The meeting of the Democratic state
committee on Tuesday, coming as it
does on the same day as the annual
meeting of the Minnesota Democratic
association, will make this week lively
one in political way in this city. Not
wlthStanding the variety of rubbish that
has been printed in the Republican pa
pers regarding this meeting of the COM
mittee, the fact is that the meeting will
be harmonious in every way. The claim
has been made that ''snap" conven-
zion for the selection of delegates to the
Chicago convention will be called.
This is entirely false. The men,
beers of the committee are not
decided as to the date, and
will not fix it until they have conferred
with the representative members of the
party who are expected to attend from
all parts of the state. wide notice of
the meeting has been given for the very
purpose of securing the attendance of a
large number of the leading Democrats
Of the state.
Owing to the approaching municipal
campaign in this city and desire not to
Interfere with it, there is an apparent
desire that the convention be held either
prior to April l or after the Sd of Nav.
Local politics in st. Paul will
command the attention of the
party here during April, and
for this reason the delegates to Chicago
will be selected either prior to April 1
or after the Democrats of st. Paul have
added another great victory t0 their rec
ord. However this may be settled, it
will be satisfactory to the Democrats of
Minnesota. They will be given abund-
ant time for the election of delegates
to the state convention. In case more
than six weeks notice of the convention
Is demanded, which seems likely, in
view of the dissatisfaction expressed in
New York over the short notice given
there, the committee will probably set
tie upon a date early in May. In some
quarters the opinion is current thai it
would be better to elect the delegation
at that time, which would still be six or
seven weeks previous to the meeting of
the national convention.
The Democracy of Minnesota Will en-
ter upon the coming state campaign
with more harmony than has been
known for some years. and with the
best organization the party has ever
had. During the past year a poll of the
state has been made that will prove in
valuable IN the coming campaign. Here
tOfore the state committees named at the
time OF the state convention have been
obliged to commence the campaigns
without anything in the way of material.
Lists Of the county chairmen, even,
have been lacking, and the first few
weeks of each campaign have had of
necessity to be devoted to gathering
information that should have been on
hand at the beginning. Hereafter things
Will be different, and, scarce though
democrats may be in some OF the coun-
ties OF the state, the state committee
Will know where they are, and be in a
position to call them to the work.
