THEY'RE FOR WINSTON
The Delegates Chosen at the
Minneapolis Caueuses
Last Night.
they Will Be for Winston as
a Delegate at
Large.
c. NJ. Foote to Come in as One
Of the District Del
egates.
q Shadow Of a Fight Which
Very Few Seemed to
Understand.
The primaries are over.


They were Quck-with few isolated
exceptions.
On the face of the returns the con-
ventiOn that will meet next Tuesday
morning in Normanna hall will be over
Whelmingly Winston.
The primaries held last night were in
some respects the most peculiar ever
held by the Democrats in Minneapolis.
There was no we'll defined issue in the
premarieS. There was a fight on, but
it is only fair to say that the issue of
the fight was not clearly understood by
one man in ten who voted at the prim
aries A couple of weeks ago it was
given out that p. b. Winston and c. NJ.
Foote had formed combination
came to an agreement at last-On the
matter of delegates TO the national con-
Vention at Chicago. At the last moment
1t became evident that to the few who
take an active interest III the workings
of politics that there was a fight. The
FOOte men became convinced that if
they made no effort for their candidate
he would be left out in the cold
ut the convention. On the other
hand. the Winston adhereDts made up
their minds that the FOOte men did not
mean the fair thing. They feared that
If FOote were allowed to put his friend
III control of the county convention
Winston might be dropped entirely. So
both sides settled down to work. But,
as before stated, not one man out Of
every ten who went to the caucuses
knew that there was such fight for SUI
premacy. They believed. those of them
who gave the matter of delegates TO the
convention any thought, that the quasi
agreement between FOOte and Winston
held good. They voted accordingly.
The Winston tickets in almost every
precinct bore the name of Cleveland,
coupled with that of Winston. That
ticket always won. Leaving Mr.. FOOte
and Mr.. Winston entirely out of the
question, the result shows that Cleve-
land is the choice of the Minneapolis
Democrats for presidential nominee.
AS before stated, on the face of the
returns, Mr.. Winston will have big
majority in the convention. If this
fight that figured i'll some of the pre-
cincts last night does not crop out IN
the convention next Tuesday. the dele
gates TO st. Paul will probably De i'll
structed to support p. 3. Winston for
delegate at large to the national con-
VentiOn. and c. NJ. FOote as one of the
district delegates. That is manifeStly
the way the majority of the voters want
the convention to 90. Should this
personal fight crop out in the cOnven-
ton there is no telling what may hap
pen. When it comes to settling per-
sOnal fights in the county convention,
if such condition should arise, it will
be found that there is large indie
pendent representation in the c0nven-
ton that will feel disposed to summarily
put Quietus upon any personal SQUAD
bling. The indications point to quiet,
Harmonious convention, with POSSIBLE
ity of a few little skirmiSheS over con-
tested delegations. The matter of a
second district delegate to Chicago,
aside from FOote. will be settled in the
convention. Any one of half dozen
Etaunch Democratic is possibility.

Fourth Ward.
Thisy ward went for Winston, too.
None of the delegates were instructed.
and most Of them are somewhat indie
pendent. There was lively scrap in
the Thirteenth precinct. Howe Paige,
the Cleveland club. leader, and F. G.
Holbrook, the mayors secretary, headed
rival factions. Paige delayed the OPEN
ing of the caucus until after o'clock,
against the wishes of Holbrook and his
friends. When the caucus finally
organized with Holbrook as chairman
and NJ. j. Meyrowitz as Secretary. Hol-
brook declined to T0C0pnize the instruc-
tlonS from the county committee, calling
