JOHNSON FOUGHT
BY BRYAN FORCES
Efforts Will Be Made to
Smother Governor at
Home.
Foes of Nebraskan Expect
to Block Nomination in
Convention.

The boom for Governor Johnson. of
Minnesota, which has been revived with
good deal Of force recently, is not to
be permitted an easy pathway If the
Bryanttes in Minnesota can help them
selves.
The Bryan people have been for a long
time watching the Johnson movement as
a cat does mouse. Il is the only
proposition in the realm OF Democratic
politics that gives them real worry
They don't like its looks. and they are
anxious to extinguish it at the earliest
possible moment.
To thjs end. Democratic members Of
the House have received letters from
ID. l. Savage, Of Minneapolis. a leading
Bryan Democrat OF the State. pointing
out that johnson is really a negative
and cOlOrless sort Of man: that he was
elected governor of Minnesota, not be-
cause Of any especial merit on his part,
but because there was a Republican
bolt which common decency made eff
fective; that today Johnson is merely
pressed for leadership Of a Democratic
bolt from the politics which the party
has assumed to represent; that he is
lending himself to the men and interests
opposed 10 Bryan in 1900 and 1904
Say He Can't Garry State.
It is declared by Mr.. Savage that as
candidate for President johnson could
not begin TO carry Minnesota, and that
II is useless for members of the party
TO permit themselves to be misled by
such claims. Moreover. it IS made clear
that Bryan people do not intend 10 con-
0ede Minnesota 20 Johnson.
A Bryan press bureau has been es-
tabished in St Paul, and great activ-
ity is displayed in the effort 10 smother
johnson at home. The State conven-
ton for Minnesota will be held May s.
and the Bryan people confidently claim
mat Johnson VIII not keen more than
nalf the delegates away from the Ne
brdSkan, and that this will amount TO
putting Johnson out Of the running

BUREAU OF MINES
FAVORED IN HOUSE
Bill Has Been Given Con-
Slderation by the Sub
committee.

The House Committee on Mines and
Mining will make a favorable report
at an early date on a bill for the es-
adjustment Of a bureau OF mines. The
subcommittee in charge Of the bill has
already given il favorable consideration
All the details Of the measure have not
yet been settled, but it is proba bic the
proposed bureau will be placed under
the jurisdiction Of The Interior Depart
ment- 1t is deemed likely by the sup
porters Of legislation for such a bureau
that Il viii be provided FOR before the
close OF the session.
Both mining interests and mine en-
ployes all over the country are in favor

50 far as 10 advocate a department Of

One REGIMENT IS
HELD AS A RESERVE
civil Authorities Again in Con.
troll at Springfield, Ill.

Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. 21.-Military
rule has ceased in Springfield, the
militia force there being reduced to
one regiment and the task of preserv-
ing order being turned over to the
civil authorities. The First cavalry
broke camp at daylight and the Sew
enth infantry patrols were withdrawn
from the streets. Sheriff Werner had
an increased force of deputies on duty
and the city police was reinforced by
a few special policemen. Except for
the closed saloons and the ruined
homes and business houses in some of
the streets there was nothing to in
dictate that a week ago the city had
been in the hands of an uncontrolled
mob.
The early mornings hours we're
practically without incident. One case
of shooting was reported from the
northeast section of the city, a sentry
asserting hat some one had dis
charged a double barreled shotgun in
his direction. The "Shafter cavalry
was sent from the Jail headquarters,
but no trace of the marauders was
found.
No announcement has yet been
made as to when the Seventh infantry
will be ordered home. This regiment
a the strongest numerically in the
capital. Its departure will depend
upon the ability of the police and
sheriff's forces to prevent further dep
relations.
Indictments have been returned
against several alleged leaders of the
mob, charging murder, malicious mis-
chief and riot.
