The Mortified News, in discussing
recent meeting of Trading Republican
| politicians in Minneapolis. thus ex-
| presses itself:
| OF course the rural districts are &nxioasly
! waiting To have the Minneapolis bosses to
| fix up the slate. There can be no doubt
! about thpt The News has frequently warned
| the people against the Minneapolis comDiBa-
| ton; and it will be well for them to continue
| on guard. The rurallst is capable OF taking
| care of himself. and we have that confidence
! which ASSURE us he viii when the proper
| time comes. Don't try 10 brighten him
Then Frank Mead. who ought to know
what he is talking about, delivers him
self as follows with regard to the above:
| The Twin Cities lie very close together and
| their leading politicians drink the same
| variety of strong drink over the same bars.
| Thus they grow together like twins ard
| combine their influence TO get away with It's
| rural rooste-s. And. somehow, they nearly
| always succeed.
Gen. Jennison. of the Red Wing Re-
| publican, goes TO the bat next and
knocks the political ball clear over the
fence in the following style:
The people hereabouts, having been warned
| against the Minneapolis combination. are
now everlastingly 'on guard" Their souls
are in arms and eager for the fray Most OF
| the people have gatling guns in front Of their

Hon. Alvah Eastman. the astute and
willy politician who presides over the
| Anoka Herald. expresses his con
| illusions as follows:
| 1t IS certainly the height OF fooishness to
| exnect the men who went into the fight to
| elect Senator Washburn to give X. B. Lang
! don a preference for any Office. Langdon
| was bitterly opposed to Washburn and was
| responsible for the loss of at least TIRES
! votes in the Henuepin county delegation.
/ Oh. yes! Washburn's friends are extremely
| anxious to see Langdon governor.
The last extract was shown to friend
| of MIR. Langdon. After reading it over
very carefully he remarked that in all
| probability Senator WaShburn will have
| all he can do to keep his own fences in
| repair without fighting Mir. I.angdon.
Besides" he said. sit is we'll known
| to Senator Washburn and his friends
| that Gov. Merriam did not help him.
! On the contrary. his choice was Senator
Sabin if he could not get the place him

| P. W. Wildt. Senator Washburn'5
| candidate for collector of internal reye-
nue., to succeed Mir. Biermann. was in
| Minneapolis on Tuesday accompanied
| by Hon. t. 3. Clement. of the same
| city. Together they called before Mr..
| WaShburn. and it is understood that the
latter gave Mr.. Wiidt assurances that
his commission will be Forthcoming
soon after congress assemblies.
A Republican from the bailiwick OF

''the hogg ishneSS of the Twin Cities In

| the gentleman, The has already secured

/ Republican papers. Whether he will
| succeed in receiving the second Is &
matter of grave doubt, and If he did get

| not do him any good, for by his kicking

| Republicans all over the district, who,
while they would not openly fight him,

| Those who have met Senator WASH

| that a most remarkable change has
| taken place in his manner, by which he
| is much more cor'iial aud appr0achable.
| Whether this is due TO his contact with

| a realization that his term will expire W
| 1894 is mooted question.
