L. Ill. Kelly, IN Wnlcn ne says we are
going to have fight this fall even with
the nominations the Republicans have
made, but we will certainly succeed. L
am not going on the national commit
tee but will do what l can in an outside
way An effort has made" continued
Mr.. Kelly, ito make it appear that there
was prospect Of trouble be-
tween MesSrS. Scott and German,
but the announcement made by
the latter in the foregoing communl-
cation ought to put Quietus upon sucn
talk. There is not to-day in the United
States an ADLER politician than the sena-
tor from MARYLAND, and his work for
Democratic party in the pending cam
paign will be thorough and result only
In credit and victory. He is one OF my
warmest personal friends, and worth
as a leader is appreciated by the presi-
dent and every good Democrat in the
United States"
The state house was we'll nigh de-
serted yesterday, nearly all the officials
having gone to Lake View on the eX-
carlson which left in the morning.
Those who awaited themselves of the
opportunity of taking an outing were
Gov. McGilI, Attorney General Clapp,
Insurance Commissioner Shandrew,
Judge Gilfllan, Adjutant General
Seeley, and Messrs. Hughes, Stocken-
strom, Hiortsberg, Sanders, Jensen and

Il. c. Judson-I cleared up, out OF the
Ashland craze on real estate, Just
clean 1000, and those that were with
me did the same At the time l was III
everybody in Ashland was advising me
to hold on as everything would adj
vance. L thought differently and drew
out. Within twenty-four hours l was
very glad that l did, for the way things
went to smash in Ashland was perfectly
awful. The craze was all over, prac-
tically, in a few hours. Of course some
of the bitten ones hung around and
whined, but what could they do? Their
money was in some other persons
pocket with no constitutional way to
get at it.

Secretary II. r. Denny, being asked
how the state fair was getting along, re-
marked that he did not think any previ-
GUS fair had so favorable an outlook as
the one that is to be held this year. The
promises of articles for exhibit are very
abundant indeed. He had no heSitancy
in declaring that if these promises were
fulfilled the fair would be an unusually
large one. So far, however. Minneapo-
lis and st. Paul had not come forward
as readily and as generously as he had
expected they would. 1t was early in
the season. though, and it was probably
best to wait little. He expressed the
hope that the big manufacturing build
ing would be filled by these two cities,
as it would seriously mar the effect of
the display if portion of the structure
should be left without anything in it.

Capt. Frank D. Garretty, Seventeenth
infantry, returned yesterday evening
from brief and enjoyable visit to the
camp of the state troops at Lake City.
The captain says the national guard of
Minnesota is, in point of discipline,
soldierly bearing, equipment and gen.
eral efficiency, as fine body Of men as
he ever saw, and comedies their present
status to be due to the marked intelli-
gence and close application to military
duty SO thoroughly exemplified in the
present encampment.

"There are some things.whfch age can
not dim nor the ravageS of time impair
their usefulness" This reflection came
from gentleman yesterday who stood
ON Wabasha street as the band swung
by, heralding with its music the arrival
in st. Paul of Uncle Toms Cabin"
II don't suppose" said he, that there
has been year as far back can remem-
Der that some company hasn't appeared
in new and original version of this
drama. But the people seem to crave it,
else these companies would play some
thing else. Plays may come and plays
may go, but Uncle Toms Cabin like
TennySon's Brook will go on for
ever.'
D. d. Merrill-Rice street is one of
the best business streets in st. Paul
Ii runs out through good part of the
city, and, as the policy of the city has
been to block up everything east of the
cemetery as far as Mississippi street by
allowing the Jackson street hill to
stand, the result has been to throw pop
ulation out Rice street. The street cars
now run out as far as Maryland street,
which is as far as Rice street is graded

James Middleton, who presided over
last evenings Democratic conference,
is one of the oldest settlers of the state.
He came to Minnesota forty-three years
ago, and although he has always been a
fighting Democrat, he says he feels
more like fighting than ever. He has
always lived within a short distance
of st. Paul, and he has repre-
sented Washington county in the state
legislature. 81 was in fight once that
was fight" he remarked in his speech
accepting the chair; ''that was when
the state of Minnesota was organized.

times since, but / think we can make
Minnesota Democratic state this fall. y
