THE REPUBLICAN CONTEST,

The contest for nominations on the Re-
publican State ticket is now fairly inaugur-
ated. Only two weeks remain prior to the
convention, and the county conventions have
already begun to be held. Pillsbury is ma
king vigorous push for the third term, and
is not only calling to his aid his personal
friends, but is credited with dispensing the
swag with which he is abundantly provided.
Gov. Pillsbury is reputed to have net in
come of over one hundred thousand dollars
per annum, and is consequently in good
shape to open his b'rl. He is certainly
one of the wealthiest men in the State
and he has entered this contest to win.
As there is no party allegiance to compel a
Republican to support any particular man
for the nomination, there can be no charge
of bribery if Gov. Pillsbury employs friends
to work up the third term wave. He is am.
bilious, and desires to go to the Senate. A
defeat for the gubernatorial nomination
would end his career politically. While he
is good business man, he does not possess
any great amount of education or command
ing ability. If he loses his grip now he can
never regain it. He has an additional in
centive in the fact that Bill Washburn is a

rival candidate for the Senate, and if Wash
burn can defeat Pillsbury's nomination for
Governor, he relieves himself of formidable
rival. Gov. Pillsbury, therefore, has more
at stake than any one else in the contest,
and his friends declare that he will expend
fifty thousand dollars rather than be defeat
ed. There is no doubt that there is q
chance for neat little speculation for those
Republicans who have been shrewd enough
not to commit themselves to any candidate.
They can obtain very liberal compensation
for couple of weeks service, by applying
to ex-Gov. Marshall, Private Secretary Pussy
or Capt. Macy, the Governors confidential
clerk, these being the three lieutenants on
whom Gov. Pillsbury chiefly relies.
With Wakefield, Billson and the others
the situation is somewhat different. They are
not wealthy, and rely entirely on popular sym,
pathy-an element which rarely wins against
the b'rl. They have been sneering at Pills
bury's candidacy until recently, but they now
suddenly discover that they have no mean
competitor. Wake6eld's frequent visits to
st. Paul to consult with his henchmen shows
his alarm. Wake6eld's supporters have been
loudly proclaiming that he was sure of Ram.
sey county, but they made significant con.
fession of weakness on Saturday. On the sup
position that, al. least with,the active sympathy
of the Democrats in their favor, Ramsey
county would be sure for Wakefield. it was
the Intention to hold an early convention
here and get the benefit which would accrue
from instructions for Wakefield. When the
county committee met on Saturday, though
it was controlled by Wakefield men, they did
not dare run the risk of an early convention
and hence Ramsey county will not appoint
delegates to the Republican State convention
until Saturday, Aug. 30th. AS the State
convention meets Sept. I'd, every county
convention in the State will be held on or be-
fore August Both. Ramsey county will there
fore cut no figure whatever previous to the
State convention. The only thing the Wake
field men can claim to have gained by this
course is to prevent Pillsbury receiving the
advantage of Ramsey county boom. This
is great change from their previous bio
Walton, and shows weakness which augurs
very probable defeat.
The first county conventions of the cam
paign was held on Saturday, and the follow

The time of holding the twenty first an
nual fair of the Minnesota Agricultural So
ciety is fast approaching. From the present
outlook it is very apparent that it will prove
IN no degree less in its attractions than OF
former years. The executive committee
have bent every effort toward making it a
success, and we believe it will be theirs to
realize that such it has proven in accordance
to the full significance of the term. Large
herds of blouded stock will be represented
from more than dozen States. The horti-
cultural, mechanical and fine art depart
ments will be by far more attractive than
ever. We would urge upon our farmers
more especially the Importance of having
Southern Minnesota represented at the
State fair. To them it will prove productive
OF much good, as it will stimulate in their
minds the necessity of promoting improve
ments in propagation, culture, breeding, etc.
They should bring their wives, sons and
daughters with them, for it will. be the best
place whereat they can 'steach one another, .
byviewing and comparing the results of in
telligence and we'll directed labor, and freely
discussing the mode of culture, etc. Re-
member the dates September LIST, I'd, Sd,

THE PEOPLE RESPONDING.


The collection of extracts from State
papers which we print this morning relative
to the State fair, together with the numerous
extracts we have previously given, demon
strates very clearly the feeling of the PEG
pie of the State relative to the State fair
which is to be held in this city the first
week in September. 1t has taken good
deal of time and effort, but it is
at last being clearly understood
that the State Agricultural Society is State
institution, IN which every citizen ought to
feel pride and interest. 1t is no longer
wrongfully regarded as st. Paul fair, be-
cause this is the most central location for
holding it, and has grounds superior to any
other in the State. st. Paul, as portion of
the State, co-operates with the remainder of
her fellow citizens in making an exhibition
for the whole State. The only question
there has over been relative to the
success of the State fair was
the course the people of the State would
pursue in its support. If they were to treat
it as local st. Paul matter, failure would
be certain, for no single city OF county can
make State fair. It gives US pleasure,
therefore, to be able not only to announce
but to present the proof, that the people of
the State understand it is their enterprise,
and that every man in the entire community
is interested in its success. That fact settles
the success beyond all peradventure.
The State fair is not to be horse racing
pool selling. gambling affair, but an eshibi-
tion of our stock, agricultural, and
mechanical products. AS such, il
is an advertisement, an emigra-
ton document, which can be made worth
millions of dollars to the State. The farme,
or the merchant or the manufacturer who
makes an exhibition, does more than make q
mere display or an advertisement for himself
He aids in increasing the value of every
dollars worth of real estate in the State. The
display will be inspected and pointed at as
evidence of the capacity of the State, and if il
properly shows what, I've can do it will be the
grandest advertisement which we can make
There is every evidence that the situation is
fully understood and appreciated, and the
exhibition, which will open two weeks from
to-day, bids fair to be truer exponent o.
the capacities of Minnesota than any of it,
predecessors.

see no reason why the exhibition should not
be the best ever held in this State. Already
the space is nearly all taken, while more can
be easily furnished if desired. For those
who wish to exhibit stock, produce, or other
articles, the abolition of the entrance fee
system, except on the race track, will be
quite an inducement, while every exhibitor
can compete for premiums in every class.

st. Cloud Times.
The sole objects of these State fairs is
''the advancement of agriculture, horticul-
ture and household arts, an object which is
general in its nature and for the good of the
whole State-not for the pocuniary benefit
of few private individuals. We have al
ways thought and still believe that the PEG.
pie of Minnesota shonld aid and encourage
our State society in preference to private en-
terprises. Hence, we regret to see a few OF
our papers, among them the Pioneer Press,
throwing cold water upon the State fair, yet
never losing an opportunity to "puff the
Minneapolis show, which is o scheme for the
benefit of Bill King, and with no other OBJ
]ect than the making of money for that
gentleman. We have no objection to his
giving an exhibition for his own benefit
What we insist is that Minnesotians should
sustain their own society in its labors fol
the general advancement of agricultural an6
horticultural interests.
