McCutchen hall. Willis spoke first, being
introduced by Mr.. Paulson, president of the
meeting. The address of Mr.. Willis was
delivered in a plain. conversational style,
enivened at intervals by outburStS
of classic eloQuence. His address was
full of sound anti-monOp0ly sentiment.
and contained an elaborate eulogy of DR..
AmeS and the well loved and widely famed
mayor of st. Paul. Mr. Nordstrom fol-
lowed in a telling speech bristlng with
good points, and severely arraignlng McGlll
for his favOritlSm to insurance monopOlieS
and class interests. The audience was
largely composed of Republicans, but their
enthusiasm was unbOunded. and this fact
coupled with the ardent professions OF sup
port for Ames and Rice on the part of
prominent members of that party, indicate
a vast conversion to the cause of reform
and good government which is represented
by the Democratic party.
Wilson'S Majority will be Large.

WINoNA. Oct. 25.-Judge Wilson will
speak at the Opera house in Winona on Fri

and the statement sent through the district
by Lovely and his managers that Mr.. Will
son would not carry Winona county is one
of the most absurd of the many campaign
lies set afioat concerning him. There is a
confident feeling among his many friends
here that he will carry the district by
large majority and the estimate OF from
/. 500 to 1.S00 majority from Winona county
is not putting it too Ugh. Some OF Mr..
Lovely'S supporters here, who were partic-
ularly anxious to bet on their candidate and
even name majOrities, are keeping very
quiet and say the result is uncertain, while
bets are freely offered on Judge Wilson.
The most encouraging reports continue to
pour into the Democratic headquarters from
every county, and instead of Lovely turn
ing the TIDE of disaffection by his trip
through this district. it continues to rise
against him. A prominent Republican Of
Fillmore county said that judge Wilson
would surprise everybody by the large vote
he would get out there. and stated that in
Olmsted county he would probably get from
900 to 500 majority Judge Wilson speaks
at Fremont on Wednesday evening, at the
request of many OF his friends there.

PLEASANT GROVE, Oct. 25.-Judge
Wilson does not need to come to Olmsted
county to strengthen himself. The minds
of the people are fully made up, and all the
pyrotechnicS of the Republican orators cam
not change them. Therefore. Judge Will
son can rest content But, of course, the
people are glad to see him and hear him
talk. because he is one of the most inter-
estins sneakers in the Northwest and his
appearance here tonight was greeted by a
large turnout of the best citizens and farm
els. The speech of the judge was very
able one, and the closest attention was paid
to him. Although Olmsted county gave
Blaine majority of 5Ss in 1884, it is be-
lieved Wilson will hold Lovely about even.
If Lovely has a majority here it will be
very small indeed. Judge Wilson speaks

evening; Fremont Winona county, Wednes-
day evening; no decision about Thursday
