THE MINOT TICKET.

Our democratic friends did as we'll
as could have been expected at their
Minot meeting yesterday. The demo-
cratic party in North Dakota is some
thing like Old Cy's potato patch: Its
purity narrer, but very long and mighty
few in hill" Enough of them were
found in the state to make up a fairly
good sized convention. They passed
resolutions, the essential parts of
which are practically an endorsement.
of what the republicans of the coun-
try have already accomplished, the
remainder being somewhat glittering
in their generalities.
The recommendation that Mr.. Bryan
be the choice of the democracy f..
president in 1908 puts most or the
gentlemen nominated at Minot square.
ly in line for the appointive places in
the state should the eminent though
erratic statesman from Nebraska by
any accident, not at all probable, be
chosen to succeed Theodore Roose-
welt.
The ticket itself is fairly repre-
sentative Of the party. The best men
In the organization were nominated,
and, what is quite commendable, the
convention does not appear to have
gone out Of its way in bidding for the
votes of disgruntled republicans. Some
of the nominees, notably those for con-
gress, declined to accept, while the
nominee for governor, Hon. John
Burke, who is always goodnatured,
yielded to the pressure.
Mr.. Burke is an ornament to his
party. He is man of high attain
ments in his profession, a good citi-
zen, honest and sincere in his political
convictions and a most genial and
agreeable gentleman in all respects.
This is not the first time the North
Dakota democracy has turned to John
Burke to lead forlorn hope, nor the
first time that he has consented to
lead, but always with that reluctance
born of martyrdom.

In Yield.
SUPPLY OF HOGS LARGER THAN THE DEMAND

was sufficient for their immediate
needs, left them in position where
they were real glad to take Argen-
tina's crop on her hands at prices that
were a little under our own. This
naturally made the Mediterranean
countries turn to America and they
have already taken several cargoes OF
our wheat
While our home prospects are very
bright at the moment. we must re-
member that the crop is not yet har-
vested and 1t has two to four weeks
hard vissitudes to go through vet be-
fore 1t is entirely out of danger.
Black and red rust will undoubtedly
claim their share of the crop. Cinch
bugs and the Hessian fly have made
their appearance in several parts of
the northwest and there Is yet plenty
Of time for these pests to get in their
dastardly work.
In view of the small worlds ship
ments. very small supplies of bread
stuffs on ocean passage, they being
the smallest in good many years,
the large decreases in the European
visible supply and the big decline in
prices we advise purchases of wheat
at present levels.

PROVISIONS

Prices for the commodities have
suffered some little reaction from the
late high prices, but in our opinion
are still much too high.
Receipts of hogs at all centers are
now running considerable over those
of a year ago. Stocks OF meat and Lara
at Chicago and other western centers
are increasing at a very rapid rate.
Shipments of cured meats and lard
show big falling of as compared
with year ago.
European stocks are also very large
and prices at those centers daily come
lower
Domestic consumptive demand ac-
cording to distributors is very small
and show no immediate signs of i'm
provement.
Packing concerns are the best sell
lers and on every little rally in prices
offer vast quantities of the products
for sale, thus keeping the demand
filled and preventing any advances of
consequence.
On all little rallies we would advise
our friends to take the short side for
substantial returns. We particularly
favor short sales of September and
October pork.
