New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1890-09-03

A railroad corporation attorney ought
to be an easy man.to beat in a race for
the governorship. Such q man is Viii.
son, of Winona, who will in all proba-
bility be the Democratic nominee.
Dunnell has been renominated for
congress by the Republicans of the First
district. Old Mark is hustler, who
never enters fight for fun, and wheth-
er his opponent is a strong man or not,
he will make it decidedly unpleasant
for him. With Wilson out Of the
way, his election is assured by a good
majority.
In the lower house Of Congress last
week, Mr.. Quinn, of New York intro
duced resolution, lnstructing the ju-
dietary committee to report what legis-
lation within the province of the feder-
al government may be proper and nee
essary't to prevent corpo1 ations engaged
in interstate commerce traffic from en-
ploying unjustifably large bodies of
armed men, denominated detectives,
but clothed with no legal functions.
The resolution was intended for the so.
called Pinkerton gang, and is one that
certainly deserves the attention of con-
gress and of every state.
Wisconsin Republicans have as their
standard bearer in the gubernatorial
campaign one of the states best and mob
lest citizens. Wisconsin Democrats
have put up for the same position
funny man by the name of Peck, whose
only reputation comes from writing such
poor productions of wit as Peck's Bad
Boy and the like. Wisconsin Republic
ans have in their platform clause en-.
dorsing the Bennett law, law aimed to
make better citizens. Wisconsin Demo
Gratis also have in their platform
clause on the same law, but it is
clause that asks for its repeal. What
comparison!
The Republicans of Maj. McKinley's
district in Ohio renominated him last
Tuesday with enthusiasm. The district,
which he has represented now for TWEEN
tY years, has been so changed as to give
a Democratic majority, but the Repub-
licans are confident that with great eff
fort they can elect the father of the
Mckinley bill for another term. James
G. Blaine, previous to Mckinley NOM
nation, sent the following message to
the conventions: I trust your convention
will nominate Maj. Mckinley for Con-
gress. He has been true and tried for
twenty years. On many occasions he
has helped the Republicans of Maine.
They want to acknowledge their obliga-
tions and help him by their interest,
their sympathy and friendship.
The Minneapolis journal has the
boldness to say that the election of
Senator Washburn was one of the few
creditable things that emanated from
the last legislature. Had the journal
said that Minneapolis could we'll be
proud of what Washburn had done for
her, it would have simply given express
sion to what everybody believes, but to
says that the record of Senator Wash
burn has been the proudest thing that
the last legislature has to point to, is
rank nonsense that nobody but Min
neapolitan will accept of. Outside of
the Flour City it is considered one of
the poorest things that can be said of
man, that he was member of rep
resentative body that allowed itself to
chose such a man for United States
senator as W. D. Washburn.
The election of Merriam this fall
means the defeat of Senator Davis for
the senate two years hence. Elect a
Merriam man senator this fall and he
will vote for Merriam to succeed Davis
rs sure as he lives to see the sun rise on
that day.-Fairmont News,
The second Of your statements, Bro.
Blaisdell, is all right, but the first is
all wrong. Merriam might be elected
governor dozen times, but his success
in that direction would have nothing
whatever to do with an election to the
senate. The two don't hitch at all.
The senatorship depends altogether on
the makeup of the state legislature
two years from now, and the election
Of Merriam to the governorship has alb
