McCLEARY PUTS ON THE HARNESS
Formally Enters Race for Congress
sionaI Honors in the Second
District.

Second Assistant Postm aster Gen
eral McCleary filed as candidate for
congress in the Second Minnesota dis
trict on Monday. Accompanying this
act was formal statement which reads
as follows:
Having this day filed for the Re
publican nomination as representa-
tive in congress for the Second dis
trict, I deem it proper to say that |
thoroughly indorse the Republican
n national platform as to national poll
cies and the Republican state plat
form as to state policies. and that I
heartily support the candidates nomi-
mated thereon.
81 have never regarded it as good
morals Or honest politics for man
to make promises as d candidate that
he knows, or ought to know, that he
may find himself unable to keep if
elected. It is just as criminal to OBJ
tain an Office under false pretenses as
to obtain any other thing of value in
that way. It is the promises of the
party and not the promises of indivi-
dual candidates that are enacted into
law and carried into execution. So [
have never been vain enough or reck-
less enough to put forth a personal
platform.
ST am candidate for the nomina-
ton for congress as a Republican

HERMAN COMMITS SUICIDE.
Well.known Citizen of New Ulm
Takes His Own Life With the
Aid of Revolver. h
Tragedy Occurred Friday Noon in
a Barn to the Rear of His
Place of Business.
Note Addressed to Two of His
Sons Partly Explains His
Rash Behavior.

All New Ulm was shocked Friday
by the news which spread about town
like wild-fire that Peter Herrian, a
resident and business man of reputa.
BILE and many years standing, had
taken his own life with the aid of
revolver.
The tragedy occurred about noon in
barn to the rear of Mr.. Herrian's
saloon. Only one shot was fired and
this shot was heard by Jos. Hala, an
aged relative, who Immediately gave
an alarm. When friends of Mr.. Her
rian entered the barn they found him
lying on pile of hay with the smok-
ing revolver in his hand and the blood
oozing freely from a wound just above
his right ear. Life was not extinct at
that time, but became so few mo-
ments later.
A note, written in German and ad-
dressed to his children, was found on
q business card in his vest pocket.
Translated, it read as follows:
Dear children, Henry and William:
My time has expired. Will you for
give me? Take care of the little ones;
also take care of yourselves. Mama
wants me. There is enough left so
that you can get along. Good bye
Your Father
The reference to his wife, who died
unexpectedly two years ago and who
throughout their entire welded career
was helpmate and devoted compan-
ion, reveals, in part at least, the rea-
sons for his self-inhicted ending.
What else may have prompted him to
his rash behavior no one knows.
Mr.. Herrian was born in Kreis
Pilsen, Bohemia, fifty mine years ago.
Coming to America in 1867 he located
in New Ulm and from that time until
the hour of his death, with the excep-
ton of couple of years spent in con-
Quoting the Leona hotel in Sleepy Eye,
New Ulm remained his home. At first
he was employed in one Of the local
breWeries, later he became an ice
dealer and finally in 1892 ne embarked
in the saloon business, a trade that
remained the source of his livelihood
the balance of his life. He was mar
ried in 1873 to Miss Lena Nagel and
through his union with her he became
the father of six children, five of whom
are living-William j., Henry, Alex
ander, Columbus and Peter, the latter
being only ten years old.
He was a man of kindly disposition
generous aud open-hearted, and true
to his friends and neighbors. In lodge
and society circles he was particular
ly active and such organizations as
the Hermann Sons, Turnverein, Ode
Fellows, Workmen, Arbeiter Verein
Fire Department, Hunters Club anc
Battery were none the worse Off fol
having him enrolled as member
The funeral held at Turner Hall Sun
day afternoon gave evidence OF thu
esteem in which he was held for it was
one of the most largely attended evel
held in this city e. j. Buehrer, presi
dent of the West st. Paul Turnyerein
delivered the address and delegation!
were present representing all the socie
ties with which Mr.. Herrian in hi!
life time had affiliated.

LIND WILL NOT COMMIT HIMSELF
Refuses to Discuss Possibility Of
Becoming Candidate Against
Jacobsen.

When asked by the Minneapolis
Tribune If he was an aspirant for the
democratic nomination for governor,
John Lind stated positively that he
had nothing to say for publication.
"Would you accept the nomination
if it was rendered you?" was asked
the ex-governor.
81 have nothing to say
"Your name is being mentioned by
party leaders as likely opponent for
Mr.. Jacobsen.
ST can't help that
Mr.. Lind is regent of the state
university and when reminded of that
fact, he said that an Office like that
needn't keep man out of public life.
Friends of the former governor say
that he is not averse to again taking
up the burden, of public Office if he is
sure that there is any demand for such
sacrifice.

