Democracy, but equally as important as
these classes there will be older heads
TO advise and give counsel. The first
Democratic candidate for governor, the
late honored and reyered Gen. Sibley,
will not be there, but the gallant young
leader Of the second state campaign,
Gen. George L. Becker. will occupy a
seat among the Ramsey delegation and
will be surrounded by such battle
Scared veterans as Hon. Robert y.
Smith. Judge Westcott WilkIn. Judge
Charles E. Flandrau, l.. E. Reed and
others who have grown old in the ser
vice of the party. From the state at
large will come Democrats like
John c. Wise. of Mankato; Col.
j. j. Thornton, of st. James;
Judge Wilson, of Winona; Senator
Sam p. Brown, of Mcleod: Senator
James McHale. of Scott; Judge Theo
Bruener, of Stearns, with more than
thirty other staunch representatives of
the Democracy of that banner county.
The Hennepin delegation will have
leaders of the renown of Mayor
Winston, Senator March, Senator
Phillips, and the veteran Frank Morse,
and. being the largest delegation in the
body. VIII command the influence it
deserves.
1t will be a great convention from
every point of view, and. while it will
certainly be lively at times, the out
come will be a ticket of undoubt-
ed strength, that will sweep
the state from Manitoba TO Iowa and
from the Dakotas to Wisconsin on the
east. There has Deen great deal of
talk in the Republican organs regarding
The convention and the differences of
sO-called leaders. TO those who know
the size of the convention and
The character of the men who
have been elected delegates, this talk is
senseless and even ridiculous. The
great Democratic party of Minnesota
will be in the saddle in tomorrow's con-
ventiOn, and the petty quarrels of old
leaders, if any such exist. will not be
considered. Success is III the air, and
this great convention will be made up
of men who have no axes to grind and
no states to put through.
For the gubernatorial nomination
several able gentlemen have been
named, with the chances in favor of the
nomination of Hon. Daniel w. LaWler.
of St. Paul, if he desires the honor No
canvass has been made in his behalf,
and the many counties that have in
Btructed for him have done it without
solicitation of any kind, and
in spontaneous manner that
implies recognition of his
fitness to lead the campaign. How
different the LaWler and the Nelson
campaigns. With no legions of office
holders to command. and no machine to
dictate, this young Hercules of SOON
to-be-triumphant Democracy has prac-
tically been rendered the highest honor
within the gift of his party.
As to other places on the ticket, there
may, and probably will be. more caudi-

of Blue Earth; Hon. John G. Brown, OF

one of whom will make first
