MINNESOTA REPUBLICANS ALARMED

MINNEAPOLIS, August 1.-The re-
publicans of Minnesota got the worst
shock OF tho campaign this morning in
the announcement that the Svenska
FOlkets Lidning, the most widely Cir
culated Scandinavian paper in the
northwest, had bOltcd Harrison. Seen
by a reporter, Magnus Lunnar, the
editor of the paper, said: 81 cannot
stand Oh the Chicago platform nor sup
port the nominees OF that convention,
| heartily favor a radical reduction Of
the tariff, such as Is recommended il
the democratic platform"
"YOu have always heretofore sup
ported the nominees of the republican
party?"
"Invariably. Our paper has been a
republican paper always"
"What is the general feeling among
the Scandinavians"
Speaking for the Swedes, | can say
that they are certainly in favor of q
reduction of the tariff. All of the lead.
ing papers of the country have taken
up that view and the masses are TALL
ing into line. The Swedes move
slowly in thought, but when they
reach a conclusion they arc. hard &c
change. The Swedish American, OF
Chicago, circulates very largely NJ
here, and il is warm for tariff reform.
AS Il result, it has become Independent
and tho same is the case with other in
%fluential papers. None of these, you
must bear in mind, were democratic
Swedish papers, and only a few years
ago there were no democratic Swedish
voters, either. Now they begin to be
independent, and the tariff question is
al the bottom of it all"
There are 10000 Scandinavian voters
in Minnesota, and it looks as though
the state would certainly 90 demo-

The Rev. j. Il. Thompson, who is a

the southern and western states under

preached two sermons in GOldsbor-
ough, N. c., last Sunday, and delivered
three Sunday school addresses In the
same city. Upon his return home he
was seer by a Herald reporter. The
conversation took a political turn.
Bishop Thompson said the colored peo-
pie of the south had in a large measure
forsaken the &. o. p. So far ~ he could
learn, the colored people would largely
support Cleveland and Thurman. He
said the colored people had Outgrown
the fear that was preached into them
four years ago, and that the poverty
and misery that was then predicted for
the ex-slaves by the republicans was
now known to be only a scare. The
bishop said that President Cleveland
had made a splendid record, and
instead of making lite miserable for the
old slaves of the south, as the republic
cans tried to make them believe he
would he had done everything no could
to assist them. And, with Il signifi-
cant wink and smile, the bishop added:
"And you'll find plenty of our people
in the north here who will support
