FROM THE HOSTS.

FROM THE HOSTS.
The president announced that the con-
| ference would now hear from its hosts, and
called Oh d. G. Bell of Minneapolis, who
expressed the qualification of his city for
| visit from the conference. Ex-Goy. Mar
shall being called to the stand, said he was
delighted to express the thanks Of the city
for the conferences visit. He hoped the
second state prison would be SO erected and
managed as to pattern after the one at
| Elmira. Hon. w. S. Pattee of Mortified,
Mimi, was called unon. He had thought,
from what he had heard in the convention,
how little could ever be realized by human
legislation to bring the world up to the
standard of this conference. The circle of
the law was so small that it was as nothing
compared with the great circle of moral
influence. He thought that the in
| tluence of one lady in removing them
wine cup from her table was far greater
than any law. Great applause.) Human
law was the rachel of the wheel to fix what
was attained by other influences. Bishop
Ireland was called out, and said he was
glad to unite his voice with those of the
| great pleasure and education, and as an
American citizen he was proud that such
an assemblage could be gathered together
| in the name of charity.
| The president announced that he should
call on two gentlemen, to whom more than
| any others the success of the conference
was due, DIR. Dana and Mr.. Hart. DR..
Dana took the stand amid applause. and
said he was thankful for the conference
because of the ideas given the community.
Angels had been entertained in ST. Paul
but not unawares. He believed it was not
so much the knowledge of intellect as the
knowledge of inspiration that worked good.
The conference went about more as yeast
then bread. He hoped one result would
be that matron would be placed in the
| city jail, that never hereafter should
woman be searched by Il man in ST. Paul.
He hoped also for the new prison to be
built on the Elmira plan, and for the better
| provision for idiots and imbeciles.
| II. II. Hart said that the conference was
the realization of hopes long cherished in
| Minnesota. The welcome extended to the
conference was by the whole state, judges.
county commissioners and sheriffS had come
and listened and gone away to ponder. Mr..
Hart read a letter from one of the district
| judges OF the state. urging united action to-
ward the building of proper reformatory
instead of prison.S He said it befell him to
! say the last words of farewell and he said
it with a full heart. He was sure of meet
| ing friends when the next conference as
sembled. In closing he extended cordial
invitation to all the members to come again.
THE NEW PRESIDENT.
President Netf said that two very pleas
ant duties now befell him. One was to
thank the members of the conference for
their courtesy. He had obtained permits
sion to carry the gavel with him. the gavel

horse showed signs of sickness within
a couple of days after he bought him.
The horse has been sick ever since,
although he was used some during the
first week or two. A little over a week

of blood poisoning and he has been
growing worse ever since. He felt badly
some time before the sores began To ap-

opinion. The animal was in a very bad
condition and was shot by order of the
board of health on Wednesday night.

GILMAN'S RECORD.

The Crookston Times presents the hil-
lowing record of &. \. Gilman, wsnnow
asks the people of Minnesota ~. place
him in the gubernatorial csair. 1t is
placed before our readers fer their di-
gcstiOn:
From present appearance it would
seem that Mr.. GilG.aa expects to secure
his nomination fa. Governor by means
of Il solid delegation from the fifth dis
triCt. 1t with se somewhat surprising If
the fairness Of this part of the State
support him in the face of his past rec
ord, re has been chronic office seek
ar 81. the past twenty years, and during
.sa. time has been almost constantly in
office, and his course has been. such as
| To enrich himself by schemes Ind meth
ODDS that the people look upon ~ dishon-
est. While he was holding position
in the St. Cloud land office hundreds al
! thousands of acres of the best pine lands
i'll the State were gobbled by fraudulent
methods, until he became 50 odious to
| the people and the government that he
MAS obliged To resign his position.
/ During his career IN the legislature
| his principal efforts have been directed
Ia securing railroad charters and obtain
|
and then selling out the charter and the
swamp land grant to the Northern Pa
cific and Manitoba railroad companies.
One of these companies organized by
Mr.. Gilman was the Little Falls and Da-
kota railroad which he sold to the North
ern Pacific for Sl0i, 900. Another was
the road from Hinckley To st. Cloud
which he sold to the Manitoba, reserv-
ing several sections of the most vaiua-
BILE of the swamp lands, and receiving
the balance in cash. Another was the
st. Cloud, Mankato IL Austin railroad
which ne and his gang sold to "Jim''
ed to- these roads belonged to the State
to be used for internal improvements.
Through the scheming and plotting OF
Mr.. Gilman and his allies they have been
stolen from the State and have gone to
enrich a public plunderer.
This matter is of particular interest TO
that part os the fifth district within the
limits Of the Red River valley. If these
lands had not been stolen, a portion of
the proceeds could have been used to as
sist in draining the valley, but instead
Gilman and his crew with jim Hill and
other monopolies have these lands or
the proceeds from them, and the farmers
Of the Valley have been defrauded OF
| Willl WIS lilclT III
fact the proportion of the proceeds OF
these lands that Gilman has secured i'm
his railroad schemes, due TO this part
Of the State would have been sufficient
To drain the whole Red River Valley.
Instead of that the farmers must now
tax themselves and bond their towns
and counties to raise the money neces-
sary to make the improvements for
which these lands should have been
appropriated.
Mr.. Gilman claims to be friendly to the
farmers, but this cannot be true when
II is known fact that in the last lcgIsla-
ture he was against any measure for the
relief of the people from the railroad and
approved by the railroad and elevator
companies, and he is now supported by
the railroad magnatcs of the State in his
candidacy.

