WINoNA, June 17.-Hon. John Ludwig
went down to Chicago this afternoon on a
brief visit to his daughter, Lizzie, who is at
tending the Chicago academy of music. The
GLOBE correspondent who saw him on his
way to the Northwestern depot, ventured to
ask him what he knew about state and con-
gresslonal politics just now. Mr.. Ludwig
was at the secret convention held at St
Paul a short time ago. He said there was
not name mentioned there for any place
on the state ticket. The nominations
for the Democratic state ticket would be
made very carefully and with view of har-
monizing all classes. 1t was difficult to say
who would be placed at the head of the ticket.
He thought the Democrats had first-class
chance of carrying the First district if they
put up the tight man. Mr.. Ludwig, who is
chairman of the Democratic congressional
committee of that district, says Judge Wilson
is the most prominently mentioned on all
sides, and if he would accept the nomination
he would undoubtedly be elected against

was presided over by the President of the
First Baptist Society. A copy of the report
of the Secretary of the United Society of

There are now $50 societies in the United
States, and considerable number in foreign
countries These have been the growth
from one society formed five years ago in
this city under the direction of Rev. T. E.
Clark, formerly pastor of Willston church.
There are 400 societies in New England; so, :
600 young people constitute the united men,
bership, and all denominations are repre-
scented.
After this report was read short addresses
were made by Mr.. W. FL. Pennell and others
who spoke of the meeting at Saratoga. 1t
was evidently a successful gathering.
