Programme for St. Paul Conservation
Gathering CompIeted.

The programme Of speakers for the
National Conservation congress at
St. Paul has been definitely decided
upon and all difference of opinion is
at an end, according to a telegram
from Chicago. 1t was also decided at
a conference between representatives
Of the Twin City committee, B. n.

national body that an extra day should
be added to the four days of the con-
gress, to be known as Presidents
day." when President Taft is expected
to be the guest of honor and open the
meeting with an address. This extra
day is to be Sept. and the congress,
as originally planned, will extend
through Sept. 8.
1t is proposed that presidents day"
shall be devoted to addresses by the
governors Of tIG Western states who
were put on the programme at the
request Of the local board The gov
errors themselves are expected to ar
range their programme. They will be
given free rein in choosing their top
les and will be allowed to speak of
the conservation movement from any
view point they desire.

OPPOSED TO "CANNONISM"
Nebraska Republicans So Declare in
Their Platform.

Lincoln, Neb.. July 27.-.The plat
form convention of the Republican
party Of Nebraska adopted a platform
strongly endorsing the administration
of President Taft, expressing Unalter-
able opposition to 'the system known
as Cannonism," and hearty sympathy
with the progressive" movement in
and out Of congress. The platform in
cIudes a declaration for county option
as the method of regulating the liquor
traffic and for an amendment to the
state constitution providing for direct
legislation. The "anti-Cannonism"
resolution was introduced by Repre-
sentative Norris and is as follows:
Every protest against wrong is
'progressiveness for the right. We
are unalterably opposed to the system
known as 'Cannonism' and are in
hearty sympathy with the progressive
movement in and out of congress. We
urge our senators and representatives
to make use of their votes and infu-
ence along progressive lines in the
future"

THREE CANDIDATES IN FIELD
Garfield May Secure Nomination for
Governor of Ohio.

Columbus, o., July 27.-The state
Republican convention opened with
the contest for the gubernatorial NOM
nation as wide open as it ever has
been.
One Of the days developments was
the adding of the name of James R
Garfield as one of the possibilities.
That of Judge O. B. Brown of Dayton
who has the support Of Chairman
George B. Cox Of the Cincinnati dele
cation, was not much in evidence. 1t
was stated that the field now consists
of Mr.. Garfield, Warren c. Harding,
former lieutenant governor, and Car
mi Thompson, secretary of state.
The Keynote" speech was given by
Congressman Nicholas LOngWorth as
temporary chairman.

Slayer Claims Victim Was Making
White Slave Of Daughter.

Edward Lucia, a steamboat pilot on
Leech lake, shot and killed James
BoardWel, engineer at the Leech Lake
Lumber cOmpany's saWmill at Walker,
the shot taking effect in BoardWeu's
forehead, death being instantaneous.
Lucia says BoardWell and his stepsOn,
Earl Hover, were making a white
slave of his sixteen-year-old daughter,
Cora.
Arriving at the tent where Board
well and the boy were together with
Mrs. Boardwell, Lucia opened up On
the man, firing three shots, and then
took to the woods back Of the prem
Uses. The village was at once aroused,
and men with guns organized them
selves as a posse and commenced &
search Of the woods for Lucia, who
was fOur. liter half an hour by Rob
ert Block -. St. Paul. Block took the
gun away FROM Lucia and the man
went pr oably to the county jail,
where H. is now in custody. The
shoOtino rs evidently premeditated,
as IL went to the place with a gun
and d woman heard him remark that
he was going to shoot both the man
and his stepson.
Lucias daughter had been staying
at the Boardwell home for some time,
and her father had had words with
Boardwell on prior occasions because
she remained at the latter's home.
The girl is exceedingly good looking
and has a tinge of Indian blood in her
veins, her mother being halfbreed.
She has always borne a good reputa-
ton. BoardWell was about forty-tWo
years of age, and Lucia is siXty-fOur.

WILL CONTINUE FIGHT
Grand Trunk Refuses TO Ar1i-
trate With Strikers.

Montreal, July dissolution of the
Grand Trunk strike problem is now
in sight, according to the company's
officials. It neither includes, they say,
arbitration nor any further negOtia-
tions with the 5000 conductors and
trainmen who struck a week ago for a
wage scale higher than the 25 per
cent increase awarded by the board Of
cancellation. The only essential yet
to be provided for in the situation,
from the company's point of view, as
set forth in the message sent by Pres
ident Hays to Mackenzie King, minis
ter Of labor, is adequate protection Of
the company's property and employees,
especially those who have taken the
place of the strikers.
"While we were DESTROYS of arbitra-
tion," says President Hays, time for
such action has been passed"
The strike leaders, on the other
hand, expressed the utmost conf
dence in, the steadfastness of their
ranks and their ability to force the
railroad to terms by an irremediabIe
freight paralysis.

County Option Scheme Killed
by Nebraska Democrats.
IMPRISONED APPEAL FAILS
Delegates Unmoved by OratoricaI Eff
forts of Former Presidential
Candidate.

