The Democrats Solid.
St. Cloud Times-Dem. |

Judging from their columns, the
Washburn organs are terribly worried
over Donnelly's nomination. They
are continually asserting that the
Democrats will not vote for him but
for Washburn. This is all bOsh.
There are not a dozen Democrats in
the district outside Of Hennepin coun-
ty. who will vote for the pine ring
nabob.

The National Bank and Ring Candidate.
Litchfeld Independent

Washburn has no sympathy for nor
fellowship with the great and agricul.
tural and laboring class Of this dis.
trict. He is a national banker, q
member of the Minneapolis pine land
ring, and as the Pioneer Press says,
will spend thousands Of dollars to Sc.
cure his election in order that the
ring may avail itself of his services in
congress to cover up its pine steals.

Hastings UniOn.1

The Democrats are confident that
Mr.. Donnelly can and will clean out
Washburn for congress in the third
district. The Maine election has
helped to demoralize the Republicans
of Minnesota, and if the ball is kept
rolling, in the eternal fitness Of
things, Donnelly will scoop the pine

There is great agitation among the
people of the state upon the question
oflwheat grades. The Mankato Record
says:
No 3 wheat will yield within one
pound as much flour as last year No.
l, and the flour is allowed to be par.
ticulavly good. That is, the differ.
ence in point of yield between the
two grades is only fraction nre. 4
| per cent. But fhv u1Herence In the
money wbicn mills and elevators offer
Tor the two grades in still nearly 4C
per cent, after the recent revision OF
prices by the Mil,er's association
How is thisa Farmers ought to be
able to get more yet for their No.
wheat.
Considerable dissatisfaction exists
along the line of the st. Paul and Pa.
cific roads with the grades of wheat
established by the Milwaukee board
OF traed and the Millers association of
Minneapolis and the prices offered
therefor by these parties. This feel.
ing prevailed to such an extent that a
short time ago, several gentlemen
having considerable wheat at Her.
mann and beyond. combined and
shipped their wheat through to New
York, where after paying all ex.
penses, they netted 90 cents, an in

The SenatOrShip.

We print in another column few
of the many notices which have come
under our observation touching the u.
s. Senatorsbip. They show unmis-
takably the drift of public sentiment
to be in favor of Hon. 4. W. Reyes
of Madison. And this is as it should
be- Mr.. Keyes has never faltered in
his devotion to the republican party,
and on account of his great services to
it, no less than for his fdllity and abil-
iitv, he is deserving of recognition.
We hope to see him elected. He
would be one Of the most useful re-
representatives. Wisconsin ever had in
either branch of congress- Thorough
" conversant with the people and wants
of the state, and an infatigable worker
who never tires in the performance of
any duty devclving upon him, be would
at once take commanding rank In the
senate, and become one of its most valu-
able and popular members. We believe
in saying this that we reflect the views
not alone Of the republicans of Jeffer.
son county, but of the state at large,
and for that reason we have little doubt
that the legislature will, as it should,
accord MIR. Reyes this coveted distinc-
tion and honor.

The Press on the Senatorship.

Madison Democrat: Col. Keyes'
chances for the senate are looking up:
the Milwaukee Sentinel has opened
fire upon him. The SentinePs opposi-
ton will be worth good many votes
to Reyes.
Waupaca Republican. The Repub-
h'can is not one of the kind that thinks
there is but one man ip the state who
would make a good senator. Among
the candidates who are now before the
people, it recognizes several who
would do honor to the position. OF
course it has preferences-.its first
and second choices; and its first is
E. w. Reyes.
Chippewa Herald: The La Crosse
Republican affects to be indignant be-
cause Postmaster Moak of Watertown
aud Payne of Milwaukee, have dared
to express choice as to the United
States senatorship. If their choice
however, had been any one but Keyes,
the Republican wouldn't have felt SO
bad But Reyes name always did
send that paper into a conniption fit.

nor, Murphey says:
From the effects of this defeat the Rerub
ican party did not recover until this i'm
pudent boaster had been deposed, and
man ia harmony with the progressive spirit
OF the day placed in his stead. Although
removed from the craftsmanship Of the
Committee, &C.
Now as matter Of fact, Mr.. Reyes
was not "deposed' from the chairman
ship of the state central committee, but
retained it until the close of the term
for which he was chosen, when he de
clined reelection. Furthermore
Mr.. Reyes was chairman Of the COM
mttee in 1876, when the state was
redeemed after one of the hottest con-
tests ever known, and carried for Hayes
and " heeler; which is sample of
Murphey's want of truthfulness in all
questions so far as Reyes is concerned.
But no matter, Murphey, so on with
your lying, and by all means continue
your abuse of Keyes Don't fail also
to go for his friends Twill do him
and them good, and strengthen them
with the people, as events in the past
have clearl y shown. You know you
tried to beat Caswel in this district by
your wllful Misrepresentation, and he
was elected by over 5000. You waged
war on senator Burroughs, In the Madi-
son district, because he is a friend of
Keyes, and he was re elected by a
largely increased majority. You ad-
vised the defeat of senatorSackett in the
Waushara district, because of his sup
posed liking for Reyes, and tbs repub-
licans gave him 1900 majority against
about 25O two years ago. You tried
to beat other republican, candidates
elsewhere, but in not single instance
were you successful. You prayed for
the defeat Of Phillips, Bullock and
Ostrander in this county and they too,
were victorious against great odds.
Your opposition was really advanta-
geous to them We admit the fact,
and are thankful to you for it. As
friends of Keyes we trust you will
pursue the same policy towards him.
Meanwhile. cheer up, take a more
hopeful view of matters, eat light food
eschew all stimulating beverages, retire
to bed early that you may have sweet
aud refreshing sleep, and see if an i'm
provement in your physical condition
may not also promote your happiness
politically.

Matt Carpenter and the SenatOrship.

A correspondent of the Madison
Democrat writing to that paper from
Lancaster takes ground in favor of
Matt H. Carpenter for U. S. Senator,
as follows:
Who is our choice for senator, YOU ask.
Matthew H. Carpenter every time. Let
me remark on the outset that | am. a
Democrat, but Carpenter man all the
same. The democrats generally in this
part of the state are for Matthew He is
the best man the republican party of Wis
consin can pro3uce--the best and ablest,
all things considered. When he gets
back into the senate, which he will with
out fail, he will carry on in a high spirit
ed, independent sort of a way, and if the
moral we-are-holier than-thou portion of
his party goes to discipline him, he will
turn tail, kick their pitiful brains out and
then charge full gallop right over into
the democratic pastures green and mead
ows fair, wherein he will soon develop
into a conspicuous leader with 'war-
horse characteristics. There is another
reason why the democrats are for the
mighty Matthew. His election at this
time will go desperately against the grain
Of the rural republicans who still talk
about and wax wrathy over back pay
steals, salary grabs, Long Branch, nest
hiding and all those cheerful little mat
tiers which go to keep up the gayety on
the nations.
There is something here for repub-
licans to canddly consider. 1t is sig
nifcant that democrats are all in favor
Of MIR. Carpenter; although but few
are frank enough to admit, as does the
correspondent above quoted, that it is
because they expect or at least hope,
to be the gamers politically by his
election.
