POLITICAL DRIFT.

A few iniudiciouS Republican Office
seekers i'll trying to save themselves
from the impending defeat which
awaits them on the 9th of November,
have commenced spreading the report
in certain localities that the anti-Cath-
Ollie association is made up principally
of Democrats. This is very bad break
on the part of the Republicans, for any
one who has taken the trouble to inveS-
tigate the makeup of this association,
which on account OF its being a secret
society, is quite difficult task, must
know that politics cut no figure in its
makeup, and that members of all
political parties belong to it. One thing
is certain, however, this association has
received fewer recruits from the Demo-
cratic party than from any other polit-
zeal party.
The Tribune announced yesterday
that the Farm and Labor party held a
meeting Saturday night at which a
county ticket was made up by ratifying
the nominations of Eye for sheriff and
COndit for auditor on the Republican
ticket, and DR.. Lalberte for coroner and
i. j. Buxton for comptroller Oh the
Democratic ticket. No such meeting
was held. On the contrary, the Farm
and Labor convention has been called
for Wednesday evening at 123 Nicollet
avenue. So 1t seems the Tribune has
by its previOuSnesS exposed the little
scheme of Eye, Condit, ct al.
The Republicans nominate William
Lochren for the district judgship and
A. t. Ankeny for the school board, and
then point to their lofty non-partiSan-
ship, when, as a matter of fact, they
are trying to strengthen their weak
ticket by the popularity of these candi-
dates.
Books for the registration of voters
open at the polling places tomorrow
morning. Remember that an entirely
new list of of voters is to be made and
every one must register.
1t transpires that George II. Miller
did not receive the Republican nominal
ton for school board director because
he leans towards prohibition IN his tenn
perance views. His disbelief in the
party doctrine of free whisky cost him
his nomination.
Capt. E. G.. Babb, sadly-I was very
sorry to hear young friend of mine
say that he WAS getting tired of this old
soldier business.
DIR. NJ. 7. Finnegan No city conven-
ton of the Farm and Labor party has
been held, as announced in the Tribune.
The "Rebel Yell'' editor Of the Trih-
une should put ice 1n his head.
The present campaign docs not differ
in one respect, at least. from its pre-
decessors. A. {. Austin is running for
Office, as usual.

The announcement in the papers yes

A CAMPAIGN FOR VICTORY.

The Democrats of Minneapolis have
already inaugurated the winning cam
paign, and the Republicans are assist
ing them in tine character of a hight
which invariably ends in the success OF
the ticket of the masSes-the Demo
cratic ticket. A full vote in Minneapo-
lis means a Democratic victory, and the
only possible way in which the entire
vote can be brought out is by cam
paign which carries the war into every
nook and corner of the city and Stirs up
every voter. That is the kind of cam
paign the Democrats propose to keep
up until the polls close, and it will re-
suit in a majority for every man on the
ticket, from Z. NJ. Wilson to the last
member of the city boards. There is no
year on record in which lively cam
paign did not carry a Democratic vic
tory: and it is certain that Minneapolis
has been growing more and more into
reliably Democratic city. This year
the committee is organized for business,
and is emphatically working commit
tee. The party is organized and har-
monious, and every party leader on the
aggressive and ready for the fray.
Mayor Ames will make campaign
through the state and return to speak
in every ward in the city. The Democ-
racy is in the right and will win.

The people of Minneapolis know

tensively brings them in connection
with the reading public. Both of these
facts were made fully evident in the
SUNDAY GLOBE of yesterday, the first
In the avidity with which the paper was
sought after and bought upon the
streets, and the second in the space de-
manded by leading merchants in the
exposition of their bargains in trade.
No paper is so popular with the masses
in Minneapolis as the SUNDAY GLOBE.
Ask that sharp and competing army OF
little merchants, the newSbOys, which
paper finds the readieSt market-whleh
paper is in greatest demand. Ask at the
hotels and news stands which paper is
most sought after. In both cases the
answer will be 1.-The SUNDAY GLOBE"

pie, and they will have no other.

more than he did the stupid. sleepy
courtroom. His clerk was like

me to let him off with week in jail?"

The twenty Fenians were brought

The man thanked the Judge and
stepped down to the bailiff. There
was terrible sensation among the 9TH
er defendants. Why. none Of them
expected TO get off with less than five
years in limbo. Here was Il chance to
profit by Ibis Honor's' pleasant
mood. One and all manifested an
