he clamor Of the ST. Paul papers really
the sentiments Of leading
Democrats and Liberals, we requested our
general agent, Col. A. II. Taisey to inter-
view those he might happen to encounter
n his travels. He tells us that the only
earnest Fisher men he encountered were
The Ramsey Republicans.
INTERVIEW WITH HON. JOHN :. MEAGHER, Of
MAEKATO.
Reporter-Mr. Meagher, has the Fisher
wave reached Mankato!
Mr.. Meagher The newspapers would
make us believe that it was universal.
If Mr.. Fisher is nominated / shall sur
port him; but deem it very bad policy
for the newspapers Of the State to At
tempt to manufacture or forestal public
opinion in that manner. It is particu-
larly unfortunate that the candidate
should come from thAt corrupt old con-
Germ. the Pioneer. Mr.. Fisher is good
man, but he is like poor Tray ;--he4 has
been caught in very bad company. l
think Mr.. Fisher or any other candidate
would be better off with the Opposition
than with the support Of the Pioneer
Press / am extremely anxious to see
candidate nominated who will receive the
cordial support Of the ANrI-MoNoPoLIsT,
for consider the supper: Of that paper
esscnti0lto success.
Our reporter next called upon
HON. II. ). SEVERANCE,
Of the same city.
Reporter. Has the Fisher Wave en-
gulphed everything in your section of the
country, Mr.. Severance
Mr.. Severance. Not much. Tho news
papers Of St. Paul will find, when the
State Convention gets together, that their
attempt to manufacture public opinion
for the purpose Of keeping the Governor
ship in St. Paul, is failure. The day
has passed when the press Of the coun-
try can forestall the will Of the people in
these things. Fisher is = good man, but
he has kept very bad company besides
Fisher will not be the next Governor. |
do not propose to mix in politics. l am
lawyer, and have all want to do to at-
tend to my profession. l am satisfied
St. Paul will find herself in the minority
| in that convention. The country news.
papers make perfect fools of themselves
apeing the metropolitan journals. If
| they would have more independence tho
people would have more respect for and
1 confidence in them.
INTERVIEW wrrH HON. AMOS coGaswELI-

ported Is favoring the Fisher Wave.

Coepswell-Well, am not particularly
struck with that matter. Fisher Is .
GOOD man, but We need . different kind
! Of stuff from what he IS composed Of for
8 Governor.
81 Rep.-As between the. candidacy Of
Fisher and Davis, what will BE- the result
in Steele county,
Coggswell-All can say about that is,
t am not mixed up with newspaper poll.
!; tics; and have too much confidence il
I the intelligence Of the people to belieUl
: that Mr.. Fisher uiH be nominated.
: think the people Of this State will think
twice before they bow to the shrine o.
! the Pioneer Press- As for me, shall
| take care Of my friends and myself.
Reporter. But that does not answer
my question - to the candidacy Of Fisher
and Davis.
Al Cogswell. Well I cant answer tia

/. there is nobody gives the matter
q thought yet except the newspapers
y There is long time from now to elsstion
Mr.. Davis has given very general salts

i precedent Of his predecessors, having re
le ceived : denomination and il he j. op
of posed by anything that smacks Of Ram
sey persecution, he will carry Steel
county BY large majority. Good night
