Special to the Globe.
MANKATo, Mimi, May 1.-Two con-
ventiOnS meet here tomorrow, the Re
publican at 10 a. m, the Democratic at
p. m, so that politics absorb all other
topics. Representative Lind's, the Re
publican district, convention probably
ranks first in importance, and the same
body will choose two delegates to the
national Republican convention at Chi
cago next month. The Democrats will
choose delegates to the state convention
at st. Paul next Thursday. 1t will be
fight between the AmeS and Doran men
from the outset, much as the leaders of
the party here deplore such condition
of affairs.
Those who have been interrogated on
this subject by the GLOBES representa-
tive are unanimous in the expression
that this is no time for Schism in the
party growing out of the personal am
bitiOn or quarrel of any two men or set
of men, and that if necessary both AmeS
and DOran should be set aside and
everything done to build up strong
party in Minnesota.
There is sentiment, too, that if
Mayor AmeS wants to be renominated
for governor he is impairing his chances
by seeking the position of delegate to
st. Louis, merely honorary position,
when there are other and deserving
Representative John Lind does not
think it necessary to appear before the
nominating convention which meets
here tomorrow, and in a letter written
to his law partner in this city he states
that he cannot leave Washington at this
time. All the indications point to his re-
nomination by acclamatiOn for congress,
since no other name has been mentioned
by the Republicans for his place. Dele
gates are arriving by every train and
talk with some of the leaders shows
that the principal contest in the cOnven-
ton is expected to ensue for the posi-
tiOns of delegates to the Chicago con-
ventiOn.
Amongst knowing ones the names
most frequently mentioned for dele
gates to Chicago are MesSrs. j. E.Brown,
of Mapleton, and E. Il. Smith. of Man
kato. with the chances decidedly favor
able to the selection of the former for
one of these places. There will be 133
delegates in the nominating convention,
