In an elaborate write-up of Congress-
man Dunnell'S hard contest in the Fist
district in last evenings Dispatch a
little of the history of First district pol
iiicS was giveu-incOrrect a. usual. The
most glaring misstatement was con-
tained in its mention of Congressman
DunnelfS ''redeeming" the district in
1888 by cover 5000 majority" AS a
matter of fact the records show that Mr..
Dnnntll had exactly l,S44 more votes
than Judge Wilson. while the district
gave over 1000 maturity for President
Harrison. If there's any glory i'll this
for Mr.. Dunnell he ought to be accorded
ii without kick, but where does it
come in?
Some years ago. said this organ, lowing
to disaffection in The ranks of the First dis
trict Republicans, Mr.. Dunrell was defeated
for a denomination. The breach in The party
finally eliminated i'll the election of I homas
Wilson to congress-
This is a plain statement of fact, but
again the organ fails to tell the whole
truth. 1t does not say that MIR. Dun
neil's arrogant and disreputable rule of
many years had Disguised such promi-
nent Republicans as Auditor Bra
den, Milo White, Judge Farmer
and host of others, aud that his
defeat was demanded by the better ele-
man Dunnrli tall into line for the par
tvs candidates in the district after
wards? Not at all. He was largely re-
sponsibe for Hon. Milo Whites close
run in 1884, and more than any other
man to blame for the defeat of John A.
Lovely in 1888.
MI. Dunnell is only good Republican
when he is himself candidate for Of
fee.
The friends of John A. Lovely and
Milo White should remember Mr.. Dun
nell week from Tuesday.
Faithful representatives" is the way
an Eastern dispatch speaks of Mime
aOta'S five congressman in dispatch
published in local Republican organ.
/ his is elniDently proper. There is no
doubt that they were ''faithful" to the
East. but it would be far better for
them if the people of the West could
speak of them i'll the sane terms. The
faithfuineSs of Messrs. Dunnell. Lind,
Hall. Snider and ComStock to their
Eastern masters has been much COM
mented on in the last year.
~ An Iowa friend of the GLOBE sends
i'll the following cauStic letter ilarrating

How many judges of election do the

Congressman Oar 5. Hall and Ere
W. Sumner, of Mcleod, spent yesterua
hobnobbing around the Merchants
Mr.. Sumner represented Mcleod
county in the last legislature. and
again the Republican candidate for Iha
position in-hlS county. He is Il yer
slick" politician, and is SAID to b
handling Congressman Halls stuff

exactly reasSuring to Capt. y. IL. Reef
the Republican nominee for state sen;
tor III Mcleod, nut the gdilanC captal
must remember that he made kick o
the little combination which nominate
Mr. Hall by trick at Red Wing tw
years ago. when he had the cali G
the nomination. Congressman Ha

and if there is one man in the state the
desire to lay on the shelf aboI
all others that man is Cap
Reed, and there is little chanc
of any of the Doodle sent to NJ
Hall by the millionaire manufacture
OF the East ever reaching the captain

The workers IN old Mcleod shoul
see Mr.. Sumner as soon as he returns
Hutchinson. He has supply of tt

equitably distributed. Silver Lake an
Bergen ought not to be given more tia
their prODt share.
