c4Mp 4IGs TO WIN.

The Third Congressional District
Democratic Convention will assemble
at Minneapolis at ten O'Clock
this morning, to place in nomination
standard bearer for the coming campaign.
The convention should understand that this
is to be campaign to win, and govern itself
accordingly. 1t should select standard
bearer above reproach-one whose name
will of itself be an omen of victory. This is
no holiday campaign. 1t must be an earnest
and emphatically fighting campaign.
There is no occasion for defensive
campaign or an idea that the Democracy are
merely 'going through the notions" This
is not the year for that kind of business,
and the Democracy of the Third district is
fully in earnest.
The Republican nominee, Bill Washburn,
is the very symbol of all that is corrupt and
scoundrelly. He is personally and political
ly dishonest and corrupt. His highest idea
of politics is the bribing of voters. He
bought his bogus majority two
years ago and is relying upon the
same tactics in the present canvass.
He stands forth literally as the embodiment
of oil of the vicious elements which affect
American politica. He is branded by an
official Congressional committee as BRIDE
giver and corruptionist. His own parts
know and despise him. A purse-proud
sristocrat, his very candidacy is an insult to
every honest man. Without political friends.
save as his money may bring to his support
the carrion of his party, he is at once the
weakest and most infamous representative
which his party could have
selected. His defeat is more thar
possible-it is decidedly probable. In biz
official conduct he is actuated solely by the
idea of securing public plumber. He stands
as the representative of the timber thieves
and his chief efforts as member of Con
gress have been in endeavoring to relieve
his thief friends from the pains and penal
ties which their crimes merit. He bought
his original nomination as well as his bogus
certificate of election, and he relies upon his
experiences in rascality to give him second
victory.
This ID tie feast the Republicans have
spread before the voters of this district. II
is not palatable dish for the Republican
party, and wise nomination by the Demo
cratic convention to-day will be the death
knell of the bride giver and corrnptionist.
The campaign should be made aggressive
War to the knife against the oorruptionist
aud knife to the hilt in the vitals of the
bride giver.

WAS 1T A HOAX?

The Audience that Assembled In London
to See the Baroness Burdett-Co1 Mar
rted.
The London correspondent of the Manohes.
ter Guardian, in recent Issue of tina. paper.
says:
1.-THE Chapel of the Hospital of st. John the
Savoy, or as it is now improperly
called, st. Mary LIE Savoy-was the scene this
morning of something very like practical
joke. Last week several Of tho so-called $50
ciety" papers announced that the marriage of
the Baroness Burdett-Coutts with Mr. Bart
lett would take place this morning. Society
itself seems to have echoed the rumor, and 1t
appears to have been very gen.
orally credited that at l:30 o'clock to-
day would see the celebration of this long
and much talked or union. Accordingly,
after the usual morning service, many of those
who had assisted at it fingered in their seats.
More arrived to swell their number, aud before
the time mentioned in the rumor the chapel
was as full az it could well be. The church
yard also was thronged, and even In the little
Savoy street leading from the stand the pave
ment was crowded with bystanders. Inside
the edihce there was something in the compo-
sition OF the assemblage which to q shrewd
judge might have, it was suggested, suspicion
of what actually afterWard took place The
were niDeteen-twentieths females. and of these
nineteen-twentieths were young women, appar-
emily of the shop girl oroer, and there was
no representative of ''sOciety' whatever
no seat near the altar reserved for
friends, no friends thems elves, and. above
all. as the time drew near, no appearance of
bridegroom and ''best man" It should have
been manifest even then that if Hamlet were
to be acted it would be without the Prince of
Denmark. Still less YVES there any indication
of bride or bridesmaids.
sat length the clock struck ii, the Rev. Mr..
White, the chaplain of the Savoy, emerged
from the vestry attired in full canonicals, and
at once cut short to the initiated all hopes of q
marriage by ascending the pulpit instead of
suteriRg within the rails of the alter. There
he paused for a moment and then in very
low tone OF voice, which was scarcely audible,
he said few worsd to the effect that be pre-
sumed most of those present had come there
to witness certain ceremony, but that he had
to announce to them that it
would not take place. This astound-
ing address was received with q moment or
two's dead silence, but wss followed In the
next moment by a universal utterance of sup
pressed. but still very obvious, merriment.
by this time the clergyman had left the
pulpit and was returning To the vestry, but he
suddenly turned round, and, confronting the
audience with palpable indignation in his man
ner said something apparently expressiD his
disapproval of the manifestation, aud desired
them to remember that they were in church,
not in an assembly roomr he then retired, but
it was long before the church could be cleared
and still longer before tho church yard could
be emptied and the gates closed"

Ladies'. a Word With You.

