THE BIERMANN WAVE,
Cheering Reports From AL Quarters-The
Tide Which Is Sweeping Hin ON to VIC
fOry.
Il SicE Case.


Special Correspondence to the Pittsburg Post.
ST. PAUL, Oct. 16.-Minnesota has been
about as reliably Republican as Iowa, al
though majorities have not been so large.
The prime cause is owing to that party
having proclaimed from every hill top and
down through the valleys its fidelity and
love for the Scandinavian race which to
almost a man goes the Republican ticket
right or wrong. An additional incentive
has been the nomination of some one of
the state officers from either the Sweae or
Norwegian people, and as this has
been followed even to con-
gressmen the effect on the masses is
shown to have been good seed and very
adroitly sown of late years by the Repub-
lican party. These people hold the bal
ance of power, and without them the Re-
publican party in Minnesota would have a
useless contest with the Democratic forces
who are (barring the scandinavian ele-
ment to day in good majority.
AS soon as Scandlnavians immigratein to
the state they are taken in charge by lead
ing men selected for their seductive quail
ifcations, and are taught by these agents,
in the only language they know, that to
vote Democratic ticket means a denial
of their home taught principles and inf
deity to their race. So they are born
anew and naturalized Republican Soandi-
navians. Several counties are almost en-
tirely Scandinav1ans, who from year to
year select none but their own people to
office.
have told how sick case we have, and
what we have to overcome. Can we do it !?
dare presume to question large Repub-
lican majority, and if the signs Of the COM
ing struggle are not misleading I would
venture an opinion that the head of the
Democratic State ticket will pull through.
do not base my calculations on his
nationality (he being Of Scandinavian
| not receive considerably number of his
own countrymen's votes. He is man gen
orally popular with the masses of both par
ties, and if elected, would make very &C
ceptable governor. In his contest for
congressional honors in his own district,
| whica is largely Republican, his opponent
| only made il by few hundreds instead OF
| thousands. and if Mr.. Biermann can do as
we'll throughout the state, as in the case 1
have named, he will be the next governor
| of Minnesota. The present governor will
| have all he can do to poll his full party
| vote, and this he will not get as matters
| now look. He has made very fair
governor and little can be said against
his administration. Ee has been ''al
| things to all men"--namby- PANTY and
honey to Democrats and Republicans
! alike-hence not man of iron Or OF strong
loves or hates, but a goodey- goodey mar
with smile childlike and bland.
How carefully the Republican party
steer as to the prohibition question. Some
attacks were made against the Democratic
nominee as to his ''iove for beer" but the
news from Ohio has put a quietus most
efectually upon that, and the Republicans
move On full of fear lest by some upguard
| ed word they lose the state. r. G. NJ.

CORPORATE CROOKEDNESS.

The Citizens o Z st. Louis Organize to Rid
The City of tho Gang of Corrupt Officials
Who Have Disgraced 1T.
: ST. Louis. Oct. 23.-The most promi-
nent citizens OF st. Louis, irrespective of
party, met in secret session last night at
the st. Louis club, and Law and Order
League was then organized on the plan of
the Philadelphia Citizens Committee of
One Hundred. Officers we're elected az
follows: President, Girard B. Allen; vice
president, Carlos s. Greedy; executive
committee, E. o. Stanard, John A Noble,
Edward Wilkinson. James J. Lyndley, w,
II. Lee, Jas. o. Broadhead and Ethan A.
Hitchcock. An emergency fund of $4,000
was raised and the ANIMAL assessment of
the league was fixed at $25. The object OF
The league is to secure good local govern
ment, fight corruption and political rings
and especially the gambling ring. This
action of the citizens was the result of the
exposures by the Post-Dispatch in publish
ing the testimony taken before the late
grand jury in relation to the corrupt po
litico-gambling ring.

Supporting Hermann.

To the Editor OF the Globe:
The many rumors current that Mr..
Biermann, the Democratic candidate for
governor, is doing some work in the direc-
ton Of an election is no longer a doubt,
though Minnesota is a formidable Repub-
lican state. Mr. Biermann is gentleman
beyond question, and man of competent
business ability, which is prominent OBJ
ject in the eye of his many Scandinavian
kiDsmen.
A trip through the counties of Wilkin,
Grant and Kandiyohi, where Mr.. Biermann
has acquainted himself, mere than an
ordinary majority have conceded the fact
that he is worthy of their support, not
merely on account of national proclivities,
but purely az a matter of political prin-
ciples and integrity.
When Mr.. Biermann's nomination took
place the p. p. sarcasticaliy announced
that the funeral had been accepted by the
candidate, which was considered only e.
matter of slight Importance. The late
Democratic victory in Ohio is an event
quite in accordance with many Republi-
can voters throughout the state, which as
rule, has very favorable affect upon
Democratic gains. OBSERVER.

Dedicatto,s Of a CatAotic church.

kNOAAOoHcAAeAOiOO
MANKAro, Oct. 22.--The new Catholic
church at the villege of Wells,
Faribault county, just completed
by Father Venn, was dedicated on Sun
day, special train conveying an excur
sion party from Mankato, and intermediate
points, to witness the ceremonies. The
building is 80 by ~ feet, built of frame,
Gothic style, and presents neat and COM
Portable appearance.
The dedicatory services were conducted
by Bishop Ireland, and were those peculiar
to the church. The bishop delivered g
powerful sermon, reviewing the history
and origin of the Catholic church. He
spoke with his accustomed earnestpess,
and yet in such simple language that it
reached the comprehension of his large
audience. While claiming and proving
that the Catholic church is the same as es-
tabiished by Christ, the various popes
and bishops succeeding one another from
that time to the present, being the links
that connect and bind the past with the
present, he declared that merely belief
in the Catholic religion WAS not sufficient.
That God demanded purity of heart and
life from each and all, ana that prayer
full, earnest and humble life was essential
to insure a life of future happiness.
The bishop was assisted by Fathers Venn,
Lete and Ligg. Father Venn and Mr.. Glenn
Schrueder of Mankato assisted in the sing
ing, and rendered some excellent music,
several solos by each of the parties being
especially mplimented.
The pastor, Father Venn, has built about
thirty Catholic churches in various parts
of the state, having devoted nearly quar-
ter. of century to frontier life, and many
of them are very fine eeifces. Having
completed churches at Albert Lea, Blue
Earth City, Mapleton, Wells, etc., in this
immediate vicinity, it is probable that his
energies will be devoted to the great work
of building new and elegant church at
Fairmont. Those who know his indomi-
table perseverance are assured of his sue
cess when he undertakes it.

CLEVELAND, Oct. 23.-To-day' s sensation
in business circles is the failure of John
B. Glidden, secretary of the Republic lion

court claims against him for upwards of
$111,o00. on which he confessed judy
ment. As security the company holds his
stock at market value, which is about q
quarter of million of dollars, but it is
understood considerable Of this is pledged
for other debts, and questions of priority of
claim are likely to arise. Mr.. Glidden
stated this morning to the
Associated Press reporter that his fail
ure is solely attributed to shriRkage values
in legitimate iron business. His indebted
