FOR CONGRESS

Platform of James Johnson, republi-
can candidate for congress:
believe in the preservation of our
countrys natural resources.
l believe in government control of
trusts and combinations who are
monopolizing commodities, restraining
trade or traffic.
believe in a substantial reduction
OF the tariff on commodities used by
people in general; free lumber and
wood pulp. In case the revenue re-
ceived from the tariff does not pay the
running expenses of the government
the deficiency should be supplied by an
income tax
believe in the opening of our rivers
for commerce.
/ believe in and will support true
economic progressive republican meas
ures to the best of my ability.

WILL BRYAN TAKE
STUMP FOR OPTION
NERRAsKAN MAY EVENTUALLY
ENTER FIGHT FOR A SEAT IN
THE SENATE.

Lincoln Neb., March 1S,-C. w.
Bryan, brother of the peerless leader,
is besieged with requests from dele
gates to the state county option con-
vention, now being held in Lincoln, to
have w. ]. Bryan take the stump for
county option on his return to Ne
braska.
Should Mr. Bryan DC so, IL would
practically force him into the race for
the senate. He has declared himself
for county option. but the democrats
who expect to engineer the campaign
in this state this year, insist that he
will not take the stump, as it has al
ways been his practice to take no To-
cal platforms. That his personal in
fluenoe will be expected for county OPP
tion they admit.
c. w. Bryan has given no particu-
lar satisfaction to. the county. option
lists who have called on him. He
says he does not know what his broth
ers will do.
M. j. Bryan's plans indicate that. he
will spend only little time in Ne
braska before Aug 1. If he were to
spend much time on the stump in Ne
braska he would necessarily work fast
as the state. conventions viii be held
July Is.
The county optionists who passed
resolutions demanding that the parties
place county plank in their platforms
are bringing all possible pressure to
bear on Mr., Bryan, however.
Option League Organized.
A new political organization to be
known as the Nebraska County Option
league was launched last night as the
result of the convention Its mem
bership is composed of leaders of all
political parties, but it will maintain
distinct organization, with a state
central committee and county and pre-
cinct officers to carry on its fight. The
purpose of the league is to support no
candidate for the legislature who will
not pledge himself for county option.

CONDITION AT GRAND FORKS
SOMEWHAT ALARMING.

At l o'clock this afternoon the Red
river was one-tenth Of an inch higher
than it was at O'Clock this morning,
and the official reading at 1 today
showed a rise of six inches since p,
m. yesterday. The official reading to-

total rise over the winter guage is a
little over thirteen feet.
The ice is breaking nicely at Aber-
crombie and is moving slowly. Since
Monday the water has risen nearly
four feet and yesterday there was a

Inquiries from Grand Forks disclose
considerable anxiety. A rise of nearly
seventeen feet is reported there since

Move For Mornina Train.

Fergus Falls Free Press: The mat

for consideration at the Commercial
club Wednesday night and heartily APP
proved. A committee was appointed to
see that the petition Is signed by the
business men and officers of the city
and duly presented to the railroad
authorities. 1t would be a fine thing
indeed for the city to get one more
train on this line. A much larger num-
Der of people from the east end of the
county would come here then. as they
would need to spend only enc day.
