MEN AND OLETICS.


Dozens of people are now saying theY
would have voted for Ames if they had had
any idea it was going to be so close
1t is amusing to hear j. S. PillSbury say
the recent election was so close on account
Of the rivalry between Minneapolis and ST.
Paul McGill being credited to the latter
city. The ponder0us majority st. Paul
gave to Ames did not look much as though
there was any rivalry.
Hereafter. in local politics no American
BORN citizen need apply. The foreign flag
waves lovingly in the eye of any office
seeker.
The wonder has frequently been ex-
pressed whether Loren Fletcher considers
himself Endorsed. In the defeat OF Wraa-
man by such an overwhelming majority
and in the wiping out of the Al, 600 major
ity in the state. it would seem that his
methods were refuted. 1t is just possible
he may cons der the defeat of j. B. Gllhl-
Ian as mild Endorsement and he can GER
tainIy say, Il told you So"
Col. Charles w. johnson. chief clerk OF
the United States senate, is on the anxious
seat. Late returns indicate that the Re-
publican majority in the senate has dlsap-
reared. In which case he may not be again
appointed.
Orville Rinehart chairman of the late
Democratic county committee, has not been
flattered by remarks in the party on the
brilliant conduct of the campaign, while
Secretary Mccain has as yet received no
valuable testimonial of esteem.
Secretary Craig of the Republican COM
mittee, risked his political sagacity on Nc
Gill's getting $500 majority in Hennepin
county.
Two cities have been given the honor OF
being the home of McGfll. ST. Paul and ST.
Peter. Each of them gave heavy major
ity against him, and it looks as though
neither would claim him. Come to Mime
apolis, Mac.
1t is fair to presume that Col. Mattson
will make Luth Jaeger his deputy. He
ought to do that much for his son-in-law,
even though he did run as rival candi-
date.
Senator Clough should have been a candi-
date for the house 50 that he might have
run for speaker. That would have given
Seah Mathews a chance, for David can do
nothing without his Selah To whisper IN his
ear. David has already bought two copies
of Cushing's manual.
That ilustriOus trio, Senator Langdon,
Col Sam Hill and Col. F. P. Lane, now
mourns. The former can never be United
States senator and the two latter must hold
the ladder for some one else.
Winn Bracket will leave the sheriffs
Office with the consciousness of having
been good officer aud having made many
friends.
Sheriff-eIect Swenson was serenaded on
Saturday evening by the whole Seventh
ward. 1t cost him nearly his first years
salary.
Judge J. P. Rea very confidently claims
his election. but has not. at this writing,
received the returns from Wright county.
1t now transpires that the reason why
Judge KOon withdrew from the congress
sional race was that he might succeed
c. A. NimOcks as member of the park
commission.
1t is not yet exactly certain just who
will get the crow of victory and who the
crow of defeat.
Young Mr.. Baily during the late cam
paign has been conspicuous by his silence
or rather, has been Sienced by the conspicu-
BUSINESS he attained at the spring election.
Col. Charlie Johnson has a rival by the
same name, who has presented another
scheme to prevent common people from
voting.
Col Glenn-I advise all my friends who
have money up on the election OF Mayor
Ames as governor not to hedge. Tell them
not to give uD any thng-I never do.
Capt. Peter Mckernar has dubbed D. B.
johnson the Douglass of the Minnesota
Democracy"
The rumor is afioat that George <. Shaw
and j. B. Gillian have formed a copartner-
ship for the purpose of establishing night
school. and that George K. will preside
over the department of penmanship.
George P. j. Hill is supposed to be trav-
cling about the county endeavoring to pre-
vent the dOctoring of returns.
Gloom in large chunks is noticeable among
the attaches of the Sheriff's office.
1t is expected that E. j. Davenport will
assume the duties of the Office that sup
ports him some time during the coming
week.
A. T. Ankeny attributes the defeat of
the Democratic county ticket largely to the
manner in which the tariff question was
handled.
Ehle Allen, of st. Paul, last evening Wis
tied the city, paint brush i'll hand, for the
purpose OF posting the figures of Ramsey
county's majority at the prominent street
corners. but was prevailed upon to forego
bis determination, out of respect to the feel
Ings of the Republicans.
