HE'S ALL RIGHT.

Since the nominating convention
held in Mankato some weeks ago rum
ors have been rife that Hon. T. M.
Pugh was "sore," that he had declar-
ed his purpose to "cut" portions of
the Republican ticket, and other roor-
backs of a similar character. All
such statements are false. Mr.. Pugh
is one of the old time Republicans
who helped to organize the party in
Blue Earth county in '56. He has
been a consistent Republican ever
since, and to FREE PRESS reporter
today said that he should support his
party ticket this year with the same
loyalty that he always had in the
past. For the past ten days he has
been at work for the success of the
party and will continue until the polls
close on Nov. 8th. The true Republi-
canism Of Welshmen is always notice
able when the ballots are counted,
and there are especial reasons to be-
lieve that the present year will find
them loyal to the core. The Third
district may be looked to to furnish
its old time Republican majority for
the straight ticket.
Pugh is all right.

DEATH OF DIR. WICKERSHAM.

DIR. NJ. r. Wickersham passed away
Wednesday between four and
five o'clock, at his residence, 601 Byron
street. He had been sick but a week,
and the disease which took him off
was peumonia. Very few knew of
his illness until the sad announce
ment of his death. He was IS years
of age.
The deceased was one of the early
settlers in the city. He located here
in 1856 and lived in a house set back
from the street where now the First
National Bank stands. He engaged
in the drug business, and also prac-
tlced medicine for time. He after
wards gave up both, and for years had
devoted his time to his
garden and vineyard on S. Byron
street. He was quiet gentleman
unassuming, and was well liked by
all who knew him. He was Mason
but not member of the local lodge
His wife died two years ago. Foul
children survive him, E. c. Wicker
sham, Price Wickersham, Mrs. J. t
Williams and Miss Sarah Wickersham

THE COUNTY TICKET.

Wednesday was the last day to make
any changes in the county ticket,
either by filing certificates or making
Withdrawals.
The Republicans will have no can
didate on the ticket for the Office of
coronor,as the nominee of the conven-
tion failed to put up the necessary X.
James Shoemaker, who received both
the Democratic and Populist nominal
tions, put up the fee only on the
strength of the Democratic nomina-
ton, as he undoubtedly has sure
thing on the election. The Republi-
cans can write in any name that they
choose in the blank space.
P. A. Larson, Democratic candidate
for county commissioner, also paid
his fee only for the Democratic nom
lnation and not for the Peoples party.
These are the only changes which oc-
cur on the ticket.
The candidates for county commits
sioner will appear on the ballots on
ly in the districts in which they are
nominated. The city tickets and
those for the fourth district will have
no reference to county commissioners.
The auditor has given the contract
for printing the ballots, which will be
blue in color, to the Reuieau, and for
printing the wOmen's ballots for coun-
ty superintendent to the Journal
This is probably in recompense for
services rendered. Had bids been
asked for, the county would have
saved from $50 to $50. There are to
be Is. 400 Of each kind Of ticket.

TERRIBLY BURNED.

Mrs. Warner, mother of DR.. c. f.
Warner, suffered terrible injury We'd
nesday while in her room at her sons
residence. Shortly after seven o'clock
she rushed out Of the room with her
clothing ablaZe. A blanket was
thrown over her by those present and
the fire was extinguished, but not be-
fore she had received awful injuries.
Her entire left side was burned from
the waist upward, including the arm.
The flesh has peeled off. The lady is
o3 years of age, which fact renders it
very uncertain whether she can re-
cover. She has been sleeping a large
part of the time since the injury was
received, and scarcely knows that
she is burned, though the pain must
be intense.
1t will probably never be known
how the accident happened, as Mrs.
Warner is unable to give any informa-
tion on the subject. There are no in
dications of the lamp having exploded
and nothing in the room was burned.
1t is thought that possibly the lamp
was upset against her.
This afternoon the unfortunate
lady is sleeping and resting easily.

THE COUNTY TICKET.
The Democrats Will Head the Ticket
= POpulists Second, Republi-
cans Third.

The position of the various polit.
ical parties on the county ticket was
determined by lot this morning, in
accordance with the provisions of the
law. The drawing was conducted in
the office of the county auditor with
all the attendant ceremonies. Under
the law the names of all the candi-
dates must appear on one ballot, and
as the voter must mark cross oppo-
site the name of every candidate for
whom he desires to vote it is believed
by some that the party which appears
first on the ballot has some advan-
tage over its rivals on account of the
change in the method of voting.
County Auditor Randall had an
nounced that the drawing would be
done by him in the presence of the
chairman of each county committee
at nine O'Clock. Half an hour after
that time all were present except the
chairman of the Republican commit
tee, and two Republicans present rep
resented him. Chairman Robel, Of the
Democratic committee, chairman
Morrison, of the Peoples party COM
mittee, and E. Austin, of the Prohi.
bition committee, were present, be-
sides several of the candidates. AT
ter several plans had been suggested,
Clerk of Court Thorne got his jury
box and the game began. The repre-
sentative of each party was given a
slip Of paper, all being of equal size,
and each wrote the name of his party
on the slip and placed it in the box.
Mr.. Randall announced that he would
draw out one at time and the order
on the ballot would correspond with
the order in which the names were
drawn out of the box. Mr.. Thorne
shook the box well. Mr.. Randall
backed up to the box and reached one
hand back and took out slip. The
little group crowded close and held
their breaths while the paper was
scrutinized. A seraphic smile fitted
over Mr.. Randall's countenance as be
read the name on the ticket. Instinc-
lively Messrs. .Glynn, Hughes and Ady
drew a sigh of relief, and then the
name Democratic" was read. Again
Mr.. Randall's hand went into the box
and the slip that he brought out bore
the words peoples party" Then
came the slips labelled Republican
and. "Prohibition", in succession. The
Democratic candidates went out feel
ing jubilant. There was much specula'
tion as to how much difference,if any
the result o. the drawing would make
in the votes cast. As matter OF
fact, however, it is not at all likely
that the Democrats will gain any
votes, or the Republicans lose any,
as the voters of this county are too in
telligent to make such mistake in
voting

