think the end would come as soon as
it did, for while the patient was dying,
some of them were in court testifying
in case before Judge J. B. Swing in
which it was being sought to show
that the governors mind was not

sound and dismissed the case which
was for a writ of habeas corpus.

Chronic brights disease is now au-

LIKE V|CTORS
From Battle the Party's First Voters
Were Hailed as They Marched
to the Front at Republican
Convention.

Philadelphia, June Is. = Musical
Fund hall in this city was the scene
of memorial exercises to celebrate
the fiftieth anniversary of the Re-
publican party In this same hall, in
1858, General John c. Fremont, known
as "the pathfinder" was nominated
to bear the standard of Republican
ism as the candidate Tor president
of the United States and on that day
the Republican party was born.
More than 1000 Republicans, who
were present at the birth, were hon
ored and beloved participants in the
celebration.
The services were the beginning
of four days of celebrating in honor
of the party. The historic hall, sit
uated on Locust street above Eighth
was filled to the doors The stage
itself was overcrowded. The heat was
intense but the enthusiasm never
Jagged Patriotic speeches were de-
livered and the many women in the
audience joined just as enthusiastical
ly as the men.
The convention is under the au-
spices of the National League of Re-
publican Clubs. The president of the
league, j. Hampton Moore of this
city, has had arrangements in hand
and when he stepped to the front OF
the stage he was loudly cheered. IF
your hearts thrill with fervor let it

BECAME EXCITED.
Men and women fiourished chairs
and drowned out band with their
cheers as the old voters, every one
of them past the allotted three score
and ten years, marched slowly but
proudly to the seats that had been
for them in the front of the
hall.
1t was an inspiring sight. 1t was
more like the ancient greeting of a !
victorious army than welcome to
the tattered remnants of an army

political party with the ballot as their
only weapon. For ten minutes the
cheering kept up. Flags, handker-

reached he was leading the mighty

Cotton Holding and Storing
Farm and Ranch.

At meeting in Birmingham,
Alabama, of the special committee
on "Cotton Holding and Storing"
appointed by the Southern Cotton
Association at its recent Hot
Springs session, articles of incor-
poration were agreed on providing
for a 500, 100000 stock company
with shares of IS each, shares to
be paid in money or in cotton, the
company to begin business when
$10,0 900 worth of stock shall be
paid in. The style of the corpora
ton proposed is the Southern Cot
ton Company, and its objects are
to be the purchasing, selling and
warehousing of cotton. The pur-
poses, as set forth, are essentially
as described in these pages re-
Gently. One of the interesting
details of its management, about
which there has been some discus.
sion, relates to the minimum price
at which cotton shall be bought.
Section 3 covers this. THE CON-
pany shall devote its entire CAPT.
tai to the purchase of cotton at
the minimum price fixed by the
Board of Directors, and shall pur-
chase all cotton offered for Gale at
said price without regard to what
may be considered the market
price. excepting such part of its
capital as its Board of Directors
may deem wise to invest in the
construction, purchase, or leasing
of warehouses, and 10 defraying
the expenses of the business of the
company" 1t is the expressed
intent to sell all the cotton bought
by the company whenever and as
fast as it may be able to obtain
the price paid before, plus the ex.
penses incidental to the transac-
,ion." By these steps it is expec-
ted that cotton prices can be held
absolutely up to the minimum be-
cause of this etrong buying force
on the markets.

1t Will Be Bryan.

People.
Senator Rayner, Maryland's bril-
liant and admired representative
in the United States Senate, has
revived the suggestion to nomi-
nate Southern man for the Dem
ocratic presidential nomination.
The proposition would awaken no
dissent were the qualifications. the
character and the patriotism of the
eminent men of the South only to
be considered, for the South is
rich in men worthy to dignity the
presidency.
But there is living today man
of towering intellect, man whose
conceptions of the principles of
Democracy embrace the inspira-
tons by which the Republic of
Washington of Jefferson aud of
Jackson, was created, a man whose
purity of character. broad patrio-
tism and unswerving convictions,
envelop our entire country, q man
whose tremendous eloquence has
been arousing the country for the
last fifteen years to the necessity
for its return to the ways and prin.
ciples of American Democracy, q
man whose faith in the honesty of
the people and it's ultimate triumph
has survived the two personal de-
feats which have made him stron-
ger and stronger in the confidence
and affections of the American
people, a man who has gained the
unbounded admiration of all men
who have pinned their faith in po.
pular government, a man who has
risen away above any section or
province, a man who has been the
herald of returning Democracy
aud has been an inspiration and
an example for other men.
That man. need we name him?
That man is William Jennings
Bryan.
The heart OF the Democracy of
the South and every part of the
country, has already nominated
him.
He has been tried as no other
tribune of the people has been
tried. and be has never been found
wanting.
Senator Rsyner is losing time.

