GOOD DEMOCRACY.
How 1t Looks in Goodhue Count

How 1t Looks in Goodhue County.
Special to the Globe.
RED WING, June 29.-1n striking
contrast with the Republican bicker-
ings and jealousieS at this convention
has been the spirit of enthusiasm mani
tested by the Goodhue county Demo-
Gratis. You must remember that while
Goodhue gives Republican majority
of from 1880 to 2,200 for gov
ernor and congressman, she has
a democratic state senator-Peter Mel
son, who succeeded democratic sena-
tor, o. NJ. Hall-and she has also some
blood in the state. Among these are
Messrs. Hall, Michael, Rich, Pierce,
Pratt, Fulton. Cook and Nelson. 1
talked quite fully with them yes
terday, and their responses to
my inquiries were of the
most satisfactory nature. All they ask
of the state leaders of the Democracy is
to give them strong and vigorous state
ticket, headed by either Edmund Rice
or Eugene Wilson, or. if he will take it,
Knute Nelson. Then, with Judge Mac
Donald for congress again, they
promise to make such fight
for the national ticket as Minnesota
has never seen. The Cleveland-Thur-
man tickat is to their liking, and when
the Republicans marched to the con-
vention hall this morning they passed
under a great Cleveland-Thurman ban
! ner that tapped its folds triumphantly.
The Democrats here are tariff reformers
and not only think but talk it. Not
man among them but has read the
message, waded into Adam Smith
and studied Schoenhoff, while not few
find strong meat in Shearman and
Wells. Dom Piatt's new monthly maga-
zine, with its economic leaders and
deadly blows at high tax, is very popu-
lar. The feeling is prevalent that good
tickets and hard work will carry Min
nesota into the Democratic column this
year. Red Wing is making vigorous
| fight for the Democratic congressional
convention, which will be called within
a fortnight. Of course Judge MacDon-
aid will be his own successor, but Good
hue wants the affair to be within her
own bailwick. Senator Peter Nelson is
slowly gaining stength and finding
health again. The senate will probably
hear his voice and feel his influence
| again next winter.

Reunion of Republicans Who
Voted for Fremont.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June 2S.-A re-
union of those who voted for John G.
Fremont for president of the United
States in 1856 was held at Danville,
twenty miles west of here, to-day. The
attendance, despite miserable weather,
was about 5000. 1t was expected that
Gen. Harrison and Gen. Fremont would
be present, but the former was unable
to attend, and Gen. Fremont was in
New York. The following telegram
was received from him:
New York, June 2S.-It would have given
me extreme pleasure to share in celebrating
our campaign of 1856, but cannot get to
Indiana. congratulate your people on the
nomination Of Gen. Harrison for president,
and would have been glad to see them in the
first flush Of success. Every one of them
win now do his duty for the honor of the
state. JOHN G. FREMONT.

ers in the eaisson on pier No. of the
Omaha Council Bluffs bridge, now being
built across the Missouri river, had
terrible experience this afternoon, which
came very near costing them their lives.
Their escape is considered miraculous.
Their names are John Hurley, James
Dowdy and John Brady. The men are
not allowed to enter the caisson until
after being examined and pronounced
physically sound by physician. Two
hours constitute shift. These men en-
tered the caisson at Z o'clock this MORN

the men pass from the outer air into the
forty pounds of pressure under which
they work, had become cemented fast
while partly open, by the concrete shot
down into the caissOn. The forty
pounds pressure kept the water back
and the men dared not open the lower
door as the water would then have
rushed in and drowned them. By hard
work the men on the outside succeeded
in building an extra door and by $50

pounds pressure for nearly twelve

sidered safe for man to remain there
Two of the men were able to walk with
assistance, but the third was completely
paralyZed, and it will be several weeks
before he can be about again.

nounced himself out of the fight. The
word was passed around. The GLOBE
said Thursday morning, ''the nominee
will be Strait or Hall, and Strait will
dictate the nomination"
Maj. Street did. He was the real
victor of the convention. GOOdue agreed
to support Hall, although it is reasonably
certain that only twelve of the fourteen
votes went to him. Immediately after
supper the roll for the third formal bal
lot was called. 1t resulted as follows:
Hall. "a; Reed. 81; Strobeck, 2.
Chairman Peterson declared d. S.
Hall the nominee, and motion to make
it unanimous was carried, although
there was dozen dissenting votes.

RED WING, June 2s.-The defeat of
Capt. Reed caused at once a soreness
and bitterness that stuck out on every
side. The GLOBE stepped up to Capt.
Reed and asked for his opinion of the
result. He replied:
Il am satisfied. I will take off my
coat and work for the nominee" Then
he heSitated moment. Disappointed
ambition and rage were struggling for
the mastery of his discretion.

Until train time delegates stood in

sying Republican defeat, while inside,

over the result. The convention ended

HELENA, Mont, June 2S.-A San
Francisco paper few days ago noticed
the death of Miss Force, and stated that
she had made provision in her will that
$4,000 now on deposit in the First Ma
tional Bank of Helena should be paid
to Count Drake, of Paris. France. In
quiry showed that Miss Force belonged
to a worthy and aristocratlc family in
Plainfield, N. j. Some years ago,
while making tour of Europe,
SHE MET COUNT DRAKE,
a handsome and fascinating French
gentleman of the old nobility. The in
geniOusness of the girl charmed the
man. His polished manners and, above
all, his devotion to her, captured Miss
Force. The count became one of the
party of tho fair American and travelled
with her through France, Italy, Spain,
and not until England was reached
did he bid adieu to the party, and then
as the betrothed of Miss Force. The
count came afterwards to America and
became desirOus of engaging in the
stock business in this country. He
confded his plans to Miss Force, and

requisite, $4,000. The count went into
the business of sheep raising. He had
big ranch well stocked with sheep, a
number of Mexican herderS and be-
lieved he was in a fair way to retrieve
the fortunes of his family, but bad
weather, coyotes and rascally Mexicans
soon decimated his fiocks, and
he returned to Paris poorer
than when he embarked in the
American enterprise. A lucky turn
on the Bourse retrieved the counts
fortunes and the first thing he did was
to send Miss Force the $4,000 he had
borrowed from her and an additional
$4,000 for her faith in him. About this
time Miss Forces health began to fail
and she travelled west in hopes of bet
terment. While in Helena she depos-
tied 20,000 in the First National bank.
She went from here to California in
search of health, but to no purpose. She
established herself at Oakland and

loved.

POLITICS AND INDIANS.

A Combination That Developed
Bloodshed in the Choctaw Ma
tion.
FIT. SMITH, Ark, June 28.-PoliticaI
excitement in the Choctaw nation runs
high, and another brutal political MUIR
der has just come to light. Three weeks
ago Sheriff John G. Crowder, of Jackson
county, ChOctaw nation, was arrested
on the charge of being implicated in the
killing of Willie Jones, the son Of the
treasurer of the Choctaw nation and
candidate for governor. Crowder was
arrested by deputy appointed without
process of law, so it is charged, and Bit
ter political feeling was engendered.
Ben Carness was acting sheriff, and two
days after the arrest of Crowder, went
with party of men belonging to the
vigilance committee to the house of Phil
Colbert, full blood. and friend of
Crowder. All were drinking and got
into difficulty with Colbert, arrested
him and beat him over the head with
siX-shooter and clubs, from the effects
of which he died i'll few hours. No
arrests have been made and the matter
has been kept secret. All concerned
are citizens of the Choctaw nation.
