FOR THE PRESIDENCY
Democratic State Committee Pre-
sents Johnson's Name.
BRYAN FORCES DEFEATED
Friends Of the Nebraskan vainIy En-.
deavored to Prevent Endorse
ment Of Favorite Son.

The Democratic state central COM
mittee. in session at ST. Paul, after
a stubborn fight adopted a resolu-
ton endorsing Governor John A.
Johnson for the Democratic presi-
Dental nomination and recommending
that he be named by the national con-
vention at Denver next July.
AS the meeting of the committee
was presided over by Frank A. Day,
private secretary to the governor, and
who voted for the Johnson resolution
on every test and on the final ballot,
the action of the committee is held
by political leaders as placing the gov.
ernor formally in the race for the
Democratic presidential nomination
The Johnson resolution was carried
by vote of sc to %, after the Bryan
adherents had forced two test votes,
on both of which they were defeated.
The Bryan men insisted on a roll call
on every vote and gave notice in their
speeches on the original resolution
that they would not be bound by the
action of the state committee, but
would make a fight throughout the
state for a delegation from Minnesota
to the national convention instructed
for the nomination of Mr.. Bryan.
Moreover, meeting Of Bryan ad.
herents held at the Ryan hotel imme.
diately after the adjournment of the
state committee, formed a Bryan or
ganization which proposes to carry
the contest against Johnson into every
precinct of the state.
The state committee, besides adopt,
ing the Johnson resolution, voted that
the state convention to elect delegates
to the national convention should be
held in st. Paul on May H. The mat
ter of calling convention to nominate
state officers was left to committee
of five to be appointed by State Chair
man Frank A. Day.

Commissioner Staples Defends 1t in

A sturdy defense of the Minnesota
grain inspection and grading system
was presented to the committee on
interstate commerce OF the house of
representatives by G. F. Staples OF
the state railroad and warehouse
commission. Commissioner Staples
went to Washington to appear be-.
fore the committee on account of the
charges that have been made against
the Minnesota inspection by the North
Dakota senators and representatives,
who have charged that the grain from
their state which passes through Min
nesota to the mills of Minneapolis or
terminals at Duluth does not receive
proper grading, and is compelled to
be sold on grades lower than it Is be-
lieved by them the grain shows on the
gradings which it receives on leaving
the terminal elevators.
II. j. Hall Of Morris, Mimi, q far
mer, also appeared before the commit.
tee as a representative OF farmers as.

the belief entertained by the farmers
of Minnesota that the grain inspection
and grading system in operation under
the laws of the state work satisfac.

WILL BE SENT TO INDIA.
Salvation Army Founding Up Asa
Stray Cats.

A report from Minneapolis says the
Salvation Army of that city is pre-
pairing to round up" ALI stray cats
and send them to India 1t Is to fight
the bubonic plague that the felines
are to be deported and in all cities
where the Salvation Army is located
cats will be collected.
The bubonic plague is spread by
means of flea which infests rats. In
India it is against the religious prin-
ciples of the country to take the life
OF an animal, SO the plague thrives
and thousands are carried away every
year. A member of the Salvation
Army in the Punjab district last year
made the discovery that cats are i'm
mune from the insects and that the
natives do not object to one animal
killing another. This seemed a sim
pie solution to the problem of ex-
terminating the black plague.
Thousands of cats were at once am
ported from England and two cat
farms were established at Guierat.
The decrease in the death rate was
wonderful
