OHIO CONVENTION.
1t Was a Hot Time and Dick Isl
JubiIant. a@F1 n

Jubllant.
Dayton, o., Sept. 10. The repubii-
cans of Ohio held one of the hottest
conventions in the history of che par
ty in this state for an ''off year." And
still more remarkable was it for the
fact that the Contest TwasTn0t a6eef
the naming of candidates for the seate
offices for which the convention had
been called, but over the selection Of
chairman of the state executive
ership Of u. S. Senator Dick. The
senator won not only on this propo-
sition, but also ON the question Of
endorsement of his wish and that of
Senator Foraker in the u. s. senate;
many of the republicans of the state
having taken the position thar in
view of the fact that the senator's had
not entirely agreed with the policy of
President Roosevelt on national legis-
lation it would be inconsistent to give
an endorsement of equal force to both
the president and the two senator's
In winning a victory over Congress-
man Burton and Harry M. Daven4
port on these two questions, Senator
Dick retained his chieftainship and
prestige but on the other hand the
platform in which appeared the mer-
chant marine and some other planks
indicated that Mr., Burton had not
been idle in other directions, for
Cleveland leaders We're clearly imbed-
ded in some of the best parts of the
platform.
On two points primary voting for
United States senators and tariff re-

introduced as minority report these
two planks apparently with the APP.
proval of Mr.. Burton, and the COM
vention defeated both.
One little incident of the convention
that almost escaped notice came ini-
mediately after Senator Dick had con-
Guided his speech, thanking the con-
vention for the vote just taken in his
favor. Senator Foraker had been 0c-

man and he stepped to the front and
called Mr. Burton, in the front seat
of the Cleveland delegation, to the
edge of the platform for talk, The
congressman came promptly and lis

him to smooth things over by moving
to make the Dick endorsement unan-
ilnous. With wave of HIS hand in.

now and the incident closed, both
men returning to the seats without

the incident.

"The Missouri Grip

With laugh in every line and Just
a thread OF pathos to temper the fun,
the Missouri Girl" one of the clever
est comedies to appear this season, was
put on at the third Avenue last night
Bessie Clifton played the part OF

was fresh, breezy air of the country

Nav Solve the Problem

For the past two or three years the
elevator men Of this city have been
working at disadvantage on account
OF dissatisfaction of the farmers living
south Of the city who have maintained
that elevators on the Milwaukee road
were paying more for grain than the
Brookings elevators, In a recent issue
of The Northwestern Coal Dealer the
following appeared;
1.-The Farmers Elevator Company
house at Madison, S. D., burned.
When an examination was made into
the affairs of the company they were
found to be inSOlvent."
"Oldham Farmers Elevator Com
pany, Oldham, s. D., is out of busi-
ness. It is said to be $500 to the
bad"
These failures may solve the prob
lem as to why some elevators on the
Milwaukee road can pay more for
grain. 1t is a safe bet that some
farmers were caught in these failures

Over $4,000 Worth of Stock
and Produce Sold at Auction
-..Free Matinee for the Ladies
and ...Everybody is
Pleased With the Scheme

The first of a series Of Farmers
Market Days held here Saturday last
proved a brilliant success from every
standpoint. Fully l 200 farmers and
their families were in the city during
the day, in spite OF the muddy condi-
ton of the roads. The ladies came
to do their shopping and the men at
tended the auction, while the little
folks found amusement about the
city, feasted on sweetmeats and in
company with their mamas attended
the matinee at the opera house during
the afternoon. The Fraternity asso-
citation threw the opera house open to
the visitors and it was made good use
of as rest room. Many Of the chill
dren had never been in an opera
house before and to see them so thor
oughly enjoy the treat was worth many
times what it cost the committee.
At noon was served free lunch in
the opera house dining room where
the farmers and their families were
assembled in large numbers, and it
stands to Tom Gullick's credit that
all were pleased with the service OF
the MONDAY meal.
The auction started early after dim
ner, and with S. j. Rudolph crying

Arrangements are Complete for
the Next Market Day

general market day and auction, held
exclusively for the farmers. At this
time every farmer in this vicinity may
bring any article he may wish to sell
and it will be put up at auction with
out costing him cent for auctioneers'
fee. This is purely farmers sale
and exchange and the citizens COM
mittee trusts that every farmer will
take the privileges offered and use
them to the fullest extent. 1t depends
entirely upon the farmers themselves
whether the market days and auction
sale days prove success or not. Ii
they bring in the goods and attend
the sales there is no question about
the success OF the venture. The mar
ket days every Saturday, where no
auction is held, will offer an opportu-
nifty to sell the farm produce at good
prices direct to the consumer.
NOTES.
The committee has arranged to get
stable room for farmers teams at low
price from this on, so there will be no
excessive charges.
The opera house will be continued
as rest room and when the weather
is bad will be thrown open for a mar
ket place and general assembly.
The ladies' Of RrOokinpS should be
on hand every Saturday to buy from
the farmers produce market,
The farmers should bring in their
poultry dressed and in good condition.
Ready sale will be found for this class +,
as a local merchants will take all that
is not sold to citizens.

"The Missouri Girl" which comes
to the Grand tomorrow night, Sept. q ,
is bright, rural comedy that pictures
life in the Ozark country in every de-
tail. 1t has strong moral which al
ways leaves good impression, and
bears the proud distinction OF having
the endorsement OF all the leading
critics Of things theatrical, as well as
Of the pulpit OF the entire country.
The comedy is clean, refined and ex-
tremely funny, being the kind OF fun
that you are not ashamed to have your
mother, wife, sister or sweetheart see.

Their Families Attend

the sale the property offered went at
good prices. One farmer sold two
sheep for $42 which he had offered at
private sale for $50. The total amount
realized from the auction was 81 ,266.5
This amount was netted to the farm
ers offering articles and animals for
sale, as the citizens committee paid
for the services of the auctioneer. Had
the farmers understood the PROPOSE
ton thoroughly the sale would have
been double what it was and many
present stated they would certainly be
on hand at the next sale, at which
time it may be necessary to have two
auctioneers.
The matinee at the opera house was
attended by about 600 ladies and chill
dren and all were delighted for an
hour or more.
A. f. Chamberlain, superintendent
OF farmers institutes, was present and
gave ten-minute talk to the farmers
and citizens, which was highly inter-
esting and instructive.
