THE Democrats acted wisely yesterday in
their convention. The uproar and discord
which was predicted, and which the Pillsbury
strikers endeavored their utmost to bring
about, did not occur. 1t was, in fact, one Of
the most orderly conventions ever held in
the city. This is truly amazing when all
the phases of the situation are given consid-
Grafton. a concerted movement to destroy
the Democratic party had been concocted-
and it. was planned by the Republicans.
The political feeling was at fever height.
Some of the preliminaries had been fraudu-
lent and irregular, and many good Demo
Gratis were justly indignant, but when the
whole matter was fully canvassed by Hon.
Frank L. Morse and Hon. Matthew
Walsh who were unpledged, I'M
prejudiced and impartial, William
McArdle ian Ames delegate) and
Jacob Becker "a Glenn delegate), and every
fact obtainable weighed; it was found
that it had been a case of "dia-
mond cut diamond" and they determined
that the delegates chosen at the first caucuses
were entitled to seats, with the exception OF
the two delegates from the Eighth ward That
settled the whole matter and those who felt
sore withdrew.

MAYOR AMES.

Yesterday was an eyentful day in the his
tory of Minneapolis. The regular Demo-
cratic city convention was held in Turner
hall, which was packed to standing room by
delegates and interested citizens. A rumpus
was expected, but happily no rumpus occur
red. Throughout it was one of the most
orderly conventions ever held in the city. 1t
was presided over by a gentleman of good
Judgment and every act of the assemblage
was not without discretion, and the result
was satisfactory to those who have the success
of the party at heart.
Col. Glenn called the convention to order,
and announced that no delegates from wards
which had sent contesting delegations should
be entertained by the temporary organization.
To this proposition there was
NO OPPOSITION.
Scion Armstrong was chosen chairman.
He was greeted with applause and thanked
the convention for the honor in neat but
short address.
A R. Brandt was then elected secretary.
F. L. Morse moved that committee of
five on credentials be appointed by the chair.
Carried.
The chairman then appointed the following
as such committee:
Frank Morse, VIM. McArdle, Jacob Becker,
Matt Walsh, and A. j. Nuremberg, these be-
ing selected from the five wards in which
there was no contesting delegation.
Mr.. Walsh announced that the s. xth ward
delegation had been empowered at the
caucus to fill vacancies if any occurred.
A recess of ten minutes was taken for the
committee to report.
After waiting for half hour however, for
the report it was announced that another
hour would be required. An adjournment
was then had until l o'clock. The stick was
in deciding as to which of the delegations
were entitled to seats-the first set elected
in pursuance to the caucus calls, or those
chosen at the second sets of caucuses
held. Oh

THERE is rift in the clouds and the sun
is pouring its bright, cheerful beams upon the
Democratic party in Minneapolis. Had the
boilers been pleased to place in nomination
Democrat yesterday, there would have been
no hope for the success of the party at the
polls, but when few Democrats say to the
party, 'eat crow; vote for Republican who
said in his speech of acceptance, 4 accept
the nomination as Republican," they will
find that it is such noisome dose that it
will be rejected absolutely and entirely by
every true Democrat.

OUR STATE EXCHANGES.

A number of Kansas papers ar,
asking an exchange with the Daily
EAGLE. We must say that it is ouI
desire to send the Daily to all the
strictly Southwestern Kansas papers
to the papers that represent the
same material and commercial interests
that the EAGLE aims to stand by.
But to papers at a distance, which
have no interest in the section
drained and watered by the
Nile of America the EAGLE would be
of little interest, and as daily con-
tanning the latest news, worthless. 1t
is in sorrow we say it, but it is the
truth that the EAGLES editorials and
original matter are neither so brilliant,
cute or profound as to render it ne
cessity to editors whose papers are
published hundreds of miles away
from Wichita.
