BLUE EARTH City, Sept. 3O.-Last We'd
nesdsy's sun dawned bright and fair on the
people of Blue Earth City, who we're wide
awake in anticipation of the coming events
of the day. Before the hour of noon dele-
cations had arrived from different PORTIONS
of the county to attend the Democratic
county convention which was advertised to
take place on that day, but on assembling
was adjourned for good and efficient rea-
ons to later period.
At B O'Clock P. NJ. q large concourse Of cit
liens, represen ting almost every portion of
Faribault county, together with commit
tee of reception, assembled
at the depot to welcome
our distinguished visitors and speakers of
the evening, viz: Judge Fl. r. Wells, Hon. NJ.
j. Severance, and ex Senator Wilkinson.
In the early part of the evening, the sound
of the blacksmith's anvils, charged with 10y
al powder purchased with Democratic money,
gave notice to the people to assemble at the
Court house. and by the time your CORES
pondent got there, the house was literally
packed.
The meeting was called to order with Hon.
Geo. B. Kingsley presiding as chairman,
Judge Wells was the first speaker introduced
and from the manner he showed up Col.
Dunnell's record on the tariff and other
questions, including the attention given to
his remarks, showed conclusively, that if the
question of Dunnelfs retirement from the
Office of Congressman was left to that audi
ence to dispose of, he would in all prob
ability get out Of the way, as fast as he did
when he deserted the flag of his country, at
the battle of Boil Run.
Hon. MD. Severance was next called upon,
but owing TO want OF time careful synop-
sig of his address cannot be given, bat the
expectations of the audience we're fully
realized in listening to the most complete
logical and mastery production ever deliv
cred in Faribsult county on political topics.
Among other things, the eminent speaker
proved the doctrine that all Democrats be-
lieve in, viz: That soft answer turneth
away wrath, and that dinner of herbs,
where love exists, is better than stalled OK
and hatred therewith thst the hope Of rec
onciiiation, so long deferred by the Repub
lican party, maketh the heart of the nation
sick.
To "Ool." Dunnsll's allegation that the
Democratic party, as a party, was disioyal
he gave the country to emphatically under
stand that such falsehoods we're only born of
a desire in his heart, and in the breasts of
those who make such assertions to blind the
psople, whereby they may retain their hold
on the commissiariat Of the government for
sll time to come.
Hon. III. s. Wilkinson followed Mr.. Sew
eranoe in short but telling speech, worthy
of the steel of which he is made.
The Blue Earth city brass band furnished
the music. The Ward and Dunnellites
meet in convention next Saturday to nomi-
Date legislative and county ticket, when
the cohesive power of public plumber will
manifest itself, as usual. The advent of
Messrs. Wells, Severance and Wilkinson Yves
heralded in by shower, when the shower
became storm, leaving tempest behind it,
which won't let up nor abate until the sun
goes down On the idss of November.
SOLDIER WHO WORE The BLUE.
