HOTEL CHATS.

Editor Granville S. Pease, OF the Anoka
Union, dropped into the city yesterday, and
spent portion of the afternoon chatting on
political subjects with friends he CHANGED to
meet Editor Pease at present is commander
in-ehief of the MeGill forces in the state, and
confidently predicts that the Republican
nominee for governor in Minnesota next
year will be none other than the ex-gov-
ernor The columns of the Union have been
saying all sorts of nice things about Mr.. Nc
Gill, and short conversation with Editor
Pease is all that is necessary to convince any
one that he is in earnest.
If the Republican convention is q big one,
with 1.50O or 1000 delegates, McGill will be
nominated said the Anoka editor in the
course of little talk on the situation.
MANY Republicans feel that the party owes
Gov. McGill something, and if there is a large
convention this feeling win early the nomi-
nation to him.
rs there any likelihood Of a convention
such as you mention being called:'
Yes. sir; there is responded Mr.. Pease.
ut will be good change for the party and
will go great way toward winning the bat
tie for u.s.
do the McGill men feel afraid of the dele
gates from the Twin Cities:"
Not q Bit" said Mr.. Pease. Ramsey
county might be carried for Nelson if Gov
Merriam decides that he wants him nomi-
mated; but there is no danger of Knute Mel
son getting the Hennepin county delegates.
They will be for McGill rather than for Mel
son any time''
Mr.. Pease thinks there is great deal in the
cry for justice for McGill and said there
were many men outside the Republican
! party in Anoka county ready to vote for Nc
| GIL IN case he IS the nominee next year.
This advocacy of the ex-governor for gov
| ernor has made the Anoka Union rather an
antl-administration organ, but the break can
| hardly be called serious, for when the
campaigns open "Old Pease'' forgets
all about kicking and falls into line.
He has done this so many times that it is
| only reasonable to expect him to do so again
Butatter all, there are few more independent
papers in the state than the Anoka Union,
and no county papers that are more prosper
Gus and better managed. Editor Pease knows
his business and attends to ii, and finds
| time to have good time besides.

Just at present Editor Pease is amusing
himself by poking HeatWole, of the North
| field News, between the ribs The little diff
| Guilty commenced by Mr.. Pease giving Joel a
| real hard thrust at the start when he should
have commenced easily and gradually,
worked up to the point at which the North
| field man became wrathy. Editor HeatWole
Is ambitious politically and is trying new
method of getting to the front. He keeps
crying out that he is out of politics, and pre-
tends to be offended when any brother ed
itor punctures this role. The way the Pease-
Heatwole war commenced, however is as
amusing as it is ridiculous. Editor Pease
printed an imaginary account of little
scene in the NOrthfeld editors household in
which the political situation was discussed
and the portly Joel's chances considered
When this paper reached Mortified, Mr.
Heatwole refused to see the joke, and
promptly cut Brother Pease off his exchange
list and the merry war" commenced, which
is still on.

C. A. Lindbergh. the prosecuting attorney
of Morrison county, came down from Little
Falls yesterday to look after some cases be-
fore the supreme court in which he is inter-
ested. Mr.. Lindbergh is one of the two or
three Republicans who came out ahead III
last years fight in Morrison county, and is
decidedly popular in that Democratic strong
hold.
Samuel Disstou of the great firm of saw
manufacturers of Philadelphia, Henry Diss-
toms Sons is at the Ryan with his wife and
daughter Miss Nettie Disston Mr. Disston

results Of the elections.
