That there is hen on the demo
cratic nest Is very apparent to any
one who has been watching the poul-
try yard, 1t matters not what other
hen desires TO ses. she cannot find a
nest that is not already preempted by
the 'Old biody" of the coop, and it ls
evident that the old hen now on the
nest does not intend that any other
brood shall be Matched out this sea-
500 except her. own. A sufficient
number of the counties of the state
have already held their conven tions
to afford an idea of the way things
are shaping themselves, aud there is
no doubt that they are shaping to.
ward the denomination of Hogg, lire.
spective of the opinions or the wishes
of the democratic voters of the state.
1t will be noted that in every county
instructed for Clark, there is another
meeting called, another set of dele.
gates chosen, and there will be con-
test in every one of these cases. The
object of this is apparent. If Hogg
camille up all the Clark delegations,
and thereby prevent them participat-
Ing in the preliminary organization of
the Houston convention, he has In
his own hands the admission or re-
lection of these contesting delega-
tions. 1t will then be only question
of how many of these it will be neces.
sary to exclude in order to prevent an
vote, to settle the exclusion
of the requisite number, and Hogg's
is secured. See how
matters are today in Houston?
That county is for Clark three to
one, judging by the vote in
tue countyconvention. All the same
there is q contest in that county, and
the delegation for Clark, representing
the democrats of the county, can
cool their heels In the anteroom while
the HOggites inside pass OH their
right to q seat. Here, in Bexar
county, where 1t is we'll known that
at least three out of every four demo.
Gratis are in favor of George Clark,
the machine does Its Hoggish work,
the will of the party is denied an ex-
preston and the "brass collar" is on
the neck OF the county. These are
but samples of how the thing works.
AS it is in Harris aud In ~Bexar so is it
IN scores of other counties, and the
brass collar is showed over the heads
OF the machine msnipulators aud the
traces are stretched TOR Hogg. There
is no doubt that the delegates in
structed for Clark will be sufficient to
prevent Hogg's denomination, were
they allowed voice in the conven-
ton, but they will be shut out on the
ground of irregularity, shut out by
Hogg's committee on creden tials.
Then, when the iniquity is consum-
mated and the denomination of Hogg
is accomplished, the "orass collar"
will be on the neck of the state demo-
cracy, and who can take it of? Will
the collar be worn with scowls and
curses, or will the victims rise in
their righteous wrath and bolt the
as the child of fraud by
the usurpation of party right?

MILE SKATING RECORD.
Attempt to BE Made This Week to
Beat 1t.

The ST. Paul Skating association has
decided to offer another medal to repre-
sent the one mile championship for Min
nesota for the fastest time at that dis
lance. Considerably rivaly has been
stirred up among the local skaters,
Bird and Davidson. of st. Paul, and
Johnson, of Minneapolis, especially,
and since the last one-mle affair, which
was skated on New Years day, the
record has been claimed by all three,
VINO have at other times done better.
In order to settle all dispute on the sub
ject the association has arranged for
three dates in order to accommodate
all. The following are the condi-
tonS: Entrance free and open TO
all amateurs of Minnesota, contestants
to skate in single heats, with the priv
ilege of two pacemakers-and each COM
petitor allowed one trial upon each date,
as follows: Jan. II, 8 p. M; Jan. 20,
$3.50 p. M; Jan. "a, 8 p. m, and TO be
Skated at the Junior Pioneer rink, the
headquarters of the association. The
entry list is to be open up to the time of
commencing on each date. The first
trials this afternoon will be watched
with interest, as Davidson claims mile
i'll 1920 on small rink, AMI his ability
to repeat the performance is doubted by
some. Others who will probably COM
pete today are Marty, Pannell, Scheibe
and Martin. The first and last named
skated a mile in 3:2S1@ on one evening
of the last week, and they will probably
come close to the fastest time. The
Normanna Club of Minneapolis is eX-
pected to send number of men over.

