JOHNSON IS NAMED
DESPITE REFUSAL
MINNESOTA DEMOCRATS RENOMI
NATE THE GOVERNOR.
DOUBT AS TO HIS COURSE
Mention of Executive's Name Starts
Tumult That Lasts More Than
an Hour Ticket
Compfeted.
Minneapolis, Minn.. Aug. 20. The
Democratic state convention met
Wednesday In Minneapolis and after
a scene -of ' indescribable tumult,
caused by the mention of his name
and which continued for 64 minutes.
Gov. Johnson for a second time was
nominated for re-election.
This action of the convention was
contrary to his wish, since he had re- j
peatedly refused to be a candidate and j
declared ' that If nominated the cam-j
paign would be carried on without a ;
general. His secretary, Frank A. Day, j
faid he had no knowledge of the gov-1
ernor's Intention and refused to make '

might be.
Stampede for Johnson.
In the roll call of counties Aitkin
yielded to Ramsey and Mayor Law lor
of St. Paul began his eulogistic speech.
At the first mention of Gov. Johnson's
name the delegates forgot his repeatedly-expressed
objection to be consid
ered and went into a frenzy of en
thusiasm. The aisles and the stage
were quickly filled with delegates,
yelling like Indians, and executing war
dances upon the press tables, all the
while repeating the name "Johnson,
Johnson." A huge photograph of Gov.
Johnson was seized from its place on
the platform and borne aloft by a
delegate.
Meanwhile the band had struck up
"Marching Through Georgia," and
Gov. Jehnson.
quickly following in line with county
banners waving wildly a procession
was formed which many times encir
cled the liall. Banners were put into
the hands of ladies among the spec
tators on the platform and they were
forced to join the yelling throng.
Remainder of the Ticket.
Owing to the unsettled condition of
the minds of the delegates at the open
ing of the convention regarding the
entire ticket it was decided that a
committee, to be composed of one
member from each judicial district,
make recommendations for the filling
of all places on the ticket except that
of governor.
The following recommendations
were made by this committee and
adopted by the convention:
Lieutenant governor Julius J.
Reiter of Rochester.
Secretary of state Richard T.
Lamb of Clayton.
State treasurer Kenry F. Nelson of
Nibbing.
Attorney general M. E. Matthews
of Marshall.
Railway and warehouse commission
ers Hans P. Bjorge of Ottertail coun
ty, Robert Nee of Rice county.
Farrington Is Chairman.
When the opening remarks of Mr.
Day were ended. State Senator Far
rington of Ortonville , was made tem
porary chairman. Committees on cre
dentials, permanent organization and
resolutions were chosen. A recess
until two o'clock was taken to enable
the committees to do their work.
Upon reassembling the temporary or
ganization was made permanent.
After the nomination for governor
was made the platform was read. The
resolutions presented indorsed the es
tablishment of the harvesting machin
ery plant at the state prison at Still
water: favored a wide-open tax amend
ment to the state constitution,
favored a non-partisan judiciary, to be
elected at separate elections; favored
the election of United States senators
by popular vote; indorsed the initia
tive and referendum, and favored a
radical employers liability act, elim
inating the feature of contributory
negligence on the part of the employe.

Beautiful Sheet of Water as
Battleships Pass Through
the Heads.
Sydney, N. S. W., Aug. 20 Early
Thursday morning a thin veil of
smoke on the horizon signalled to the
watchers on the coast the approach of
the American warships, and at 5:35
oflicial notilication was sent out that
the fleet had been sighted.
It was yet 20 miles outside of
Sydney harbor, but this word, which
had been awaited eagerly by tens of
thousands, started Australians like a
call to arms and almost instantly
those who had not left the city to take
up points of vantage along the bays
were moving in droves to line the
quays, roof tops and other places on
the harbor front, to Match the coming
of the warships from the new world.
The day broke bright and clear and
so intense was the interest in the
American ships of war that half the
populace remained awake the entire
night and thousands upon thousands
of them long before the night was
over were on their way to the hilltops
outside of the city limits, where they
congregated seemingly in unbroken
lines along the coast from Bondi
Beach to Manly.
Beautiful Scene in Harbor.
It is estimated that not less than
half a million people assembled to
give the visitors a royal welcome.
Sydney harbor, with its innumerable
bays and coves, never looked more
beautiful nor did the American sailors
ever witness a more inspiring sight
than that which met their eyes as the
white ships came through the chan
nel, past the great headlands into
Port Jackson.
A hundred thousand people, the
greatest single assemblage of all, gath
ered on the smith heads, where a mag
nificent view of the whole scene was
to be had. Hundreds of craft of all
kinds moved up and down even at
that early hour, all the waters with
the exception of the fairway and the
anchorages being dotted with little
and big vessels decorated in every
conceivable manner with flags and
bunting.
Saluted as They Pass the Heads.
in perfect alignment, the flagship
Connecticut leading, with Rear Ad
miral Sperry on the bridge, the war
ships came out of the horizon, first a
jit tie smoke showing and then the
hulls, low down in the distance.
Passing in through the Sydney
heads, in double column, at Intervals
of 400 yards, the ships looked to have
a world of speed and power under
their glistening sides. The fleet w.as
attended by convoy steamers and
greeted with a roar of salutes from
the forts as it steamed slowly along.
The thousands ashore and afloat added
their cheers to swell the noisy wel
come srnd countless British and Ameri
can flags were flung to the breeze.
The American ships boomed forth a
salute to the port, and as soon as they
were safely moored at their anchor
age, official visits were exchanged.
Nebraska Gets Heavy Rain.
Lincoln, Xeb., Aug. 20. A heavy

called to the Terminal station to quell
a riot that broke out among two com

When the local police officers were
unable to curb the soldiers, a call was

The trouble started early in the aft-
ernoon when a number of soldiers
broke out of their cars which were on
the side-track at the Terminal sta

passengers entering trains. Officer
Hill of the local police force knocked
two of the soldiers down and then the
trouble became general. Col. Thomp
