General Conference

The centennial general conference of
the Mathodist Episcopal church is in
session in Minneapolis, Mimi, during
this month. One hundred years agoi it
met in New York City. There were
then 100, 600 members. and now about
g. 100000 members of this church.
There are 800sdelegates at this general
conference from nearly all parts Of the
world of many different languages.
One half of the delegates are minister
ial, and one half lay. They are elected
by each annual conference. Those
from North Dakota conference are:
Ministerial-Rev. j. G. Moore, c. E.
Vermilya and S. A. Danford, superin-
tendents respectively of Grand Forks,
Minot and Bismarck districts, Lay
delegates-Judge Pollock of Fargo, J..
P. jackson of Bismarck and A. S. Bur-
rows of Grand Forks. The business Of
the general conference is mostly legis-
lative. Several bishops will be elected
to fill vacancies, also editors of church
papers, members of church boards and
committees.
Minneapolis is receiving the con-
ference royalty and a good spirit eem
to prevail.

Cooperstown Sentinel: The editor Of
the Finley Beacon admits that he never
heard republicans complain of demo-
Gratis voting for republicans at a gen.
eral election. But he evidently thinks
it safer not to discuss the matter fur
Their. As he seems to have a chip on
his shoulder, to give him an opportunity
to elucidate farther, if he 80 desires,
we will say that it seems to us that
some republicans feel that they should
be left to themselves to run the govern
ment as they like. And, farther, that
when any party or set of men reach
the point where they set themselves up
as the party, and deny others the right
to come and go at will, the party has
gone its limit, and men SO setting them
selves up as its sponsors and guardians,
have ceased to be safe advisers. These
men say to republicans, ''you are re-
publicans and you must vote the re-
publican ticket; don't undertake to flop
or we'll show you up right" and the
democrats, '.you are democrats and
you must vote the democratic primary
ballot, but of course we'll be tickled to
death to have you come over next fall,
after we've fixed our ticket to suit US
ut don't you NEEDLE now-so get
along now-but remember we want you
next fall" But if the stalwart re-
publican leaders feel that way about
it, good-we can see their finish.

Valley City Times-Record: OF the
hundreds Of state exchanges which
come to the Times-Record, not a single
one is supporting q straight republican
ticket, or q straight democratic ticket,
or a straight stalwart ticket, or .
straight progressive ticket. The news
papers like the ordinary voter have
arrived and to large. extent are
free lances. They have reached the
conclusions that the editor has the same
right to pick and choose his candidates
as the average voter. The Times-Re-
cord will be found supporting so-called
progressive, candidates to . large
extent in the campaign, because they
are believed best fitted 70 hold the 81
fees TO which they aspire. Some ex.

The Times predicts that L. B. Hanna
will not allow his name to go on the
primary ballot for governor. Theodore
Roosevelt has been thoroughly informed
as to the situation in the state and as
state after state swings into line for
him through the preferential primaries
it then becomes more and more
patent that he was defeated in this
state solely through the unpopularity of
Hanna. In correspondence with an
intimate friend in the state, he has ex-
pressed his conviction that he was
politically betrayed by Hanna and that
he will use his influence against him in
the primaries. It is q foregone conclu-
sion that Hanna will not run on . ticket
with Taft. In the first place, he would
stand little chance Of nomination and
less chance Of election in November.
With Taft at the head Of the national
and Hanna at the head Of the state
ticket, North Dakota will 60 democratic

Commissioner Gilbreath has prepared
a statement of the state hail insurance
venture in the shape of a news item
and is asking the press to publish it
gratis. The Leader is glad to do its
share in boosting the city, county and
state but it has no free space for this
proposition. As a matter of news we
published the law when enacted, but
now if the state wants any of our
space for this purpose it will be charged
for at the same rate that private in
surance companies r charged.

Minot Democrat: Petitions are being
circulated this week for C. A. johnson
as a candidate for governor. Mr..
johnson insists that he is not response.
BILE for the petitions and that he has
not announced his candidacy. The
move is evidently made as a feeler and
should the petitions be generally signed
there is little question but that the
Minot man will announce himself and
precipitate one Of the biggest political
battles ever fought out in North Dakota.

The ~cartoonists continue having a lot
Of fun at the expense of Roosevelt.
One cartoon was printed shortly after
Roosevelt won out in Illinois. 1t
showed Taft as a cowboy herding cat
tie which were branded with q name of
q state on each one while Roosevelt
was in the foreground sitting on the
head of q steer branded "Illinois." He
had his hat off and seemed very
pleased to have captured one out of the
herd. Below the cartoon is written
Teddy gets a maverick"

Roosevelt may be short a few dele
gates when the Chicago convention is
held in June. He has 2A delegates
but needs 316 more. There are 262 del
egates yet to be chosen but it is not
thought that they will all go to the one
man. There are q number of contest
ed and uninstructed delegates among
whom Roosevelt may get a few but at
present his chances look slim.

Hon. R. M. Pollock of Fargo is a
