The Caucuses Evoke an Enthusiasm
Which Promises Very
Heavy Vote.
Democratic caucuses were held in the
thirty three polling precincts OF Minneapo-
is last evening, to choose delegates to the
county convention, which assemblies next
Thursday morning. The county conven-
lion will choose delegates to represent
Hennepin county in the state convention
1t st. Paul on Sept. IA, and in the con-
gressional convention, which will meet at
Minneapolis on Sept. 30. Without excep-
ton the caucuses were extremely lively,
and in this regard presented a marked con-
trast with the recent Republican caucuseS.
at which there was not the slightest en-
thusiasm. There was no fight last night,
and the only desire was to participate IN
convention whose harmony was SO
thoroughly foreshadowed. But one senti-
ment pervaded all of the caucuses-to
select delegates who would be the most
active in forwarding the interests Of Mayor
A. a. AmeS for governor A little rivalry
existed in this regard. but it was quite
good-humored The vote pOlled in pri-
mary election in which there was no con-
test was remarkably large, and evidenced
the active, warlike condition of the Henne
pin Democracy.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR AMES.
In some cases no instructions were given,
but the delegates chosen were known to be
staunch friends of Mayor AmeS In others
formal resolution of instruction was
adopted, as, for instance, the Third pre-
cinct of the Fourth ward adopted the fol-
lowing:
Resolved, That the Democrats of the
Third precinct of the Fourth ward. in eau
Gus assembled. declare themselves to be in
favor of the nomination of A. A. Ames for
governor, and do hereby instruct the dele
gates selected this evening to use all hon
orable means at the county convention to
secure delegates to the state convention in
his interest.
This form varied somewhat in other pre-
cincts but was of the same general tenor.
FOR CONGRESS.
Comparatively little interest was taken in
the congressional delegation, although it is
to be chosen by the delegates elected last
evening. AS far as could be learned, the
sentiment of the county is in favor OF Isaac
Staples of Saltwater for the congressional
nomination, though j. \. Castle and Z. w.
