SAUCE FOR SUNDAY.

WIN the aDllltY ana experience OF Nelly.
the sagacity and persistence of Rodger, the
legal acumen, training and forensic power OF
Ives, Dodd and Walsh. the legislative knowl-
edge and hustling qualities of Nilsson. the
diplomacy of Dr. Williams. the Ramsey
co inty delegation in the coming legislature
can be relied upon to stand more than an
equal show with any other delegation for
securing legislation for the needs and benefit
OF their constituents. Neither Dodd, Walsh
or Williams are worrying at all over the
bluff contests which have been inaugurated
against them.

Many enthusiastic and quietly joyful Dem
ocrats have been wondering ever since cleo
ton if the Ramsey county Democracy would
think enough of its victory TO hold a ratifica
ton meeting. The successful candidates
have not seemed TO take any interest in the
matter, and. as usual, the workers for good
government and glory have taken hold of
the matter. President Matt Egan has called
a meeting of the Second Ward club for next
Saturday evening. The Eighth Ward club
will be called together Friday evening for
the same purpose, and the Sixth warders are
understood to De in line with the project.
Different nights will be selected, and the
club members will interchange visits. The
meetings by some Of the hustlers who
worked TOR the whole ticket through thick
and thin.

David Ramaley on behalf of the news
paper proprietors. and Cornelius Quincy, on
behalf of the printers have added a new
laurel to the theory and practice of arbitra-
ton by coming to an amicable agreement,
| without any fuss or noise on the question of
COMPENSATION for operators of typesetting
machines. 1t is believed the scale agreed on
| will be mutually satisfactory for the period
| agreed upon, and will prove a splendid
| basis for future and permanent action.

With the exception of the contest for the
| position of assistant to County Attorney But
Ter, little or no interest is being taken in the
| question of who will be the occupants of
| places in the city and county building under
| the new officials when they step into office
| Some smart Alec on an evening paper re-
| Gently took wrong steer from Jim Burns
/ like q simple giliv, and yesterday made the
| thing more ridiculous by stating In all earn
| estneSS that the men named would decline
| to accept. The auditor-elect is understood
| to have practically decided on his assistants.
but the names will not be announced until
the first Of the year probably Burns has had
| the gall to decide on these men without CON
sulting Zollman or Keller, and they have
| taken exception to this action by filing
notice of contest E. C. Ives will
| probably retain most of the present force in
the abstract Office, and will devote his most
energetic efforts to making the Ramsey
county abstract office model of its kind.
| Register of Deeds Haas and Treasurer Nelson
will no doubt retain their present efficient
| forces with only incidental changes. Sheriff
| Chapel will introduce some new blood into
| the sheriff's Office but Charley Dana and
Deputy McCarron-the latter an old soldier
| and one of Chapels main pushers when he
! seemed to have little show for the nomina-
tion--will continue to be accommodating and
efficient in the county governor office.

| Tuesday, Dec. 13 has been designated as
Homestead day by the American Federation
| of Labor. The ST. Paul Trades and Labor as
| sembly has caught the spirit of the move, and
| President j. j. Ryan has appointed a COM
| mittee, with E. c. Ives abstract clerk elect.
| at its head, to arrange grand entertainment
at Market hall on that evening, to raise funds
| for the defense of the victims of Carnegie
and Frick 1t is proposed TO make this a
memorable occasion, and no effort will be
! withheld by the assembly committee in Its
endeavor to make the affair great success.
| The programme is now in preparation.

none of the other men will be. Hugh O'Don-
nelrs case will be the second to be tried
when court reconyenes.
