BREWSTER HEADS
The REPUBLICANS
FRED BREWSTER, HARVEY cAPi-
TALIsT, CHOSEN CHAIRMAN OF
STATE REPUBLICAN CENTRAL
COMMITTEE TO SUCCEED LATE
GEORGE M. GRAY.

Fred .. Brewster, the well known
Harvey capitalist, was this morning
chosen chairman OF the state repub-
lican central committee to succeed
the late George M. Gray of Kenmare,
the beloved chairman who passed
away in this city during a heated
campaign just before the close of the
recent election.
The executive committee of the re-
! publican state /. central commit
tee held an important session this
morning and elected Mr.. Brewster to
fill the vacancy created by the sad
death of the late Mr.. Gray. Mr..
Brewster will be well remembered in
Fargo, as he was once proprietor of
the Webster hotel here, Nine mem
bers were in attendance at the meet
ing.
Appropriate resolutions of regret
over the sudden and lamented demise
of Chairman Gray were adopted by
the committee, copies of which were
ordered sent to the widow and chill
dren of the, deceased, to the governor
elect and for filing with the secretary
of the committee.
Judge N. C, Young of Fargo then
addressed the committee and gave his
views on real republicanism. 1t was
one OF the best talks of the kind that
has been heard on topics Of public
policy in recent years and we'll ex-
pressed the sentiment of those pres
ent and all staunch republicans.
A discussion of the future of the
republican party in this state followed
and a determination was reached to
enter actively into the perfection of
a permanent republican organization.
Following the meeting the members
Of the. executive committee called on
Governor-e elect Hanna at his private
offices in the Pioneer Life building,
where Judge Young'spoke for the com
mitted and stated that the body he
represented intended to stand behind
the next governor in all his appoint
ments, which he knew would be clean,
capable and representative officials.
The governor-elect responded feel"
ingly, and stated his views on SINE of
the reforms necessary for a business
administration such as the state of
North Dakota now needs. He an
nounced his selection of James w.
Foley as secretary, which met with
the hearty approval Of all the mem
bers of the committee. =

Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, Nov. 14-Wheat: Tired
longs have sold a great deal of wheat
today and there has also been a great
deal Of pressure from the short sellers.
The news of the day has been so bear
ish that 1t has created an almost I'M
animous bearish sentiment. Prospects
of early peace in Europe, lower mar
kets there heavy primary receipts, in
dications of a general curtailment Of
milling operations soon in northwest
and entire lack of export inquiry re-
ported for either Manitoba or American
wheat have been principal depressing
factors. There has been a steady com
mission house absorption of wheat on
each decline during the last three or
four days. This has prevented any SER
ious break. With a continuation of
the news that is running now a draggy
market must be expected.
Corn-Has been week all day Decem-
Der particularly so as there is an in
creasing quantity of new corr at all
centers and the quality is rapidly inn
proving. Cash sales so, 900 bushels.
Shipping call very poor. The commits
sion houses continue to buy the May
corr on resting and scale orders.
Oats-Were weak with other grains,
but losses were not material. There
was also some very good buying of De
cember delivery today by the class of
houses that will accept delivery to fill
shipping contracts. Shipping sales were
100000 bushels including $50, 900 re-
ported for export.

BE SECRETARY no GOVERNOR
SELECTION MEETS WITH THE
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL OF RE-
PUBLICANs AND PUBLIC.

Announcement was today made at the
private officers of Governor-elec Han
| ma that James w. Foley OF Bismarck
the popular poet laureate of North Da-
kota, would be the secretary to the
governor during the next state admin
istration.
The selection of Mr.. Foley meets with
the unanimous approval of republicans
all over the state and h general pub
lie, Mr.. Foley has been in active touch
with the needs of the state for the
greater part of w decades through
his own activities and the different
state positions he has held in that
time.
In the last republican state admin
~istration the poet laureate was secrc-
tary to former Governor Sarles and his
return to the governors ONCE in the
same capacity seems most fitting at
this time. Prior to that time he sery-
ed as secretary to the state railroad
commission and since then he has been
secretary of the state senate, a sue
cessor. for whom, in the latter position,
Aside from his numerous literary
contributions to eastern publications,
including The Saturday Evening Post
and other periodicals, and the poetical
works that have been published In
book form, Mr.. Foley until two years
ago was managing editor of The Bis
marck Tribune,
The governor-elect has been highly
commended in the choice of his first
appointee. He announced tina Mr..
Foley would be with him as secretary
this morning when the members of the
executive committee of the republican
state central committee called on him
in a body.
Clarence L. Ziegler, who has been
private secretary to Mr.. Hanna during
his last three years in congress, will
continue in that capacity and will be in
the governors office after the first OF
the year. Mr.. Ziegler has most capably
filled his present position and his con-
tinuation is a recognition of his merit.

failure to gather in all of the harvest
has had some effect. but as a general
thing the farmers there are in pretty
good shape to Withstand the delay of
getting returns. Mr.. Wright says that
about rs per cent of the wheat has
been cut and on the whole about 80 per
cent threshed. What is out in the
fields is well shocked and covered with
