Slate Makers ssreathe Again.

The ''back-Oflice" slate makers again re
i0ice. They had fixed upon Maj. Hetfel-
finger as their choice for mayor, and just
as that conclusion had been amicably ar
rived at. the slate makers were dismayed
by the announcement that Mayor Pillsbury
had been induced TO again enter the lists
But the announcement was of the grape
vine telegraph order, and the era pevine.
while it not infreQuently reveals ST artling
truths, is sometimes in error, and the TumOr
that Mayor Pillsbury had reconsidered his
defamation was one Of the sometimes.
\ GLOBE reporter was most courte0usly re-
ceiyed by his honor the mayor yesterday,
and given one of the large comfortable
Office chairs.
''Rumor has it, Mr.. Mayor, that you have
been INDUCED TO reconsider your declinatiOn
and Chat you will accept a nomination should
il be unanimously rendered. Is there any
thing in it," queried the reporter.
Nothing whatever" replied his honor with
emphasis II notice that good deal is
being said but there is no ground for It,"
Then you have held no conference with
any of the Republicans who are SO anxious to
keep you in Official harness"
There has been no conference, and don't
know as any has been contemplated. l will
simply assure you that my first defamation
was final. / am not a candidate for mayor,
and cannot conceive any combination of cir
cumstances which could arise in the cam
paign that would induce me to consent to
accept unanimous or any other nomination
With the second Tuesday in April l will re-
tire from Office and from politics." and the
mayor sighed softly as he put on his great
coat and prepared to close up shop for the
day.
Appllcatory to the above is the mani
festly well-founded theory that the para
mount reason for the strenuous effort to
induce Mayor Pillsbury to head the spring
ticket is his wealth, and his well-known
hberality. The campaign Of two
years ago was an expressive one
TO him, and there is no reason to presume
that the pending election would be less eX-
pensive. Once in the Pillsbury family
would spare no money or labor to carry the
day. The tricksters and sharper wire-pull-
erS would carry off the spoils, and that, to
them, is the great political desideratum.
Mayor Pillsbury evidently appreciates the
situation

Preceding the Nominations
AS will be seen below, Mayor Plllsbury
once more af1irmS his repeatedly expressed
determination to withdraw from politics,
and vet the statement given yesterday
morning. came straight from Republican
IF mdoubted standing. Before Mayor
Pillsbury had been heard from. this gentle
man SAID yesterday:
There is Il certain clique which runs and
controls the Republican party in Minneapolis,
or al least has done so, for by the Eternal, it
shall do so no longer. Well, this clique
brought Pillsbury out two years ago and got
he idea il could do anything. The other Gay
imcetiug was held in certain back office on
Nicoller avenue and the availability
ii certain candidates was discussed.
George Bracket was named and dis
missed, II being argued he would be
defeated. Capt. :. 2. Snider was the favor
tie because he is a thorough-going gentleman
and has bari besides. But he could not
be induced to make the canvass hard as those
gentlemen labored with him. Then Maj.
Hetllehnger was agreed upon. He was a
good soldier. is popular and il is believed he
would put his barrel on tap If necessary. He
was waited upon and agreed to accept the
nomination if rendered him, the manipulators
binding themselves TO see that this was done.
Wen, everything was arranged anu UlS p"Sh
office gentlemen rubbed their hands with
satisfaction, but then came thunderbolt in
the reconsideration of Mayor Pilsbury. The
caucus was knocked out on the first round,
but rallied and put its heads together. 1t
was solemnly decided that as Mayor Pillsbury
had declined he could not come back and they
would support Hefielhng9r. This they will
do and jolly row is now in prospect.
Later in the day came the mayors ulti-
matum and the consequent clearing of the
Republican sky. 1t looks now as though
Alaj. Hetfelfnger will be the Republican
nominee.

likelihood of lower passenger rates.
