THE OLD TICKET.
Opposing Politicians Who Expect the
Nominees Of 1885.
HOW SOME OF THEM TALK.
The State Slate for the Coming Cam
paign as a Union Lacquer
Sees It.

81 have been and am now as strong an
auti-McGill man as there is in Minneap-
Olis,' remarked a prominent member of
the Union League last night, "but the
conviction is growing on me thatihe will
be the nominee. If the convention were
to be held tomorrow it would be some
one else, but by the time the convention
rolls around it will be McGill, 1 do be-
lieve."
''Why do you think so?''
''It is feeling more than belief,
actually. 1t is sort of conviction. l
like Merriam and would like to see him
governor, but l believe it will never be.
While l know Hennepin county is
strongly against McGill, yet wouldn't
be surprised if. after all, the
delegation would be for him.
Stranger things have happened.
The congressional candidates, who
McGill and will largely influence the
delegation. Then look at the state. In
fuence will accomplish as much as
money, and, while Merriam has the
Doodle to spend, McGill has hold of the
machinery. You can see it work all
over the state. l hate it, but l believe
McGill will be the man."
"Can he be eIected?'
''Oh | guess the national campaign
will pull him through. But he can't
carry Hennepin county against AmeS,
by large majority, and | guess it will
be Ames.''
A short time after this conversation,
a Democrat who doesn't affiliate with
the Algonquin wing of the party, was
discussing the emocratic outlook and
said:
sit will be the ticket of 1886 over
again and Ames will be elected. There
will be many changes between now and
the convention and AmeS will be alone
when the time comes. The most fOrmid-
able competitor he will have, is man
who has not yet been mentioned. 1t is
Ed. Durant, of Saltwater. He is not
allied to any faction and has
ways been friendly to Ames and
at the same time friendly to Kelly and
Doran. But even he will not enter the
race when he sees how things stand.
Eugene Wilson will not be candidate,
and Judge Wilson will not give up his
congressional chance for an almost
dead sure defeat for governor. John
Meagher, of Mankato, doesn't want it,
and don't think Judge Flandrau does.
There is no one left but Ames. But
suppose several of them do run? Ames
will surely get Hennepin and Ramsey
counties against any man in either,
which would knock out any candidates
from either of tie cities, and would viz
tually settle it."
"What can AmeS do?"
''Be elected, of course. The fact that
this is a presidential year will help,
rather than hurt, the Democrats. We
have the low tariff tide with us, and
ought to ride through on it. If the ma
tional Republican platform is radical
for protection, Cleveland ought to
carry Minnesota and Ames with
him. l think they will help
each other. A little more care
must be taken in the selection of com
mittees and Ames must be saved from
his friends, who defeated him last time"
"Where will Scheffer be?'
"Nowhere, hope. Ii he should run
as an independent he would stand no
ghost of show of an election, but he
might hurt us to death without helping

while Marie Stone as Filina added new
laurels to her many previous triumphs:

never more effective. Tonight the ever

TO JOIN THE CRUSADE.
Ministerial Associations Urged to
Aid the WORKING Girls Cause.

The Knights of Labor are not only
naturally interested in the welfare
and wages of the working women of
Minneapolis, but have been actively en-
gagged in various plans for the improve
ment of the one and the increasing Of
the other. The officials of the order
have co-operated with the GLOBE in it's
effort to lay before the public
vivid picture of the actual
condition of the working girls.
their employment and wages,
and have encouraged the fullest inveSti-
cation and subsequent publicity. Yes
terday morning L. w. Brosnan, repre-
senting the order, appeared before the
ministerial association to suggest their
aid in the same matter. His address
was short, but directly to the point.
He called attention to the Eva
stated that the state labor statis-
tician, who had been engaged in getting
facts and figures, had reported that the
average weekly wages of the working
girls in Minneapolis was S5.21 per week,
Mr.. Brosnan said he though the aver
age was too high.
"Now," said he, you all know that a
girl, especially one who has any one de-
pending upon her for support, cannot
live on those wages. The sum will
barely pay girls board at arespect-
able boarding house, and then how is
she going to buy her clothing? Now,
what is needed in Minneapolis
is a working girls boarding house
where board and room may be obtained
for from 81 to $3.50 per week. There
are now one or two such boarding
houses here, but they are filled to over
flowing and the prices charged are too
high. | have seen number of prom
inent ladies who are interested in such
things. and they suggested to me the
ACCESSIBILITY of laying before you the
matter, knowing you are also interested
in it. When the proper time comes L
would like to have you gentlemen lay
the matter before your respective con-
gregations and ask financial aid for u.s."
A short discussion followed, in which
it was decided to lay the matter over for
two weeks, when Labor Statistician
John Lamb and Mr.. BrOSnan will APP
pear before the meeting, and action will
be taken.
In the afternoon Mr.. Brosnan went
before the association of Methodist min
listers and asked their cooperation in
practically the same shape. The gen.
tlemen appeared deeply interested in
what he said, and promised to give the
matter their early consideration.

