Intentions.

BuZZARD's BAY, Mass, Sept. 2S.-
The first man to greet Grover Cleveland
with a printed copy of his letter of ac
ceptance was Col ID. f. Allen, of
Frankfort, Ind, member of the Indiana
state committee. Capt. Allen is taking
a roundabout way homeward from the
Washington encampment. He has
something which he considered vitality
important to say to the sage of Gray
Gables, and Lieut.. Gov. Sheehan
thought SO, too, for he told the Indiana
committeeman to come right on TO Gray
Gables and tell it to Mr.. Cleveland in
person.
Capt: Allen walked over to the Gables
and was warmly greeted by Mr.. Cleve-
land. He enjoyed long talk with the
eX-president and expressed his satisfac-
ton with his letter of acceptance, bar
ring one small point. lie did not like
the word actually" in the paragraph
relating to pensiOning soldiers. He went
further, and requested Mr. Cleveland to
explain more fully his position toward
the soldiers ami to aid i'll bringing out
the soldier vote for the Democratic
ticket all over the land. Mr.. Cleveland
every soldier who received so much as
scratch i'll the war, and went over the
ground in detail with the Indiana COM
mltteeman.
a Friend of the Soldier.
Capt. Allen came away highly elated
with his call, gratified with his recep-
ton and confident that his presentation
of the soldiers case would result in
great advantage 10 the party in general
and to Mr.. Cleveland in particular. He
says that he found in the course of his
discussion with Mr.. Cleveland that the
latter is the friend of the soldier,
honestly and actually, but he thinks
that the nominee is not fully aware of
the manner in which opposition critics
and eXacting veterans will seek to dis
tort and to find innuendOes in his treat
ment of the pension question in his let
ter OF acceptance.
Mr.. Cleveland SAID last evening: 81

ton to visit Woburn, Mass, on the oc-
casion of the fftieth anniversary of the
founding of that city, owing to engage
ments which could not be set aside.

ATTEND THE PRIMARIES.

Monday next the Democratic prna-
TieS will be held for the election of dele
gates to the county and legislative con-
ventions. On the day following the
conventions themselves will be held.
If the Democracy is to get out its best
strength on the Sth of Move mber, it
must be helped by local ticket COM
posed of clean. able. honorable men.
Any other sort of candidates will handi-
cap the party in its battle.
The GLOBE appeals to every Demo-
crat in Ramsey county who cares for
the welfare IF the State and the success
of the Democracy to attend the prma-
Ties.
If the primaries have been farce in
the past. 1t is the fault of those who
have neglected them. The presence of
honest, respected and earnest citizens
will discourage and dscOuntenance
those who would stife the free express
sion of the popular will on such occa-
sions.
The GLOBE raises voice of warning
against the selection of weak or i'm
proper county Or legislative ticket.
Such one will be defeated, and will
deserve to be.
The GLOBE promises its support to no
man of doubtful reputation, and to no
man whose capacity is not equal to the
duties of the Office to which he aspres.
Il will not support the unfit. even if
Ehey are Democrats. Let the best men
be nominated.
