Jamestown, June The 1 Independent state convention placed the following ticket in the field today: congress, Walter Muir, of Cass county; for governor. E. D. Wallace, of Steele county; for lieutenant governor, L.E. Uelaud, of Lamoure county; for attorney general, W.

H. Standish. Nelson county; for auditor, A. W. Porter, Lamoure county; for state superintendent, Laura Eisenhuth, Foster county; for insurance commissionrr.

Stev ens; for supreme -judge, George O. Newton, Burleigh county. The convention was determined to nominate for leading places independents. This created some disappointment among friends of Democrats who were willing to fuse. The middle-of-the-road policy, was declared best by a large number of delegates.

i -Wallace was nominated on the first informal- ballot. He is the lieutenant governor of Ihe state at present. The auditor, attorney general, Stale superintend. Insurance commissioner and Railroad Commissioner Stevens aud Cameron are rcnoiniuatious. The general feeling is that it is a strong ticket, and tbe delegates are unanimous In -declaring a steady growth of the party in the state.

Mrs. Eisenhuth is the only woman state superintendent in the country, and has made such an excellent record that her renomination was made by acclamation. Counties were represented in the convention which never before sent delegates. The platform favors the free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver at the ratio of 16 "to 1, supplemented by government notes exclusively until the volume of the currency reaches 150 per capita. It favors government ownership of railroads and telegraphs, reduction iv state expenses in every department, the initiative and referendum and the strict enforcement of all slate laws without discrimination.

The resolutions approve i female suffrage and the penalty clause in the prohibition law. The platform contains nothing on prohibition, although a strong sentiment favored the indorsement of it.

Washington, June As the end. the fiscal year is only fifteen days distant, treasury officials are able to' give a fairly accurate estimate of the net results of the treasury operations for Hie year.

Up to this time the receipts aggregate 9282,204,711, and the 'disbursements 197.337, leaving a deficit for the eleven and a half months It isthought by the treasury "officials that the total deficit for year. will not.be" materially greater than it is vow and that 874,500,000 will probably more than cover i it. Even should the customs to decline, and those from internal revenue -remain as during the fortnight, while the cash balance today reached and the gold balance the lowest point siuce the January bond issue, the situation Ist causing but little uneasiness at the treasury department. The I progress made lon the tariff bill during the last few days has encouraged the belief that will become a law by July 15, and iv that case treasury experts V- are confident there will Vbe necessity for another bond issue. They argue that as soon as importers know what duties they will be required to pay, they will at once place 1 their orders that have been held during the last several months pending the tariff settlement.

A large increase the receipts from: internal revenue ie expected also.

The miners' representatives were told In plain terms before passing the resolution that when the dauger line was reached 1 would favor saving all that could be saved rather than meet defeat, with its consequent demoralization and disaster." VV': "Do you think you had reached tbe danger live at the time; the agreement was made?" VV: 'V The "reply to this, in substance, was that the men had been held in line by the agitation. funds," continued Mr. "were exhausted, and we were hundreds of dollars in debt, and our field" workers, unable jto pay their own expenses, were compelled to stay at home, while, from all points came the cry 'For God's send us men or money to keep our men in line, or the fight is We could I not aid them, because we had no money.

If money does not come from some source, the next issue ot our official journal will be the last. We have a dozen men in jail for conspiracy, among tbe latter W. B.

stating that a contingent of Coxey's 'between thirtyfive and forty in number, had captured train of the company. jj-lt) was reported that they were aided and abetted citizens of Dawson.

General Manager Kendrick stated that the i seizure took according to his information, between 11 and 12 o'clock the forenoon. "There were deputy marshals hand," said he, "but not in if sufficient numbers to prevent Coxey recruits from taking our train.

Other marshals were sent for from Fargo." VV Beyond these meager facts Mr. Kendrick had no information. Speaking in general, Mr. Kendrick "The Northern Pacific has so far made about 700 arrests, and now we have about 250 incarcerated in the various jails in Washington and Montana." Another railroad man said yesterday "Do you know 1 believe the railroads and authorities have made a mistake in delaying the march of Coxey's army to Washington. -I think it Would have been a good thing to have given them every possible facility to reach the national capital.

It they could only have been allowed to swarm into Washington they might have forced congress to adjourn, which would be a good thing for the whole country." WORTH LF.AGTJERS.
