spent yesterday afternoon III the city, and
was kept busy for several hours extending
the freedom of the Stearus county capital to
his numerous friends who ha stoned to con-
graduate him on his victory. Although Mr.
Bruckart is Republican, he ran as an in
dependent candidate, and the voters did not
divide on party lines. st. Cloud is over
whelmingly Democratic, but in municipal
elections the voters pay but little attention
to party, as has been shown number of
times before. Three years ago Col. Wester-
man. Republican, was elected in contest
similar to that Of Monday last and the next
year was reelected without opposition. Last
year Mayor Guibler was elected, defeating
Mr.. Bruckart. This year the tables were
turned, and Mayor Guibler went down be-
fore the popular attorney. Mr.. Bruckart
was asked if the result OF the election would
make him a candidate for congressman or at
torney general.
Il am candidate for nothing in the way
of an Office" he said. laughingly. any
hands are filled with my own business, and
cannot afford to neglect it for any Office.
My majority was not large, but it was seven
more than enough, and for all purposes as
good as that many hundreds" s56

active part in politics. and before he came to
Minnesota was a prominent leader of the
Iowa Republican forces. In those days he
had as colaborer none other than the present
Democratic governor, Horace Boies. thena Re
publican. This acquaintance with Gov. Boies
made MIR. Bruckart an admirer of his legal
ability and high character, which he retains
10 the present time, although the former
Waterloo lawyer is now the leader of the
Iowa Democracy, and MIR. Bruckart does not
hesitate TO say that tine best candidate avail
able on the Democratic side is GOV. Boies.
Horace Boies,' he said enthusiastically,
sis the biggest and brainiest man mentioned
OH the Democratic side for the presidential
nomination. He is a broad gauged man of
great education and magnificent ability. He

If Congressman John Lind is a candidate
for the Republican gubernatorial nomination
he has peculiar way OF working the matter.
Yesterday his law partner, G.. Hagberg and
Senator ). d. Peterson came up from New
Ulm and spent the greater part of the day
talking with the politicians from all parts of
the state who gathered here in such great
numbers yesterday But neither of them
talked Lind for governor both stating that
they did not believe Mr.. Lind had any inten
ton of being a candidate for the nomina
ton.
From letters have SEEM said Mr. Hag-
berg, Il believe that Mr.. Lind has no idea or
intention of being a candidate for the Re
publican gubernatorial nomination"
THAT is also my opinion" said Senator
Peterson. 'Knute Nelson is clearly the
choice of the people in our part of the state,
and l believe he will be nominated. Lieut..
Gov Ives will be asked to make another run
for his present Office, as there is feeling
that he ought to be in the senate. Our ticket
will be Nelson and Ives"
