Dor for his nomination until a nomina = ton is made"
 Brackets action caused the thou sand odd delegates and hundreds of spectators who filled the galleries, much excitement. When the debate had reached a point of spirited ten sion, Speaker Wadsworth moved that the question of adopting the ajOrity report of the committee on resolutions containing an endorsement of Hughes along the lines of the convention in the endorsement of Levi P. Morton in 1896 and President Roosevelt in 1904, be put to the convention. The ma- jority report was adopted by a viva voce vote. only a few scattering noes" were heard above the shouts of the bulk of the delegates.
 premonition of a turbulent session was felt before the opening of the convention when the Westchester county delegation at a caucus decided to protest against the endorsement of Hughes by voting against the Hughes resolution. and declaring for an un- instructed delegation. This plan was nullified by the unexpected action of Bracket.
 Believing that the platform fore shadowed several particulars of the platform that will be adopted at the Chicago convention, more than the usual interest attaches to the recOm- mendations which are confined prac- tically to national issues.
 The platform endorses in strong terms the administrations of Roose- welt and Hughes, comments the pOli- cies of the federal administration; {; revision of the tariff as favored and the action of congress declining to re- wise the tariff by piecemeal is endors- ed. Changes are advocated in the currency laws to provide a more elas- tic and satisfactory monetary system.
 The platform also favors the up- building of the American navy: the speedy completion of the Panama canal; the development of an Ameri- can merchant marine; the improve ment of inland waterways; the reen- actment of popular government in the Philippine Islands and commends the settlement of international differences and also disputes between labor and capital. by arbitration.
 For the first time in a score of years. Senator Platt, at one time, the leader of the party in state coun- cils. was not in his accustomed seat with the Tioga county delegation. It is said the senator was i'll.
 The delegates at large are: General Stewart l.. Woodford, Seth Low. Frederick B. Hazard. Edward H. Butler.

The republican convention of Mari copa county met yesterday morning in the Hardwick theater at 10 o'clock and proceeding promptly to business in less than thirty minutes had performed its natural functions and adjourned sine die The chief business was the Se- lection of thirty-one delegates to rep resent this county in the territorial convention in Tucson one week later, at which time two delegates will be chosen to the Chicago convention. The delegates named to the Tucson con- vention are: c. M. Sturges, Donald Mcqueen. w. HsStillwell, Chas. Trib- olet Dr. R. W. Craig, J. M. Jamieson, Ned Creighton. c. F, Ainsworth. W. F.

IL is said that with one or two exceptions every man named on the delegation has signified his ac ceptance of the mission and barring sickness or accident will be on hand.
 The convention was a representative one from many precincts in the county and in point of numbers was about the same as the instructionist gathering in another theater. The convention was called to order by c. M. Sturges a member of the county central commit teA. He announced that two conven- tions Of republicans were to be held in the city the same day and that this one had met because some of its dele gates had been deprived of their seats at a county convention on account O. injustice and gross fraud at primary election.

 FOR HUGHES
Action of the New York
 State Convention
There Had Been Earlier Signs of a Single Re volt.

New York, April II. - Governor Charles E. Hughes was endorsed as New York's republican candidate for the presidency by the party's state convention today and the four dele gates at large with their alternates, elected to the Chicago national re- publican convention. were instruct ed for him.
 The convention was a repetition of the distinctive features of the Oneida convention in 1880, when Roscoe Conk- ling sought vainly to have not only the delegates at large, but the con- gressional delegates also instructed for Grant. Ex-State Senator Edgar Bracket of Saratoga, presiden: of the Hughes State League, started a sharp debate by presenting a minority re- port from the committee on resolu- tions to amend the resolution endors- ing Hughes, and to instruct the dele gates at large to work for him and the other delegates consistently to la

GATHERING WAR CLOUDS
 OBSERVED BY ROBSON
He Thinks They Gan Be Dissipated by
 More BattIeShips
He Feels Quite Sure That War Between This Country and Japan is Only Matter of Time, and a Short Time.

