The crowd was silent for q moment.
Bartlett led the cheering. then led the
way silently out of the church. and up
the steep hill toward the house of
Cradlebaugh.
The town was almost too late. The

persons to put calves that are born in
the spring into an open paddock or
yard during the hot summer months,
but this I consider poor way to do.
The calf at this early age eats but
little and is almost harassed to death
by the flies.
II the calf is born In the fall, says
the Farmers Voice, 1t makes splendid

and troublesome. even calves that are
a year old are better on In . barn with
windows darkened than they are in
open pasture. Provided, however, they
are given plenty of good feed.
Fall calves that are strong and
vigorous do very well in shaded pas
ture and make less care for the
owners.
When there Is q good supply of
grass and shade. about all that is
needed to keep them growing well is
plenty of pure water and salt. But II

INDICTMENTS FOR SIX.
Grand Jury at Springfield, Ill.,, Returns
Bills Against Mob Leaders.

Springfield, Ill.-Six more alleged
riot leaders have been caught in
the grand jury net here. The in
quisitorial body on Friday night re-
turned indictments against six persons,
the documents charging 20 separate
offenses. All were based upon the
trouble at Loper's restaurant and were
identical with those charged against
Kate Howard in the indictments re-
turned Thursday.
The small towns of the county con-
tinue to be danger spots. At Buffalo,
a village 10 miles from here, the fol-
lowing notice has been posted at the

SOLDIERS RIOTED.

Start a Row in Atlanta.

Atlanta, Ga.-Police reserves were
called to Terminal station on We'd
nesday to quell a riot that broke
out among United States regulars
en- route from Fort Slocum to
the Pacific coast. When the local po-
lice officers were unable to curb the
soldiers a call was made upon Fort
Mcpherson for troops and a company
of regulars responded hurriedly.
The trouble started when a number
of the soldiers broke out of their cars
which were on a sidetrack at the Ter
minal station and, it is said, began an
noying passengers entering trains. Of

JOHNSON is RENOMINATED
MINNESOTA DEMOCRATS NAME A
CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR.
Convention at Minneapolis was Stam-
peded and Remarkable DEM
onstration Took Place.

Minneapolis, MINI. - The Demo
cratic state convention on Wednesday
stampeded for Gov. John A. Johnson,
and nominated him for reelection with
a rush after remarkable demonstra-
tion. When the roll call of counties
was made for nomination, Aitkin
county yielded to Ramsey county (St.
Paul. and Mayor Daniel w. Lawler of
st. Paul took the platform and at the
conclusion of ten words he mentioned
the name of John A. Johnson.
One of the widest demonstrations
ever seen in a Democratic state con-
vention in Minnesota ensued. Henne-
pin county (Minneapolis) tore up its
standard and started wild march
about the hall. Everybody else Joined
in.
The convention was wild for John
son. Marching Through Georgia" and
Cheer, Cheer, the Gangs All Here"
were played in rapid succession by the
band, and still the crowd yelled. The
galleries, which were well filled, Joined
in the demonstration. The result was
inevitable. Nothing could stay the
tide of enthusiasm and as soon as the
effervescence had subsided sufficiently,
Johnson was named unanimously for
governor.
This second nomination of Johnson,
after 81 minutes of spectacular demon.
stration, was contrary to his wish. He
had repeatedly refused to be candi.
date and declared that If nominated
the campaign would be carried on
without a general. His secretary,
Frank A. Day, last night said he had
no knowledge of the governors present
intention and refused to make a pre-,
diction as to what the governors
course might be in the future. Gov.
Johnson refused to say whether he
would accept the action of the con-
vention, as he had not officially been
advised of the nomination.

MOB LEADERS ARE INDICTED
Grand Jury at Springfield, ILL.,, Returns
Bills Against Two Persons.

