-
ton of Governor VanSant. Another
resolution points with pride to the
record of Robert G. Dunn during
the past eight years, during which
time he has affected large saving
to the state in enforcing taxation
laws. The resolutions instruct the
delegates from this county to the
state convention tomorrow, to vote
as a unit for Mr.. Dunn, and to use
all honorable methods to insure his
nomination.

At the convention in the afternoon
the organization as agreed upon at
the caucus was effected, and the
delegates duly elected.
The convention was called to or
der by Chairman Schmahl of the
county committee, who eulogized
the national ticket, and also the
platform adopted by the Chicago
convention, and then touched upon
the three candidates for governor,
saying that no matter which one of
the three were chosen to lead the
party to victory it was the duty of
the men in the party to see that the
candidates were elected and he had
no doubt that from the sentiment
expressed at the convention every
Republican would do his duty along
that line. He pointed TO Redwood
county as one of the banner Repub-
lican counties of the state and trust
ed that the banner would not be
wrested from it through any dis
loyalty to the national, state or
county ticket this fall.

The Republican county conven-

convention to be held at ST. Paul
tomorrow, was held in Wabasso
yesterday, the convention proper
being called to order at high noon,
at which time the various commit
tees on credentials, resolutions and
permanent organization were an
nounced, and then recess was
taken for dinner.
The delegates commenced to ar
rive early-in fact, some OF them
commenced arriving the previous
evening representatives. of both
the Dunn and Collins factions, the
former feeling jubilant over the
fact that they had carried most Of
the towns of the county, and the
latter little morose over the reports
that the Dunn men had the majority
of delegates and that they proposed
controlling the convention and al
lowing none but Dunn men to go to
St. Paul, and in addition, pass reso-
buttons of instructions for the
Princeton candidate. The after
proceedings are what tell the story.
A caucus of the Dunn followers
was held an hour or more before
the convention was called to order,
and the organization was then
agreed upon, as well as what action
should be taken in the matter of in
structions and the selection OF dele
gates.

Return of Captives.

Tangier, June 25.-Ion Perdicaris an d
Cromwell Varley, who were captured

but said he was glad to get back. He is
greatly pleased with the reception ac-

him n great numbers.
Perdicaris suffered many hardships
while in the hands of Raisuli, although
he said he did not think these were the
fault of the bandit chief and he had
every comfort under the circumstances.
Varley appeared to be as cheerful and
bright as if he had just returned from
picnic. Both Perdicaris and Varley are
much thinner, especially the former,

National Republican Delegates
Nominate Peerless Candidates.
ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS
wild Demonstration Follows Nom
mating speech Made by
Governor Black.

CHICAGO, June 23.-The demonstra-
ton that greeted the nomination OF
President Roosevelt excelled anything
in the history of American conventions.
Governor Black pronounced the nomin-
alton words at just II :06 o'clock. AS
he did so he retired quickly from the
platform. But the words Theodore
Roosevelt" had not left his lips when
there was shout. The convention was
ou it's feet. Like the crash of thunder
that follows the lightning, the enthu-
siasm began. Flags were in the air,
hats were thrown up, men jumped onto
their chairs, women stood and shouted.
The air was rent with one continuous
prolonged shout from thousands of
throats. So mighty was the volume of
sound that nothing definite in the way
of articulate sound was distinguished.
At this point the band struck up. It's
strains, however, were only family dis
cernable in the mighty din. Then,
Chairman Cannon took a hand. Un.
furling tattered silk flag, he advanced
to the extreme edge of the platform and
began to wave it. The flag is the prop
erty OF the Lincoln Mckinley Associa.
ton of Missouri and it made it's first ap.
pearance at Republican National con-
vention IN 1860, when Lincoln was nom-
mated. 1t was then carried by the
Missouri delegation and was waved
over the platform on that occasion as on
this. 1t was fuel to the flame of en-
thusiasm and the volume OF sound in
creased.
The front of the platform was occu
pied by an immense crayon portrait of
President Roosevelt, borne aloft by
three men. This gave fresh impetus to
the continuous shouting.
The front of the stage was next given
over to young man with a megaphone
and flag. As he swung the banner
from side to side he shouted the name
Roosevelt" At each swing of the
flag the name was repeated. 1t was
soon taken up by the delegates in front
and spread to those in the rear, and in
twinkle the whole assemblrge was
shouting Roosevelt" Roosevelt"
After twenty minutes Chairman Can
non tried to restore order, but was un.
able to do so for fully five minutes
more.
The roll call ended with no name
but that of Roosevelt, who
received total of 994, the entire vote
of the convention.
The roll being called on nomination
for vice. president, all the states passed |
for Iowa, when Senator Dolliver arose
to place Fairbanks of Indiana in nomin-
alton.
At 2:07 D. M, Fairbanks was nomin-
ated by acclamation. Depew asked for |
a suspension of the roll call and nom-
nation of Fairbanks by acclamation,
which was done.
The new republican national com
mittee met Immediately after adjourn
nent and elected Cortelyou chairman.
