The call upon Mr.. Pfaender to run as an

WISE action to-day and five weeks solid
work will win Democratic victory in Min
nesota. It is no light contract, but it is
job which can be carried to successful
completion. No nominee to-day, however,
need imagine that he will have a walk over.
On the contrary, if he pulls through, it will
be by heavy work and great vigilance.

THE NEW YORK DEMOCRACY.

The Democratic party of the State of
New York holds the key to the political posi-
ton for the four years reaching from the
4th of March, 1881, to the 4th of March,
1885. The person inaugurated as President
at the aforementioned date will be able, if he
is discreet and wise, to perpstuate the domi-
nation of the party he represents for years
to come. That person, whoever he may be-,
must be resident of New York or fully &C.
ceptable to the people of that State, for
without the approval of the voters of New
York, no man can hope to attain the highest
honor in the gift of the people. ~
Such being the case, it appears to US sin
gular that the Democratic party of the State
should differ SO widely as to induce bolt.
The Tammany society has pretended to be
q part of the Democratic organi-
cation, but, in defiance of Demo-
cratic usage, it has declared itself
independent of the organization, and has set
up an independent candidate. That candi-
date declared, at the time of his selection,
that he did not expect to be the choice of the
people, but that he hoped to be able to de-
feat the regularly nominated candidate OF
the party. In other words he announced that
every vote cast for him would be vote cast
for the candidate of the Republican party.
This is the position Occupied by John
Kelly, the Tammany candidate for governor
of New York. Pretending to be. good
Democrat he has antagonized the policy OF
that party, and has thrown every obstruction
possible in the way of its success. He has
set himself up as the representative of that
ancient and honorable party, yet insists that
| those who support him shall 20 outside Of
the party to do so. No matter what the af.
lection of the society may be for Kelly, il
must be made subservient to the general
good of the whole organization. Senate,
Ecclesine, in speech sundering his oonnec.
ton with Tammany, hit the nail on the head
when he remarked: 80
1t is because Tammany hall has forfeited ali
claims on the honest Democrats Of New York
and marched into the Republican camp that ]
have thrown off all allegiance to her and am
here in the regular organization. The alliance
between Kelly and Cornell is as shameless a,
the alliance between confidence man and 8
bawd, who jointly agree to rob traveller, with
the mental reservation that they will cheat
each other when they meet to divide the spoils
The fact is stated broadly but truthfullJ
in the few sentences quoted. desertion Of
the party is simply surrender to the enemy,
No other construction can be placed upon it
and Tammany, by deserving the Demo.
cratic party, has turned traitor to it-has be.
came part and parcel of the Republican
organization. The only hope of success
that the Republicans entertain is that Tam.
many will attract to her support enough
Democrats to neutralize the legitimate ma.
jority OF the party in the State.

GRANT AS-A PRESIDENTIAL CANDI
DATE.

GRANT ASA PRESIDENTI4L CANDI-
DATE.
The recent arrival of Gen. Grant in this
country, and the magnificent reception ac-
corded him by the citizens of San Francisco,
has turned the attention of the people anew
to the possibility of his again becoming a
candidate for chief magistrate of the nation,
The enthusiasm his return to his.native land
has awakened has demonstrated his popular
ity among the rank and file of the people,
though it is decidedly distasteful to q
large number of the machine politicians,
who have had a different disposition of the
Office in view. They sec that he is still .
power, and by single word could upset
their we'll laid plans and make himself the
candidate of his party. The question with
them and with the people at large is, Will
he say the word?
There are good reasons for believing that,
no matter what Gen. Grants personal incli-
nations may tie, he will be the candidate of
the Republican party for President in 1880.
He has elements of strength that none of
the other candidates possess. In the first
place, his military services have endeared
him to many thousands of citizens who
would willingly do all in their power to
still further honor. him. Then he is sup
ported by that large body Of men who filed
the Offices during his two former terms
men we'll versed in political intrigue, who
are able to mould caucuses and conventions
as the potter moulds the clay. They are
unscrupulous as to the means they employ
to attain their ends, for they feel sure that
with Grant in the White House they would
be certain Of their reward. These are the
Robesons, the Pomaroys, the Belknaps, the
McKees-in fact, all the ringsters who grew
rich from the plumber of the people during
that long reign Of corruption and mismanage-
ment. Point to man who was member
of the whisky ring, the credit mobil-
ier combination, the naval contract
jobbery, or the infamous Indian
ring, and you can depend upon
his loyalty to Grant. He viii be active in
working up public sentiment on his behalf,
and loud in his praises Of 1.-the greatest gem
eral of the century, Though Gen. Grant
may be personally honest, he has succeeded |
in attaching to his cause lot of the most