Chamber OF Commerce C0mmends q
Business PrOposition-An Offer.
David B. Porter appeared before the
Chamber Of Commerce yesterday with a
proposition to establish tinware manu-
factory here. Edgar III. Loyhed sub
scribes his stock Of hardware. worth STA
600; Mr.. Porter and Capt. F. A. Hill
subscribe s., 600 each in cash, and subscrip-
tlons for $4,000 more are wanted, the
latter to be used as working capital. On
motion of Jacob Earth, it was resolved as
follows:
We are satisfied from our investigation that
the enterprise will prove a profitable one, and
we commend the stock TO investors.
John Leary and Jacob Furth subscribed
for some of the stock. According to Mr..
Porter's calculations, tin plate can be laid
down here cents per box cheaper than at
st. Louis and only cents higher than at
Chicago, and thus for all the Coast coun-
try the advantage in freight will be in favor
of this city.
Some time ago Capt. Richard Chilcott,
of Barneson & Chilcott, stevedores at Port
Blakeley and Port Townsend. called the
attention of President T.. o. Graves to a
newspaper notice of the alleged intention
of the Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union, of Colfax, to build big elevator on
the Sound. President Graves Immediately
wrote to the alliance. saying:
Capt Chilcott authorizes me- to say that he
will guarantee TO supply vessels to carry wheat
TO Europe for 2shiilings less per ton than going
rates on the Columbia river. We can undoubt-
eddy furnish you with a desirable site on our
seven miles of water front, with tracks from
both the Great Northern and Northern Pacific
railways. The rate on wheat from Eastern
Washington TO Seattle will always be as low as
to any other point on the Coast, and Seattle is
tweuly-seven miles nearer the ocean than Ia
coma. In addition to the above advantages, we
shall within few years be able to fu.n ish you
a free site on q great fresh water hsrbor. Our
proposition now is that for a business of con-
siderable magnitude we will furnish you q free
cite on our salt water front, and " asn the Lake
Washington canal is built We will also secure
you free site on the fresh water from.
At the meeting of the trustees Of the

KENT MUST PAY UP.
Ordered to Hand Over the Tony
Miller Reward Fund.
HE WANTED TO KEEP DIT HIMSELF
Police Commissioners Bring the Alb
sorbent Treasurer to Book
Three Policemen Dropped.

At the meeting of the police commits
sion last night officer A. NJ. Kent was
called to account for the money he holds
in trust for the Police Relief Association.
Kent read a long statement to show that
he had made himself responsible for the
expenses of the entertainment given to
raise reward for the capture of Tony
Miller. He claimed that the force had
nothing to do with it, and, in case Miller
was not captured inside Of two years
from the time the fund was raised,
the money, he considered, would revert
TO him. The two years expired on
November l. and the other members of the
force claim that the money reverts to the
relief fund.
Lieut.. Hanna and Officers Sam Corbett.
Philbrick and Cummings stated that the
patrolmen sold tickets for the entertain
ment with that understanding, and Kent,
before being appointed to the force the
last time, promised to turn it over when
the two years expired, but afterwards
refused to do SO. Mayor Ronald said Kent
had made similar promise to him before
his appointment.
The board decided that Kent would have
to turn the money over to the trustees of
the relief association. and directed him to
make such arrangements for the payment
OF it as might be satisfactory to them.
Chief Jackson recommended that PATROL
men w. H. Murphy, T. d. Ellis and H. NJ.
Reed be dropped from the roll after De-
cember 1. He said Murphy was physi-
cally incapacitated; Ellis was "a years of
age and had family in the East, and he
thought it would be better to have patrol
men whose families resided in the city:
and Reed was not up to the standard in
point of efficiency. The recommendation
was approved.
Another recommendation made by the
chief was adopted, establishing rule that
drivers. clerks and jailers should be ap-
pointed especially for their fitness, with
out regard to their stature, age or weight.
The chief further recommended that c. A.
Spriggs and J. B. Brooks be appointed
jailers, W. III. Moore and T. B. Johnson
drivers and William Kierski clerk and
bookkeeper
The report of Chief Jackson for the
month of October was read and filed.
Douglas Young submitted proposition
to start perfect system of accounts and
records for the department and the munic-
ipal court for $50; referred to commit
tee consisting of Holmes and Cheasty.
Detective Roberts asked to be paid his
regular salary for the time he was laid up
sick, from October % to the present time.
The request was refused, only Marion and
Holmes voting In the affirmative.
Mayor Ronald said he had conferred
special police power on 7. J. Vivian, in
spector and appraiser for the water depart
ment, as it was claimed to be necessary
sometimes in order to gain admittance for
the inspection of buildings in which water
was being used. The board considered it
unnecessary and refused to concur.
