Democrats in Convention.

Yearsley as chairman and II. Z.
Eitel secretary.
The fight of the convention was
made over the county division
plank which was inserted In the
platform, Not that county division
was an issue at this time, but the
ring leaders of democracy at the
county seat seemed inclined to give
a decided slap to those of their par
ty at other points who had been
advocates of division two years ago.
On the adoption of the anti-division
plank fourteen delegates from Oak
esdale, headed by E. J. Doneen,
walked out of the convention. The
platform adopted follows;
We, the democrats of Whitman
county in convention assembled, do
hereby endorse the national plat
form and candidates of our party.
We believe that the paramount
and all-important issuein this cam
paign is the question of whether the
people shall regulate the corpora
tons, or the corporations dominate
the people. We emphatically as
sert the right of the people to regu-
late the corporations and therefore
demand: First, the creation of
railroad commission to consist Of
three members, to be appointed by
the governor, no more than two to
be taken from the dominant politi-
cal party, said commissioners to be
clothed with power to regulate pas
senger and freight rates, to deter
mine the value of railway property
for the purpose of assessment and
taxation, to preventunjust discrim-
ination and to inquire into and
remedy such other abuses as may
be found to exist. Second, the
passage of an anti-pass bill. And
we instruct and pledge our legisla-
tive candidates, if elected, to use
every honorable means to secure
the enactment of these two meas
ures.
We demand the passage of a bill
dividing the state into congression-
al districts in accordance with the
plain mandate of the constitution.
We demand the repeal of the
present road law and return to
the old system under which the
road supervisors were elected by
the people. We emphatically favor
liberal and progressive policy for
the improvement of roads and
bridges, and to this end advocate
the passage of bill by the legis-
lature creating the office of county
road supervisor to have general di-
rection of the work on roads and
bridges in the several districts.
We demand the passage of bill
similar to the one introduced in thu
last legislature by Representative
Mackenzie of this county providing
for state bounty on coyote scalps
We are opposed to the division o
Whitman county and instruct anC
pledge our legislative candidates, il
elected, to oppose any division
whatsoever.
We commend the efficient anC
economic administration of all oul
present democratic county officials
and pledge the candidates of this
convention to continue the sam,
policy of strict economy.
Upon this declaration of princi
pies we confidently appeal to tn
voters and taxpayers of Whitman
county for their support.

side of Minneapolis and st. Paul, had
great difficulty in securing credit. The
region was too remote from eastern
markets, and communication was so
uncertain that it was not worth while
for eastern jobbers to extend credits
into what they regarded as a wilder
ness. But q good many of the larger
Minneapolis dealers weathered the
panic successfully and We're able tc
carry large stocks of goods. To these
the country storekeepers turned in
their difficulty. At first they would
drive in with their teams and buy
small supplies for cash. Later they
were able to show themselves worthy
of credit and obtained goods in larger
quantities. 1t seems that the first
wholesaling was more of an accommo-
dation than anything else, but the idea
took ready hold, and in Il few years a
number of the leading general mer-
chants of the village We're doing both

gates assembled at the A. o. H. Con-
vention in st. Louis, hoping that Min
neapolis, the queen city of the north
west, may be the next meeting place
Of the National Convention of the the
organization.
minneapolis, both from a standpoint
of natural beauty and the resources
given her by her progressive citizens,
is one of the most ideal cities in the
country for the meeting of the dele
gates in national convention of such
a great society as the Ancient Order of
Hibernians.
Minneapolis says writer, is
one of the remarkable results of the
last half century of Development In

city of $4,000.

has been called the Age of Electric

latter part of the nineteenth century

tory in which the greatest and most
rapid advances have been made in
invention, commerce, education and
social conditions.

there have been such a transition
