TIE CONTEST DECIDED.


The celebrated contest in the Fifth Min
nesota district was practically terminated
yesterday by the canvass at Brainerd of
the counties of Crow Wing, Cass and Itas
ca. These are the counties that
the Gilman -Gordon-Nelson pack of
scoundrels have been bowling about.
Their bowls were simply the pangs
of guilty conscience, as they feared
that their own scoundrelly tactics in the
Norwegian counties, would be applied in
the territory where Mr.. Kindred's friends
were almost unanimous.
In this matter the gang of scoundrels
were mistaken. Mr.. Kindred can afford to
be beaten, but he cannot afford to descend
to the Gilman Gordon Nelson level. There
has been an attempt on the part of Mr..
Kindred's friends to poll square and
honest vote and win an honorable
victory, but with such an
infamous gang as supported MIR. Nelson.
| the contest for an honest man was unequal
It was only necessary for the pine ring
thieves to know to what depth Of rascality
they must descend in order to come UP
smiling with the dirty work well done.
The mooted counties are given in detail
in our telegraph report and the GLOBE ia
BILE for the district, with nearly every
county official gives son the face of the re
turns:'' Nelson, 16,075; Kindred, 1857
Barnum, GLIB. 4 plurality for Nelson Of
1858.
That there is abundant ground for over
throwing this Nelson plurality Oh accoun
of most stupendous fraudsis beyond ques
lion, and Mr.. Kindred owes it to the distric
and to his personal vindication, to see tina
the methods Of the Nelson campaign ar
made public by a congressional investiga
ton.
No candidate for public Office wa
ever more basely villifed than Mr.. Kin
dred has been and in spite OF that, if
fair vote could havebeen had he would hay
been elected. His contest was with pac
of thieves and liars, who used the boot
already secured to make sure of more. .
campaign against such a crowd was the IN
equal contest of a single man against
band of highwaymen.

This fellow who dubs himself "Gen.'

money therefor-sixteen dollars per acre.

{. G.. INGERsOLL |

Col. R. G.. INGERsoLL has made
the suggestion that Gen. W. T.
Sherman is the most available man the
Republicans can nominate for president in
1884. It might almost be supposed this
was intended by the witty Ingersoll to be
understood in the Pickwickian sense, but
the frisky general of the army receives it
with JUNCTION, saying, as it were, 'Lo, I am
the man. But brother John, the
senator from Ohio, takes it in earnest, too,
and refuses to talk or express any opinion
concerning political matters, past, present
or future. I'll just now difficult to tell
who is the most available man the Repub-
licans have among them, but to adopt In
gersoll's suggestion would be to invite de-
feat. Possibly the Republicans are in a
frame of mind to accept defeat. If so,
one of the Sherman family will answer
for the mutton very satisfactorily.

communications are being already re-

states pledging the proper sum, and sim
liar responses are expected soon from the
remainder of the states. In recognition
of this fund the Knights Templar have

ing. Four precincts which registered 116,
were not heard from. Before the canvass
began, Vanseile protested against
the Votes for Cane being
counted, because the tickets contained
his name for a vacancy in the Forty
seventh congress, making the ticket so
large it could be distinguished through
the envelope from the Gentle ticket, and
because Cane is a polygamist. The COM
mission overruled the protest on the ground
that the tickets were not in violation of
the law of the territory or order of the
commission, and that it is not specifically
charged and proved that Cane is actually
a polygamist. Before the certificate was
issued Vanseile protested against, its issue
on the ground that by the ordinance act
the secretary must canvass the votes for
delegates and the governor issue the certi-
fcate, and that the returns were incom-
plete. Overruled by the commission and
