A Veteran and Thorough Going
Democratic Candidate for the
Legislature.
James Smith, one of the candidates
for the legislature from the Thirty-sec-
ond district, is shining light in Mime
apolis masonry. He is known among
the craft as the man who tells the "big
quail story" Mr.. Smith was born in
Scotland fifty-four years ago. and
ents in 1s41. On the memorable
day that Fort Sumpter fell, then
he enlisted in the army. He
served with distinction through the
first years of the war in the Twenty
eighth New York infantry, and after
the battle of Cedar mountain found
himself in command of his regiment,
though only an orderly sergeant. Every
field and line officer had been either
killed, captured or wounded. For
bravery in this battle and other
meritorious services young Smith
commission was signed by New York's
great governor, Horatio Seymour, who
afterwards was candidate to the presi-
dency. When the regiment was mus
tered out, Capt. Smith went home with
one of his comrades in arms. His young
friend had sister, and the soldier boys
sister became the gallant captains
bride.
After the marriage, Mr.. Smith settled
in Chicago, and was engaged for num-
Der of years in the manufacture of har-
ness. running a large factory.
In 1883 he came to Minneapolis, and

In the council chamber at the city

hibited the booths which will be used in
the coming election. The voting booth
is constructed of plain pine implanted,
and is so put together that it can be
folded up fiat and stored away for fut-
ure use. Practically there are but three
sides to the booth. the fourth consisting
merely Of a curtain which falls down
about two-thirds of the way. The cur
tain is to hide the voter from the public
and from the judges of election. Inside
the booth is little shelf upon which
the voter can rest his weary arms while
marking his ticket, an indelible pencil
being suspended over the shelf for that
purpose. Herewith is given a cut of

RESEMBLES A swINDLE.
@. A. Blomquist Can't Find the
Hospital Treatment He Wants.

Yesterday G. A. Blomquist came
down from Moorhead with certificate
in his pocket which he supposed would
enable him to receive treatment in any
one of three hospitals in Minneapolis.
He went to all the hospitals of Mime
apolis named in his certificate, and at
all of them he was told that he had been
swindled. The certificate Blomquist
holds says that the Union Hospital COM
pany, which issued the certificate. is of
Minneapolis and has capital stock of
$4,000. 1t guarantees Blomquist care
during any illness that may occur before
Dec. 81, $780, in ninety-four hospitals in
all the leading cities of the Northwest
as value received for the payment of
SO one year ago. The certificate is
signed by A. 81. Hossmer, s'agent."
The names of the ninety-four hospitals
appear in the back of the certificate.
Blomquist is not the first man who has
appeared at police headquarters with
that sort of certificate. The affair
looks very like swindle, but the police
are not sanguine of catching any one,
as the originatOrS are believed to have
skipped with fully $4,000 profits, most
of it received from laboring men.

legislature and vote AYE" and mo" He
will be a representative who Will work
for his city and constituents. When
the Republicans gerrymandered this
district, which comprises the First and
Third wards, they cut off the territory
west of Third street and provided that
one of the two representatives should
come from that section. This was done
with the hope of giving Republican
what is known in The language of the
classics as a "sure thing" This was
done only in this district, and its pur-
pose was plain; but MIR. Gallagher has
already turned defeat into victory, and
his election is thought to be assured by
conservative estimates.
Mr.. Gallagher was born in La Crosse
county. Wis, thirty years ago and Sc
cured his education in the public schools
at Minneapolis. He was for ten years
travelling man, but later settled down in
Minneapolis. He has a large ac-
quaintance and is very popular with all
who have had the opportunity to learn
of his many sterling traits of character.
Two years ago he was one of the most
active workers in the party for E. M.
Wilson and stumped the state in his be-

candidates for the legislature from the
Twenty-ninth and Thirty-second sen-
atorial districts are exceptions to the
rule putting all of the legislative can
didates upon the county ticket. The
Twenty-ninth district comprises only
the First and Third wards and the
Thirty-second the Fifth and Sixth
wards, SO that these two districts lie

also provides the order in which the
ballots will be counted after the polls

first and the votes for state Office can

box will be opened and the county votes
counted. The red box comes last and
the result on the city ticket will be til 9

opened at o'clock in the morning and
Will close at i'll the evening.
The Australian law provides that if,
in marking his ballot, the voter spells it

cure another. Now, there is some ques-
ton as to what constitutes a spoiled
ballot. City Attorney Russell has con-
suited with Attorney General Clapp on
the subject. and tomorrow evening will
meet the judges of election in the city
hall and will explain to them what con-

for the benefit of the judges, elucidate

j. F. Peterson. his opponent on the Re-
publican ticket, has held the Office
three terms, and there are many in his
own party who do not think he is en-
titled to a life lease upon the Office and
will accordingly cast their vote for Mr..
Heinrich, who is eminently qualified
for the Office, and is certain to manage
Its affairs capably and courteously.
Mr.. Heinrich was born in Prairie du
Chen, Wis. in 1859, and came to Min
neapolis in 1865, and secured his educa-
ton in the public schools and the
Curtiss Business college. For num-
Der of years he held the position of vice

Minneapolis Brewing company, a posi-
ton that has fully demonstrated his
business ability. He is highly respected.
