When the first ballot was taken In the Joint assembly It showed that the F. M. 15. A. men had dropped Strcctur for John P. Stellc , editor of the Progressive Farmer of Mount Vornon. Three moro ballots were taken and the demo crats moved for n recess until fl p. m. The motion fulled to receive a majority of the votes nnd the balloting was resumed. C The republican steering committee held a meeting this morning nt which the thrco F. M. II. A. representatives were present. The latter were informed that the republicans were unnblo to come to any conclusion In re- gurd { to the proposition Involving the nnmes . of Streoter , Moore and Stclle. Chairman Fuller asked the farmers whether they would ho willing to entertain a counter proposition from tun. republicans , suggesting certain republican candidates from whom the F. M. U. A. would bo invited to take their choice. "I will state to you frankly , gentlemen , " said Cockrell , "that I think It will bo useless for your committee to make any prop osition of that kind to us. I feel satisfied wo can never conslstuitly support a regular stnlwnrt republican for United States senator. " Tno conference came to an end without any conclusion. The republicans then Issued a call for a joint senatorial caucus this ovo'i- ing , at which the question of fortn.illy accept ing or rejecting the proposition of the farm ers will coir.o up lor settlement. The democrats are moro confident than over tonight of the ultimate election of Pal mer to the senate. The feature of today's events was the conference of Congressman Jerry Simpson of Kansas and the democratic leaders upon a proposition Involving the sup port of Farmers' ' Mutual Benefit asso ciation members for Palmer and the reciprocal support of the democratic members of the South Dakota legislature for the election of a farmers alliance candi date. Speaker Crafts , received a few days ago , from C. E. Holso of Algona , S. D. , a letter saying the Illinois democrats should urge South Dakota democrats to vote for an alliance man for senator. If the Illinois alliance mon vote for Palmer In return It would take two senators from the republicans where they nro not now sure of one. Congressman Simpson said this evening that ho thought It good policy to ngrcoupon reciprocal action between the democrats and alliance men In Illinois and South Dakota. Ho behoved South Dakota politicians will enter heartily Into the movement. Knnnlci'r Crafts , after a conference with General Palmer nnd the democratic steering committee , has answered Hoiso that the democrats of the Illinois assembly arefuvoru- blo to the proposition and the matter is being discussed. If Cockrell and Moore of the Farmers' Mutual Honeflt association party ngreo to the proposition the democrats will call a joint caucus , formally pass resolutions urg ing such a combination mid forward thorn to the South Dakota democrats ana ulllnnco men. Simpson of Kansas said this evening : "If a farmer can bo elected I am for a farmer of course , but if u tanner cannot bo elected I freely confess that I hope the senator will bo a democrat.1' . . . . * . * < . . , . The republican members of the legis lature held n lentrthy caucus tonight for considering the Farmers' Mutual llcneflt association delegates' proposi tion. Many speeches were made , nnd , while the general sentiment wns rather In favor of a combination to beat the democrats , several prominent republicans declared flatly their disapproval of any scheme to throw the republican vote to a "political nondescript. " Finally , at midnight , without taking any do- clslvo notion , the caucus recommitted the whole subject to the steering committee "with power to direct any notion deemed to bo to the best ndvantngo of the party. " 'Tho committee will confer with the farmers again tomorrow and repeat the proposition that the republicans bo allowed to suggest some names. Farmers' Mutual Benefit association men tonight nnnounco In advance that this propo sition will bo rejected. The prospect for republican - publican success Is not bright. Late tonight the republican steering com- rnittco decided to submit the names of LInd- loy , Judge Grcsham , Representative Hunter and possibly Lafayette Funk to the F. M. B. A. men tomorrow.