Grand Island. Neb. July 27.-Ne-
braska Democrats wrested the leader
ship Of their state organization from
William J. Bryan on the issue Of
county option. By decisive votes they
registered their unbelief in his pres
ent policies after listening to an i'm
passioned appeal from Mr.. Bryan, who
declared the liquor interests We're in
an organized attempt to secure p0-
litical control of the state. The mi
nority plank submitted by Mr.. Bryan
was brief, and his opponents declared
it was an effort to recede from his
former radical attitude. But the
workers against the county option
plank were unappeased and stood
firmly against it. The Bryan plank,
which was defeated, read as follows:
1--WE favor county option as the best
method of dealing with the liquor
question"
The plank reported from the COM
mittee on resolutions and adopted is
as follows:
I'VE are opposed to making county
option or any other plan for the reg
ulation of the liquor traffic a question
of party creed. We stand for and in
sist upon strict enforcement of our
present laws and believe that any
further changes in our liquor legisla-
ton should be decided by a direct
vote of the people and that the cause
Of good government and public morals
will be better served in that way than
by dividing the people into hostile
factions on purely moral issues"

News Of Especial Interest to
Minnesota Readers.
MOTHER AND DAUGHTER DROWN
Perish in North Lake at Lindstrom
While Attempting to Save Woman
Guest and Her Young Son.

Mrs. John Crosby and her daughter
Pearl, nineteen years old, lost their
lives in North lake, branch of Lake
ChisagO, in an attempt to save Mrs.
Chris Miesen Of St. Paul and her son
John, nine years old. Mrs. Miesen and
young son we're rescued by John Guen-
ther a ST. Paul man, who was fish
ing nearby.
The Miesen boy was the innocent
cause Of the double tragedy. Accom-
panied by his mother, Mrs. Crosby and
daughter, he went to the southern
shore Of North lake to battle A sandy
beach lines the shore for cOnsid-
cradle distance, but not far from the
waters edge there is a drop treacher-
Gus to one not q swimmer.
The lad found a raft and, jumping
on it, was soon carried far out. He
leaped merrily from one side Of the
improVised boat to the other, finally
losing his balance. Tumbling into the
water he screamed and the women
heard. Without reasoning that she
was unable to swim Mrs. MieSen ran
toward where her son was splashlng
in the lake and, upon reaching the
place where the depth of the water
becomes greater, she, too, soon was
endeaVOring to save herself from
drowning.
The screams of the woman and son
urged Mrs. and Pearl Crosby to action
Though unable to swim they rushed
through the water to assist them.
About the same place where Mrs,
Miesen sank they, too, went down.
John Guenther of St. Paul, who
spends his summers in Lindstrom,
was fishing on North lake and short
distance from where the quartet were
battling with death. He hurriedly
rowed toward the Miesen boy and
pulled him into the boat. Then he
roWed toward where Mrs. Miesen was
endeavoring to keep herself from
sinking and saved her. By this time
Mrs. Crosby and her daughter had
gone down for the last time.

PROTEST AGAINST MANDATE
Minnesotans Want Indian Bureau Pro-
hibition Order Modified.

The order of the commissioner of
Indian affairs prohibiting the sale of
liquor in Clay and Polk counties, this
state, formed the subject of two-hour
conference at Washington. Those
who participated were Fred w. Zoll-
man of st. Paul, agent of the Mime
sofa brewers; Mayor w. P. Davy and
former Representative S. G.. Comstock
of Moorhead; Assistant Secretary
Pierce of the Indian department, Act
ing Indian Commissioner Hauke and
F. G. Holcomb, the official on whose
advice the prohibition order was is
sued.
The Minnesota delegation protested
against the application of the anti
liquor order to Clay and Polk coun-
ties. Their representations were
given close attention, but at the end
of the conference it was announced
that no conclusions had been reached
by the officials. Following the con-
ference Mr.. ZOlIman said:
"The commissioner of Indian affairs
in his order has included parts Of
these two counties which are not Gov
cred by the treaty of 1855. They are
covered by other treaties in which the
wording Of the liquor provision is di1-
feTent.
Eve contend, therefore, that the In
dian bureau should not have included
that territory embraced in the 1855
treaty. The parts of these counties
which we are seeking to have exclud-
ed from the closing order is that in
which such towns as Moorhead and
GAINESVILLE, in Clay county, and
Plummer, Winger and Fosston, in
Polk county, are located.
"The business men Of those places
have property interests valued at
more than million dollars, which
will be confscated, or practically, If
this order is enforced"

The Horses Ears,

Whether you drive a single horse or
a team the principles are the same,
but in driving a pair see to it that
each horse does his share Of the work
and no more. A pair Of horses, more
over, unless well driven are sure to
get in the habit Of wandering over the
road. To drive we'll you must keep
your eye and your mind on the horse.
Watch his ears. They will be pricked
forward when he is about to shy.
droop when he is tired, fly back just
before he breaks Onto a gaIlop) and
before he kicks. Before kicking, too,
horse usually tucks in his tail and
lunches his back a little. When you
observe any Of these indications speak
to him sharply and pull up his head.

Differences In Woods.

Timber is cIassed as hard or soft.
and the main point Of difference be
tween the trees that produce these
classes is that the soft wooded tree
has needle leaves" slim, narrow and
almost uniform in breadth, while the
hard wood trees have broad leaves Of
various shapes. Again. some soft
wood trees carry cones, such trees be
ing termed conifers. Resin, too, is
more characteristic of soft than OF
hard wood. To the class Of soft woods
belong the pines, spruces and frs, and
the most common examples of these
are yellow pine white fir, pitch pine
and spruce or red fir. In the common
er hard woods are oak, beech. mahOg-
any, ash, walnut, plane, elm, birch and
ebony.

Only Name Mentioned at Democratic

from the county conventions held Sat-
urday it seems certain that Mr. Lind
will be the nominee of the state con-
vention at Minneapolis.
In the conventions the name of John
Lind was almost the only one heard.
At the same time there was sentiment
in most of the counties against the
issue for which MI Lind will stand
