alive of the Democrats of the Ninth judicial
district on the Democratic state committee
passed through ST. Paul last evening on his
way to Duluth, where he will spend several
days looking after his business interests. He
will return 10 st. Paul Monday, and remain
for the meeting of the state committee Tues
day. Mr. Mullen is one of the staunchest
Democrats in the Second district. and had
much to do with the work that resulted in
changing Brown county from the Republican
to the Democratic column. He is a good or
ganizer, and believes in managing cam
paign as he does his own business. He is
strong advocate of the denomination of ex-
President Cleveland believing him the strong
est man the party can select to lead in the
coming great contest.
NO one else is mentioned in our part of
the state" said Mr.. Mullen last evening land
am firmly of the opinion that Mr. Cleveland
is the only man who should be considered at
this time. With him there is no doubt of our
ability to win
do you favor an early convention for the
selection of delegates to the Chicago conyen-
tion?''
That depends" replied the committee
man, ''if they persist IN their call for mid
winter convention in New York. l see no
reason why we should wait until summer to
hold our convention. 1 have no doubt, how
ever, that the state committee will fix upon
date that will be satisfactory to the Demo
Gratis of the state at the coming meeting and
l shall not decide the matter in nv mind
until l have conferred with the other men,

c. w. Kelly, of Devils Lake. Joined the
North Dakota colony at the Merchants yes
terday. Upon his arrival he was taken in
hand by Secretary of State John Flittie and
Commissioner of Agriculture Helgeson and
shown around the city. Mr.. Kelly is one of
merchants of Devils Lake, and has been one
of the followers of Senator Hansbrough. In
addition to carrying on his mercantile bust
ness last year Mr.. Kelly carried on large
farm near Deyirs Lake. and is enthusiastic
over the crop he harvested.
II had the satisfaction of threshing
crop, he said, that averaged forty-tiye BUSH
els to the acre, nearly all of which graded
No. 1 hard. This. too. was grown on
land near the lake, which is not considered as
rich as that farther away. It's proximity to
the lake. however, saved it from damage by
frost Our crop was great one. and had il
all been threshed our farmers would be in
splendid shape. Hardly half of it has been
threshed so far, and there is considerable
oulcuut Ill tIlC SIiOCk WHICH Is being
by antelope and rabbits. This reminds me
that antelope are more numerous in that part
of North Dakota this year than they have
been since the country was first settled. Al
though the law prohibits the killing of ante
lope at this season of the year a great deal of
1t is being done. The snow is very deep and
dogs are used to run them down Then
again the farmers, who are standing guard
over their wheat with guns in hand, are

II understand the colonel is buying great
deal of land and is promising ID place settlers

pie are glad to see this sort of move,and we
hope for great results

Judge Thomas Wilson, of Winona, arrived
in St Paul yesterday and spent the day at
tending to some legal business Judge VIII
son was one of the leading supporters of
Judge William Mitchell for the position on
the bench OF the new court of appeals to
which Hon. W. Fl. Sanborn, of this city, has
been appointed. Judge Wilson went to
Washington and urged the appointment of
his friend in person, and there is every rea-
son to believe that had it not been for the
Woods matter, where President Harrison felt
he needed the support of Senator Davis,
Judge Mitchell would have been named in
stead of Mr.. Sanborn. Judge Wilson, how
ever. Is not a man TO show any disappoint-
ment, aud when he was asked last evening
what he thought of Mr.. Sanborn's appoint
ment he said;
Il understand Mr.. Sanborn is an able at
torney. and have no doubt he will make
most excellent judge
