Policeman After Guilty Parties. Owing to the fact that several articles have been missed from boat- houses along the lake shore, the police department has decided to put forth every effort to prevent the recurrence of these thefts and will prosecute anyone found in such acts. Either the regular police or special “plain clothes” men will be detailed for duty along the lake shore and the people are expected to aid the department in stopping this mis- chief and tampering with the boats. The police department cannot stamp out these petty thefts and annoyances too quickly to suit the owners of boats on lake Bemidji. In connection with the above article, E. E. McDonald makes the following statement: “A reward of $10 is hereby offered to any person who will furnish information leading to the convic- tion of any person guilty of unlaw- fully entering my boathouse, tamper- ing with or stealing any boat, unlaw- fully taking any property of boats or boathouses on the dock or on the shore of Lake Bemidji. “If possible, the name of the informant will be kept in confidence.” Dated July 8, 1908. (Signed) E. E. McDonald. On the Verge of Prostration. “What else have you got?” asked Cholly, looking languidly over the bill of fare for something to tempt his jad- ed appetite. “Well,” replied the waitress, have hot biscuits too.” “That'll do,” said Cholly, resting his intellect by tossing the bill of fare aside. “Bring me a hot biscuit stew.” —Chlcago Tribune. “we Rebuttal Testimony.

Denver, July 11.—After nearly fifty hours of almost continuous session the resolutions committee of the Demo- cratic national convention submitted its report and it was adopted by unan- imous vote. The platform deelares that “Shall the people rule?” is the overshadowing issue in all public questions now under discussion. The principal planks are as follows: Arbitrary Power of Speaker. ‘The house of representatives was designed by the fathers of the Consti- tutien to be the popular branch of our government responsive to the public will. The house of representatives, as con- trolled in recent years by the Repub- lican party, has ceased to be a de liberative and legislative body respon- sive to the will of a majority of its members, but has come under the ab- solute dominaticn of the speaker, who has entire control of its deliberations and power of legislation. We demand that the house of repre- sentatives shall again become a de- liberative body, comtrolled by a ma- jority of the people’s representatives, and not by the speaker. Misuse of Patronage. ‘We condemn, as a violation of the spirit of our institutions, the action of the present chief executive in using the patronage of his high office to se- cure the nomination of one of his cabinet officers. A forced succession in the presidency is scarcely less repug- nant to public sentiment than is life tenure in that office. No good inten- tion on the part of the executive, and no virtue in the one selected, can justify the esiablishment of a dynasty. Campaign .Contribution Publicity. ‘We demand federal legislation for- ever terminating the partnership which existed between corporations of the country and the Republican party under the expressed or implied agree- ment that in return for the contribu- tion of great sums of money where- with to purchase elections, they should be allowed to continue substantially unmolested in their efforts to en. croach upon the rights of the people. ‘We pledge the Democratic party to the enactment of a law preventing any corporation contributing to a cam- paign fund and any individual from contributing an amount ahove a rea- sonable minimum and providing for the publication before election of all such contributions. Regarding the rights of the states the resolutions declare opposition to the extension of the powers of the general government by judicial con- struction and insist that federal reme- dies for the regulation of interstate commerce and for the prevention of private monopoly shall be added to, not substituted for, state remedies. Tariff. ‘We favor immediate revision of the tariff by the reduction of import duties. Articles entering into competition with trust-controlled products should be placed upon the free list; and mate- rial reductions should be made in the tariff upon the necessaries of life, es- pecially upon articles competing with such American manufactures as are sold abroad more cheaply than at home; and graduate reductions should be made in such other schedules as may be necessary to restore the tariff to a revenue basis. ‘We demand the immediate repeal of the tariff on pulp, print paper, lumber, timber and logs and that these arti- cles be placed upon the free list. Trusts. A private monopoly is indefensible end intolerable. We, therefore, favor the vigorous enforcement of the erim- Inal law against guilty trust magnates and offiofals, and demand the enact- ment of such additional legislation as may be necessary to make it impossi- ble for a private monopoly to exist in the United States. Among the addi- Honal remedies we specify three: First, a law preventing a duplication of directors among competing corpora- tions; second, a license system which will, without abridging the right of sach state to create corporations, or Its right to regulate as it will foreign corporations doing business within its limits, make it necessary for a manu- facturing or trading corporation en- gaged in interstate commerce to take out a federal license before it shall be permitted to control as much as 28 per cent of the product in which it deals, the license to protect the pub- lic from watered stock and to pro- hibit the control of such corporations of more than 50 per cent of the total pmount of any product conshmed in the United States; and, third, a law compelling such licensed corporations to sell to all purchasers in all parts of the country on the same terms, after making due allowance for cost of transportation. Railroad Regulation. ‘We assert the right of congress to exercise complete control over inter- state commerce and the right of each state to ‘exercise like control ovér eommerce within its borders. ‘We demand such enlargement of the wers of the interstate commerce .