army rifle and gunny sack slung over
his shoulder, he was seen making a
rush for the Duluth train yesterday.
Going by the Merchants, one of his nu-
merous friends called out:
"HelIo, Dick, where to?"
With few nervous twitcheS first at
one side of his mustache ard then the
other, he replied: "Well, you see, the
chicken season commences in few
days, and during the last campaign |
made great many promises. Among
them was one that | would attend the
convention of long-tailed grouse to be
held in the fall at Campbell, and
as | am On but one of their
tickets and am sure to be elected
a delegate, thought l would take in
sure thing instead of being caught be-
tween the Inns and Outs" With sly
wink, another nervous twitch at both
ends of that mustache, land he was gone.
Six candidates tor county commits
siOnerS are to be named by Saturdays
convention, and, outside of the contest
for county attorney, this will be the
hardest thing the convention will have
to settle. Peter DAILY, popular Dem
ocrat of the Sixth ward, who has up
held the banners of Democracy
in season and out of season,
in the Red river counties
of Minnesota as well as in the Republic
can stronghold of North Dakota. has an
announced himself as candidate for
place on the county board. Should he
receive the nomination, the county will
secure an excellent official, and the
Sixth ward sturdy representative of
her interests. The venerable and pop
ular George Mitsch, will, of course,
be renominated if he will accept, as
will also Charles Liedman, Peter Boh-
land, and several others of the present
board. NJ. j. Days friends are Skin
mishing for him and Henry Athey is
also being strongly backed. John A.
Tierney is also mentioned as being will
ing to accept place on the ticket.
All of these gentlemen are worthy OF
the honor, and if nominated and elected
the affairs of the county would be per-
feetly safe in their hands.
No change is to be chronicled in the
matter of the three district judgeships.
The Democrats are quite willing to do
their share toward making the Ramsey
county bench non-partisan. They only
insist that Judge Wilkin, a Dem
member of that party. In case the
will lie Endorsed, and in Ito other event.
Whether this will strike the peanut
politicians who are now In such
absolute control of the local Re-
publican organization favOrably
remains to be seen, but there seems to
be some doubt that even the ''kidS" will
consent to proposition as fair as this.
County Attorney j, j. Egan seems to
have no opposition for the nomination
to succeed Judge Wilkin, although John
w. Willis has been mentioned as desir-
Gus of the nomination.
John B. Olivier and P. ". Locke, two
veteran and popular Democrats, seem
to he the only ones mentioned for Judge
of probate. Either one is well qualified
to fill the office and make things de-
cidedly interesting for the Republican
nominee.
Every Democrat should turn out at
the primaries this evening.
A large vote at the primaries will
show your interest i'll the party Demo-
Gratis should remember.
No Democrat can afford to be luke
warm this year when success is i'll the
air. On the sixth page of this paper

and there will be no excuse for those
who fail to vote this evening.
"Where do | vote?' is question that
