He was born Sandusky eounty, Ohlo, July 11, 1861. In 1885 he removed to Nebraska, making his residence first at Beatrice, where he prac- tgei law six months, and then removed to Beaver City. About two yea ago he transterred his residence to MeCook. One of the west end delegates, In speaking of him very truthfully said: “He s the kind of & man who can roll ‘up a majority of over votes for -himsélf in a dis- trict, whigh at the same time give a ma- jority of‘over 600 'votés for the fusion nominees on the State tieket.” This hap- pened when Judge Norris was a candidate for a sgcond term of the position, which be now holds. Never since the days of the big repub- lican majorities in this section of the state has there beén’ so much Interest manitested in & congressional convention. From each of the eighteen countles came an enthusias- tic delegation, and candidates were almost numerous as when the republicans out- numbered the fuslonists in the district by several thousands. About half of the dele- gates arrived last night and the others came on the early morning trains. Nearly all of the candidates opened headquarters in the Bostwick this morning, but did noth- ing more than receive their friends and mingle with the crowd. ' The utmost har- mony prevailed in the preliminary skir- mishing. In the handshaking the eandi- dates were joined by two aspirants for the gubernatorial nomination, J. P. A. Black of Franklin and J. B. Dinsmore of Clay. The prospects of carrylng the district this year for the republican ticket are.ex- ceedingly good. Sin¢® the populist ygar of 1896 the, fusion majorities ,have grown steadily ...,“fm dnd,on state and, national tickets have disappeared, the McKinley electors recelving & majority of 489 votes and Judge Sedgwick a majority of 1,701. In 1500 Webster L. Marlan, the republican nominee for congress, was defeated by only 409 votes, In 1892 the fusion majority for congressman was 3,260. Since and including that year the district has voted for con- gressman as follows: Republicans. veeees 14,280 @ And Sanguine. AI!‘I‘C'I was defeated by McKeighan in 1892 by 3,260 and In 1894 he defeated Mec- Kelghan by 860. In the presidential year, 1896, Andrews was again a candidate, but was defeated by R. D. Sutherland. In 1898 C. B.'Adams was the party nominee, with Butherland again on the fusion ticket. Encouraging Reports. Reports from throughout the district are encouraging for republican success. The galns have been general in all counties, commensurate with the gain in the district at large. A very different feeling was man- Ifested by the delegates today from that which characterized other similar gather- Ings in recent years. It was a feeling that the man named in this convention will be elected. The action of the convention leaves no sore spots among the delegates. The contentfon for the nomination was earnest to a marked degree, but not to the pxtent that the defeated partisans feel keenly their defeat. Chairman J. W, James says the district pught to go republican by not less than 2000 votes and he- thinks the majority will be twice that large. ' v Home Town Eiated.

ELKINS, HOWEVER, REFUSES TO GIVE UP Will Fight Quay te Last Dt ter Expects to Become Ch of Republican State Central Committee. ' HARRISBURG, Pa., Jufie'10.—Judge Sam- uel W. Pennypacker of Philadeiphia likely will be the nominee for governor of the re- publican state convention tomorrow. Ex- State Senator Willlam M. Brown of New Castle will be nominated for lleutenant governor, and Major Isanc B. Brown of Erle will be the candidate for secretary of in- ternal affairs. Senator Quay expeots to succéed General Frank Reeder of Easton as chairman’ of the republican state central committee and conduct the campaigh’ this fall. Attorney General John P. Elkin of Indl- ana is stil] battling for the nomination for governor, but his most sanguine adherents concede Pennypacker's. flomination. * Elkin sald tonight that he would stay In the fight to the finish and that his name would be presented in the convention. Ex-Lieutenant Governor Loule A. Watres of Scranton practically took himself out of the contest when his delegates partici- pated in tonight's caucus called by the Pennypacker manager: Wa name will also go before the convention and the indications are that he Will' poll ‘about 25 of the 358 votes in the gathering. Bitterness Between Leaders. The meeting of the state committee to prepare the roll of the delegates this aftes- noon rhowed that there exists an unexpected bitterness between the leaders of the rival factions. Elkins, however, {s pledged In his speeches during his campalgn to stand by the ticket, and it is naturally expected that his adherents will do likewlse. Several times during the committee meeting Senator Qudy, léader of the Pen- nypacker forces, and Attorney ~General Elkin, who was p personal command of his adherents, shook their fingers in each oth- er's faces and threatened political reprisais it each was not givem Mir treatment in the disposition, of the contested seats in the convention. State Chairman Reeder ac- cused Senator Quay of making deliberate misstatements and the senator instantly replied that this was.an insult which he resented. The Pennypacker forces had a declsive majority In the committee and United States Senator Penrose was named for temporary chairman Both the Pennypacker and Elkin delegates yheld caucuses tonight to agree upon a plan |of action. The Watres delegation attended the Pennypacker conference. The result was the election of Senator Penrose for temporary chairman of the convention and Congressman Sibley of Franklin for per- manent chairman. The Pennypacker-Watres caucus was attended by 206 delegates, 180 being necessary to control the conven- sion. JONES FORMALLY SET ASIDE Former Democratic Leader Turned Down to Make Room for His Suecessor, Clarke. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., June 10.—The fea- ture of the democratic state comvention, which: convened at- noon today, was ‘the ovation to former Governor James P. Clarke, who was declared by the convention to be the democratic nominee for United States senator to succeed Semator J. K. Jones. The friends of Senator Jones op- posed the resolution, and it was stated that Senator Jomes demurred to the action of the convention. The resolution was adopted by a vote of 420 to 78 and the formal declaration was then given on the basis of the vote in the democratic primary elections of March 29 last making Clarke the nominee for sena- tor. Governor Clarke then addressed the convention and was accorded the greatest ovation in the political history of Arkan- sas Governor Jefferson Davis was unani- mously renominated, the name of Colonel E. W. Rector of Hot Springs being with- drawn. Governor Davis, in addressing the con- vention and accepting the nomination, an- nounced himself a candidate for United States senator to succeed’ Semator James H. Berry, whose term expires in 1905. The tollowing nominations were miade for state officers: Secretary of state, DeWitt. Attorney general, G. W. llurvhy of Little Rock. , State treasyres, # U. Tipto of Harrison.

