manifesto ISSUED by the council of
workingmen's party urging the work
ingmen not to go out on strike pending
the decision of the chamber In regard
to the demands being made throughout
Belgium for universal suffrage, 10000

to march in procession through the

doing by the police. The action of the

suited in the end in several riots. during
which the police used their batons freely
and made many arrests.

Two Republican. the Second and Fifth.
One Alliance. the Seventh.
Two doubtful, the First and Sixth.
OF course there is likely to be differ
ence of opinion in regard to several of
these districts. but very brief glance
at the political history of the counties
composing these districts will demon
strate that the classification given above
is fair one. No one can predict the
outcome of tidal wave, but from pres
ent indications the next election will be
a very peaceabe one. The Alliance
will certainly hold the greater part of
its strength, and in the Seventh district
especially is sure to elect its candidate
to congress. The Sixth district is close,
and the result will depend to a large ex-
tent on the labor vote of Duluth and st.
Louis counties. The past history of the
First district proves it to be
politically unsettled. The Fifth
district, Hennepin county,is conceded to
the Republicans, but the Democrats will
