STRAIT,S BOOB.

The GLOBE publishes this morning a sig
nificant interview with Hon. II. B. Strait.
The Republican party is very much agitat-
ed by the contest for the gubernatorial NOM
nation between Pillsbury and Wakefield.
The contest is becoming 90 bitter that the
selection of new man is much more proba-
bic than the nomination of either one of the
prominent candidates. There are a multitude
of candidates for all of the other Offices, and
as a consequence there will be a large num-
Der of trading delegates in the convention.
AS lively elimination and recrimination is
already in progress between the friends
OF Pillsbury and Wakefield, the
chances of slate being made up
independent of either of these gentlemen
is exceedingly probable. Early in the can
vass Major Straits name was more promi-
nently mentioned than Pillsbury's, and the
Strait wave is again looming up. In the inter-
view with GLOBE reporter, on Saturday,
Major Strait disclaimed being candidate.
but with more frankness than politicians
generally possess, he expressed willingness
to accept the nomination if it was rendered
him with unanimity. This was fair and
manly, and it enables Major Straits friends
to shape their action accordingly.
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1879-08-04

party were men who had perilled their lives
on the field of battle in defense of the Union.
It has been alleged that the Democrats were
trying to starve the government. So silly q
statement has found few believers, for it
amounts to tho declaration that they are
wanting to starve themselves Ian exceed
ingly improbable and nonsensical notion.
The last assertion that the Republicans
make is both malicious and false. They de-
clare that the States rights doctrine advo-
Gated by the Democrats is doctrine that
will recognize the right of secession. We
have no hesitancy in saying that this is
utterly false. The union of States is an es-
sential part Of the doctrine of States rights,
and the maintenance of that union is as
dear to Democratic as to Republican hearts.
We cannot believe that those who make this
charge believe it to be true. Indeed, the
accusations of the Republicans against the
Democratic party of want of patriotism are
all of a piece SO manifestly unjust and un-
true that no candid or honest man will give
them moments credence. Let us have
fair play.
