who had the graveSt assurance OF going

the old geographical fight came up they
didn't have the same assurance. Sen
ator S. ID. Peterson. of New Ulm, threw
his chances to the winds; Senator Sabin
failed according to Mr.. Freeman) in his
attempt to keep G. X. Davis within Min
neSOta'S limits, and Graves, OF Duluth;
Gould, of WinOna; Newell, of st. Paul;
Turrell, of Redwood; Dunnell, Of Owa-

and pull hair to make the convention
harmonious.
The delegation this year may be R.
G. Evans, of Minneapolis; Stanford
Newell, of st. Paul; ID. B. Searle, of st.

Sabin and Davis, Congressman Lind

SIOUX CITY, To-, March 20.-Much
anxiety is felt by the settlers on the low
lands beyond the bluffs north of the
city because of the prospect of an over
flow like that of 1881. The snow fall in
the upper river country has been very
great during the past winter, and the
Warmweather is melting it rapidly. The
ice in the channel at this point moved
about o'clock this morning, covering the
pier of the new bridge, from the Gals
son of which the wOrkmen who were
filling it had just emerged. Work has
necessarily been abandoned at this pier,
although three or four days would have
completed it. A gorge formed about five
miles up the river this fOrenoOn,a land the
water is reported rising there at the
rate of six inches an hour. In front of
the city opposite Prospect Hill another
gorge, extending part way across, has
formed, the ice being piled fully twenty
feet high. Just below the city near the
mouth of the Floyd, another gorge has
formed. and the water has backed up
on the low lands, sweeping away Nc
Namara'S grading camp, where work
was being done on the approach to the
new bridge. Unless the ice gives way
in a short time there is danger of a seri-
Gus overflow and great many people
flock to the river banks to watch the
flood.
