.BROWNCOUNT YGETS Fifteen
Democratic State Conve ntion Meets
in September.
Appointments is Made on Vote
Given Gov. johnson.
Committee Decides That Full Tic.
ket Must be Nominated.

Tuesday, Sept 4, is the date agreed
upon for the Democratic state conven-
tion and Minneapolis is the place Sc
lected for the gathering.
The Democratic state central COM
mittee met at the Merchants hotel
Thursday afternoon and decided upon
this date and place. The basis of
representation will be one delegate for
each $50 votes cast for johnson in
1904 and three delegates at large for
each county, except that Hennepin,
Ramsey and st. Louis will have five
delegates at large. There will be 1915
delegates entitled to seats in the con-
vention.
The selection of Minneapolis as the
place for the convention was unani-
nous and was made upon the motion
of F. B. Lynch of ST. Paul.
The date was selected after consider
able discussion. Several Of the com
mitteemen wanted an earlier date and
Aug. % was proposed but voted down.
Some of the members thought that a
September date was too late and would
not give enough time forthe campaign.
Besides, they said, a convention dur
ing fair week would make it a side at
traction and not give it the prominence
and publicity that they wantand other
wise expect to receive. Farmers who
have been at the fair getting enthused
over Durham bulls and Hubbard
squashes, one of them said, are not in
a condition to give the ticket the care
full thought that is wanted. Others
said that the convention should not be
side attraction to pumpkin show
and another suggested that the whole
ticket should be nominated carefully
and that if the state fair is going on,
two thirds of the delegates will leave
the convention when the vote on gov
ernor has been taken.
The others contended that Aug. %
would be during the busiest season for
the farmers and would keep the most
of them away. Besides, they said,
they preferred short campaign and
had some doubts as to being able to
stand long contest. The reduced
railroad rates that week would result
in a large representation from the
country districts. They admitted that
enthusiasm and publicity are wanted,
but they did not think that the state
fair would detract the attention Of the
press and the people entirely away
from the convention and the OratOry
that goes with it.
The convention will meet at II a. N.

Contrary to expectation and the
general belief that the wet spring
would ruin the crops of grain in this
part of the country, those who have
gone over the wheat country say that
there is every reason to believe that
the crop this year will be far above
the average though on account of the
low lands being too wet, the acreage
will be smaller than in previous years.

and the hall will be selected later by


the committee. SIS
Il A motion was made to indorse the
administratio of Gov. johnson. This
led one member to ask if this implied
an Endorsement of the Apo continents.
After the business had been trans
acted most of the members remained
for an experience meeting. Each Of
the counties represented was heard
from as to what the people think of
Gov. johnson and what mistakes he
has made and also what the people
think of the Republican ticket. Cam
paign methods and issues were dis
cussed.
Unlike the Republican central COM
mittee, which at its April meeting
threw its doors open and made all its
business and discussions public, the
Democratic held their meeting behind
closed doors.
There were about ninety members
present. All the counties were repre-
sented but three, and six members sent
proxies. Before the meeting the com
mittee was entertained by Chairman
j.. A. Day at luncheon. The meeting
was called at 2 O'Clock and adjourned
at 5.
The basis of representation agreed
upon will make convention of l,245
delegates. OF these Hennepin will have
l65, Ramsey SO and st. Louis 38.
Members of the committee expressed
the idea that the convention should
nominate full ticket and makea fight
for the whole ticket. At the same time
the minor places on the ticket are sup
posed to give dignity and strength to
the head of the ticket.
The delegates maintained that their
campaign this summer will befor good
government rather than Democracy.
Still the name of Bryan, when men
toned, was heartily cheered.

No Ono Wanted Box 10.


In no other western European coun-
try is superstition 30 prevalent as in
Austria Hungary. Quite recently the
chamberlain's Office changed the num-
Der of box 10 in the Imperial opera
house and the Imperial Court theater
to ia. because the public objected to
sitting in a box bearing this unlucky
number. None Of the rich subscribers
who takes q box for the year wanted
No. 10. and for single performances it
was Just an hard to dispose Of.
This superstition reaches its height
In medicine. Speaking at the health
exhibition, DR.. Heinrich Grun declared
that in many instances superstition,
and especially local superstition, was
an absolute menace to public health.
In the Austrian hospitals one Ands

cred Just az unlucky. At Carlsbad.

Austrian cure resorts nobody wants
to begin his cure on a Friday.

FAR INTO THE
FROZEN NORTH
History Of the Polar ExpIor.
ations of the Past.

Lieut.. r. E. Peary is now In the
north In an eighth attempt to reach
the pole, II, as seems probable, he has
not already persisted in the arctic re-
gions as have SO many others before
him. Walter Wellman, newspaper cor.
respondent and explorer Of worldwide
reputation, is at Spitzbergen, from
which point he will make his third at
tempt to reach the pole, this time by
means Of an airship. Solomon Au-
gust Andre sacrificed his life and the
lives Of two companions in an effort
to reach the cap Of the earth In q bal.
loon.
Practically the whole of arctic ex.
ploration history has been made with.
in less than the last 100 years, though
the first arctic voyage was made as
early al 1900 by q Portuguese navi.
gator in an effort to discover the
northwest passage to India. While
many later voyages were made for the
same purpose the first expedition
made with the idea Of reaching the
pole was moi made until early In the
last century. Since that time many
lives have been sacrificed In an effort
to conquer the elements of the frozen
north and wiring from them the secrets
supposed to lie at the top of the world.
One Of the largest expeditions or
ganized for arctic exploration. and one
Of the most disastrous, was that Of
Sir John Franklin, which sailed from
England In 1916, and entered the
arctic regions by the Baffin bay route
in July Of that year. No member Of
this party ever returned. Both Eng
land and the United States made he
roic efforts to send succor to these in.
trepid explorers. Urged by the tears Of
Lady Franklin expedition after expedi.
ton went into the frozen north In an
effort to relieve, or IL too late for
that to learn the fate of Franklin and
his companions, but 1t was not IN.
til 1858 that any definite trace Of the
party was found. Franklin's wife had
resolutely refused to give up hope and
had fitted out several expeditions at
her wi expense to search for her
missing husband. One of these under
Morgan County democrat. (Versailles, Mo.) 1900-1906, 1906-08-03

Capt. McClintock discovered in King
Williams Land the remains and rec.
ords Of the lost explorers. All of the
105 members of the party had per.
ished Of cold and hunger.
Another Inflated polar expedition
was that fitted out by the New York
Herald, and commanded by Command.
er De Long, Of the United States
navy. The steamer Jeanette sailed
through Behring straits and became
%ice.bound. For two years the help
less vessel drifted with the Ice, the
great pack finally crushing her staunch
hull and forcing the members of the
expedition to take to three small boats.
One OF the boats reached a settlement
and obtained relief. another was lost
in a storm and OF the third all but
two Of its occupants persisted Of cold
and starvation.
Probably no other name Is so in.
timately associated with arctic ex.
ploration as that of Robert E. Peary.
U. s. N, who 1t Is was thought prob
able has sacrificed his life to the cause
Of %unraveling the mysteries Of the
north. Since 1886 arctic exploration
has been practically a hobby with him.
and during the past 20 years he has
made eight voyages to the polar re-
gions for purposes OF scientific study
and exploration. giving to the world
more valuable information than has
been secured from any other one
source. 1t was Lieut.. Peary who
proved that Greenland Is an island:
he discovered independence bay on the
Greenland coast, Ave degrees farther
North than any previous authentic dis.
coveries; he crossed the Greenland ice
cap and he gave to the world its first
knowledge of the Whale Sound Eski.
