Things to Remember.

Democrats should remember, when they
go to cast their ballots, that HENRY NJ
RICE has never allowed political fealty to
come in conflict with his recuniary interests
that he has always made individual con-
siderations paramount to political principles
that years ago he supported wing adj
ministratien appointee for Congress in OPP
position to the democratic candidate that
last fall his friends and his organ, the Dem
ocrat, supported mongrel ticket Of Wings
and Know-Nothings for the Legislature in
opposition to the regularly nominated dem.
ocratic ticket-that the Convention of the
25th of July, which nominated him for re-
election to Congress, was composed of
Wings, Know-Nothings, and bogus demo-
Gratis, and that it did not dare to pass a
single resolution which would indicate it to
be party convention-that it actually vot-
ed down resolutions setting forth the dem
ocratic creed, and that it adjourned without
affirming its adhesion to anything but de-
votion to its leader Mr.. RICE. They should
then remember that the democratic candi-
date, DAVID OLMsrED, is the antipode of
Mr. RIcE--that all acknowledge him to be
an honest and upright, man who will never
sacrifice the interests of his constituents to
personal considerations one whose
ability, education, and talents fit him to
adorn the distinguished post in which the
Democracy are determined to place him.
Let them but fairly scan the merits of the
two men, and there will be no difficulty in
deciding that DAVID OLMsrED is most wor-
thy of their support.

Commissioners of Benton and Hennepin coun-
ties are about putting ferry in operation
just above the mouth of Rum River. A great

New BUILDINGs.--The brick building of
the Messrs: Upton is rapidly climbing toward

Its dimensions are 30x6O.
ID. Edwards is laying a foundation for SIM

rear of G. A. Nourse's residence. 1t will not
be completed this year, bnt when finished will
stand on the slope of the bluff, and be two
stories high on Second st. and four stories at
the foot of the bluff.
GRADING.--Pine street, which ascends the
bluff nearly in rear of the old Post Office
building, is finally being put through course
of degradation which will make it reasonably
go-up-able for team.
ROw.--On Saturday night disgraceful
fracas took place between several steamboat
men and some Irishmen. The parties abused
each other first with insulting words along the
road from ST. Paul, then meeting at Checver's
grOg-shop and taking little more devil-watel
they proceeded to general melee. On Mon
day morning, four of the Irishmen were COM
piained of before Justice BOstwick who fined
one Of them S25.
The st. Anthony Mills are still, except as
occasionally one or two saws are put in opera

The Prospect.

The chances of the complete triumph of
the Democracy over Riceism and Fusionism
are Increasing every day. From all parts
of the Territory, we hear of accessions to
Mr.. OIMsrED, the Democratic candidate,
and of detection in the ranks of the RICE
faction. Here, in Saint Paul, the home of
the ex-Delegate, Mr.. OIMsrED will get a
large majority.
The equivocal position of MIR. RICE on
the Know-Nothing questionable twofaced
position to the settlers and half-breeds on
the Lake Pepin reservation-his collision
in the removal of the Winnebago Indians
his presumed instrumentality in bringing
the lands on the west side of the river into
market, and his pretended efforts to get
the sales postponed, now that he finds the
public voice opposed to this untiring ef-
forts whilst in Congress to build up points
in Wisconsin in which he is interested, at
the expense of Minnesota-and the general
belief in his sel6shness and want of political
principle--are having their legitimate effect
in the withdrawal of all confidence which
democrats ever reposed in him, and will end
in bis most ignoble defeat in the fall This
event is sure one, and one "most devout-
ly to be wished for"

aso.spomcment OF the Sale Of Lands.

This morning, we publish, in another col
umn, call for meeting of the citizens of
Ramsey County, numerously signed by our
most prominent and influential residents, to
convene at the Court House, on the even
ing Of the 9th of September, to take this
matter, so vitality important to the future
prosperity of the Territory, Unto considera-
ton Should this sale take place, notwith-
standing the united and earnest efforts that
are being made to have it adjourned, it will
be a blow to the future wellbeing Uf Min
ncsota, from the disastrous effects of which,
it will take her years to recover. The feel
ing against the measure, is almost unani-
nous among the people of the Territory,
and we hope to see this meeting attended
by every citizen of the County, and such an
expression of feeling had. as will show to
the Department at Washington, that in
Justice to the hardy pioneers of our infant
Territory, this sale should be postponed
at least until our settlers are better prepar
ed for such movement on the part of the
General Land Office.

FIRE

Saturday morning, about three O'Clock,
the alarm of fire was sounded throughout
the lower part of the city, and in short
time large number of persons appeared
upon the scene of conhagration, but the
flames made such rapid progress that all
efforts to save the building proved unavail
ing. The house consumed was situated
just below the foundry of Mr.. F. GILMAN,
and at the time was kept as boarding
house, by German, whose name we did
not learn. 1t was supposed that one of
the boarders, out of spirit of revenge, set
fire to the house. The loss to the proprie.
tor must have been considerable.

DEATH OF MRS. CAPTAIN RE1D.-Mrs. Reid,
wife of Captain Samuel G. Reid, so distin-
guished in our naval records for his defence of
the brig General Armstrong, against the Eng
lish squadron at the port of Fayal in 1914,
died at Wheeling, Va, on Sunday last, in the
62nd year Of her age Mrs. Reid was the
daughter of Captain Nathan Jennings, of
Fairfield, Connecticut, who shared the fatigues
and glory of Trenton in the Continental Army
under General Washington.
She had been on visit to one of her sons
in the West, and had lately gone to Wheeling
to attend to the erection of monument over
the grave Of her eldest son, Lieut.. Reid, of the
U. 5. A, who died there some years ago. She
was distinguished for her domestic virtues and
as being one of the most accomplished and
beautiful women of her day, a contemporary of
Mrs. Madison, Mrs. General Macomb, Mrs.
William Writ, and others, by whom she was
greatly esteemed. Her brilliant talents and
enthusiastic feelings, at the time Capt. Reid
became distinguished for having fought the
battle of the brig General Armstrong, drew
around her the most eminent men of that pc
riod. On the occasion of the adoption by
Congress, in 1918, of Captain Reds design
of the present flag of the Union, Mrs. Reid,
with the aid Of some young ladies, made the
first "star-spangled banner" which was dis
played for the first time on the Capitol, at
Washington, on the 18th of April, 1918. On
that occasion, Mr.. Clay was Speaker of the
House of Representatives, and complained
that Mrs. Reid and the ladies should have
oeen permitted to make the flag without being
remunerated.

A VALUABLE SPoUsE.-A Mrs. SMITH, of

hour, just to let him have the length of my
