COME FROh CASTLES AP-
POINTMENTS.

GrowI From a Winona Republican and
Minneapolis Endorsement.

To the Editor of the Globe.
The notoriety given me in this cam
paign l think hardly deserve for 1 have
not sought it nor covet it; but singled out
as The target for the Imperative abuse of
Il. A. Castle, Hnbbard's oil inspector, 1
may properly ask permission to state in
the GLOBE some facts bearing upon this
uuseemly controversy. l am charged
with political treachery by 81. A. Castle,
who since he put his foot on Minnesota
soil has been in every organized bolt oc-
curing within the Republican party;
Who is H. A. Castle? He is the political
Judas who cried down with the caucus"
when William Window was the fairly
nominated candidate of his party for
United States senator. He advised Re-
publican members to "bolt" Windom,ssde-
claring that nominations were not bind
ing upon the party. And now when
dose of mis- own physic is administered to
the blatherskite, how he does whoop Ter
up for the party and for the sacredness of
nominations. That he drew money from
the "whisky ring" to defeat Window, his
own fred nose" and disgusting record
fully attest; AMI it is one of the wonders
of our times, that this false renegade and
apostate was appointed oil inspector of
Minnesota, an appointment, though be-
slowed in sheer charity, which is q
damned spot" in the administra-
| ton that made 1t. Who is h.
A. Castle? Let US see. Two
years ago, this vile wretch stamefully
| assaulted Capt. W. w. Braden, our hon
ored stale auditor, and the Republican
county convention of Fillmore, con-
demned the ''dead beat in the following
graphic manner:
ResOlred, That we condemn Il. A. Castle for
his wanton and shameless attack upon Capt.
W. w. Braden, our honored State auditor, and
we call upon Republicans in this county to stop
the few copies of his vile sheet th.t circulate
| therein.
| The above resolution was drawn by
Prof. John Brady, and introduced by
Capt. B. A. Manor, of Lanesboro, and
passed unanimously. That resolution ex-
pressed the opinion Of Fillmore county
Republicans concerning FL. A. Castle and
his "smut-mill Sheet" andi in the face
and eyes of this resolution, he was APP
pointed oil inspector. Do you wonder
why the Republicans down here kick
And as he set the example of boiling Win
dom, is not "sauce for the goose, sauce
for the gander?" Why should Republi-
cans vote for Hubbard and ''bolt" Window
We're not both fairly nominated? Should
Hubbard be sustaiaed because he appoint
ed II. A. Castle oil inspector? The
| 'scratcher'' is abroad. Dom you forget it.
"Whisperings" and pap suckers, do not
run the Republicans of Minnesota, any
more than they do the Republicans of
New York. But Castle says he has never
lost an opportunity to expose me. Well,
he has Exposed" Van Leuvens by wri-
ting him to send up to mis- sheet "news,"
and "crop reports" which have repeat
eddy done. This is the effectual way In
which he has Exposed" me, and now defy
him. part company with him, as the
traveller does with the beligerent skunk.
His abuse is far better than his praise.
He'll hear from Fillmore in our own good
time. put it squarely that if Governor
Hubbard thinks 81. A Castle is any help to
him in this fight trot him out. By all means
keep his "mouth wagging." WINDOWS
friends admire it. 1t is conducive to
party success to have just such thing as
Castle is In the store front of the battle"
He'll make votes for Hubbard. By the
way, is not it about time for Hubbard to
write another ''letter' to the dirty dog"
| to close his mouth"
