Branded as a Campaign lie.

The card below from ex-Mayor Ames ex-
plains itself. In addition it may be of inter-
est to the Democracy of the Fourth ward to
explain that Mr.. Wilson declines to enter the
field as a candidate for the nomination in
opposition to Aid. Morse.
EDITOR GLoBE-A report is being vigor-
ousiy circulated that l am interested in

CURRENT COMMENT.

A few nights ago quite a number of
coopers and laborers of the Sixth ward had
gathered together and were relating remi-
niscences of old times. An old resident
stated that in the earlier days of st. Anthony
gentleman of cold and pompous proclivi-
ties had been placed in nomination for
mayor. The "boys" were not disposed to
tackle kindly to his candidacy, and as joke
got up an opposition ticket with the name of
a colored barber at the head. The result
was to provoke an Unreasonable amount of
fun and to come mighty near electing the
colored man to the office. ''I'll tell you what
We'll do, boys" suggested cooper; swell
nominate deaf and dumb cooper for alder
man from this ward and pledge him the sup
port of the coopers. We are pretty strong
and can poll big vote. A deaf and dumb
cooper has certain virtues not possessed by
the other candidates. He wont promise
anything he wont fulfill, and he wont listen
to plots of any kind. Hurrah for the deaf
and dumb alderman" The proposition
met with the hearty approval of all present
and the tickets are TO be printed with the
name Of deaf mute on it for alderman.

Commissioner Gregory of the civil service
made fine picture yesterday morning,
sharply defined against the blackboards OF
Curtiss hall, which were covered with pious
poetry. He came over from st. Paul to put
twenty-three aspiring souls through the tolls
of mental examination to ascertain their
fitness to serve Uncle Sam. Of these twenty
three there was one sweet-faced maiden who
had clerkship in her bright brown eye, and
while the result is not known, it is safe to
say her examination was as good as the best,
for the education Of the average Minneapo-
lis maiden is proverbial. At any rate, she
neither chewed gum nor her pencil. and did
not knit her brows and nervously work her
fingers. The questions were not at all diff
cult, and might have been answered by any
high school pupil.