STRAWBERRY GROWING.
N. c. Barry Tells Evening Times How
Plant Is Cultivated in Minnesota.

NJ. c. Barry, who is one of the in
terested farmers at the institute, gave
The Evening Times some interesting
facts about strawberry growing in this
part of the state. Last year he cult
waited one rod on the shore of Pelican
lake in Minnesota, where the land was
nearly all sand. He gave them Just
such attention as he would give a
larger field, and picked from the one
rod SO quarts of berries.
He gave the following expenses in
growing an acre: 5000 plants at Is
cents per thousand, with such losses
as would naturally occur, $25; cost
of planting, $50; cost of cultivation,
500. Total, SITS. The second year,
when the crop is produced, the cost of
thinning would be repaid four fold
from the plants which could be sold
Picking costs two cents per quart and
the average market value would be
at least IL cents. This leaves clear of
the picking $1104 per acre. Now de-
duct the SITS for getting started. and
there remains a net profit of 1929 per
acre produced in two years-mOre
than $500 per acre. This beats wheat
or dairying either, and the market is
just as good.

FOUGHT THE CONSTABLE,
Addison County Farmer Wanted On
Serious Charge.

A warrant charging Erick Guthorn-
son with assault with deadly weapon
and resisting an officer in pursuit of
his duty was sworn out in Justice
Ryan's court at Fargo, and Deputy
Sheriff Bingham left the city at once
in search of the accused.
The complaint against Guthornson
was made by Constable John F. Zim-
norman of Addison township.
1t appears that the constable went
to the farm of GuthornsOn in Addison
township to levy on personal prop
.erty on an execution issued against
Guthornson in Judge Gearey's court
for sos. When the constable made
known the object of his visit Gut
hornson opened hostilities, it is
charged. and, armed with rifle and
club, drove the constable from the
place.
Constable Zimmerman at once pro-
cedded to Fargo and made a COM
plant.

LEFT GIRLS STRANDED.
Pretty Members Of sLlberty Belles'
Company in Tough Luck.

ST. Cloud Times: Sunday evening
witnessed seance behind the pref
tily painted curtains at the Davidson.
This time the trouble was between
Manager Fred Berger and Treasurer
Frank Brown, of the Liberty Bellies"
company, and two chorus girls-Ger-
trude Fowler of Dallas, Texas, and
Pauline Marshall, of Topeka, Kan.
1t seems that these two girls miss
ed the train in st. Paul Sunday morn
ing which brought the balance of the
company to st. Cloud. They caught
the Winnipeg express in the evening,
however, and arrived here at 1885,
plenty of time to take their parts in
the show. They went on with their
work in the performance, but at the
close of the entertainment were noti-
fled by Manager Berger that they
would be fined 81 for missing the
train. The young women protested,
but without avail, and as a last re-
sort they refused to go on with the
company unless the fines were re-.
mitted. Berger was obdurate, how
ever.
u
Miss Fowler had $43 back salary
due her and Miss Marshall 1872. They
attempted to collect this amount but
were informed "that it cost money to
bring chorus girls from New York
city," and that they wouldn't get a
red cent" Both women were request
ed to sign releases which they foolish
ly did and thereby lost their pay. They
were under contract at $1S per week.
The other members of the company
went on to Duluth this morning, leav-
ing the two women stranded here. In
their own language, they didn't have
enough money to buy a postage
stamp"
Several interested gentlemen were
busy this afternoon making up a
purse sufficient to take the girls back
to st. Paul, where they could, per-
chance, get employment in one of the
theatres there.
