Senator Hall of Red Wing" remarked
prominent Democrat at the Merchants,
Twill make good race for congress in the
Third Minnesota district. He is the pres
ent representative of that county in the
senate. and has acquitted himself creditably
while there. He has large personal &C
Quaintance throughout the state, which
fact would prove of great benefit to him if
he should secure the nomination at the
hands of the Democrats. III. b. Strait, the
present incumbent and straightout Re-
publican, will not run and the scramble for
his place by Republicans will enable Dem
ocrat to run in if the right kind OF nOmina-
ton is made"
Senator Hall of Red Wing, at the hotel
yesterday, said that at present he was not
in any sense a candidate for the nomination
of congressman by the Democrats of the
Third district, but he would not tell what
the future had in store that might induce
him to change his mind. He intimated
strongly that he considered thai the Demo-
Gratis had more than a fighting chance IN
that district and thought that with the right
kind of work the Democratic nominee might
win the fight.

some time. and the expectation was that the
road would be in operation to and from
Prescott by the middle of next October. He
said that the construction company had
been thoroughly reOrganiZed and as con-
sequence was in position to push the work
with more vigor than had characterized that
feature of the road during the past few
months.
