Representative Lawrence H. John
son of Minneapolis was the next
speaker.
He stated that he had attended a
number of like conventions, but
never in his life had he seen a con,
vention which got down to business
and stuck so we'll to the subjects
under discussion as did this one.
He was heartily in favor of giving
to this section a proper representa-
ton at the seat of state government.
He had introduced the reappor-
tionment bill in the last legislature,
which had passed the house, but met
its Waterloo in the senate. The
main reason the bill had not passed
the senate was because some of the
legislators in this very section had
voted against it. The reason they
had voted against the measure was
that they had not been instructed
right before they left home; and
with this organization in working
order, reapportionment should be
the very first thing considered by
representatives and senators from
northern Minnesota; and this section
should invite all sections of the
state to stand on reapportionment.
Mr.. Johnson wanted to see the

Struck Sunday.


SEATTLE. Dec. 12.-The Alaska
Steamship Company's steamer Olym-
pia was wrecked on Bligh Island reef,
forty miles from Cordova Alaska
early Sunday morning.
The Bligh Island reef where the
Olympia struck, is unlighted. Three
Alaska liners have been wrecked
within radius of fifty miles of the
point where the Olympia struck.
She had already called at Cordova
and. as only few of the passengers
were bound for ports west Of there, it
is probable that not more than few
oozen passengers were aboard the
vessel when she struck.
The Olypmia sailed from Seattle
Dec. 6, with twenty-six passengers and
several hundred tons of freight.
Passengers on tile Olympia first
sailed on the steamship Northwestern,
which grounded in False Bay, San
Juan Island. early on the morning of
Dec. 2, q few hours after sailing from
Seattle for the north. The North
Westerns passengers were brought
back TO Seattle and resumed their
journey on the Olympia, which was
hurriedly put into commission.
The wrecked boat is an iron screw
steamship of 6,S337 tons gross, was
built in Glasgow in 1855, and was
christened the Dunbar Castle. Later
the vessel was transferred to Amer
lean register and her name changed
to the Olympia
Her home port is Seattle. She was
under the command of Captain J. r.
Daniels and was valued at $3.50 600

COURTS ORDER TO GUST
RECORDER is IN VAIN
Kroh's Term Will Expire Before
Date of Enforcement
Especial Dispotch TO Tic Call

STOCKTON, Dec. 15.-Judge j. A.
Plummer today denied motion for a
new trial and an arrest of Judgment in
the accusation against County Re-
corder and Auditor James H. Kroh
and issued an order that he be removed
from office.
The Judgment Will not go into effect
for 80 days, and by that time Kroh's s
present term Of Office will have ex-
pired. He will assume office again
January l, 1911, the beginning of the
new term, SO the judgment will have no
effect unless it be salutary.
The judgment is of great length, en-
tirely reviewing the case. Kroh was
accused November 21 Of willful mis-
conduct in Office IN that in January of
1910 he drew his sa1arW warrant
amounting to $3.50, when it should not
have been drawn until the close of
the month. It was further charged
that he assigned the warrant to the
San Joaquin Valley bank.
A verdict of guilty was returned
against Kroh December by a jury In
Judge Plumme-'s court.
