HIGGINS IS NAMED
Boss PIatt's Humiliation Con.
summated at Convention

SARATOGA, N. Y, Sept. 15-The
Republican state convention adjourned
today after nominating unanimously
the ticket for state offices forecast last
night as follows:
Governor, Frank w. Higgins; lieu
tenant governor, M. Linn Bruce; SEQ
rotary Of state, John F. O'Brien; attor-
ney general, Julius M. Mayer; comp
troller, Otto Kelsey; treasurer, John G.
Wallennair; state engineer and sur
veyor, Henry A. Van Alstyne; chief
judge Of the court of appeals, Edgar
M. Cullen (Democrat); associate judge
of the, court of appeals. William e.
Werner.
The unanimous nomination of Lieut..
Gov. Frank w. Higgins for the gov
ernorship was made possible by the
withdrawal of former Lieut.. Gov. TIM
othy L. Woodruff, as the convention
was preparing for the roll call. It was
only when, as he himself said, 1t be-
came obvious to his practiced ear
that the convention was almost solidly
against him, after his name had been
placed in nomination in a speech by
William A. Prendergast, in which the
management of the Higgins campaign
was bitterly attacked, that Mr.. Wood
ruff took the platform, withdrew his
name and moved that the nomination
of Higgins be made unanimous. There
was no contest whatever over any 9TH
er place on the ticket.

Says He Loves the Gospel Of Peace
More Than Gold or Silver

DENVER, Col, Sept. 15.-William J.
Bryan opened the Democratic cam
paign. in Colorado with a speech at
Coliseum hall tonight. He dwelt OH
what he termed the policy of milftarism

pose of aiding capital in enforcing its
demands against labor as anything
else. He characterized President
Roosevelt as a dangerous man because
Of his love sof power and warlike de-
monstratlons and unsuited to be at the
head of nation that wanted to be

L
Judge Harrison yesterday refused to
nolle. the ten indictments against for
mer Mayor A. A. Ames, as asked for
by the county attorney. The judge
says that shortly after the supreme
court granted new trial in the case
| where there was conviction and the
former mayor was sentenced to six
years in the penitentiary the Judges
of the district court decided there
should be another trial
Judge Elliott, who had charge of
the criminal calendar at that time,
/ charged the grand jury to investigate
the evidence against the former mayor
and to bring an indictment for each
separate offense instead of causing the
trial of DR.. Ames OF the old omnibus
Indictment
This was done and mistrial result
ca. The case was set for trial again
IN June. but DR.. Ames pleaded sick
ness, and it was continued over the
term. He recovered and is now a can
d1date for the Republican nomination
for congress.
In summing up his reasons for re-
fusing to dismiss the indictments
Judge Harrison says:
am not advised of any new de-
/ PifiOAllSs III Tie case WHICH SnOui0
tcause the county attorney to change
his mind. He has not called the atten-
ton of the court to the loss of any evil
dence which was used in the other
trials, and if should grant this mo-
ftion think it would not be sufficient
| reason for dismissal in view of the
above facts to say that the county
attorney does not believe he can pro-
| cure conviction at the hands of a
jury in Hennepin county, think the
| case should be tried until jury de-
termine the question of the defendant S
guilt or innocence
The court agrees that some of the
indictments should be dismissed, but
not by a general motion.
DR.. Ames says he is ready for trial
at any time, and his attorney, E. S.
Cary, of st. Paul, says it is his desire
to have an early trial.
County Attorney Boardman says he
will prosecute the case with as much
y1gor as any he has ever tried
One case has been set for Oct 10,
and it is believed Ames will be tried
upon the charge Of accepting money
from Bessie Lee, woman of the town,
in return for police protection.

MANY SEEK BERIHS
ON COUNTY BOARDS
-
Eleven Democrats and Fifteen
Republicans After the
Nominations

In the city there are eleven Demo-
Gratis and fifteen Republicans aspiring
for the four nominations allowed each
party for county commissioners and
four Of this list will secure positions as
a result of the election. For the two
country districts there are five candi-
dates, three Republicans and two DEM
Tocrats.
In connection with this contest the
Good Roads association has Endorsed
four men from each party in the city.
The reason announced for this action
is that the association felt that it is
necessary to procure county commits
sions who will actin thorough accord
with the city councilin improving the
roadways leading into the city, this
statement being made by Gustav
Scholle in justification of the action OF
the organization.
ut was the object to secure the con-
sent of well known business men to
make the race, but it was found that
the places were regarded with such
disfavof that it was not possible to in
duce many of those approached to file.
Four men who, it is believed, possess
ability as candidates for such positions,
were selected from each party.
The Favored Democrats
1.-THE Democrats favored are: john
B. Arend, partner in the housefurnish-
ing business of Will E. Matheis Co.,
L. F. Block, connected with the Twin
City Telephone company; J. Angus,
Nilsson, formerly custodian of~the city
hall, and Emil Skoog, manager for
Schaub Bros, tailors.
The Republicans are: Robert H
Seng, now county commissioner; Greg
DRY P. Ritz, an expert in tax matters
John Wharry, president of the North
western Lime and Cement company
and Matt Jensen, former city clerk.
This leaves seven candidates for the
Democratic nominations, all of whom
are well known citizens, and who have
in all known instances declared them
selves in favor of good roads. They
are: James Cleary, wood and coal
dealer; William E. Dinsdorf, with the
Northwestern Telephone company;
Robert N. Grady, business man; r. N.
Hare, former member of the board of
public works; William j.. Preston,
contractor; Fred Schroeder, livery
man, and George Thill, contractor.
The Republicans not favored by the
good roads association are: L. r. Fair
child, T. A. Deichen. George H. Haz-
LdI ", SluiSe JOliloOii, r.. D. -1Ciiiioiil
George A. Nash, Nels ]. Ness, Charles
A. Nitz, Louis III. Peter, Mic Pottgie-
ser and Melvin J. Wiley.
No Rush in Country
There is but one primary contest in
the country districts for commissions
er, this being between Edward Know
Ian and James Powers, Republicans,
who are contending for the right to be
the candidate of their party in the
district west of Rice street. Powers
holds the position at present. Henry
Butcher, who is counted upon as the
next commissioner from the district,
is unopposed for the Democratic
nomination.
In the district east of Rice street
Adolph Lindgren, recorder of White
Bear village, is not opposed for the
Democratic nomination, and A. p.
Wright, who is the Commissioners at
present, has a clear field for the Re-
publican preference. Lindgren is very
popular in the district.

can says: Ex-Judge Alton B. Parker
put his trained and practiced hand on
the lever of the great Democratic ma
chine today and began his first real
days work as leader of his party and

man will be practically in charge of
the Eastern end of the campaign here
after.
NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-One of the
interesting features of Judge Parkers
day was his talk with David B. Hill.

by Hill on District Attorney Jerome.
