City Council Proceedings Feeling Since
the Election.
Hon. ID. M. Sabin Arrives Home-Boats
For the Missouri River.
After the Battle.

There was sigh of relief among the vot-
ers yesterday after the efforts of the previous
day in endeavoring to elect their respective
candidates. Some, however, had very larger
heads and decidedly heavy ones, as they had
been celebrating the victory, and were out
with the boys. Judge Murdoch is not in the
least elated over his election, but keeps on
in the even tenor of his way. Mr. Mathews
takes his defeat philosophically, and says he
is pleased over the election of his friend,
Judge Murdoch. His friends would not al
low him to withdraw from the race. A lesson
has been given, and the voters will not go in
for third term again. There have been
wild rumors of contemplated changes during
the day, but Mayor Murdoch is not the kind
OF man to make changes except for
cause. A few changes will be made
undoubtedly, but they will not amount to
much. There have been several canards
going the rounds, and some are highly
elated over what they expect is in store for
them. Alderman-elect Kerr feels somewhat
elated over his vote, and it shows that, al
though he is young man, he has the conf
dence of large majority of his ward. There
were no party lines in the contest, as both
Republicans and Democrats were found vot-
ing on both sides. The city has a good
council. Every member has considerable at
stake in the city. They will require to do
much for the benefit of the city, as most i'm
portant matters will be brought before them,
involving large OUTLAWS of money, which
they will no doubt thoroughly investigate.

Stanford Newell - Edmund Rice is the

Volkszeitung: Under such fatherly adj
mlnistration as Edmund Rice gave us and
will give us again, st. Paul must prosper.
Dispatch: The Democratic convention to-
uay probably made the strongest nomina-
ton possible, after the positive refusal of
robert Smith to be candidate. Edmund
Rice is too well known and too highly re-
spected in this community to make an at
tempt at disagreement feasible.
Volkszeitung: The Democracy of st. Paul
may congratulate itself. Never before in st.
Paul was ticket put forth which found such
hearty approval in all quarters, as that which
the Democratic convention nominated to-
day. Liberal ideas characterize its members
from top to bottom. Every single candidate

A DULLDAY IN THE POLICE COURT.
The Result Of the Primaries and Convention
Has Disheartening Effect on
Evil Doprs

The bull pen was almost deserted yester-
day, the only offenders being couple of
petty larceny buns, disorderly case and
two nuisances. The latter were dismissed
as was the case of Fl. Charpenter, charged
with abusive language.
John Mcdonald was then arraigned on the
charge of stealing wood and the case pre-
sented some very sad features. The accused
is worthless widower with four small chill
dren, and as he has not worked all winter
they exc out miserable existence, and
are on the verge of starvation.
The prisoner was caught stealing wood from
Smiths yard, in the Sixth ward, and, after
hearing the testimony, the court discharged
him for the sake of his children. He prom
ised to go to work.
John Wood, workhouse bum, was re-
leased from the bastile yesterday, and, after
walking into town, he nailed pair Of shoes
from a cobbler on Washington street. He is
a cunning, sharp-witted rogue, with head
as smooth as billiard ball, and when ar
raigned he pleaded guilty and asked to be let
down light He was sentenced to thirty
days, and expressed thanks for the light
judgment.

A CELESTIAL ACCESSION.
A Chinese Laundryman Takes the Oath
Fealty to the United States.