DR.. Taylor's Last Attempt to Secure His
Liberty Proves Abnrtive.
Yesterday Judge Nelson filed his decision in
for discharge from the custody of the sheriff
of Ramsey county. The cause came to hear
ing on writ of habeas corpus and the county
attorney moved to quash on the ground that
the court had no Jurisdiction. In giving his
opinion Judge Nelson prefaced the order in the
case by stating the rules of practice obtaining
in such cases. Following which he states re-.
ferring to the motion to quash proceedings:
Such motion admits the allegations in the
petition. and the court must decide upon the
legal question thus raised.
In this case a motion is made to quash for
the want of Jurisdiction, upon the face of the
petition, and is allowed for the following
reasons:
Lit appears that the prisoner is confined
upon regular charge and commitment for a

1.-THE petition shows that the Offense is
exclusively cognlzable in the court of the State
of Minnesota.

In regard to the third point, there is a charge

process of law but it Is based wholly upon t he
| alleged refusal of one or more of the Judges OF
the State court to grant him the court habeas

The laws of this State providing for the is

to act upon petition can judicially determine
whether upon the case made out by the petit

The Afternoon. Inspection,

The inspection was resumed at 2 O'Clock, and
the afternoon performances were productive of
some of the most interesting incidents Of the
day. Tho several trials were witnessed by .
large concOurse of spectators who manifested
the utmost interest in the results of the tests.
At the hour named st. Peter street, from
Seventh to Tenth streets, was entirely monopo-
lized by sight-seeing citizens, and pedestrian
ism on that thoroughfare was almost out of
the question.
Each company was represented by its con-
stituencey of hackers, and the remarks passed
concerning the merits and capabilities of the
respective companies were frequently sarcas-
tic and highly amusing.
The exercises commenced with the trials of
hose companies, consisting of coupling the
hose to the steamer, which stood at the corner
of Exchange and st. Peter streets. The con-
ditions were start of 100 feet from point Of
connecting, on reaching which the signal to
''go" was given, when $50 feet of hose was
reeled off and the connection made by coupling
pipe to steamer.
Four hose companies entered into the con-
test, the several tests being observed by the
spectators with great interest. The tests were
accomplished in good time, the quickest work
being done by companies Nos. and 4, which
made the connection in thirty seconds each
from the time Of starting Following is the
result of the trials:
HOSE TRIALS,
to couple with steamer; distance $50 feet:
No. 1 hose, time, 50 seconds.
No: hose, time 80 seconds.
No. s hose; no time.
No. 2 hose, time, 81 seconds.
The engine trials were next called, the test
being on the capacity to throw the highest and
most powerful stream. The start was made
with cold water, with time taken from the ap-
pearance of smoke.

which was taken from the track aud braced
against the hotel in one and one-half minutes
The second test consisted Of raising b thirty
five foot ladder directly above and connected
with the sixtY-five foot ladder to the top of the
hotel, with fireman at the apex, all of which
was accomplished in twenty-five seconds.
The third and last test was highly interest.
ing, and the celebrity with which it was accom-.
plished was almost phenomenal. The truck
was started from Seventh and Washington
streets, running from the intersection of the
above named thorongfares to the Metropolitan
hotel, raising the ladder, with fremen at apex,
in the short space Of ffty-fve seconds.
The judges were highly pleased with the ex.
hibition. and tho bright, clean appearance Of
the engine houses and apparatus called forth
the heartiest manifestations of approval
Among the improvements needed, the commit
tee recommended the construction of q new
hay platform for engine honse No. 2, and that
certain changes be made with regard to repair
ing the doors IN the same building.

THE NEW YORK CRUSADE AGAINST RAILROADS.
In the issue of September 9th of the Pioneer
Press an article under this caption appeared,
Which reviewed in the issues Of the 7th and

In these attempted to show that we in St.

try in the proper solution of all points Of con-
troversy between the people and railroad cor
porations everywhere. 5,f,s f4:e.ss
In the replies made, which were not entirely
courteous nor devoid Of arrogance, that paper
maintains that shippers of through freight
from immense distances had advantages in
rates over intermediate points, which became
relatively greater the more the distance was
increased, and that these advantages were
based upon certain physical and business laws,
in. themselves, eternal and immutable; and
that ST. Paul being terminal point could well
that was creating great discomfort at these in
termcdiate points. ss&7ss saa5

Paul would not always be a terminal
point if the Milwaukee and Chicago
roads could find their way around

to us, and that then we would be vitality inter
ested in knowing that competing points at
Bismarck, Yankton, Deadwood, Helena, Ben

present system, which you uphold, relatively
lower than we get them; that it would be an
Arbitrary and tyrannical act to tax us by dis
examinations in rates to build up the trade
Of those points; that service should be paid
for by those benefited; that somebody has to
pay for time and distance that are given to
long shippers at rates ridlculouslY dispropor-

other grievances which are exasperating the

Atlantic to the Pacific should be settled by the
establishment of fixed principles in our con
