St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1892-06-20

Strong, though General Passenger
Agent Kenyon was on hand to see 10
the material and creature comforts of
his passengers, and Supt. ID. Cunning
ham cared for the general equipment.
Delegate c. NJ. Foote, of Minneapolis,
was elected by tacit consent to head the
party, and see that q due observance
of the Sabbath day was made
III every ear. Though not included in
his official duties. he also made 1t his
business to deliver a reSOunding Cleve-
land speech in every car, rounding II
out with the assertion that the nominee
would be good enough for the palate OF
any good Democrat. Outside OF this
forensic effort politics were tabooed,
and there were far too rev
delegates aboard to think of any
organization, although by common con-
sent those members of the delegation
who choose routes other than the Bur
lingtOn forfeit their good standing and
their places on the committee accord
ingly.
4 slate was fixed, with the nnder-
standing that it would not go further
than the columns of the GLOBE. 1t IS
as follows: Chairman, Henry X.
Wells; member of the national
committee, G. NJ. Foote; creden-
tials, Titus Mareck; rules and order
of business, c. j. Haynes; platform,
Alex Mckinnon. The other members
of the committees were generously left
to the balance of the delegation TO be
filled at Chicago. This little business
over. (the meeting had been held IN
Mr.. Kenyon's private carr the party de-
voted itself to individual pleasures
generally breaking into little Bible
class parties of four and five. The trip
was uneventful. At WinOna, Mayor
John Ludwig headed small party or
CleyelanderS, and at La Crosse Judge
Henry K. Wells put in an appearance,
making the fifth delegate.
The train was ably handled, ana no
detail was left uncared for. We arrived
here on schedule time, and. barring &C
cidentS, will arrive at Chicago at $3.50,
just in time to be too late for whatever
events of the day may be recorded IN
the Convention city. A roster OF the
Burlington party is appended:

Mai. A. L. Sackett, of ST. Peter: Louis
Frederickson, of Minneapolis; j. ID.
AIorl-hoD, of Iuch fritU and l. ID
Shelley, of Montgomery. Outside the
delegates and alternateS there was a
crowd of representative Democrats from
the Twin Cities, as well as the state at
large. Il. j. Buxton, Senator Lon Phil
lips, Park Commissioner Jacob StOft,
AID. F. G. Barrows, Bernard ClUutier
and Matt Gallagher represented Minnie
apolis. Aid. Barrows felt little out of
place among all these Democrats. but
didn't feel sufficiently Enthusiastic to
debate the question with the Democrats.
Dr. Werner Hemsted. OF Brainerd, was
one Of the quiet members Of the party,
but there was life enough in the
St. Paul crowd to make, up for
this. Some of the st: Paulites
are ". G. White, W. A. Failins, +. B.
Saxon. James Carmay, II. A. Davis,
E. ". Murphy. F.. Lewis, A. H, Smith,

high, if rather antique, hat that he had
worn through the campaigns of 1884 and
1883. With him came Aid. John Bent
ner, Mr.. Haynes alternate. A. W. jack
son, E. K. TaIKell, John Gay and A. w.