| commission as may be necessary to compel railroads to perform their du- ties ag common carriers and prevent discrimination and extortion, ‘We favor the efficient supervision and rate regulation of railroads en- gaged in interstate commerce and to this end we recommend the valuation of railroads by the interstate com- merce commission, such valuation to take into consideration physical val- ues of the property, the original cost of repreduction and all elements of value that will render.the valuation tiade falf and just. — 7 T Wé favor such 18&18)ation as will prohibit the railroads from engaging in business which brings them into competition with theb. shippers, also legislation which will assure such re- duction in transportation rates as con- ditions will permit, vare being taken to avoid reductions that would compel a redudtion of wages, prévent ade- quate service or do injustice to legitl- mate Ipvestments. We heartily approve the laws pro- hibiting the pass and the rebate and we favor any further necessary leg- islation to restrain, comtrol and pre- vent such abuses. ‘We fayor such legislation as will in- grease the power of the interstate commerce commission, giving to it the initiative with reference to rates and transportation charges put into effect by the railroad companies, and permit- tlng the interstate commerce commis- sion, on its own initfative, to declare a rate illegal and as being more than should be charged for such sérvice, Banking. The panic of 1907, coming without any legitimate excuse, when the He- publican party had for a decade bash in complete control of the federal gov- ernment, furnishes additional proof that it is either unwilling or incom- petent to protect the interests of the general public. It has so linked the country to Wall street that the sins of the speculators are visited upon the whole people. We beliave that insofar as the needs of commerce require an emergency curreney should be issued, controlled by the federal government, and loaned on adequate security to naticnal and state banks. We pledge ourselves to legislation under which the national banks shall be required to establish a guaranty fund for the prompt pay- ment of the depositors of any insolvent national bank, under an equitable sys. tem which shall be available to all state banking institutions wishing to use it. We favor a postal savings bank if the guaranteed bank cannot be se- cured, and that it be constituted so as to keep the deposited money in the communities where it is established. We favor an income tax as part of our revenue system, and we urge the submission of a constitutional amend- ment specifically authorizing congress to levy a tax on individual and corpo- rate incomes, in the end that wealth may bear its proportionate share of the burdens of the .federal govern- ment. Labor and Injunctions. The courts of justice are the bul- wark of our liberties, and we yield to none in our purpose to maintain their dignity. We resent the attempt of the Republican party to raise false is- sues respecting the judiciary. It is an unjust reflection upon a great body of our citizens to assume that they lack respect for the courts. Experience has proven the necessity of a modification of the present law relating to injunctions, and we re- Iterate the pledge of our national plat- form of 1896 and 1904 in favor of the measure which passed the United States senate in 1896, but which a Republican congress has ever since refused to enact, relating to contempt In federal courts and providing for trial by jury in cases of indirect eon- tempt. Questions of judicial practice have arisen especially in connection with Industrial disputes. We deem that the parties to all judicial proceedings should be treated with rigid impartial- ity, and that injunctions should mot be issued in any cases in which in- junctions would not issue if no indus- trial dispute were involved. We favor the eight-hour day on all government work. ‘We pledge the Democratic party to the enactment of a law by congress, as far as the federal jurisdletion ex- tends, for a general employers’ liabil- Ity act covering injury to body or loss of life of employes. ‘We pledge the Democratic party to the enactment of a law creating a de- partment of labor, represented sepa- yately in the president’s cabinet, Which department shall include the subject of mines and mining. Imperialism Condemned. We condemn the experiment ia im- perialism as an inexcusable blunder, fvhich has involved us in an enormous expense, brought us weakness instead of strength, and laid our nation open to the charges of abandoning a funda- mental doctrine of self-government. We favor an immediate declaration of the nation’s purpose to recognize the Iindependence of the Philippine islands as soon as a stable government can be established, such independence to be guaranteed by the United States as we guarantee the independence of Cuba, until the neutralization of the Islands can be secured by treaty with other powers. In recognizing the in- dependence of the Philippines our government should retain such land As may be necessary for coal stations and naval bases. We favor the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people, and regard this reform as the gateway to other national reforms, ‘We welcome Oklahoma to the sister- hood of states and heartily congratu- late her on the ausplcious beginning of a great career. WORRY DRIVES HIM INSANE Pennsylvania Man Suicides After Run- ning Over Girl. Erie, Pa.,, July 11.—Escaping from bis room in a hospital John Clemens went to the Marine National bank, where he was employed as a clerk, and shot himself through the head, dying soon afterwards. It.is believed Clemens was temporarily insane as a result of worrying over the serious Injury of a young girl whom he acci- dentally ran down with an automobile several weeks ago. While the girl is oxpected to recover Clemens worried constantly over the accident and was taken to the hospital for treatment. Honduras Rebels Capture Town. Managua, Nicaragua, July 11— News has been received here that the rebels who are fighting against Pree. ident Davila of Honduras have cap- tured the town of Choluteca and, fushed with success, are threateming Banta Barbara.

