Frank A. Day made a suggestion
That a committee be appointed to
make up a list of candidates for state
Offices other than governor. He said
there were usually candidates agreed
on for each place, but owing to tho
demoralized condition of the party as
to the nominee for governor, there
had been no consideration given. He
did not believe it possible to make
up from the floor a well balanced
ticket. A motion was adopted to have
each judicial district select one men,
Der of a committee to consider and
report on a ticket, aside from gov:
ernOr.
Hennepin had quite contest over
a place on this committee. Five can
didates We're named and vote was
taken to eliminate all but the two
highest. This left s. A. Stockwell and
w. H. Williams, and Williams with
drew in favor of Stockwell.
A recess was then taken till 2 p.

to do their work.

Several friends of the governor, in
Guiding Frank A. Day, A. c. Weiss Of

went through the crowd, declaring
that Johnson would not accept and
must not be nominated. Their words
fell on deaf ears.
1T is no use," said Senator Works.
"The more we talk the stronger they
are determined to nominate him"
The delegates had their minds made
up, and while few were talking for
Armson, the accepted plan was to
name johnson and adjourn, leaving
him to handle it.
Nothing else was considered. The
making of slate on the minor Of
fees was deferred till the big ques-
ton was settled. NJ. E. Mathews ct

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
PRINCIPAL Events Gathered n the
Oh Scanaxssavkaa, Countries

The Paris Journal des Debats dis
cusses the military affairs of the Scan.
dinavian countries in an interesting
manner. The paper gives summary
of the military forces of the three
countries, and then proceeds to draw
its conclusions. Sweden, says the
paper, can easily assume the aggres-
sive against an invading army, but the
Norwegian army would be needed
merely to defend the country. Even
if the new bill is passed by the Dan
ish rigsdag the army of that country
will not be large one. But it is
firmly knit together, and is imbued
with the most intense patriotism. No
one believes, however, that Denmark
will be left to its own resources next
time. Therefore it is sufficient that
its army be able to resist the first
assault, which can easily be done by
means of the combined land and naval
forces taking proper advantage of the
natural conditions Of the country.

All the French journalists who Wis
tied Norway in connection with the
visit of President Fallieres were made
knights of the Order of St. Olaf by
King Haakon just before returning to

speak highly of Norway and the Nor
Wegians in future.
The new theological seminary will
be opened in a rented building in
Kristiania Sept. 3. Prof. Odland is
to lecture on the gospel of Matthew,
Rev. E. Sverdrup on the history of the
early church, and Rev. Hognestad on
the first book of Noses and the Old
Testament in general. The lectures
will be open to the public.
It will be remembered that Bake
laget, pleasure steamer, was cut In
two by a Swedish steamer near Kris
tiania. Capt. E. Petersen, president
of the Kristiania seamen's union,
writes in daily that the underlying
cause of the calamity was that the
crew of the ill-starred steamer were
overworked. They had been on duty
for seventeen hours when the accident
occurred, and during the whole sea-
son the men had very little time for
rest. Capt. Petersen says that he
knew the captain of the Bakkelaget to
be an able, sober and painstaking man
who ranked high among the captains
of the local steamers.
President Fallieres of France re-
ceived as gift from the king and
queen of Norway a silver statue of

Major Alfred Dreyfus, the French
man whose unjust prosecutions
aroused the active sympathy of the
