CORRIDOR CHATS.

Inc NOrlH IdkOld COiOllN Ut bHt hSI-
chants was largely reinforced yeSter-
day, and Col Well could easily call to-
gether Il quorum of the late lamented
North Dakota legislature if he were
so minded. Yesterdays arrivals were
Senator c. B. Little, of Bismarck; State
Auditor John =. Bray, formerly of
Grand Forks; Hon. Il. \. Stevens, men,
der of the house from Ransom county,
and &. c. Bostield, editor of the Ellen
dale Commercial. and clerk of the North
Dakota senate during the last session.
Last evening Auditor Bray and Senator
and Mrs. NJ. l.. Mccormack departed for
the Hot Springs, leaving Col. Edwards,
Senator ,lud La Moure, Alex Mckenzie,
Senator Little and the remainder of the
company to hold down the interests of
North Dakota in st. Paul.
Senator c. b. Little. of Bsmarck,who
is, bv the way, one of the ShrewdeSt and
brightest politicians in the state, talked
interestingly of men and affairs in that
commonwealth. This cry of deStltu-
tion in North Dakota has damaged us
terribly and was altogether unneces-
sary. am certain that there are not
over two or three localities in the entire
state where the local authorities could
not have cared for those in want. AS it
usually happens, this cry was raised and
worked by those who wanted to make
something out of il for themselves. No
CRY for aid has come up in my county
and none will. Our people are rather
poor, but they are able to take care of
themselves, and they're going to do it,
too. Gov. Miller's action in this matter
was Sickening, to say the least"
"Well, senator, will the governor and
his friends be able to read you out Of
the partyn asked the reporter. 81 un-
derStand you voted for the lottery"
"Well, of course ] can't say for GER
TAIN was the reply. but | think they
have a pretty big contract on hand.
About two-thirds of both houses are
with US, and we're all Republicans.
Since Miller became governor he has
consulted none of his friends and sup
porters in regard to anything, but has
gone to those who kicked on the ticket
year ago. We gave Miller large ma
Jority in Burleigh county year ago,
but he has made four appointments
right in the county without consulting
the men who gave him his majority"
Senator La MOure wasn't feeling well
yesterday, but he did glance out of the
was going off in a manner that augured
well for good crop in Pembina and
Cavalier counties-from which he halls.
1--WE have had great deal of snow in
that portion of the state" he remarked,
land melting off slowly, as it is, may
produce enough moisture to start the
crops well. Ii we have another poor
crop" he added grimly, ''wo'll need
two lotteries"
Representative r. n. Stevens, of
Ransom county, who, like Hon. A. s.
CrOsSfield. of Minnesota, at the last
session of the Minnesota legislature,
lost an important railroad bill at crit
ical moment, was another stalWart Re-
publican who voted for the lottery, but
is now for harmony. Mr.. Stevens will
spend some time in st. Paul on account
OF i'll health.
Senator Peter Nelson, Of Red Wing,
spent yesterday at the Merchants. Mr..
Nelson's many friends will be glad to
learn that he is almost entirely recov-
cred from his illness, and is looking
quite himself again. Speaking of pol
iticS, he said: with the right kind of
a candidate for governor this fall, | am
sure the Democrats will win. But we
must have a good candidate--a man
who can pull heavy vote in st. Paul
and Minneapolis, and at the same time
gain among the farmers"
Hon. T. w. Hoyt, of Red Wing, at
tended the meeting of the Reform school
trustees at the Merchants yesterday.
