For Mayor of Minneapolis.

As it looks now non partisan judici-
ry ticket will be agreed upon. No
more attempts at compromise will be
made by the Republican and Demo-
cratic committees from Hennepin
county. None afe necessary. The
Democratic judicial convention has
been called for Oct. s, the same date as
that set for the Republican con-
vention. All parts of the dis
trict will be there represented.
that is the place TO make up non-parti-
san ticket. There is no doubt but that
majority of both parties favor such a
ticket; hence, there seems little reason
to doubt that this perpleXing muddle,
which has strained the patience of the
public quite extensively, will be AMIGA
bly, settled. A GLOBE reporter called
upon eX-GOv. John S. PillSbury last
evening to learn, if possible, how
the Republican committee feels on the
with none of his committee since the
famous conference but he was not
averse to expressing his own senti-
mentS.
IL want to see," said he, "good men
On the bench. l think the judiciary
ticket should be made non-partisan.
Personally, i don't care if all the judges
are Dem cfats. AS representative of
the Republican party feel constrained
to work for Republicans. if they are
good men. No matter to what party
they belong, must insist that the best
men are put up. Our committee, after
that conference the other day, felt that
they had not been treated quite
as courteonsly as they should have
been. We had no desire to force any

Mr.. Brooks name because we under
stood that he was the second choice Of
the Democratic committee. We would
have accepted any good man whom
they might have proposed. Then, too,
want to say that Judge KOon and the
whole of our committee were done a
great injustice when it was said that we
opposed Mr.. CAVITY because of his oppo-
sltiOn to the street railway company
MIR. Lowry has no more interest than
you or |, or any other good citizen who
is liable to go before the court. Per
sonally, | want to see the best man put
upon the ticket.
Il don't know whether our conven-
ton will now compromise or not. Per-
Sonally. L would work for the indorSe.
ment of any good Democrat and good
lawyer like Shores, or Brooks, or DaV-
| export or John Atwater. Judge Smith
l have known Intimately for over thirty
| years, aud would like to see him put
upon the ticket. Some feeling against
| him was aroused among the members
| of our committee by the understanding
which came to US pretty straight, that
| he was doing all in his power to secure
the nomination for CAVITY. l am GLAD
| to have found out that he took no part

MIR. Pillsbury probably voices the
sentiments of majority of the Repub
! lican committee. 1t seems likely that &
| non-partiSan ticket will yet be reality
-
| Some people seem to have gathered
| the impression that A. T. Ankeny die
not have much strength in the Demo
cratic committee, and that his candidacy
did not amount to anything. i
| so, the impression is erroneous
When the Democratic committee
| on the day of the conference, balloteC
for substitute for CAVITY provided the
| Republicans would witehraw the name
| of either Hooker or Young, the vote
| stood IL to z in favor of Ankeny, He i:
| to-day stronger candidate than lie wa:
then. Mr.. Ankeny is eminently maj
| of judicial temperament, good judg
ment and justice, upon which all law i:
founded. On the score of serv
ice in the interest of til,
party and good, sound, consisten
| Democracy, no man in Minneapolis de
serves recognition more than Mr.. An
keny. He has been a Democrat in and
out of season. In hard work for til,
! party, no man stands above him. Tha
he was not the first choice of the Demo
