WORK WE'LL DONE.


1t would be hard to improve on the
ticket nominated yesterday by the Dem
oerats of Ramsey county. For some of
| the more important offices the prese mt
| incumbents were renominated by &C
clamatiOn, which is a sufficient certifi
cate of their efficiency and popularity.
The new men who are named on the
ticket are, without exception, gentle
men of superior qualifications and char
acter, and it goes without saying that
the entire ticket will be elected in No
vember.
The feeling of harmony which pre-
vailed i'm the convention. and the evil
dent desire to do what was right, was
an encouraging indication that the
Democrats of this county realize the
Importance of the approaching election,
| and are determined to stand together in
the fight. While in a few instances
there was sharp rivalry between can
didates, yet there was no evidence of a
fractional WI angle, nor was anything
done which was calculated to leave
sore spot when the convention was,
over. Whatever victories were won
were honorably won, and whatever de-
feats were suffered were the inevitable
fate Of political warfare.
1t was evidently a Democratic con-
vention, without suspicion of mug
wumpery about it. The action taken
by the convention. ard with practical
unanimity, with relation to the legis-
lative nominations confirms the opin-
ion that the Democrats of this county
are not in need of Republican sponsors,
nor are they in the business of setting
up pins for Republican senatorial can
didates. They propose to fight the bat
ties of Democracy strictly OH Demo-
cratic lines; and, by pursuing the pol
Icy, they are more likely to command
the respect of both friends and foes.
There is nothing more commendaDle
than honest politics. There are occa-
sions when purely non-partlsan action
is justified, and when the occasion arose
in yesterdays convention the body rose
equal to it. That was in the nomina-
ton of district Judges. But in matters
of strictly political concern, such as tine
selection of legislative ticket, the con-
vention followed the time-honored prac-
tice of Democracy of RELOCATING the
question to the people Of the various
legislative districts, and then confirm
ing their decision.
Taken altogether, there has probably
never been more intelligent, and GER
tainly there has never been more
square-toed Democratic convention held
in this city than the one that assembled
| in Newmarket hall yesterday. 1t was
absolutely free from bossism. and was
as near the ideal type of a representa-
tive assemblage as it is possible to get
| one under modern political conditions.

THERE is hardly an Instance Oh record
of more sublime acquiescence in the
dispensations of life than that of the
man on the river, the other night, who
quietly changed his wet clothes after the
cruel waters three OF four feet in depth
had torn from his arms wife and child,
and returned to his lodgings to enjoy
night of refreshing sleep before abiding
to his "bad luck" The nervous man
would have shown in his manner, if not
in words, that the pleasure of his boat
ride had been marred, and his hand
would not have been quite steady
enough to shave himself. The man who
smoked on the powder key furnished no
precedent.

ONE of the queer ways of creating
sentiment in their favor by the rival
candidates for the capital of South Da-
kota is to offer prizes for guesses at the
vote each will receive. 1t pays to have
people guessing big majcrities for the
offerer of the prizes. Pierre and Huron
are the chief workers in the contest, and
the chances are strongly in favor of the
one that has the most votes.

match in America. is at Newport, and is
going around under the chaperonage of
Mrs. Paran Stevens. He is generally
reported to be nice boy, with that
strong vein of good sense that charac-

young gentlemen, brought up on Pr

have good deal of American grit in
them after all. One night last week a
small sloop went ashore on the rocks

wind was blowing half gale and din
ners were in progress at several of the
cliff cottages. flock of young fellows
in evening dress appeared and worked
