MEN WE MEET.

The Winona Herald is booming Judge
Thomas Wilson for congress, and feels as
gured he could beat Dunneil out of his boots
in another contest There are others, how
ever, who believe Judge Wilson would make
G good stick of gUbernator!al timber. A
prominent Democrat Of ST. Paul said Of him
yesterday: Il believe Judge Wilson could
literally wipe up the state with Merriam next
year. There is going to be grand somer-
sault act in Minnesota next year, and l re-
gard Judge Wilson as just the man to head
It." His companion replied: Il indorSe all
you say about Judge Wilson. But my choice
would be Mayor Ed Durant. of Saltwater.
Gods how he wonld run! He has no en-
emies and hundreds of friends He wOnld
sweep the Twin Cities and his own county
like a hurricane" We'll. how about Doc
Ames?' ''Oh. nothing. only I'm just curious. "

Speaking of the senatorial situation IN
North Dakota. a prominent politician said in
the Merchants last night: 1T viii be dis
grace TO the new state if Pettigrew is permit
ted to get in his WORK and defeat Ordway. In
1880. when Gov. Ordway became the execu-
tive Of the territory. Dakota did not own two
bricks or stones piled one upon the other.
Pris oners were sent 10 Detroit for safe keep
ing. and the insane were huddled together in
an old useless frame building which was
scarcely fit for pig pen. When Gov. Ord
way had served his term of four years how
did he leave things? The old outstanding
warrants had been redeemed, and a big bal
ance was IN the treasury. There were mag
nifcent state universities at Vermillion and
Grand Forks, hospitals for the insane at
YanktOn and jamestown, peuitentaries a.
Sioux Falls and Bismarck. normal schools at
Madison and Spearfish, an agricultural col
lege at BroOkings, school for deaf mutes at
Sioux Falls. and a fine capitol building at
Bismarck which had not cost the people of
the territory a single cent. All these institu.
tons had been built at an exceedingly small
cost, and were most excellenuy managed.

Daniel E Bandman, the actor. rapcher
cowboy and general good fellow. was in the
city yesterday to see Marcus DAILY, of Butte
about the forthcoming Shakespearean festival
which is 10 be given under his management
ali through the Northwest, opening at Du-
luth on Friday night. He will play at An
aconda, Butte and Helena during December
and may give performances at one or two
places on his way, if he can get a
large enough guarantee. The citizens Of
Helena subscribed s., 500 and those of Butte
and Anaconda together $4,000 TO bring him
there. Mr.. Bandmann has just come from
San Francisco. where he played 1.-The Corsi-
can Brothers" for two weeks to magnificent
business at the Grand Opera house. He is
most enthusiastic in his praise of the COM
pany he has got together for this Shakspear-
can festival. The leading ladies are both
young. beautiful and accomplished. One
Of them is only eighteen years old, but
was Fanny Davenport's leading lady:
the other is nineteen, and was brought from
Australia by Mr.. Bandmann. The men he
has are Charles Hager, who played Romeo to
Margaret Mather's Juliet; f. C. Huebner
well known to all St. Paul; Waller Huebell
standard actor of good repute. and Messrs.
Parrish Hewitt and Hcyt. He opens with
Hamlet at Duluth Friday night Band
mann deserves a good deal of credit for
going to the expense of $1,000 a week
in giving the Northwest a chance to
see Shakespeare played in first-class
style. He is well known in St Paul, but still
better in Montana. where ne is known as a
simple cowboy. He is one of the jolliest b.
hemians out mere; and when Marcus DAILY.
Col. BroadwateT Gov. Toole and Bandmann
get together the fun flies fast and furious.
He Is also an author. his book, Seventy
Thousand Miles With Shakespeare" having
had sale of 1890 copies. Every one will
hope that on his trip the veteran actor will
not only reap golden laureIs, but shekels
also, as he rlchly deserves them.
