SELECTION OF SENATOR
 BY PARTY PRIMARY.
Democratic State Convention Pre- scribes New Mode of Settling Senatorship in Interest
 of Gov. Davis.

Hot Springs, June 16. After adopting a lengthy declaration of principles the Democratic state convention finally adjourned at 12::3O D. m. today.
 The closing session was de- voted entirely to discussing the platform committees report. The platform as reported was adopted as whole, with the ad- dition of a proviso introduced by ex-Senator J. c. South, authoriz- ing the state central committee to prescribe all the rules for the government of primaries through out the state, and that such rules shall be uniform.
 A lengthy discussion occurred over that part of the platform committees report which pro- vided that the candidate for United States senator receiving the highest number of votes in the primary throughout the state shall be the Democratic nominee for that office.
 Objection to the proposition was that it destroys county lines, wipes out local self-government and makes it possible for candi- date receiving a minority of votes to be made the nominee for an office filled by vote of legis- lators, who should be guided by and be responsible to their con- stituents. It was charged that the change was in the interest of Gov. Jeff Davis for United States senator.
 When the convention reas- sembled at 10 o'clock this morn ing, not more than 300 delegates were present. Many others had gone home and left proxies. The Davis forces retained control, however, to the end.

HUSBAND VS.. WIFE
DR.. A. Nelson, of Fertile, Claims
That Wife Abused Him
Evidence Spicy.

DR.. A. Nelson, Of Fertile, VS..
Emma Nelson is the title of one
of the most sensational divorce
case ever tired in Crookston
which is now occupying the at
tention of Judge Watts of the
district court. AS a result of
the trial the evidence is of a
somewhat spicy nature.
In his complaint DR.. Nelson
accuses his wife of cruel and in
human treatment and recites a
long list of occasions upon which
he has been cruelty handled by
his better half. He maintains
that life with his chosen compan-
ion is a torture and asks that the
marriage bonds be severed. In
her answer Mrs Nelson presents
a document which is highly sen,
sational and exceedingly spicy.
She accuses her husband of
inebriacy, the addiction of some
peculiar drug habit, the use of
various improper things in
domestic life and insists that she
has in every way served her
husband in a faithful manner
such as becomes a true wife.
The trial of the case occupied

not be completed until this even