GRAND JURY FOOD.
The Spread Occurs To-day-A
Probable Forecast.

The April term Of the district court
opens to-day, and the new grand jury
will meet and commence its labors. 1t
is generally expected that Gen. A. B.
Nettleton will be appointed foreman,
and that Judge Hicks will deliver the
charge. Inspector Ray will be on
hand with large amount of evidence
against the saloon keepers, and the
dairy commissioner will be there
to tell the members of the jury
about the milEmen who sell
adulterated milk. The murder on the
flats will be investigated, and the cases
of number of culprits confined in the
county Jail will be looked into.
There are ninety-fve criminal cases,
which have been continued from last
term, among which are the cases of
Adit. Ward and ex-License Inspector
Kelly, These, with the new cases
turned out by the grand jury, will give
the county attorney and his assistant
plenty of work, which will probably
keep them busy until the middle of the
summer.

MUSICAL ART.


Prof. Quinn Claims Minneapolis
Is Making Some Advancement.
Speaking of musical matters, Prof. NJ.
l.. Quinn remarked last evening":
"We have finished fine season in
musical art; that is, we have passed an
epoch in our artistic career. There is
musical instrument in very nearly every
house in the city, and one or two stu
dents hard at work. Walking up or
down any street we are greeted by the
various exercises, pieces, ETC., used
by the students in their In
dustrious efforts to become musicians.
Year in and year out these poor deluded
children and young people sigh to show
the world the ring of the metal that
compOses their artistic being. But none
ever get beyond mediocrity. Few reach
this point. Now, why is this? l think
the universities of Europe, Eng.
land and Ireland show all OF
the ''great ones'' are properly
directed, i.e., they learn something
of music while they are studying gym
nastics on the various instruments and
the voice. Here one has everything to
stake. nothing to gain, when seeking to
follow the example of artlst-pr0duclng
teachers. BY their works ye shall know
Them When one works conscien-
tiously to do some real teaching,
what do they meet? First, the
objection of persons who have
tried and been found wanting
the parents and students do not wish
to be anyrhing-but to be able to make
a show in drawing room or a mutual
admiration concern called musicale 81 or
concert They are allowed to exhibit
their new dresses, ETC., ETC., but no
artists appear. l, for one, do not APP
prove of this sort of thing. Students IN
any branch need fundamental
knowledge of the elements of their
branch. If they know the elements of
music they can sing anything adapted
to their voices at first sight, and can
compose correctly, if not artistically.
Nothing equals success. Failure is not
success.

Some Other Church.

The association of Methodist minis
tiers yesterday had very spirited dis
cussion of amusements. A paper on
the subject was read by one of their
number. in which the sin OF theater-go-
ing was handled without gloves. When
the discussion came, one minister threw
a bombshell into the meeting by blandly
remarking that something should be
done; that he knew a methodist con-
gregation whose members went oftener
to the theater than to church, and
Name the church! Let us know it,
chorused the ministers.

name will answer the CHARGE" he re-
sponded. Il meant no one in par
ticular,"
But every minister was sure his was
not the church referred to.

"AMERICANS ABROAD"
DR.. Lorimer's Very Entertaining
Lecture Last Night.


Popular DR.. Lorimer, Of Chicago,
amused and delighted large audience
last night in the First Baptist church
with his delightful lecture, americans
Abroad" The title is a little mislead-
ing, as nothing is said by him of the hab-
its Americans pursue in foreign lands,
them peculiar wherever they rove, in
London OF sailing down the Rhine or
wandering in the classic, sunnyland of
Italy. Nevertheless. his appearance
and the appearance of his elegant
views were an immense success in
every respect, and alternately he
touched his audience with gentle hui
NOR, woke them to peals of laughter
by his anecdotal power and led them to
serene and lofty heights where the
poets live, by that rough and rugged
eloquence for which he is so famous.
Splendid views were shown of Scotland,
London, Paris and the Rhine. The uni
versities of Oxford and Cambridge were
also shown, and DR.. Lorimer advised
those contemplating building colleges
out here to take good look at these
views and get hint from them of what
a noble, dignified college ought to be.
He also told the young men of Mime
ap0llS who are anxious to become law
yers and professional men not to be
shoddy in their ways, not to go
to college before they have been
to school, as was too often the case in
this country. Altogether the lecture
was a great success. The boy at the
slide got somewhat mixed once in a
while, and the Madeleine in Paris came
out upside down, and it looked for all
the world like our everyday elevators,
but the good doctor wasn't ruffled
in the least and sang out in his gruff
way: Just slow up, my boy, and you'll
get there" Then every one laughed
and felt the spirit of the thing and
geniality reigned all around.
The First Baptist church has been
very successful this season in present
ing entertainments of an exceptionally
interesting nature.
