POLITICAL GOSSIP.
Mayor Ame5 is busy planning out his cam
paign. and will take the field Immediately. 1t
is doubtful, however. if he can meet the de-
mands made upon him. Every mail brings
him letters FROM people from all over the
state, the general tenor being; 1.-THE people
are aroused and enthusiastic aud only await
your coming. Come at once" He will make
a thorough campaign, and will leave no
county unvisited.
D. C. Custer, of the Sixth ward, is being
doomed by his friends for a seat in the legis-
lature. He has been member of the Ohio
legislature and is lifelong Democrat. He
is of the family of the late Gen. George A.
Luster. The Sixth-warders want him to boom
the Franklin avenue bridge.
Though the Office of sheriff of Hennepin
county is not the richest in the gift of the
people, it pays snug round sum. Since the
work house has been established the fees
have been reduced in the boarding line but
the Office is still reputed to be worth Sl2, 900
year.
A meeting of Scandinavians of the Fifth
ward is called for Thursday evening, at 80?
Eighth avenue south. to form a Democratic
club. All Scaudin avians will take notice.
Leading Scandinavian Democrats of the city
will be welcome to come and assist.
The berth of register Of deeds is tho richest
in the county. 1t is believed George HUM.
the present incumbent, made $4,000 clear in
the past year.
If Matt Donahoe, of Bird Island, is placed
on the ticket in place Of Gardner, the Irish
men of Hennepin county will be pleased
C. L. Locke has been prominently men,
toned as representative to the legislature
from the Twenty-ninth district.

"DvC" WILSON'S SISTER.
She Says That Levi Is Her brother.

WORCESTER, MACS, December s.
Mrs. George M. Rice, of Uxbridga,
called with her husband at the Gazette
Office today. Ms. Rice is the eldest
daughter of Jonas Wilson and sister
of Levi Wilson, and is some seventeen
years older than he is. Mrs. Rec has
been psstered by reporters, but has
refused to talk, not caring to be mixed
up in any way with the Moen matter
and fearing misrepresentation. All the
sensational reports Of her statement
are without foundation. She now
comes forward of her own accord after
reflection to tell what she knows about
"Dec" Wilson's psrentage. Her story
is direct and to the point, and COM
pletely contradicts the story of Wilson
that he is the son of Philip L. Moen.
She was at home in North Oxford
when Levi was born, and she had
watched him grow up as an infant and
through childhood. He was the son
of her own parents without any ques-
ton. He was named after her uncle,
Levi Fessenden. Her father died at
Quaddick, Conn.,, and she was with
him all through his illness. Levi was
also living at home. There never was
any deathbed confession by her father
as stated by Levi. She knew Of Lewis
suddenly becoming rich, but he never
explsined it to her. She had received
gifts from him, but only In brother
ly way. She never received anything
for keeping any secret. She thought
Levi must be out OF his mind.

sunset Cox,s SALARY.

WARRINGTON, December 3.-First
Comptroller Durham has written @
letter to the Hon. s. S. Cox, in reply
to letter from that gentleman asking
him to decide what date he can com
mence drawing salary as a member Of
Congress, 10 which Office he was
elected in November last to fill the I'M
expired term Of Mr.. Palitzer, and also
to decide whether he is entitled to
draw that portion of the salary as a
Representativewhich had accrued prior
to October 29th, when his resignation
as Minister to Turkey was accepted,
and to which time he had drawn sal
airy as such. Judge Durham, in his
letter, says: Up to October Goth you
were entitled to and were drawing but
one salary; from that date until you
were elected to Congress you had no
oitice, and consequently could draw
no salary. Under section 81, of the
Revised Statutes, relating to the pay
OF congressman elected to fill vaCan-
cies, you are entitled to draw your
salary as a member of Congress from
the time the salary of your predecessor
ceased, which WIS some time previous
to the time to which you were paid
your salary as Minister. While you are
entitled to draw salary as member OF
Congress for a portion of the time
during which you slso drew ealary
as Minister to Turkey, you were not
holding two Offices at the same time
and drawing pay for both, which
would seem to be prohibited by Sec
ton 7S5, Revised Statutes. but you are
entitled to draw such salary as mem.
Der Of Congress by reason OF the man
ner OF fixing the time when the salary
OF a member elect, as you have been,
to fill a vacancy, shall commence.
Congress, in it's discretion, may fix the
time when an officer shall commence
drawing his salary, provided his pred
ecessor has ceaeed to draw the same;
and as 80 provided in section 81, you
will be entitled, after you have been
sworn into Office, to draw your salary
as member, from the time when your
predecessor ceased to draw his salary,

comprising seventeen lodges, finally
succeeded in carrying motion to pro-
test against the judgment by 20 to
only 4 negatives. Mr.. Henry Wenter,

cradle feeling. The proposition Of the
District Committee is generally CON
sldered as lost by the vote Of the

the messenger, stated be would make
application that the hail of his client
be fixed a. $500, rs the evideaoe
