Democratic Convention.
ONE BRYAN IDEA oENsURED

Government Ownership and Manage
ment OF Railroads Is Condemned az
lmpracticabIe, Ruinous and With.
out Warrant.
Baltimore, June 4.-The Democratic
state convention in session here sent
an uninstructed delegation to the Den
yer convention. The platform prom
ises the candidates whom the national
convention selects "the generous and
loyal support of the thoroughly united
Democracy of Maryland" but does
not mention any candidate for the
presidency by name. 1t demands a
revision of the tariff; afflrms the
rights OF states and denounces the
doctrine of Capitalization. The pres
ident is condemned for "his persistent
attempt to dictate and coerce legisla-
tion."
Regulation of Interstate commerce
under the Commerce clause" of the
Constitution is urged in order ito re-
lieve the people to the utmost limit
practicable from the grasp of illegal
trusts"
Government ownership and manage
ment of railroads is condemned as
impractfcable, ruinous and without
warrant.

GAME UP FROM BRAINERD
ON GASOLINE MOTOR CAR
General Manager Gemmell, Of the N.
al, Has New Car tor In
specting Line.

w. H. Gemmell, general man
ager of the M. & I. railway, made
his first trip to Bemidji yesterday
with the new motor car or track
automible which he has secured
for the inspection trips along the
line of the M. & I. railway.
Mr.. Gemmell was accompanied
by c. B. Cooper of St. Paul,
general superintendent of the
Northern Express company; D. B.
Newcomb of St. Paul, route agent
for the Northern Express company:
Harry Mills, road master for the
M. & I. railway and D, A. McF ar
land, master mechanic. They
left Brainerd on the car Yesterday
forenoon and arrived in Bemidj il at
about S o'clock yesterday evening.
Mr.. Gemmell and Mr.. Cooper
spent last night in the city, depart
ing this morning on their trip to
Northome and International Falls.
This is the first inspection car
propelled by power in use on the
Northern Pacific system. The
company, however, has purchased
several motor section cars for use
on the sections in the mountain
region where the grade is heavy.
The car, which carries from four
to six people, weighs I, 100 pounds
and is propelled by a 6-horse,
double-cylinder gasoline engine.
The car is equipped with power
full acetelyne headlight and has a
canopy top with side curtains and
glass front for protection from
the weather. The company guar
antees a speed of twenty FIVE miles
an hour and it will, it is said, make
forty miles easily on level track.
1t is guaranteed to master any
grade on the line easily. 1t will
be of great convenience to Mr..
Gemmell in making his trips of
inspection to and fro over the
road.
Mr.. Gemmell is planning to
build a small round house for the
purpose of housing the car when
he is making his trips to this city.

RAISING CLOVER IS A
PROFITABLE FARM WORK
A Polk County Farmer Realized Hand.
someIy in His Experiment With
Clover Raising.

The Crookston Times recently
published the following article con-
corning the experience of a polk
county farmer in raising clover:
THE possibilities of clover cul-
ture in this county have been
demonstrated fully by two we'll
known farmers in the Town of
Liberty and there is no doubt but
that their experience will lead to a
large acreage in clover this year.
Nels Clementson of Liberty is in
the city and he states that year
ago last fall he threshed three and
one-half bushels of clover seed to
the acre, for which he received
$1,000 per bushel. He had none of
the improved machinery for the
work and was highly satisfied with
his returns.
He also stated that Andrew Hoff,
who has a farm near him secured an
average of six bushels of clover seed
to the acre last fall, for which he re-
allied SIS per bushel, or $4,000 per
acre. Both Mr.. Clementson and Mr..
Hoff are enthusiastic over clover cul-
ture and there is no doubt but that
they will this year and in the future
put in as much clover as they possib-
ly can.
The progressive farmers of the
county are being arosued to the pos
sibilities that exist in the clover and
and the result will be greater returns
from every acre of land that is thus
cultivated"
The lands of Beltrami county are
peculiarly adapted to the raising of
clover, as has been shown by the
experiments of several farmers in
this community; and that there is
much money to be made in raising
clover is fact beyond dispute.