NEBRASKAN AN EASY WINNER Sacures First Place by Votes of Nearly Nine Hundred I of the Delegates. KERN Other Names Presented for Second Place Were GCharles A. Towne of New York, Glark Howell of Georgia and Archibald McNeill of Conneoti- out, but They Withdrew Before the Ballot Was Taken. BY ACCLAMATION Denver, July 11.—William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska was nominated for the third time for the office of pres- ident of the United States by the Democratic national convention amid scenos of frenzied enthusiasm. The rosult came after an all night ses- sion, which was kept in a constant state of turmoll up to the culminating moment when the Nebraska leader was proclaimad the choice of the con- vention as the Demooratic standard bearer. The nomination was made on the first and only ballot, the vote stand- Ing: William J. Bryan.. .892% John A. Johnson. 46 George Gray . .o. 59% Absent or not 5. veeen 8 The Johnson vote was made up of B from Connecticut, 2 from Georgia, 1 from:Maine, 9 from Maryland, 22 from Minnesota, 1 from New Hampshire, 3 ffom Poennsylvania and 8 from Rhode [sland. Gray’s vote consisted of 6 from Del- aware, 20 from Georgia, 24 from New Jorsey and 9% from Pennsylvania. The announcement of the vote was the signal for a wild demonstration, iequalling in turbulence if not in dura- Hon the record breaking display which |on Wednesday afternoon greeted the first mention of Mr. Bryan’s name in the convention. Vast Building Packed. The scene within the amphitheater pt the momeat the nomination was madé was one of stirring animation. From pit to dome the vast building was packed with 10,000 people; WILLIAM J. BRYAN, filnfied out in the remoter galleries ftor hours of waiting and the intense iscomforts of the hot night. Wwas a spectacle of immense proportions—tier on tier and gallery on gallery of agitated forms, the wo- men in white, the delegates massed below, many of them coatless, a myriad of fans fluttering to combat Ie stifling heat and close atmosphere ¥ this long pent up exuberant multi- ude, evet ready to spring into fever- Ish outbreaks of enthusiasm, and ev- erywhere the blaze of flags, bunting d patriotic devices and the envelop- |Ing folds of Old Glory. Twice before the throng had been moved into a mad ecstacy, first by the speech plac- Ing the name of Bryan in nomination and again when that of Governor Kohnmn of Minnesota was proposed; but these manifestations paled before the culminating outburst of emotion, Whole Assemblage Goes Wild, As the announcement of the Ne- braskan’s actual nomination was made thg whole assemblage rose en masse, waving flags, handkerchiefs, newspa- ers, hats and coats, anything and verything which hands could lay apon to wave aloft or hurl into the plr, twhile a bedlam of sound poured but from these 10,000 throats in ex- ultant yells, catcalls, Comanche war whoops, with the added din of shrivk- Ing horns, the roar of megaphones d the strains of the band playing an exultant anthem. ‘When for & moment order could be gecured out of this tempestuous chaos »1 demonstration state after state Which had at first recorded its vote for Johnson or Gray fell into line Wit} the overmastering column and the flomination was made unanimous and by acclamation. * The taking of the vote had been fol- lowed with breathless interest, as state after state swelled the Bryan strength. When New York was reached in the call of states the an- nouncement of Chief Murphy, “sev- enty-eight votes for Bryan,” brought out a wild outburst of enthusiastic ap- proval, which for' a time compelled the suspension of the roll call. A further delay was caused by a demand (Ton; —On thls poll Tany of the New York delogates, including Judge Par- ker, the presidential nominee four ears ago, remained silent, but the ntire geventy-eight votes of the dele- ‘unit ‘rule.” Pennsylvania was sim- ilarly called, after sharp disagreement within the delegation, and the vote of Pennsylvania, as finally cast, was divided. KERN . FOR SECOND PLACE Indiana Man Named as Bryan's Run- ning Mate. Denver, July 11.—John W. Kern of diana was nominated for vice pres- ident by acclamation by the Demo- cratic national convention.
