The farmers of this vicinity who
have not stacked their grain yet be-
gin to feel blue over the outlooks, as
the incessant rains are quite sure to
destroy the crop.
Messrs O. Thompson and O. Var

papers. They will harvest in N.
Dakota before they return.
The wolves in this locality occa-
sionally get quite bold; few days
six of them entered the door yard of
Oscar Icerin during his absence from
home, and killed and devoured pet
fawn belonging to his children.
School began here Sept. 10, with
Mrs. P. E. Sphinx as teacher. 1t was
decided at the last schoolme citing to
provide free text books and the sup
ply was received Wednesday. 1t is
very satisfactory and the children
are happy.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Holland and
son are here visiting Mrs. Holland S
parents. They arrived here last
week from Finland, and hope to find
a satisfactory homestead. 1t is to
be hoped that they may be success
full as they will be welcome addi-
to our neighborhood.
P. E: Sphinx has the contract for
building two houses, one for Mr..
Elsie and one for E. P. Sphinx. Mr..
Sphinx says building houses is out OF
his line but thinks if he can get two
men to help him that knows con-
siderable more about the business
than he does, they are sure to make
a success of it.

Lincoln, Neb., Sept. I.-The dele.
gates to the Republican and Demo-
cratic state conventions, in session
here, are almost unanimous in de-
handing the nomination Of Roosevelt
and Bryan for the presidency next
year. Walter D. Guilbert, auditor of
state Of Ohio, is present interviewing
delegates Of the Republican conven-
ton for Taft, but he finds most of
them favoring Roosevelt. He hopes to
have resolutions endorsing Taft incor-
porated in the platform, but finds
much opposition. The Democratic
delegates will admit there is but one
candidate for their ticket and that is
Bryan. Most of them favor Johnson
for the vice presidency.

Nebraska against the five express
companies operating here In which
the state asks for an Injunction to pre-
vent the companies from refusing to
put into effect the reduced rates or.
dered by the Sibley law. The court
held that the state Is the only plain
tiff in the cases and therefore they
cannot be tried In the federal court.
A motion for similar action In the
cases against the Union Pacific, Rock

railroads, in which an Injunction Is
asked to prevent their resisting the
Aldrich rate law and the 2-cent pas

.DEF|ES FEDERAL JUDGE
Attorney General Of Minnesota
Ignores Court Ruling.
FORCES ISSUE IN RATE CASE
Begins Mandamus Proceedings to
Compel Enforcement of Commodity
Rate Law, Thus Violating Injunction
Of United States Court.

Of United States Court.
st. Paul, Sept. I-Attorney Cen
eral Young appeared before Judge
Bum OF the. Ramsey county district
court shortly before noon in company
with T. D. O'Rrien, associate counsel
In the rate cases, and began man.
damus proceedings against the North
ern Pacific road seeking to compel It
by the order Of a state court to put
into effect the commodity rate law en-
acted by the legislature and the en-.
forcement OF which was held up by
an Injunction issued by Judge Loeb
rem Of the United States court.
Judge Bum, after reading the petit
tion OF the attorney general, signed
the alternative writ Of mandamus,
making it returnable at special term
Oct. 5. Service was had on Northern
Pacific officials later by the sheriff.
The entire proceeding before Judge
Bum and in the clerks office did not
take quarter of an hour and yet the
proceedings are Of greater Importance
to the people of Minnesota than any
action In court which has been insti.
tuted in recent years. It is proposed
to test one of the fundamental rights
Of the state in the supreme court Of
the United States without the delay
and expenses which would attend the
usual course of procedure by appeal
from Judge Lochren's decision of last
week.
Done to Protect the State.
Mr.. Young, in explaining his unus-
ual action, said that he was sorry that
events had so shaped themselves as
to compel him to place himself in a
position of at least technical contempt
of a federal court. But, he added,
there was no other way to protect the
rights of the state and, such being the
case, the proceeding was necessary.
There is little question about the
railroads taking up the challenge of
the attorney general, for it would
seem that they must do so to protect
themselves in whatever they have
gained through Judge Lochren's de.
cision.
In such event the railroads have the
next move. Unless their attorneys
can evolve some other course Of pro-
cedure it will be up to them to apply
to Judge Lochren for an order citing
Mr.. Young to appear before the bar
of his court and show cause why the
action In the state court shall not be
dismissed and why he shall not be
punished for contempt of court.
The supposition is that Judge Loeb.
rem will issue bench warrant for
Mr.. Young, who will be taken in GUS
tody by the United States marshal
and hailed before the bar of the court
to answer. If convicted of contempt
he will Immediately apply to the Unit
ed States supreme court for writ of
habeas corpus and thus bring the mat
ter before the highest tribunal for i'm

therefore was inclined to be lenient.
