ST. PAUL, MIMI. July 20, 1872
The liberal movement In Minnesota has, OF late,
developed considerable activity, thanks to the
action of the Democratic National Convention.
Minnesota has always been stanch republican
State, and though the wise men OF both parties
have agreed that the fight is going to be close
one, with majority under five thousand and per-
haps less than twenty-five hundred for the winning
side, the State has generally been regarded as good
for five votes for General Grant. AS things are
going at present, the State is not at all
sure for Grant nor half certain for Greeley.
The democrats have taken to the Greeley nomi-
nation very heartily, and action will be harmonious
especially the State elections are of little conse-
quence, thus avoiding local complications which,
though but slightly Affecting the result of the ma
tiona election, will mix up matters very badly in
the Congressional districts. The whole democrat tic
vote is likely to be cast for the Cincinnati nominees
and will be mp to the average The regular rcpub.
leans are well organized ana vigorously managed
by Senator Ramsey, and will make good fight.
Their newspapers are well In hand but have too
strong infusion OF Federal oficoh0lding to carry
weight outside OF the party. The Irish republicans
will 20 very strongly for Greeley.

almost certain the transfer OF thirty five hundred
or four thousand OF these votes to the Cincinnati
nominees. The liberals claim even MORE and some

The Portland Press tiranD declares that the

Grants adherents begin to 'swine."
The Grant papers in Maine are throwing hot shot

state for Greeley. He has explained to the Port.
land Post the scandalous charges made against him
by democratic Journals when he was stamping the
country for Grant, I'm regard to his carrying a
lcwd woman with him when he went abroad as
Minister to Chile. He asserts that the only woman
In his party was his mother-in-law a lazy sixty
years OF age, and that his lst wife died just before
he started. In the name OF decency cannot these
private scandals be kept out of the arena of
politics.
