So much has been said about the
adverse attitude of the German
Republicans Of New York towards
Gen. Grant, that many have been
led to to believe that they would

The New York Tribune has inter.
viewed the Secretary of the Ger

Of which Morris Friedsam is pres
ident, as to the sentiments of the
Germans on the proposed nomina-
ton Of General Grant, and that
gentleman said: Es.There is great
mistake made as to the position OF
the Germans in this matter. We
are in favor Of the Republican
nominee, whoever he. may be.
Some Of us do not like too much of
the military spirit in Gen. Grant 8
administration, but we would sup
port him heartily if nominated.
We are not all in favor of a third
term either, but we wish to do
whatever will benefit the party.
There is one man whom we would
all like to see nominated very much,
and that is Elihu Washburne. We
think, too, there is much chance o.
his receiving the nomination ii

withdrawn when the Convention

Consequences of Maj. Straits Defeat

The Washington correspondent
of the St. Paul Dispatch in speak
ing Of the Donnelly- Washburn
contest writes as follows:
I am an advocate of boiling
whenever a party puts an unworthy
man in nomination. For six years
Major Strait served his party and
district with growing acceptability
and efficiency, SO those who slew
him Sin the house Of his friends
are traitors to their party, who
should never be pardoned. IF the
Democratic House Of Representa-
tives shall seat Donnelly and SO
consummate this fraud upon the
suffrage and popular rights, not SO
much Donnelly. as the boilers Of
Goodhue and Kandiyohi, will be to
blame. The former has made an
open, even if audacious, fight, the
latter, as snakes in the grass bite at
the heels of their friends. IF Strait
had been reelected Washburn' S
seat would never have been attack
ed. Donnelly never had any real
show Of success, except that which
arose from the necessities Of the
Democratic party. The Presiden-
tial election may be thrown into
the house, and Donnelly's vote
will fasten upon this country the
Democratic rule. There are hun.
.dreds ofScandin ayian patriot graves

at an informal gathering Of repre-.

serious proposition, acceded to by

Of his earnest endeavors to secure
relief from the action of the drive

Germs vast numbers of people not
only in Minnesota, but through.
