Nelson's Wisconsin Record.


There is deep and growing interest
felt and manifested by very many of the
good people of the Fifth congressional dis
trict of Minnesota, to know something Of
the former life and operations of the man
who calls himself Knute Nelson and who
so unwarrantedly bolted the Republican
convention at Detroit where Mr.. Kindred
was nominated. His career for the last
ten or twelve years in Minnesota is famil-
lar to all and needs no ref
ference at this time except to say that such
as it has been, was clearly foreshadowed
by his early life and career in Wisconsin.
An infdel of the most pronounced charac-
ter his infidelity there, as here, extended to
his friends and associates, social and polit-
ical. Having no fear or regard for the
-Christian's God,he seems to have had'no re-
gard for nor anxiety to possess any of the
Christian virtues, even such as are regard
ed as the Indispensable attributes of gen
tleman and a good citizen. The GLOBE has
from time to time been informed OF
the perfdious nature and Infamous con-
duct of this man while resident of Dane
county, Wisconsin, and has taken pains to
verify such statements. It has in its pos
session interviews with large number of
the best and most reliable citizens of Dane
county, Wis, which, if published as given
would cause every decent man to revolt
from the support of so unworthy char.
acter. The GLOBE has no personal animos-
ity against Mr.. Knute Nelson. AS Q private
citizen it has nothing to do with him, leav-
ing him to the care of
his mora immediate neighbors.
But as a candidate under any guizs for
congressional honors, as an illigitimate
aspirant for SO high and important a trust
as an election 10 congress implies, a trust
than which none on Garth is more sacred
it has {. duty to society to perform which
must not for a moment be disregarded
More. As the we'll known and avowei
instrument and expondent of the Mime
apoIis Pine Land Ring, which has for 81
many years plundered the public domain il
northern Minnesota and who swoolen anl
enriched by their ILL gotten gains, are nov
contemplating the most gigantic steal o
modern public plundering, in which MI
Knute Nelson is invited to join, (Which in
vitation it is needless to remark he ha
greedily accepted.) As the tool and candi
date of that gang of buccaneers, we sa,
we have not only right but duty to per
form in exposing the true character o
this their willing serf- and worthy coad
jutor.
THE PINE LAND RING.
No country, nation or people were eve
cursed with such a disreputable gang
as this one which has such an internal gri]
on the politics of Minnesota. Rich il
plunder they are utterly without scruple il
their methods. Search history, moderl
and ancient, over and over and no parable
can be found to them. The rebel privat
GERS on the high seas,the old buccaneers O
the Spanish Main, the more modern Dicl
Turpins, and our own American James ant
Younger train and bank robbers. are en-
tirely thrown into the shade by this pilfer
ing, plundering, thieving crew of pine lani
sharks.
Beside them the Vandal borders tina
swept down from the mountains and de