Wovemente i 14 labor mo' Plan to Obvia Possibly Entangling Tieups Between Candidates. RED CLOUD, Neb.,, June $.—To the Ed- itor of The Bee: Permit me as one of the old settlers of this state and an old-time republican, to make a suggestion for the consideration of the members of the next republican convention—a suggestion that I think the exigencles of the times now de- mand, namely: All the present state offi- cers are candidates for renomination with the exception of governor. The Indications seem to point to the fact that for the nom- ination of governor we shall have a host of candidates. There seems to be a di- versity of opinion as to the man to be se- lected for this office, hence great interest will be felt in the result, and perhape many combinations will be attempted by designing politiclans that will prove some- what embarrassing for the other gentle- men whom it is generally conceded are entitled to a second term without any op- position. 1 would suggest that it would be wise to reverse the usual order of proce- dure and proceed to nominate the ticket trom the bottom of the call first—proceed upwards until the office of governor and leutenant governor are reached. In this way the present state officers who are con- ceded and are entitled to a renomination will be ved embarrassment and political entanglement, and will be foot loose and at tull liberty to assiat in the selection of the best and most available timber presented for their state leader. I am convinced that this is & most important matter for the earnest consideration of the convention. ‘We must nominate and elect our best men to office—we must have & harmonious con- ventlon—we must keep Nebraska in the republican column—we must retain the confidence of the people of the state in the integrity of our party and show by our ac- tions that the people, and not the manipu- lators, procurers, political bosses or cor- porations control our conventions. In other words, we must do away with packed caucuses and snap conventions. We do not want good, true and tried men to lose thelr individuality and political integrity, but have them directly responsible to the peo- ple—public servants who have proved themselves capable, eficient and honest in admibist n of public affairs should not be embarrassed by the power of state, county or ward bosses, corporations, polit- fcal wire pullers and slate fixers. Let the people control our next convention, and when the people have an opportunity to show thelr strength, their power and their abllity, then the hue and cry of misman- agement, corruption and corporate influ- ence will cease and be a thing of the past, and the republican party will be the gainer. The rank and file of the republican party can always be depended upon, political bosses mever. The people of Nebraska want such of our present state officers who have proved themselves worthy of remomination renominated without entalling upon them any alliances that would or could prove a detriment to their efficlency. If in the wise judgment of the convention there is anyone who seeks a renomination who has proved recreant to the trust reposed in him by the people, the people will turn him down, but while we retain our confidence In them let us help them to retain their political in- tegrity without subjecting them to any mis- alliance of any kind. Now is the opportune time for the people to demonstrate that the republican party is a party of the peo- ple and not of bosses or corporations. If ‘we expect success in the forthcoming elec- tion in the state the will of the people must prevall in the nomination of clean men, without the ald of undue influences— men who will inspire the confidence of all the people.

MASONS IN GRAND LODGE Masonic and Eastern Star Orders of South Dakota Hold Annual Session in Hurom. HURON, 8.