THE TWO CONVENTIONS.

NJ. Editor:
Some people who are not Republicans
and some who confess to be Republicans
and are seeking to be candidates for the
dear people to vote for are trying to
make trouble ameng the Republicans in
the country about the action OF the COM
mittee in calling two conventions. The
talk of the outsiders the people don't
care for, but why.the candidates are not
pleased by it, is not clear. It's general
ly looked upon to be u scheme of j. l..
Williams and some of the other Mankato
candidates to score point somehow or
other against the country. If it is in
tended for u snap game, they will slip
up on it, for the farmers propose to be
there, and the farmers rather approve
of the scheme. Farmers as Il rule are
not up in the methods of conducting
conventions, and when there are too
many things to be done ut once, they
are liable TO get mixed up, and in the
confusion loose il all and not know il
until it is all over and find the city has
got it all. But since it is divided, there
will be no mixing up the State offices
with county offices. There is really no
connection between the two any how
and when there are less things to trade
of course there will be less trading to be
done. Farmers generally can trade
horses and both sides make good
trade, but when 1t comes to trading of
fees, they will usually get traded out o
all that is good and the Office that they
really want they find some old rack-of
bonesof jockey stock from the city ii
traded onto them. Don't fret about til,
farmer, he Will be there. His principa
interest is rather in the county an,
Legislative ticket than the State, and II,
Is rather pleased to have them separat
ed, he can tend to them one ut tim
better. If one set of delegates can't g
To both, there are enough for two sets
We would rather take our chances Of
two conventions than try our luck II
trades i'm one that has SO much to do.

AMONG OUR NEIGHBORs.

LaaeSbOrO Journal: Fillmore county
will not forget that w. w. Braden is the
man for State Auditor.
st. Paul LdJOr Echo: A. r. McGill il
the only candidate for governor who has
the courage or manhood 10 tell the peo-
pie where he stands on the question
now ut issue i'll this state. Such man
merits the support of all honest men,
and it is noticeable fact that large ma
jority of the people of Minnesota are OF
the same opinion, also.
Neoc Uim RerieaU: Hon. A. II. MCGILL
is making Al very active canvass for the
GOVernorship and seems To be develop
ing considerable strength. Mac makes
friends wherever he goes and they very
generally turn out to be stayers, Gil
man and Gibbs had better be busting a.
round or else MCCiILL will gobble the
longest pole to knock the persimmons.
Lakefeld Standard: A. r. McGILL, editor
of the st. Peter Tribune, and also State
insurance commissioner, is visiting a
mong his political friends i'm Southern
Minnesota looking up his chances for
the governorship. Mr.. MCGILL has
many friends in Jackson county who
would be glad To vote for him. Mr.. Nc
GILL has from the first bee regarded as
the most prominent candidate for gov
ernOr.
Glencoe Register: 1t looks now as though
McGill would carry both Hcnnepin and
Ramsey counties, and the indications
are that he will have the solid support
of the Second Congressional district,
and by far the larger half of the Third.
This, with what scattering help he will
get in the Fiist, will probably place him
far in the lead of either Gilman or
Gibbs.
The Labor Journal wants Gibbs or
McGill to withdraw from the race for
governor, so as to fight Gilman more eff
fectIvely. Is either of the gentleman
named Il better friend of the working
man than Gilman?-TOdd Co. Argus.
The Argus is mistaken. The Journal
would have every other besides Mctiill
withdraw. We think Mr.. A. X. McGill
will be our next gOvernor.-LdbOr Jour-
nal.
RehWOOd Falls RereiHe: Some of the
Farmers Alliances III the state have
passed resolutions favoring Gilman for
governor, believing him to be more in
sympathy with the farming community
than any other candidate. This is rich.
Jim Hill il the alley, the abettor, the
urger; the champion, the political twin
brother of Gilman, yet some of the
Alliances curse Hill and kiss Gilman.
Benton Topic: McGill is man whose
veiy name is identified with the cream
of the public movement of this state.
He IL the editor OF prominent paper,
through the medium of which he has
labored, not for his party alone, not for
clique but for the people at large. BY
IL union of the various constituencies he
can be easily elected.
Martin County Sentinel: Ignatius Don
nelly in speaking of the anti-Ke ely fight
says: The outcome will be this, that
and think large number) will bolt
the ticket and make il cost the party
10000 votes. Should we fall to secure
1 controlling power i'm the convention |
we have concluded to dissolve aud form
third party and take the labor plat |
orm as the main plank in the platform.