Possibly you may have some idea of the re-
markable facilities which the house of Powers
Bros. possess for presenting, a. they do At all
seasons, the choicest, completest and lowest
priced stock of goods to their retail trade.
Why do they guarantee to sell all goods at East
ern prices, and why do they sell many goods at
much lower prices than can be bought else
where? Because they can carry double the
stock of any other retail house in the city,
every line full and complete. making special
ty of Dress Goods, Hosiery, Linens, etc. Be-
cause they have Wholesale Department., oc-
cupying the three upper foors OF their extern
sive warehouse, firm which the retail stock is
daily repienished. Because their clerks are
polite, attentive and trustworthy, and because
they make it directly to the interest of their
patrons TO purchase from them. Their Fall
Stock is now complete. and yon will save mon

THE STATES THAT WILL SETTLE 1T.
The Fate of the Nation In the Hands Of Netc
York. Netr .Terseu and Connecticut.

The Fate of the Nation In the Hands Of Ne,o
York, Neto Jersey and Connecticut.
In recent visit to the Democratic COM
mittee rooms In New York Gen. William B.
franklin, an accurate political observer as
well as distinguished soldier, said this in re-
gard to his state Connecticut:
"The enthusiasm for Hancock in that
State has not been equalled in my experience.
A large majority of those who served in the
army are with us, and forming themselves
into veteran organizations, while the civilian
clubs are equally active. As an indication
which fell under my observation the other
day, one Of the regularly enrolled militia
companies Of the State which was encamped
ct Mantle, was polled as to choice for Presi-
dent. Out of sixty present, forty nine de-
clared their intention of voting for Han
cock.'
In this connection Republican lightning
calculators are referred to the following
figures and facts presented by the New York
San:
"The electoral votes of New York, New
Jersey and Connecticut will determine the
result OF the election. It would be difficult
to name three States whose people are moro
Industrious, intelligent, thoughtful and patri-
otto than theirs.
"Theae States send A members to the
House of Representatives, and they cast so
electoral votes. With acceptable candidates
on both sides, and on fair trial Of strength
between the two parties, all three States
went for Mr.. Tilden In the spirited canvass
of 1876 by an aggregate majority Of $4,000.
It will be seen that this is an average major
ity of more than 200 for each Congression-
al district, and only little less than that Of
each Presidential elector.
"With such popular Democratic candi
date as Winfield s. Hancock, and such q
tainted Republican candidate as James A.
Garfield. is there any good reason for sup
posing that the result in these three States
this fall will not be repetition of that of
four years ego? II any Of our esteemed Re-
publican contemporaries are disposed TO an
swer this question in the affirmative will
they explain the grounds on which they base
their opinion?''

driven in disorderly retreat from the posi-
ton they had occupied, and pursued fer If
Teen miles, losing nearly all their artillery
and munitions of war, nearly thousand
men slain and large number taken prison
srs. The defeat was most disastrous one,
and In view of its completeness the British
papers are perhaps excusable for claiming
that it probably ends the war.
But the reouperative power of the Afghan
people is not TO be despised. In 1912 they
suffered almost as disastrous losses % they
did last week, yet they succeeded eventual
ly in driving the British from
their country. The capture of Cabul
little over year ago was thought to be an
end to their resistance, yet within few days
the British force in the territory was wholly
exterminated. The invasion was renewed
aud again the capital fell into the hands of
the sggressors, and peace was patched up
which was for time supposed to be final.
Again the hill tribes descended and an army
of nearly three Thousand men was wiped
from existence. Returning to the attack the
British have again conquered. Whether the
results of this victory shall be the same as
those that preceded it remains to be seen. It
is not probable, however, that a liberty. loving
people such as these savages will permit the
occupation of their country by foreign
power without at least one more effort to
defend their independence. II the struggle
is long continued the stronger power of the
two will no doubt prove victorious, and the
Afghans will be completely subjugated, but
for many years the country will be turbulent,
given to rebellion, and neoessitate the main
tenance of q large army Of occupation. The
prospect is not aattering to the British peo-
pie, who will be heavily burdened for years
to sustain policy that is likely to prove OF
little benefit to the nation either at present
or In the immediate future.
