The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1912-10-10

Years The North Dakota FARMERS
are rejoicing over the good times in
mite of Mr.. Taft and the Canadian
| reciprocity pacS h tried to enforce.
1t is one thing to produce the
| greatest crop the northwest has ever
known and another to move it.
General Manager Gruber OF the
Great Northern figuring on con-
servative estimate of the crop that
the Northwest produced this year,
has concluded that it will require
the Great Northern 300 days to move
it from it's territory alone. Tie
Great Nor ,hern is prepared to un'
load $50 loads Of grain at the Twin
Cities daily, and 100 cars at Duluth.
The bulk of the grain will be thresh-
ed during the next thirty or forty
days. weather permitting, 80 it can
readily Ibe seen that the railway
companies will not be able to move
the grain much more rapidly than
a tenth as fast as It Is threshed
Some of the smaller elevators in
many of the towns of the state were
full to Overlooking as early as last
Tuesday and crying in vain for emp
ties The Independent is advised
that farmers everywhere are filling
their granaries, SPACES in their
barns, and even rooms in their
houses, besides piling the grain UP
out on the ground, covering it as
best they can. As far as Minot IL
concerned the elevators have beer
able to take care of all of the grain
nicely. We get better chance tt
secure cars. besides there are few
farms very close to the city, and TN
, farmers are not gong to waste mucl
of their time right now hauling II
l the grain. This is going 70 strin'
out the marketing of grain, and con
seouently money is going to circu

TAFT MEN CHARGE
ATTEMPT TO BRIBE

President!- Mckinley Gives Out
Affidavit.

Chicago, June 16.-An affidavit
charging an attempt to bribe F. H.
Cook, negro delegate to the Republi-
can National convention from Louisi-
ana, for $1,000, to desert the Taft
forces and vote for Roosevelt, execut-
ed by Cook himself, was made public
tonight by Director Mckinley, Of the
Taft headquarters. The sworn charge
eliminated a day of bitter verbal con-
flict before the Taft and Roosevelt
forces.
The Taft headquarters asserted that
Cook. who is a. Baptist minister and a
bank cashier in Vidalia. Concordia
Parish, La, made his affidavit before
a notary, of his own volition. The affi-
davit read as follows:

ColonePs Managers Plan Hot Time in
C0nvention-Deny They'll Bolt
However.

Chicago, June 16.-The Roosevelt
plans for the fight to be made in the
Republican National convention Tues
day were finally adopted at confer
ence of the Roosevelt leaders tonight
under the direction of the colonel him
self. They have determined that the
convention SHALL not be organized with
the contested delegates seated by the
national committee, and to this end
they have determined to demand a roll
call on the first proposition that comes
up. This undoubtedly will come on
the right of Governor Johnson, of CAL
ifornia, to cast the twenty-six votes of
that State on the question of the tenn
porary Craftsmanship.
This right will be questioned by the
two Taft delegates from the 4th dis
trict. Then the Roosevelt leaders will
move at once that the temporary roll,
as made up by the national commit
tee, be rejected and that substitute
roll, prepared by the Roosevelt lead
ers. be adopted. This roll will include
the 20 to 80 delegates which Col.
Roosevelt claims were stolen from

"D0n't Need It," Nebraskan Posing as
Reporter, Tells Mckinley.

Chicago, June 16.-William J. Bryan
was a centre of attraction in the pre-
convention scenes today, and though
appearing at the headquarters of lead
ers of rival party as a newspaper re-
porter, was given a demonstration by
the throng of visitors and delegates.
Mr.. Bryan had a personal chat with
Theodore Roosevelt late in the day af-
ter he had interviewed Senator Dixon,
the Roosevelt campaign director, and
Managing Director Mckinley, of the
Taft bureau.
AS he entered the hotel lobby, ell
bowing his way through the crowd,
some one shouted:
"Hurrah for William J. Bryan"
He was cheered for several minutes
and continuous cries of speech,

lobby.
Mr.. Bryan waved his hands to the
crowd and remarked to those near him
that he had come merely as a news
paper reporter" and not seeking presi-
Dental nomination from a Republi-
can convention.
II came to see your steam roller"
said Mr.. Bryan as he shook hands with
Congressman Mckinley. ''Is it any,

"No, we have laid it aside," said Mr..
Mckinley, "but would be glad to lend
it to you if you would like to have it
at Baltimore"
"Oh, no; we Democrats do not need
it." Mr.. Bryan laughingly responded,

The following is from the Yorkville
Enquirer, under the heading: "Just
a Canard"::
So far as the Enquirer has informa-
tion there has been no confirmation of
that story sent out of Rock Hill to
the Charlotte Chronicle, alleging dis
respectful treatment of Governor
Blease by Winthrop graduates On the
occasion of the presentation of the
diplomas.
A Yorkville man who was in Rock
Hill Saturday told the Enquirer that
the Rock Hill people generally seemed
more or less indignant that such a
story should be sent out, more espe-
cially when there was no foundation
for it other than in the imagination OF
the correspondent.
The fact is, said the Enquirer's in
formant, Governor Blease's conduct at
Rock Hill was so faultlessly dignifed
and proper that it occasioned favora-
BILE comment even from people who
might naturally be expected to be
most critical. He took occasion to
say at the beginning of his very few
remarks that he was there solely in
an official capacity rather than for the
purpose of making speech; but at
the same time he wanted it understood
that he had always been friendly to
Winthrop, to prove which he cited his
legislative record and especially the
fact that the Winthrop appropriations
were untouched in the long list of
items he sought to cut out of the last
appropriation bill
In view of the governors conduct,
and what he said, it was particularly
regrettabie that such a story should
have be:n sent out to the world, and
the Rock Hill people Gid not relish
the incident at all.

give the Roosevelt forces control OF
the convention.
Under this plan of procedure-sub-
mitting the contests to the committee
ten bloc. none of the delegates affected
by the contests could vote. Under GUS
tomary rules, passing upon the con-
tests, State by State, one contested
State might pass upon the right of an
other.
The Roosevelt plan is revolution
ary one 1t will be bitterly opposed
by the Taft leaders, but it will serve
the purpose of bringing the fight
quickly to the front and this is what
the Roosevelt leaders desire.
Victor Rosewater, chairman of the
national committee, will call the con-
yention to order. 1t is not believed he
will entertain the motion to consider a
second list of delegates, but will insist
upon waiting for the report of the
committee on credentials, which ordi-
narily would not come up for consid-
Grafton until Wednesday. If he does
this the Roosevelt leaders will move
at once "to proceed to the nomination
of Theodore Roosevelt
In. other words, the Roosevelt dele
gates in such a case would attempt to
hold a convention of their own with
in the convention hall.
Col. Roosevelt tonight conferred for
more than an hour with Chairman
Rosewater, who sought the interview
through E. Montreily, of Kansas City,
mutual friend. Mr.. Rosewater ex-
planned to the colonel that in making
rulings on the. national committee in
contest cases he had followed the par
liamentary rule that had always gov
erned the deliberations of that body.
Col. Roosevelt directed severe crltl-
cisim against individual members OF
the committee, but Mr.. Rosewater is
said to have escaped these structures.
Finally the colonel demanded to know
what Mr.. Rosewater's attitude would
be when the Roosevelt forces proposed
to substitute new temporary roll for
that prepared by the committee.
.The rules of the committee will
apply" answered Mr.. Rosewater.
When asked if he would not consent
to submit the question to the conven-
| ton, Mr.. Rosewater is said to have
asked for time in which to consider
the question. 1t is expected that he
will confer with his associates tomor-
row.