GENERAL DECLINE IN THE NORTHWEST Nebraska Shows Three Hundred and Winter Wheat. WASHINGTON, Jume 10.—Preliminary re- ports of the spring wheat acreage indicate a reduction of about 2,561.,000 acres, or 12.8 per cent. Of the nineteen states reporting spring wheat, thirteen ‘report a roduc acreage, Washington being the only state having 100,000 acres or.upward in this product that reparts an increase. There 1s a reduction of 745,000 acres in Minnesota and of 908,000 acres in North Dakota, due largely to unfavorable weather conditions during sowing time In the Red River valley; a reduction of 100,000 acres in South Dakota, resulting in the n from an Increasing tendency towards a greater diversification of crops, and re- duction of 340,000 acres in Nebraska, con- sequent upon that gradual ylelding of spring wheat to winter wheat, which Is going on in almost every portion of the state. The average condition of ring wheat on June 1 was 85.4, a8 compared with 52 at the corresponding date last year, 87.3 on June 1, 1900, and a tem-year average of 92.6. The present reported average con- dition has been exceeded only three times in the last fifteen yeafs. South Dakota Leads. Of the states having 1,000,000 acres or upwards in spring wheat, South Dakota reports a condition of 100, North Dakota 9 and Minnesota and Towa 95. In Wash- ington and Oregon, which together have over 1,100,000 serég Yo spring wheat, the condition uveugé 7 and 93, respec- tively.

The total repqrted acreage In oats Is about four-teriths of' 1 per: cent In excess of the mcreage harvested last vear. The changes in acrewgy are very evenly dlis- tributed and are generally inconsiderable, twenty-five states and territories report- ing some enlargement of their acreage and twenty-four some reductions. Of the mine states having 1,000,000 acres or upward, Ohfo, New York, Illinots, Wisconsin and Minnesota report an increased acreage, no case exceeding 4 per cent, and Pennsyl- vania, Indiana, Towa and Nebraska a de- crease, which only In the last mentioned state exceeds 1 per cent. Comparative Ave The average condition is 90.6, against 85.3 on June 1, 1601, 91.7 at the correspénd- ing date in 1900 and a ten-year average of 90.

The acreage reported as under barley exceeds the acreage harvested last year by 8.5 per cent. In the states having 100,- 000 acres or upward devoted to this crop, there is an increase amounting to 1 per cent in Kansas, five points in South Da- kota, Washington and California, 8 per cent in Minnesota and 95 per cent in North Dakota, the increase in the state last named, being almost entirely due to the substitution of barley for wheat, where wheat seeding was restricted by long con- tinned wet weather. On the other hand there is a decrease of 1 per cent in Wis- consin, 2 per cent in New York, and 3 per cent in Iowa. Barley Better Than Last Yea The average condition of barley is 93.6, as against 91 on June 1, 1901, 82.2 at the corresponding date in 1900 and a ten-year average of $8.6. The averages are ex- ceeded by 2 points in Washington, 4 in Min- nesota and Iowa, b in California, 6 in North Dakota and South Dakota and 10 in Wis- consin, while New York and Kansas report conditions 2 and 5 points, respectively, be- low such average.

It includes provisions for two first-class battleships, two first-class ar- mored cruisers and two gunboats, but strikes out the house provision that one of each shall be built at government yards. When consideration was resumed of the isthmian canal question Mr. Turner de- livered an extended argument in support of the Nicaragua route. He maintained that the new Panama com- pany could not pass a clear title to the Panama Canal company's rights for fran- chises and property to the United States and that it this government purchases it, it would be with all its encumbrances. Mr. Morgan discussed the legal difficul- ties of acquiring the Panama canal prop- erty and declared that the United States could not buy the property without acquff- ing the emcumbrances upon it.

The' house ‘then adopted a special order fof the comsidération of the Corliss Pacific cable bill by a vote of 108 to 73, and for the rémainder of the afternon listened to the author of the measure argue in favor of its passage.. Mr. Dalzell of Perusylvania announced that he wgs opposed to the government building a cable to the Philippines. He sald he favored the construction of an American cabje by American capital, and gave notice that at the proper time he would offer as a substitute a bill to author- ize the president to contract for the con- struction of a cable under certain condi- tions. The minority of the commerce committee oppose the Corliss.bill on the ground that the Commercial Pacific company s now at work building a cable, which is to be laid by 1905, In defense of his bill Mr. Corliss sald the easure provided for a government' cable uniting the United States fslands in the Pa- cific with the American continent. By its terms the cable ehall be American made, laid by American ships and managed by the American government: He argued that no one had & rlght to lay a cable without the permission of congress, He placed the cost of construction’at not exceeding $10,- 000,000 and thé cost of ‘operation at $400,- 000 per annum.
