The State Press on the domination Of
Mark II. Dunnell.
Dispatch: In the choice of Mr.. Du nnell
as their representative In Congress the
Republicans of the First Minnesota dis
trlct have acted wisely for the party and
for the best interest of the entire people
of the district. Mr.. Dunuell is not only
man of unbiemished public and private
character, but he is man who, in point
of ability and experience, will compare
favorably with the leading members of
the next house. He is in all respects a
foe worthy of Congressman Wilson in
point of ability, and he enters the canvass
happily with the united support of his
party. The contest will be fair test of
party strength IN the district, into which
no outside considerations will be allowed
to force themselves, The excellent plat
form adopted gives as clear expression to
republican doctrine as that adopted at
the recent democratic convention in this
city expressed the individual views of
Hon. Thomas Wilson, and the views into
the acceptance of which so many men
calling themselves democrats have been
forced by consideration Of party fealty.
Evening Journal: Any impartial OBJ
server who stood in the lobby of the
Cook house after the nomination had
been made and talked with the leaders,
must have been struck with the fact that
defeat has united First district Republi-
cans as they never have been united in
victory. Some of the leaders are not
oyer fond of DunneN but this GOODNESS
becomes a very furnace of admiration
when contrasted with the scorn and con-
tempt they have for Tom Wilson. There
need be no fear about Dunnell's election.
He is campaigner in whose lexicon the
word fail finds no place, and he will
puncture the hypocrises and false pre-
lenses of his opponent in way that will
be refreshing, This will he no Lovely
Wilson campaign in the First.
Lanesboro Journal: The nomination
of Mr.. Dunnell seems the best that could
he made under the circumstances. He is
an able man at home and abroad. Fac
tlonal opposition should now cease and
the nomination made unanimous should
be supported with such unanimity that
Republican shall fill the place now &C.
cupied by Thos. Wilson.
Owatonna Journal: It has been fated
that the representative OF the First Dis
trict in Congress shall again take the
high position IN Congress which the in
telligence of his constituency demands.
Hon. M. II. Dunnells experience and his
ability will render HIM the peer of any
member of the House. He is in the
prime of his intellectual and physical
life and never was in better condition
to give valuable service to his country.
As campaigner he has no superior in
the Northwest, and Judge Wilson will
find an antagonist on the stump able to
expose his sophistries. There will be
