INSURGENTS ARE
HEARTILY ENDORSED.

DES MONIES, July 2. Pleading
for a united party in many county
conventions, Iowa today adopted re-
solutions calling on the president to
remove from his cabinet those who at
tempted to read the insurgents out
of the party. The resolutions rang
with hearty endorsement of Sen
ators Dolliver and Cummins and the
Iowa congressman who fought the
tariff bill. Taft was endorsed only
in so far as he has made an effort
to carry out the progressive princi-
pies. The principles of conserva-
tiOn as laid down by Roosevelt and
Pinchot were endorsed.
According to the returns of all
ninety nine county conventions that
chose delegates to the state conven-
ton today, the progressives will
have a majority of 1856 at the state
convention.

GALENA PEOPLE ARE
SORELY GRIEVED.

Since Friday the people of Galena
have been deprived of their mail ser
vice and they are finding the condi-
tion one to be exceedingly deplored.
The trouble comes from the fact that
the government will not pay what is
thought to be a sufficient compensa-
ton for hauling the mail from the
Deadwood postoffice to Galena.
Last year George Leach had the
contract, for which he received 5000
per year and in view of the fact that
the Roubaix price was raised from
5000 to $500 the Galena people think
more should be paid for hauling
their mail. Leach, who was the only
bidder this year, offered to do the
job for 5000 but the government re-
jected this bid and consequently
there has been no mail service to
Galena after June 30th. Some of
the people there have made private
arrangements for the delivery Of
their mail, but there will be no gen.
eral delivery, unless a contract is let
at price to suit the government or
the postmaster makes arrangements
on his own accord for having it
hauled.

CHILD DRAGGED TO DEATH.

Rapid City Guide.-Bessie MelaV-
in Hart of Interior, the ten year old
daughter of John Hart, Jr., was the
victim of a terrible accident last ev-
ening in which she lost her life. She
had just come in from horseback
riding and was dismounting, when
she caught her foot in a rope coiled
on the saddle. The horse became
frightened and ran, throwing the
child upon her face and dragging
her TO death. The horse was sup
posed to be a perfectly gentle one
and it was not thought that there
was any danger in allowing the child
to ride the animal. 1t is supposed
that the child will be buried at In
terror, although she has a sister bur-
led here and she may be placed by
her side. The accident is a terrible
one, and the stricken parents have
the sympathy Of large number OF
friends.

RAISING WAGES OF

SPOKANE, Wash, June 27.-Tak
ing advantage of the shortage of har
vest laborers in the Pacific North
west, where the grain crop this sea-
son is estimated at more than 10O,-
100000 bushels, several organizers
not affiliated with any of the recog-
.nized labor bodies are working in
eastern Washington and Oregon to
form Farm Hands Union, the pur-
pose being to raise the minimum
wage of laborers to $3.50 for a day
of eight hours. The scale for sack
sewers and forkers is $5 a day,
while the pay of machinemen will
be increased from $3.50 to 81 to
from $40 to $12 day.
Efforts are being made by ranch
ers and orchardists to bring men in
to the country from eastern, central
and southern states, and in addition
to these it is likely that students
from a dozen or more colleges in
various parts of t. g country can be
enlisted to assist in harvesting the
grain grass and fruit crops.