Washington. April 1.-The debate on the naval appropriation bill in the house today resolved itself in the main into a discussion of the possibilities of war between the United States and Japan. In line with his well known views on the subject, MT. Hobson of Alabama. pleaded for four battleships instead of two, for the next fiscal year and pointed out that from now on. the United States should have a fixed policy in regard to naval construction. War between the yellow and white races, he regarded as inevitable and asserted that Japan's present military activity was with view to supremacy in the Pacific and that ultimately it would clash arms with the United States
 Mir. Kitchin of North Carolina dis puted the contention, and avowed that the clash not only would not come. but that the United States should remain at the fore front of modern civilization as an exponent of peace.
 Others, who spoke were MT. Lilley, of Connecticut, who criticised the navy department for maintaining sev- eral useless navy yards; MT. Gill, of Maryland, who denounced the presi- dent for his treatment of Rear Admiral BrOWnson; MT Dawson of Iowa, who advocated the consolidating of several bureaus of the navy department; Mir Loud of Michigan, who favored a nav al program of two battleships a year for ten years MT. Smith of Texas. who made a general assault on the republican party: MT. O'Connell of Massachusetts. who declared himself in favor of four battleships. and MT. Ferris of Oklahoma, who condemned dealing in futures in bucketshops and elsewhere in farm products.
 MT. Hobson went so far as to say that $50. .000. 900 in battleships would have enabled the United States to force Russia to eyacuate Manchuria at the time agreed to do so. and in that case the war between Japan and Russia would have been averted War clouds are gathering said MT Hobson in conclusion. But America could, by carrying out q legitimate naval policy. prevent 1t. It is not a vision; it is not a dream. You can do IL Let begin DS autnOrlZlng four ships this year, at least
 MT. Burton followed and was rath- CT inclined to discount Mir. Hobson's predictions of war. The United States he declared, was in the fore front of modern civilization and instead of en- gazing in warfare. had made peace between nations. He referred to President Roosevelt's part in effecting peace between Russia and Papan. and said: Not one or twenty battleships had anything to do with that peace It was accomplished rather through reliance on the. fairness. justice and disinterestedness of the American people. which have been swept away if We had those ambitions which be- long to a country having great navy and seeking to dominate the nations of the earth" He concluded by say ing that the United States should take advantage of its magnificent isolation and lead the world in the paths of peace

HOW is THis-MR. POST?

The report of Dairy and Food Com
missioner Foust, Of Pennsylvania, who
has had analyses made of 81 breakfast
foods sold in his state, will claim the
attention Of persons accustomed to eat
''sawdust'' for their morning meal. The
chemists employed by Commissioner
Foust report many samples infected
with bugs and worms too small to be
detected with the naked eye and urge
all families to- use microscopes on
their patent cereals. Much of the pro-
duct is sold under labels highly exag-
gerated and in some instances abso-
lutely false. Most Of the claims to
special medicinal qualities, brain de-
veloping@ power, etc., are bald fakes.

DULUTH WATER AND
LIGHT DEPARTMENT
Municipal Ownership Strongly
INDICATED in Report Of Water
and Light Commissioners.
Financial Condition of the Depart
.ment Most Gratifying to all
the Taxpayers of Our City.

The. annual report of the board, of
water commissioners, for the year 1907,
shows, that at the present time the
city has ninety-four miles and 1898
feet. of water mains. and seventy-seven
miles and S66. feet Of gas mains. The
original amount Of mains and pipes
embraced in the purchase by the City
FROM the Duluth Gas and Water COM
pary and in the purchase Of the West
Duluth plant was fifty three miles,
1895 feet water and twenty nine miles
2943 feet gas mains. : ="
e.. Extensions During the Year.
During the year contracts were let
for the building of the Hillside gas and
water system and of the Lakeside gas
system. The Lakeside gas system has
been completed with the exception of
three blocks on Superior street and
about four fifths .(4-5) >of the Hillside
system is completed
In addition to this ordinary extern
sions of gas and water mains, from
one block up to fourteen blocks in
length have been made in some forty
different localities. The total length
Of extensions during the year is ten
miles and 1926 feet of water mains
and seventeen miles and 1888 feet Of
gas mains, making an aggregate of
about % miles.
Earnings and Expenses.
The surplus earnings of the depart-
ment for the year are $50, 70O.19, an in
crease over the surplus earnings of
the year 1906 of $39,127.22 and the in
creased expense for operations, MAIN
! tenance and interest on bonds sold is
! s23'S26.O2.' This showing has been ac-
! complished without any change hav-
ing been made in rates charged for
gas and water during the year and
notwithstanding the fact that the de-
partment has been paying interest on
the last issue of bonds sold for the
construction of the Hillside and the
Lakeside water and gas systems from
Which no revenue has yet been re-
ceived. With these systems completed
and with the natural growth Of the
city, which it Is found develops more
rapidly along the lines of water and

! pect that the surplus for 1908 will ex-
; coed that of 1907. 49, 49,,