received from Coal Creek. a man just
in from Keathly on a late train
says the miners to the num-
Der of 1000 are assembling on
the mountain overlooking the soldiers
camp with view of making an attack.
At 1880 a telegraph operator i'll the
camp telegraphed that many miners
were maSSing on the mountain and that
there had been some firing by the
pickets. The miners were doing good
deal of shooting, but at that time no
one had been hurt.
The camp was in much confusion eX-
pecting an attack, but the men were in
good trim to hold the fort at all costs.
The operator then said he would inves-
tigate and report. but at 1850 nothing
further bad been heard from him. To
day was payday at Coal Creek and some
persons had been predicting trouble.
A number OF miners from BloctOn,
Ala, went to Coal Creek last night and
this morning one of them, vino was
drinking, said they were going out
there to ''clean up the militia.
At this hour11l :55) the wires seem to
be up and working. Something definite
IS expected every moment. The fact
that the wires have not been cut is con-
Strued to mean no trouble, and what
firing has taken place by the miners is
simply for a demonstration TO harraSS
the troops. Should the wires be cut 1t
may be taken for granted that there is
trouble

The season at Hot Springs, Ark, win
soon be open and Americas noted health
resort will once more assume its usual

To those who go. either for health OF
pleasure, word of advice at this time
is not out of order. 1t is we'll known to
most of us that unless we start right we
will be beset by troubles which seem
inevitably to follow a bad beginning.
All this can be avoided by selecting a
line for the journey whose reputation
for caring for the comfort OF its patrons
is matter of record.

MANUFACTURING SITES.

We have for sale a tract Of
about Is acres of land midway
between st. Paul and Mime
apolis, which is perhaps the
best site for factories in either
city. 1t has a spur track run
ming through it, connecting it
with all the railroads running
into either city, except one,
and also with the Mime
sofa Transfer. 1t is one Of the
few tracts left in the Midway Dis
trict, accessible to good railroad
trackage, large enough to accom-
modate large manufacturing con-
Germ, and is therefore very valua-
BILE. The Midway District. trav-
ersed in every direction by railroads
and electric lines. and drawing
population and business from both
cities, is rapidly filling up, and a
few years will see property there
quadrupled in value. 1t is bound
in the near future to become the
great center OF population of our
dual city. and the owners of land
there will be wealthy. We can sell
this fine property very cheap.

DIED IN THE FLAMES.
Two Workmen Perish in New
York Fire

FGriSn IN a New
York Fire.
NEW YORK. Jan. TO- E. N. Van Tas-
sells big grain elevator and warehouse.
corner of Thirteenth avenue and West
Eleventh street, was destroyed by fire
this morning, together with the old
stables of the Knickerbocker Ice COM
pany, on Bank street, involving loss
of about 100000. 1t is known that two
Workmen persisted in the flames, and it
is feared that others lost their lives.
Henry kopp, carpenter. was burned
TO death on the top floor; John Kinsley.
also carpenter, is missing, and is SUD-
posed to have been burned.
When the fire was discovered six men
were at work on he top floor of the ele-
vator. and the first warning they had
was when thick clouds Of smoke poured
In upon them. They made a rush to
escape by wav OF the stairs. Two of
them, Martin Weihert and John Guense-
leir, tumbled headlong down the fourth
story and made for the windows on the
Eleventh street side. There was rome
attached to one of the windows. and
down this they slid to the street. An
other of the men, Henry Spittlar,
climbed down wire cable attached to
the grain shute to telegraph pole. and
thus reached the street. He was pros
trated by smoke. and removed TO st.
Vincent's hospital. Henry Kopp fell
back, overcome by smoke, and persisted
in the flames. John Kinsley. another
of the carpenters. is also supposed to
have been burned to death. All Others
IN the building it is believed made their
escape.
The mill was started only last week.
and there were $4,000 bushels of oats
and 10000 bags of wheat. bran and flax
seed on hand. At Las the entire block
on Thirteenth avenue from West
Eleventh street to Bank street. and eX-
tending 100 feet back in the block, was
mass of flames, which shot high into
the air and sent clouds of smoke rolling
over the city.
