nomination ought to draw out the full
vote of the lumber regions.
For Secretary of State, A. Bierman,
County Auditor of Olmsted county, was
nominated. He was personally unknown
to nine-tenths of the members and the
fact of his receiving SO large vote as
he did, against SO deservedly popular
man as Hon. w. 7. Bonniwell Of
Mcleod county, testi6es to the earnest
desire of the Convent on to CRAFTY the
great Scandinavian element Of the
State.
For State Auditor the Convention
nominated Hon. Michael Doran, of LIE
Sueur ;-one of the best and ablest men
in the State. Mr.. Doran did not seek
| the nomination, but the Irish element in
lac Convention said that he must take
it; that year after year the different
State conventions had honored the
Scandinavians and the Germans by State
nominations, while the Irish element
had been persistently ignored, until it
came to be considered that they We're tit
to vote but not to hold office; and that
they must assert their right to an equal
recognition with the other leading ma,
tionalities.
Mr.. Doran came to Minnesota
driving yoke OF oxen and wag-
on; by industry and good sense he has
achieved large fortune. He is an
Anti-Monopolist. Every time he has
been elected to Office he has had to fight
railroad influences; and there is not a
plank Of the Grange platform that does
not find in Michael Doran an earnest
and Jealous advocate. He will poll an
immense vote in the Minnesota valley.
Albert Scheffer Esq, of Ramsey Co.,
was nominated for State Treasurer.
The Minneapolis Tribune, ''the only
clean-cut- Republican paper of Mime
sofa" calls him "a St. Paul Dutchman," !"
thus indicating its sovereign contempt for
the great Germanic race which has done
more for the development of scientific
thought and the prosperity of mankind
than all 1.-THE clean-cut" Republican pa
pers on the planet. Mr.. Scheffer is per-
sonally splendid fellow ;-young, en-
ergetic, honest and honorable. He will
poll every German vote in the State,
Democratic, Liberal or Republican.
Hon. Lafayette Emmett. OF Rice Co.,
was nominated for Chief Justice. Judge
Emmett was formerly Chief Justice,
and whenever the cause of the people
came in conflict with the claims OF their
| enemies his heart was on the 81 de OF the
people. He is an able lawyer and
true man.
''Dick Jones'" of Rochester was nom-
mated for Attorney General. Dick has
got his faults and has made his
mistakes, but he is genial, whole -souled
man and will make a brilliant canvass
for the cause. In point of legal ability
he has few superiors.
The people will ask that be place him.
self squarely on record on the great
questions Of cooperate aggressions, and
if he does this they will, we think, give
him n hearty support.
Hon. j. w. Sencerbox of Scott Co.
was nominated for Railroad Commission
er. Mr.. Sencerbox has been repeatedly
elected to the Legislature from Scott
county and has earned an excellent rep
utation as a careful, accurate and inteli-
gent gentleman.
A. A. Mcleod, of St. Louis county, was
nominated for Clerk of the Supreme
Court. He is highly spoken of by his
friends and neighbors.
What is needed now is q bold. yieor-
Gus and aggressive campaign. Messrs.
Buell., Durant, Doran, Scheffer, Emmett.
and Jones are all public speakers. They
should not let the grass grow under their
feet until the day of election. Each
should make ninety-days' canvass. Go
to the agricultural classes; meet them
in the school houses; show them the
constant increase of taxation under
Radical rule; expose the iniqui.ies of
the Tariff and appeal to the people for
support The whole frontier must be
thoroughly canvassed and organized.
The State Central Committee must do
their whole duty. and every mar must
pat his shoulder to the wheel.
This done and success is certain.