DENVER CONVENTION Is ON.
Twelve Thousand People on Hand
to Witness the Initial Pro-
ceedings.
Theodore Bell of California Makes
the Opening Speech.
Adjournment Taken Until Noon
Today Out of Respect to
Grover Cleveland.

The democratic national convention
opened at Denver at exactly 1920
yesterday afternoon. The magnificent
auditorium was packed with $4,000
people and stirring scenes of enthusi-
asm prevailed throughout the entire
session.
Bishop Keane of Wyoming pro-
nounced the invocation and then
Chairman Taggart introduced the
temporary presiding officer, Theo. a.
Bell of California.
Mr.. Bells arrangement of the re-
publican party was frequently inter-
rupted by applause, and when he
asked If it was the republicans who
gave US prosperity. why they didn't
keep it up the convention rafters
rung with the cheers of enthusiastic
thousands.
Other popular features of his adj
dress were his reference to the Chicago
platform as reading like the report
of a bankers association and his
slap at Taft when he said that ''no
man can transfer the popularity of one
man to another"
His indirect illusions to Bryan were
greeted with the widest sort of demon
stration.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Bells
speech, resolution was offered on the
death of Grover Cleveland and the
convention adjourned until noon to-
day out Of respect to the dead presi-
dents memory.
Today the permanent organization
will be effected with Representative
Clayton of Alabama in the chair and
after his address the convention will
hear the reports of the various COM
mittees.
Tomorrow the nominating speeches
will be made. Dunn of Nebraska will
present Bryan's name, Hammond OF
Minnesota will offer Gov. Johnson's,
and Irving T. Handy will talk in be-
half of Judge Gray.
The candidate for vice president will
be chosen Friday morning.

notification of vice presidential nomi-
nee, John G. Wise of Mankato.
Over a hundred Johnson boosters
accompanied the Minnesota delegation
to Denver from st. Paul. The parade
which they INDUCED in Monday eve
ming was the talk of the town.
The Connecticut delegation on test
vote taken yesterday stood eleven for
johnson and three for Bryan. 1t is
agreed that when Connecticut is called
on the role for nominations it will
yield to Minnesota. Hammond will
then present the name Of the North
Star governor.
, The New Jersey delegates after a
heated argument in their caucus de-
cided to vote for George Gray OF
Delaware.
The Illinois crowd reelected Roger
Sullivan as member of the national
committee and the Ohio delegation
turned down Tom Johnson of Cleve-
land in favor of Mr.. CARRIER. Both Of
these acts are regarded as slaps at the
conventions probable nominee.
Gov. Johnson's nomination will be
seconded by Attorney General Strauss
of Maryland.

eight delegates from this city to the
Independence party convention at

that the organization has been per-
fected and should the Independence
party develop into a national party

man who will receive the credit for
having founded this new movement,
which has combined the old line par
ties and new features.
Mr.. Hearst, 1t Is said, could receive
the nomination for president II he
wished, but so far he has declined to
consider this, preferring to have some
Ian other than himself head the
dcket.

TRY, TRY AGAIN.
President Roosevelt Orders the Case
Against the standard Pushed.

Against the Standard Pushed.
Oyster Bay. July 24--Presiden.
Roosevelt has announced in unmis-
taxable terms the determination of the
administration to proceed with the
prosecution of the Standard Oil case
despite the decision adverse to the gov
eminent handed down by the United
States circuit court of appeals. This
decision, the president thinks, in no
way affects the merits of the case. and
he makes known his decision to cause
the action to be brought again before
the courts in such shape, IL possible,
as to prevent technicalities interfering
with decision based upon the actual
issues involved. The statement in the
matter made public by Secretary Loeb
follows:
THE president has directed the at
torney general to Immediately take
steps for the re-trial of the Standard
OIL case. The reversal of the decision
does not in any way touch the merits
Of the case except insofar as the size
Of the fine Is concerned. There is abb
sofutely no question of the guilt of the
defendants or of the exceptionally
grave character of the offense. The
president would regard it as a gross
technicalitfes of any kind the defend
ant escaped the punishment which
would have unquestionably been met
ed out to any weaker defendant who
had been guilty of such offense. The
president will do everything in his
power to avert or prevent such miscar-
riage of justice. With this purpose in
torney general to bring into consulta-
ton Frank B. Kellogg in the matter
and do everything possible to bring the
offenders to Justice"

A Giant WOodpile.

The census bureau reports that g.
962,662 cords of wood were used In
the United States last year in the man
ufacture Of paper pulp. On the site
Of Madison Square Garden this would
make woodpile more than a mile
high.
So long as this means a draft upon
limited and unreplenished supply it
is most regrettable. But the country
could without alarm see twice or
thrice as great a yearly use Of pulp If
wood were treated like other crops, to
be raised. used, and replanted. Nor
is the cropping period hopelessly long,
now that fast-growing soft woods are
coming into greater use.-New York
