and the sentiment i'll illinois, Gen.
Allen SAID:
lie Is the coming man, and all that l
heard in Chicago confirmed that opinion
III my mind. If it turns out to be true,
my inner conscience tells me that he
viii be elected. He is pure and upright.
Among the working people there is
strong feeling that he is their friend.
In 1880 L heard much of him during the
Indiana campaign, and learned of the
esteem III which he is held by his own
people.
president Cleveland, in my mind,
Killed himself by his message. He gets
credit for his bOldnesS, but his policy is
to throw everything open, and | don't
DelleVe the American people want that
to be done"
Judge Baking coming up the general
TOOK his arm and they Sauntered off to-
gether.
Joseph E. Osborne returned from
Brainerd yesterday. Of his trip, he
says:
Il finally decided that would not
purchase the Brainerd News, and so
came back. Mr.. Dewey retains control
OF the paper. | wish to correct the i'm
preston and reports that Mr.. Scheffer
was behind the scheme to scure the
paper. He had nothing to do with it.
Dewey and | are old friends and | had
been considering for some time whether
should take his paper OF not"

Col. H. NJ. Burchard, land agent of
the Winona & st. Peter railroad at Mar
shall, also good Democrat and SOciable
companion, was at the Merchants yes
terday. Of his part of the state he re-
marked:
Western Minnesota is solidly Repub-
Ican, and they have things about their
own way. The tariff discussion has
aroused great interest among the farm
ers though, and decided effort is be-
ing made to make it an ISSUE"

Stewart Rice, son of Congressman
Edmund Rice, arrived i'll st. Paul yes
terday from Washington territory. That
territory has two delegates in the st.
Louis convention and Mr.. Rice is one of
them. He will remain in st. Paul until
next Sunday, when, in company with
the Minnesota delegation, he will go
SOutaWard.
WI Bailey, of the Otter Tail Farmer,
is in St. Paul. Mr.. Bailey runs an agri-
cultural paper, which, rumOr says, will
very soon take decided stand on the
gubernatOrial convention. When 1t
jumps, where it will land is purely a
matter Of conjecture.
Capt. Henry A. Castle, Eugene Hay,
Mr.. LOwenStein had an interesting con-
fab at the Merchants yesterday. Said
the Captain:
Wei. I'm still here, and as had not
set my heart on going to Chicago, l do
not feel so very bad"
Mr.. Lowenstein-If | had been chair
man of the state convention you would
have gone.
The two agreed that the failure of
Hennepin county to agree as unit on
Gen. WaShburn complicated matters
badly. The success of Davis was due
more to accident than design.
If SAID Capt. Castle, THAT motion
had been properly put before the con-
should be balloted for together, | think
the result would have been that Gen.
Washburn, Mr.. Hartley and myself
would have been at once chosen, and
that would have left a fight between
Heatwole and Edwards for the fourth
delegateship. The Blaine strength ma
turally would go TO Edwards, and he
probably would have been chosen"
Mr.. Lowenstein-Capt. Castle, when
Hartley'S name was withdrawn you
should have followed suit and let the
Minneapolis candidates fight it out
alone.
MIR. Hay-I don't believe the Wash
burn men cherish any i'll feeling over the
result. What did you say? Does any
one know what Loren Fletcher's inten-
ti0ns are? ldOn't think any one does.
