Judge Thomas Wilson came uD from
his Winona home last evening for the
purpose of attending to some legal bust
ness i'll the United States court to-day.
Mr.. Wilson is not, as rule, inclined to
talk politics to any one, and least of
ali to newspaper man; but when
asked about Capt. Harries, the Demo-
cratic nominee for congress in the First
district. he could not refrain from eX-
pressing his warm admiration for him
as a man and Democrat.
mo one can possibly find any objec-
ton to Capt. Harries," said the judge.
HE is fine man, as true as steel, and
entitled to the support of every Demo
crat and tariff-reformer in the district.
His army record will help him among
the old soldiers, and l confidently eX
ddate who will grow in the esti-
nation of the voters from the
day he commences his campaign until
the polls close. He has always been
hard worker for his party, and will I'M
doubtedly be given the most enthusiastic
support of all Democrats and tariff re-
formers in every COUNTY in the dis
trict."
In speaking of the condition of the
Democratic organization in the First
district the judge paid it high tribute,
saying that the Democrats in that sec
ton of the state were all alert to the
Importance of good organization, and
that III OlmSted and Steele counties. eS-
Decially, the organizations had reached
high degree of perfection. The con-
slant growth of the party from among
the best element of the opposition, he
said, was encouraging. Mr.. Wilson was
feeling his best last evening. and, while
he made no predictions, it is easy to
see that he entertainS the same views
as to the outcome of the coming cam
paign, in both the state and nation, as
the vast majority of the Democratic
legions OF the country.
State Senator Henry Keller is one of
the busiest men in Minnesota. Between
politics, electricity, binding twIne. pat
entS, banking. merchandising, manu-
featuring, dealing in farm products. he
is kept constantly on the 90. MIR. Kel-
Ter is both rustler and a rusher. His
beat extends from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, and he is travelling backward
and forwards all the time. He is one of
those ubiquitous fellows who is likely
turn up in New York one day,
in Washington the next, ard
when heard from again he is
in Chicago, or st. Paul, or Denver, or
San Francisco, just according to cir
cumStanceS and the numerous deman DIS
upon his time. Mr.. Keller stopped once
in st. Paul yesterday, just long enough
for GLOBE man to catch him on the
wing and ask him if he would be
candidate for state senator from the
StearnS county district this year. 81 am
tnO hucV with INV hipdinr txUipn no tantc
to talk politics." replied the senator
with gracious smile. Here l am on
my way to Chicago in company with
MIR. Ellis to perfect our arrangements
for fixing our binders. We are going to
make a success of it. [ have been
offered a good big sum of money for my
patent, but | decline to sell out to a mo-
nopoly. l hope to make some money
out of it, yet want my farmer friends to
have share of the profits" Then the
senator paused for a moment, as if care
fully considering the question. and then
resumed: well, guess you may say
expect to be with the boys in the legis-
lature next winter again. The Demo-
cratic convention will be held at st.
Cloud the Sth of this month,
and [ hope to be honored
with a nomination. l know the
people of my district are satisfied with
my legislative work and are anxious
that l shall be returned. ugot every
thing for them that they wanted from
the legislature, including the appropria-
ton for building the reformatory at st.
Cloud. There is large German ele-
ment in my district, and my nationality
ought to be respected. | have always
been elected when a candidate, and |

elected this time. l am Democrat,
have voted with the Democrats, and
| can see no reason why the Democrats
should not honor me with their nomina-
ton. But here it is train time, and |
| must be Off" And the next moment
the frank-spoken and electromagnetic
| fellow senator from Stearns was max
ing blue streak toward the union
depot.
