CONSIDERING that this Is an "olf"
year In politics, the Minnesota Repub-
lican Convention must have been an
unusually lively affair. The newspa-
pers Of that State declare that the
result Is nothing more MOI less than a
revolution In the political history OF
the State. Thus the St. Paul Dispatch
remarks: "rhe nomination OF Davis
was a political revolution. 1t means
that the young, active and intellectual
element In the Republican party has
come TO the front and proposes to es-
sablish a new order OF things. IL
means that the political life OF Alex.
Ramsey aud his immediate adherents
has terminated, and that the iron rule
Of a corrupt ring can no longer sway
the destinies Of the State, making and
unmaking mel at will"

their call for n county convention they
recognize the fact that the issues for

order that the new issues which have
arisen may be more fairly aud fully
discussed and the real Eense Of the

now it has been increased. according
to the State Auditors report, to the
sum Of $4l. COS, 7SS 90.
