Postmaster William Lee-Unques-
Honabiy the attitude taken by Hon.
Knute Nelson on the tariff question
will have its effect on the Scandinavian
vote this fall. 1t will set these people
thinking and reasoning for themselves.
] think the Democrats have splendid
fighting chance in Minnesota if the right
men are put forward. The Prohibi-
tionists are increasing in numbers and
the Republican vote will suffer in con-
sequence. Edmund Rice will run if his
party insists, and Ramsey county alone
will give him 10000 majority.

Secretary Poupeney-It was our in
tention to have the DeS MoineS club up
here next Sunday for game, but, great
guns! they were so modest that they
frightened US out of the scheme. They
were liberal enough to allow us to fur
niSh the grounds and the audience and
they would take the gate receipts. We
could see no business in that, and so
the matter was dropped. The Des
Moines club will not be seen in st. Paul
till 1t comes in the regular schedule
games. In order to give the people of
st. Paul entertainment we made what
we considered very liberal propositions,
but that club demanded more than we
could think of allowing.

Col. Allen-I don't know but l feel
more satisfied now that l have retired
to private life. When l was a states
man and president of the city council
may have felt somewhat larger than
now do. Being put into place and
lifted up, as it were, frequently causes
a man to feel little larger around,
especially about the head. 1t is sur
priSing how much influence such things
have upon the circumference of men.
When retired from public life l took a
private station, and for year did moth
ing but travel and enjoy myself. I be-
came tired of it. have just completed
comfortable summer home at Lake
Minnetonka, and will engage very mod
erately in business. doing just enough
to keep myself busy.

Senator Ramsey-About fifteen years
ago large party of people went out
over the Breckenridge division of what
Is now known as the Manitoba road to
open that branch. At that time there
was but very little to be seen on the
foute-certainly no towns or villages of
any pretense, and scarcely house or a
shanty. AT Breckenridge there was not
house, but frame one was just being
started. Now the whole line of the road
runs through well-populated farming
district filled with thriving towns and
cities. The same may be said about the
Sieu TlNer valley. Inc n6XU HIUeen years
will do much to develop this vast en-
pie.

DR.. Day-It is difficult to set any par
ticular time when such a structure as
the new court house will be completed.
1t is a very large building, and the con-
tracts, which are numerous, have been
made with great many people in vari-
Gus parts of the country. There is con-
siderable to be done yet. 1t is probable
that portions of the building will be
finished this winter SO that they can be
occupied. This can be readily done,
and the rooms occupied can be warmed
lighted and made comfortable in every
manner. The whole structure will
hardly be completed before next sum
mer or fall. There is a good deal to do
yet, and several hundred men are kept
at work all the time.
