AMERICAS OLDEST SHIP.
The Polly, Which 10 to See New York,
a Terror Of British In 1912.

The Polly, Which 10 to See New York,
a Terror Of British In 1912.
The good ship Polly, which recently
left New Bedford for New York, is the
Oldest vessel in the United States and
one of the oldest in the world. For
1O5 years this two masted schooner
has been doing business, but even now
she can outsail many modern vessels.
The Polly's laurels are not all those
of peace. In the war Of 1872 many a
time she gave battle on the seas to
craft twice her size. She captured
eleven rich prizes in that conflict. AS
a privateer under command Of Captain
Juduthan Upton. with her decks bris-
ting with guns, she was the terror Of
British commerce.
The Polly dropped out Of the binocu.
lar limelight to bob up in 1910 in the
coasting trade. In 1949 and the sue
ceeding years the little smartly rugged
sixty footer rounded Cape Horn six
times and made two complete trips
around the world.
OF recent years she has been carry
ing lumber between Bangor and other
Maine ports. While the boat has been
almost remade, it's the same old Polly,
and IL you had been interested in ship
ping 4 century ago you would have no
trouble in recognizing her now.

SbfciaI to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
Mohall, N. D., Aug. 1.-THE Rem
Vile county republican central COM
mittee was organized yesterday in this
city with C. V. Ferguson of Glenburn
chairman, and R. Miller of Tolley Sec
rotary. There was caucus just be-
fore noon, the primary object OF which
was the endorsement of the appointed
ticket. A few delegates who had got
ten their inspiration from democratic
sources were somewhat opposed to
Senator Steele because they had been
told that he had slate which he
wanted put through, and he also
wanted himself appointed chairman.
This was so far wide Of the mark
that the democrats are now at their
wits end to know what to do with
their ticket. Steele had enough votes
to have been elected, because Miller
had the west of the river, and in case
of a fight he also would be for the
craftsmanship to the bitter end. As it
was the combination of these forces
ruled the day, with excellent results
for the good of the party. The real
test of strength came on the vote of
secretary, when Miller got twenty out
of tWenty-eight votes.
The great fight came when the reso'
lutions were brought in by the com.
mittee, F.. C. Baska, E. E. Joslin and
S. A. Wilcox. S. A. Wilcox, prom
inent farmer, brought in the minority
report, which praised the present eff.
ficient county board and endorsed the
appointees in blank, but not individ'
ually. Senator Steel took the floor in
behalf of the minority report and in
one of the most mastery speeches
ever delivered in this city showed the
work of the party traitors who sought
to trample party honor, fealty, and
everything in the dust to satisfy their
own personal ends. He urged the
delegates to remember that they were
republicans and that any endorsement
of democrats meant adding campaign
thunder to John Burkes candidacy.
The minority report was unanimously
adopted.
The meeting was very harmonious
one, and will do much to solidify the
party in Renville county.
