The democrats denounced the
methods of the department of the in

a demand that a federal administra.

pass all public lands into private own

Instruction Of the democratic dele
gates caused heated contest The
minority report of the resolutions com
mittee recommended an uninstructed
delegation. On vote the minority
report was lost, 80 to 40. The ma
jority report favoring Clark was then
adopted unanimously.
John e. Osborne, of Carbon county,
was elected democratic national COM
n1itteeman for the fourth consecutive
time. The republicans Endorsed the
Taft administration and the work of
their senators and representatives in
congress. George 3. Paxton, of Vim
tab county, was elected republican ma

Colonel Controls Minnesota.
Roosevelt delegates who went to
tho cir co11nfv conventions in Mipnocota
not only cast their ballots for the
man from Sycamore Hill, but they
also used persuasion and strategy, car
ryilg counties which were conceded
to their adversaries and obtaining
split delegations to the state conven-
tons where solid Taft delegations
were expected.
Mower county, which was conceded
TO Taft before the convention, in
Scott county gave Taft only one dele
gate out of the eight originally &C.
credited to him.
It is evident now that Roosevelt
delegations will be in strong control
in the state convention which meets
in Minneapolis Thursday as well as
the congressional district conventions
which will be held Wednesday.
Even the First congressional dis
trict, former Congressman Tawney's
district, turned against him, and the
Ninth district, which was thought to
belong to La Toilette, is now con-
coded to the colonel, giving him every
congressional district in Minnesota
and an undisputed right, except so far
can dispute~~it, to the "a delegates
which Minnesota will send to the ma
tional convention at Chicago.