Springfield, Ill.-Ten indictments
against two of the alleged mob
leaders were returned by the special
grand jury of Sangamon county late
Thursday. Six of these are against
Abraham Raymor and four are against
Kate Howard. Raymor is charged
with murder, four cases of malicious
mischief and one of riot. The charges
against Mrs. Howard are for malicious
mischief and are identical with those
against Raymor on these counts.
The murder charge against Raymor
is based on his alleged participation
in the lynching of William Donigan,
a negro who fell victim to the mob's
fury Saturday night. Considerable evi-
dence upon which this was voted was
procured by a military court of In
Quiry which had been sitting under
the direction of Col Chipperfield of
the First cavalry, and which turned
over to the states attorney the result
of it's Investigations.
"We procured enough evidence to in
dict 40 or so participants in last
weeks rioting," said Col. Chipperfield.
1--WE have a complete confession from
Raymor and we have also discovered
convincing evidence of arson on the
part of former police officer of
Springfield. The evidence is not only
available for grand jury work, but it
is of such character that convictions
are almost bound to follow its presen-
tation in court"
The indictments charge both Ray
NOR and Mrs. Howard with participa-
tion in the looting of the Loper res
taurant and also with aiding in the
wrecking of the building.

FLEET ARRIVES AT SYDNEY.
American Battleships are Welcomed
by Thousands of Australians.

Sydney, New South Wales.-Early
Wednesday morning thin veil
of smoke on the horizon signalled
to the watchers on the coast the ap-
proach of the American warships, and
at 5:35 official notification was sent
out that the feet had been sighted. 1t
was yet 20 miles outside of Sydney
harbor, but this word, which had
been eagerly awaited by tens of thous-
ands, stirred Australians like call to
arms, and almost instantly those who
had not already left the city to take up
points of vantage along the bays were
moving in droves to line the quays,
the roof tops and other places ON the
harbor front.
1t is estimated that hardly less than
half million peolpe assembled to give
the visitors a royal welcome. Sydney
harbor with its innumerable bays
coves and branches, never looked
more beautiful nor did the American
sailors ever witness a more inspiring
sight than that which met their eyes
as the white ships came through the
Port Jackson.
Passing in through the Sydney
heads in double column, at intervals of
400 yards, the ships looked to have
a world of speed and power under
their glistening sides. The fleet was
attended by convoy steamers and was
greeted with roar of salutes from the
forts, as it steamed slowly along. The
thousands ashore and afioat added
their cheers to swell the noisy well
come and countless British and Ameri-
can flags were flung to the breeze and
were still waving long after the
anchors had been swung from the
sides.
The American ships doomed forth a
salute to the port and as soon as they
were moored at their anchorage Off
cial visits were exchanged.

Why Mr., Taft is Trusted,

Taft is taken to be a man of judicial
temper and fiber who will prosecute
the measures of his party without
creating conditions of undue excite
ment. There is really no necessity
to do so, in view of the fact that the
sra Of divulbement of criminal opera
tions in high finance has gone by. The
searchlight of publicity has caused the
wrongdoers in high places to run to
cover. 1t is only necessary now to
bring about condition of just and
satisfactory working of the business
wheels. This Mr. Taft can be counted
upon to accomplish in perfect accord
with the right-thinking element of the
industrial world. Therefore, he is
trusted and believed in by the men of
affairs as well as by the people. This
is really the situation in a nutshell.

Taft's Kind of Revision.

The tariff must be revised and ad.
justed to changed conditions. This
may mean some reduction in the aver.
age rates and it may not. 1t all de-
pends on what rates will give the pro.
lection needed to cover the difference
in the cost of production here and
abroad and give a reasonable profit
to American industries. Judge Taft
is of opinion that there are some
schedules in which the tariff is not
sufficiently high to give the measure
of protection which should be given
Republican principles. These sched.
uIes should be raised, while some
others which are higher than neces.
sary for adequate protection should be
reduced.
This is Republican revision. 1t is
the way the tariff will be treated by
the next congress if the Republicans
remain in control 1t is the kind OF
revision that Judge Taft believes IN
and advocates. 1t is the kind which
the country has approved and which
we are confident it will decide to have
continued by its vote next November
