TALKS WITH TRANSMITS.

Ex-Gov. John Miller. of Dwight, North
Dakota, arrived in St. Paul yesterday after
noon on his way home from st. Louis Gov.
Miller was the first chief executive of North
Dakota. and is politician in no sense of the
term and does not care to be considered as
such. The clash of the contending factions
of the North Dakota Republicans secured
him his nomination, and. being frst-class
man and a good Republican, the disap-
pointed candidates like Gen. Harrison Allen
had no reason to do anything except turn in
and support the farmer candidate. One
term. however, satisfied Mr.. Miller, and at its
termination he returned to Dwight and reas-
sumed the management of the big farm of
John w. Dwight.
81 have been away from North Dakota for
some time,' he said last evening. sand for
this reason know nothing about the political
situation am inclined to think that Roger
Allin will be the Republican nominee for
governor this year as there seems to be
feeling that way in many parts of the state.
There is a question as to whether Gov. Burke
will be in the race at ali on account of his
health. The North Dakota people are not
talking politics to any extent at the present
time, and what little there is is confined to
the Democrats.
.Who is the Democratic favorite gov
ernor?'
cleveland, 1 should say" was the re-
Spouse. II notice Cass county declared
| strongly for him yesterday. and L have no
doubt that the delegation will go to Chicago

il
| William Irvine. of Chippewa Falls dined
| at the Merchants yesterday and spent the
afternoon attending to business matters. Mr.
Irviue is the Chippewa Falls manager of the
| Weyerhauser syndicate and is one of the
members of that great company.
i
Ex-Congressman D. s. Hall. of the Chippe-
| wa Indian commission, returned to the Indi-
| all country last evening.
j
P j. Kniss the we'll known real estate man
| of Lu Verne, is at the Merchants. Mr.. Kniss
| reports that large numbers of new settlers
| are pouring into the southwestern counties
and particularly Rock county. 1.-THE prices
at which farm lands are being sold,' he said,
| "show that the remarkable fertility of our
| county is appreciated. At this rate our popu-
| lation will double in two years.
II. s. Abeles, of st. Cloud, is a guest of the
| Ryan.
F. s. Campbell, of West Superior, is stop
| ping at the Windsor.
| Darlington Phelps, of Stevens county. the
| chairman of the Alliance state central COM
| mttee two years ago, is at the Merchants.
II
| Some of the leading st. Paul Democrats
| will readily call to mind L. G. Dillman, the
! Spokane Falls real estate and mine owner,
| who spent several weeks in St. Paul last
| fall, and who surprised them all by his posi-
! ton on the silver question and the argu-
ments he advanced against the passage of a
! free coinage bill. Al that time Mr.. Dillman
| was spending a good part of each day in
| close communion with President j. j Hill,
| Of the Great Northern, doing his utmost to
| persuade Mr.. Hill that the Great Northern
| could not afford to pass by Spokane
! and reach that live city only by q
| branch. This trip evidently proved entirely
| successful as the Great Northern is build
| ing into Spokane. aud the citizens are Civ
! ing MIR. Dillman no small share of the credit.
1 He is now being doomed for mayor at the
! coming city election and the leading Repub-
| lican paper of the city admits that in case Of
mis- nomination by the Democrats no one
| can defeat Mr.. Dillman.
| Il do not know whether Mr.. Diliman
| would accept a nomination for mayor said
Stanley Miller, of Spokane, at the Mer-
| chants last evening, ION account OF his bus
| 1ness which is just now booming al more
1 lively rate than ever. He is a hustler in
/ every sense of the term. and has done a
| great deal for Spokane. He worked very
| hard to get the Great Northern, and was
largely instrumental in securing it,
