e. st. Julien Cox Endorsed at Home.
The Minneapolis Tribune has re.
port of the indignation meeting at St.
Peter on the evening of the 18th. VIM.
Huey presided and on taking his seat
made a speech during which he said
saw by the st. Paul papers
the next day that they had
made gross Misrepresentation
as to the proceedings of the
convention, and think they grossly
insulted the while delegation. by stat
ing that the delegates had been bought
up by Straits money. This is abso-
lutely false, and l think it more likely
that Mr.. Blakely, Of the Piottser, was
bought by Strait money. One Of the
Pioneer bummers, named C..
H. Rice has been travelling
through this district for the last three
months misrepresenting Mr.. Cox. This
man Rice has written kilograms and got
other men to sign them, to send to the
Pioneer for publication, misrepresent
ing the action of the people and the do
ings of certain county conventions, and
continually blowing against and abusing
MIR. Cox. l was at St. Paul the 9th
and 10th Of June, and heard this man
Rice abuse Mr.. Cox in crowds On several
occasions. l think st. Paul has run
the State long enough; she is only for
such men as she thinks will do her bid.
ding and work alone for her interests
and her men.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Huey's
speech, the committee on resolutions
submitted the following:
WHEREAS, By the recent action Of
the Democratic Autobiography Conven-
ton, held at Shakopee, September 9th,
Hon. f. St. Julien Cox was fairly NOM
mated as candidate for Congress; and
WHEREAS, Certain pretended Anti.
Monopoly newspapers in St. Paul are
endeavoring to overthrow such nomina-
ton, to the advantage Of the Republi-
F, can party; therefore, be it
Reso;red, That the Anti Monopoly
and Democratic party of St. Peter un-
qualifedly condemn the course Of those
wolves in Sleeps clothing, and brand
their editors as traitors and disorgan-
izers, and hold them as enemies to the
cause of reform. Furthermore, we de.
clare that the course Of the St. Paul
Pioneer, in its lying and cowardly at
tacks upon E. St. Julien Cox, deserves
the exccration of all honorable men
without distinction Of party, and the
paper itself utter reputation by the
friends of reform. Va. t
Resolred, That in the Hon. E. St.
Julien Cox we recognize the honorable
man, the qualified and faithful public
servant, and unhesitatingly pronounce
all reports to the contrary, as base fall
sifications and vile ISLANDERS, fit only to
be circulated by the enemies Of the
people. ft
Resolred, That we believe this at.
tack upon our candidate to be made in
the interests of the St. Paul Ring, as
opposed to the agricultural classes
and is all the more virulent because of
his well known honesty, ability and
fearlessnes; and because they are salts
fed he will not become their tool for
corrupt purposes. .t
Resolred, That the St. Paul Pho
'aeer having expressed the opinion that
the delegates were political scaven.
gers" hired by Straits money to pre-.
pare dish Of Coz 'swill,' thereby at
tributing his nomination to corrupt mo-
tlves, we suggest that d. c.. Blakely
could be bought by Mr.. Strait much

gates, whose motives he has impugned.
Rssolrsd, That upon Mr..
| Cox's return to :. St. Peter.
the Secretary Of this meeting be re.
quested to furnish him. With copy Of
these resolutions and tender him pub.
lie reception, to which his fellow citi.
zens invite him to testify their apprecia.
ton of him as man and citizen.
| Resolred, That a copy Of these reso-
lutions be forwarded to the Hinneapo.
lis Tribune, the Anti-Monopolist, DIS
PATCH, Volteblddt, of st. Paul, and pa.
pers throughout the district are res
pectfully requested to copy.
These resolutions were unanimously
adopted, with three hearty cheers.

the Pioneer in strong terms. he thought
the opposition Of the St. Paul papers
would not hurt Cox when it was under
