DOPE ABOUT JOHNSON
Political Talk Which Includes Name
Of Minnesota Governor.

Chicago, July l.-Governor John A
johnson of Minnesota is the clark
horse" of Henry Watterson of Kentuck,
for the democratic presidential nomina
ton and political movements are going
forward which portend a lineup of the
antl-Bryan forces in the national con-
vention of 1908 behind johnson. This
information was learned on HIGH author
ity today following discussion bv local
politicians of the action of the PennsvI-
vania state convention of Thursday i'm
declining to take up resolution indoors
ing William Jennings Bryan for the
presidential nomination. The report
also follows a conference on Tuesday of
Richard O'Connor of st. Paul, close ally
of Governor Johnson, and Roger c.. Sui
Ivan, conservative democrat and leader
of his party in this state.
The declaration of Mr.. Watterson
stirred gossip throughout the country
concerning the identity of the Watterson
choice. The Louisville editor declined
to make public his favorite's name. 1t
was stated positively some days ago by
an eastern committeeman that Governor
johnson was the best man meant by
Watterson.
''When the time comes" said a demo-
crat whose source of information is of
the best, ''the states of New York,
Pennsylvania and Illinois will be in line
for the man from Minnesota. Democrats
who want to win are getting behind
johnson. There is not much doing on
the surface just now, but the work of
organizing is in progress.
LAS for his running mate, if we sue
seed, you can say that Lieutenant Gov
ernor Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler of New
York might be the man."
Chicago Democrats are likely to in
vite Governor johnson here during the
fall. One plan which has been discussed
is to hold a big QUITO door meeting, at
which the Minnesota man and others
may be asked to speak.
Bryan's attack on Roger Sullivan be-
fore the Illinois convention year ago,
is now swinging back to place Johnson
in antagonism to the Nebraskan.
Roger Sullivan is believed to have
been the instigator of Johnson's candi-
dacy, and he is believed to have been
at work ever since Bryan sought to read
him out of the party. 1t is declared that |
Sullivan's work resulted in the failure
of the democratic state convention in |
Pennsylvania to endorse Bryan.

SEVERED AN ARTERY.
Kick Of . Horse Injured Albert Neu-
man Severely.

From Mondays Da1IV.
Albert Neiman, living on the Sickle
berg farm near Kiester, had very SER
ious accident befall him a few days
since. While doing his chores one OF his
horses kicked him on the upper part OF
his left leg. AS the wound did not
seem very severe he paid little atten.
ton to it. Aside from a slight lameness
he did not feel the effect for several
days. At the end of that time, how
eyer.~his limb became discolored and on
sending for doctor it was discovered
that the horse in striking him had hit
an artery, injuring it in such manner
as to stop the circulation. 1t is feared
that an amputation may be necessary
before he can recover.

John G. Miller Gets Sc 400 Asains,
Milwaukee Road at Austin.
| From Erjdav's Daily
From Fridays Daily.

In the case of John G. Miller against
the Milwaukee road, which was tried
in the district court at Austin last week.
the jury returned verdict for the
plaintiff for $4,000. Mr.. Miller had a
hand mangled in the gearing of wind
mill belonging to the railroad which he
was ordered to repair in the fall of
1905. In his complaint he alleged that
the windmill, which was sixty-five feet
high. was in an unsafe condition, and
when at the top it tilted, and in order
to save himself from falling he grasped
for support and caught his hand in
some gearing, resulting in it's being bad
ly mangled and crippling him for life.
The case will probably be appealed to
the supreme court H. H. Dunn of this
city was attorney for the plaintiff
Albert Lea Enterprise.