Chinese Laundryman Takes the Oath OF
Fealty to the United States.
Yesterday marked something of an event
in the way of an accession to our citizenship.
1t is well known with what tenacity China
men cling to their ancient customs and how
reluctant they have ever been to adopt any
modern innovations. For a China
man to forswear allegiance to
his government and adopt a
new county means more of sacrifice than
to almost any other nationality; because for
SO doing they are looked upon by their people
as outcasts. A great part of this feeling has
been generated, or certainly it has been
siren thened, by the prejudice which the
Celestials have found existed against them in
other nations. While there have been China
men naturalized in America, the number
has been exceedingly small, and the papers
of citizenship taken out yesterday by All
Wah is believed to be the first instance of the
kind in this section Of the country. All Wah
is the son of clothing merchant,
was born in Hong Kong, China,
in 1868, emigrated to San Francisco
four years ago, being employed in the China
and tea store of his brother in that city as a
bookkeeper. Two years ago he came to st.
Paul and purchased laundry on Wabasha
street, but devoted his own time to gaining
knowledge of English under the guidance
OF the members of the Y. M. c. A. He is
intelligent, and while not yet fluent, can be
readily understood. This spring his laundry
will be closed, and he will hereafter devote
his whole time to the mastery of our difficult
tongue.
He says there are number of his race in
the city who will doubtless follow his exam
pie ere long.

returned Yesterday afternoon after the con-
vention adjourned. The committee ap-
pointed by the chairman of the convention
to apprise him Of their action. and a GLoBE
reporter, were at the train to receive
him. As he alighted, Col. Allen
and Hon. P. H. Kelly grasped him
by either arm and started up the street with
him to the Merchants hotel. II. H. Fuller,
the chairman of the committee, aud AID
0'Conuor metamorphosed themselves into
porters and followed with the candidates
baggage. Mr.. Rice, himself, was surprised
when he heard OF the action of the conveu-
ton and st first shook his head emphaticaily
But his two companions are famous for their
winning ways aud before they had got With
him to the hotel, prevailed on him
to accept. They steered him
into the office at the left aud rear Of the hotel
counter, and then Mr.. Kelly made few re-
marks. He informed Mr.. Rice that those
who met him were committee delegated TO
inform him that he had the unanimous nom
ination of the party for mayors nomiua-
ton OF which any man might be proud, COM
ing as il did without solicitation. The posi-
ton had sought the man. 1--WE kuow,n said
Mr.. Kelly, ''how you led us to victory once
and how you viii do 1t again. You are the
unanimous choice Of your friends and fell

In reply, Mr.. Rice spoke substantially as
follows:

for the office, but also one who shall add
thereto personal popularity and personal
prestige.
Such a candidate is the Hon. Edmund
Rice, long an honored citizen of our state and
city. How well he bore himself in the Office
of mayor when he was formerly invested with
its prerogatives the unanimous voice of our
people will testify and the record of munich
pal prosperity will abundantly prove. We
need not inquire as to the probability of the
election of Mr.. Rice if nominated. Once
nominated, his election is assured. There
fore, in the fullest confidence that success
waits upon the choice of Mr.. Rice, I place
him in nomination before this convention.
The nomination was seconded by Edward
Schumacher and Mr.. FL. II. Fuller moved to
make it unanimous.
The convention objected to this and Mr..
Patrick Egan nominated the Hon. G. D.
O'Brien
A motion was made to take the sense of
the convention by a viva voce vote, which
was carried.

The nominations of the city convention
yesterday, especially that for mayor, were
received with universal and hearty approba-
ton not only by the Democrats but also on
the part of the Republicans. This fact may
be taken as a vindication of the action OF
the city committee in calling the convention
early; for had Mr.. Rice been home and
known that his name was mentioned IN this
connection, he assures US positively that he
would have declined to be candidate be-
fore the convention.
Turner hall was cold and cherries yester-
day morning when the convention assembled
therein, and although the members
kept on their overcoats and some CT them
their hats: many were fain to lash their arms
vigorously against their sides to keep the
blood from freezing in their veins. "ltl
be hot enough before we get away was the
common remark made at the beginning, but
the event failed to verify the prediction, for
never did convention exhibit more har-
mony and unity of purpose if not of feeling,
From the time when the temporary chairman
took his seat until the final adjournment,
there was not bit Of temper shown. The
only contest was as to the nomination for
mayor. It was very one-sided, and the
weaker party were apparently very willing to
side with the majority and make it unani-
