MCNAIR SAYS BE WON'T.

lie DOHE Woft to Take the GubernatoriGL
CI:tfiF, it Seems, aud Declines the Nomi-
nation.
Last evening Hon. W. NJ. Campbell, of
Litchtield, and Mayor Ames received W.
w. McNair's formal declination of the
nomination at the head of the Democratic
state ticket so unanimously rendered him
by the state convention on
the second instant. It was a
surprise, and also complete surprise to
the Hennepin delegation, as the GLOBE
readers doubtless understand. 1t was the
expressed opinion of the best informed
Democrats that the Office was in the grasp
of the regular nominee of the convention.
The Republicans are disafected and di-
vided into factions, each of which is striv-
ing to choke the other out. Added to this
came the more important feature of the
campaignnamely the great uDpopularity of
theRepublican nominees, The latter ticket
is beaded by mani whom the Minneapolis
papers rate below mediocre in every sense,
and the citizens of Henncpin are thorough
ly tired of the present administration, and
desire radical change,
The following is the letter of declara-
tion:
MINNEAPoLIs, Mimi, Aug. 6, 1888.
Hon. VIM. Campbell, DR.. A. A. Ames, Hon.
| Il. A. Jone3.--Committee.
CENTLEMEN:sI am amply gratefulfor the high
| ] " or conferred upon me by the Democratic
| party of our state in naming me at the recent
convention as their candidate for governor to be
| supported at the next election. That this dis.
tinction was neither sought nor dc2ired by me is
| a matter generally known, and well
| known to many delegates in that
| convention, some of whom in com
| pliance with my previous earnest request, in
| formed the convention that l could not accept
the nomination, if tandered, and such is yet
| after careful consideration CT the matter, my
| decision. The reasons which influence me are
| of private Character, among others involving
| my absence from the st?te at the me of tht
| election which reason alone, in my opirion
| precludes me from accepting the proffered lead
| ership. / therefore cannot accept this nomina
| ton, and ask you to inform the state centre
| committee, when it shall have been constituted
| aud named, of this my decision.
Thanking you, gentlemen, for your friendly
interest and courtesy in this matter, remain
yours very respectfully, W. w. MoNlIR.
To GLOBE representative Mr.. McNail
said last night, "My reasons for declining
the nomination are all included in my lei
ter to Mr.. Campbell and Mayor Ames."
He was asked respecting the wide
spread report that he had encouraged tn,
nomination when in st. Paul OF
the day of the Democratic nomination
He replied that he never had given an!
man reason to believe that he would &C
Foept the nomination if it were rendered
him, and concluded by adding, u should
like to see the man who says / did"
| A large number of Democrats were me
during the evening, and all teemed thu
derstruck, so 10 speak, someIsuggested or
man and some another, the name of Hon
d. Buck, of Blue Earth, being prominent
among the rest, as desirable candidates
but all agree that the state central com
mittee is competent to select satisfacto
ry and strong candidate.
