THE PASSING SHOW,

Congressman j. n. Castle. of this district
dropped into the Merchants lobby yesterday
and spent some time chatting with friends
and acquaintance. He will not start for
Washington for at least d week or ten DAYS.
and Will thus escape the bother and annoy
ance incident to a contest as lively as is the
present one for the Democratic caucus nom
lnation for speaker of the house of repre-
sentatives. Mr. Castle is inclined to keen
very still in regard to his choice of man for
speaker and declares that he will not make
up his mind whom TO vote for in the caucus
before he reaches Washington and scans the
field
Il do not know whom 1 shall vote for yet,
he said in answer to a question. There are a
number of splendid men in the race auv one.
of whom would make fine presiding officer.
But | am not pledged, and do not propose to
promise any one until / have a chance to
study the situation. / shall vote in the way
that appears to me will best subserve the in
terests of the Democratic party. / appreciate
Mr. Mills pluck and prudence He is a man
of good sense and great ability. Congress.
man Crisp, of Georgia, is a grand man. and
there is no discounting such men as Bynum.
of Indiana, and Wilson, of West Virginia. 1
admire Congressman Springer. of Illinois,
very much, and feel that there are great
many points to be urged in his favor He is
Northern man, and in this congress 147
Democratic members are from the North
and only % from the South. But there
are 50 many things to be considered In
settling this matter that feel that great care
should be taken. The work of the present
congress will have very great effect on the
national campaign of next year. and we want
to make no mistakes"

Wisconsin and Minnesota. This is not cor
rect, then2''
Il do not know so much about Wisconsin.
but L know Minnesota is not solid for Mr..
Mills" responded the Saltwater statesman.
'Of course we may all vote for him when the
time comes. but the last time ! talked with
Capt. Harries, of the First district he felt
just as do about the matter. If, after look
ing into the matter, find that it will be best
to elect MIR. Mills shall be proud TO vote for
him.
What do you know Of the situation in
Wisconsin"
i an acquainted with a number of the
members from Wisconsin, answered MIR
Castle, but have seen none of them lately
but had talk with ex-Mayor Shaw, of Eau
Claire, day or two ago, and he told me that
he was of the opinion that Springer might
get the Badger state delegation OF course,
don't know his authority for the statement,
but he seemed quite positive that the hand
some illinois member had supporters in the
delegation from his state. and suppose he
has talked with some of them about it."

Chairman Joel P Heatwole, of Northfe ID.
dropped work on his farm yesterday and
came to st. Paul. On reaching the CITY he
went at once to the state capitol aud was
closeted for several hours with Secretary
TamS Bixby. When this conference broke
up Editor Heatwole announced that he had
instructed Secretary Bixby to call a meeting
OF the Republican state committee for Mon
day, Dec. z, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
The portlv head of the Republican state or
ganization declined to state why this meet
ing had been called so soon after the an
nouncement had gone forth that no meeting
would be held for some time Pressed for an
answer, MIR. Heatwole said:
Il do not know of ANYTHING except routine
business -
1t is, however, very likely that the scope of
routine business will have 10 be enlarged
very considerably if it includes all that will
be brought up at this meeting. John Good
now, OF Minneapolis. as president of that
semi-detunct organization, the Republican
state league, has been meeting with little en-
couragement in bis efforts to organize clubs
ana has been carrying on lively correspond
ence with Chairman Heatwoie He will
probably bling this matter of organization up
and insist upon some action by the commit
tee. The routine business" mentioned by
Mr.. Heatwole will be the auditing and set

Representatives II. c. Bull, of Wright
county, and Joseph Roach, of Rice. were in
the city for few hours yesterday on their
way to Chicago to see the fat stock show
Representative Roach is an enthusiast on
the stock question, and would sooner miss
almost anything rather than an exhibition
of good stock. With Mr.. Bull the word of his
FREUD Roach is accepted as the truth pure
and undefled, and when the Mortified
statesman said that he ought to go to the Chi
cago show he made up his mind that it was
necessary. The two lawmakers lett for ahe
