Mimi, registered at the Merchants last
evening, and announced to the clerk
that he was on his way to Washington
for the purpose OF calling on the presi-
dent and transactng various matters OF
business. TO GLOBE man he said:
II think the appointment of Judge
Gresham to the Office of secretary of
state was wise move on the pant OF
Mr.. Cleveland, and the selection is
an excellent one. While it is
said by many that the judge IS
Republican,, he has been in SYM
pathy with the Democratic party for
several years. There is no one who
will transact the business of the Office
in better and more efficient manner,
and the appointment was evidently
made for the benefit Of the people and
the government. | am glad to see that
old party lines, which have been drawn
so strictly heretofore, are being set aside
and men of merit, not of party, selected
Tor the positions of trust and response
bility. There can be no objection on
the pant of the people to the appoint
ment. and it will undoubtedly result in
benefit to the government"
q. B. Merrill, of Sioux City, To-, who
registered at the same hotel, and who is
a Republican, is OF the impression that
the appointment OF Mr.. Gresham is the
precursor of new era in politics.:
''Mr. Cleveland knows that he could
not be elected again." he said TO the
GLOBE man, land he has an idea for
the starting of new party before the
close of the four years term upon
which he will shortly enter. He has
made the appointment in the eXpecta-
ton that such an action will draw
to his side the strongest men from the
Republican party for the formation OF
the new one. Such a man as he las
shown himself to be realizes that the
time is near when the two present par
ties, | mean the Republican and Demo-
cratic, must be dissolved and new ones
spring up to take their places. The re-
cent actions of the public show that
demand will be made for different lines
before the close of the next presidential
term. and he is wisely making provision
for it,"
III. II. Hawkins, the Well-knOWn re-
cent candidate for lieutenant governor
of the state, was at the Windsor yeSter-
day. He was engaged Ill the pleasing
task of shaking hands with his numer-
Gus friends in st. Paul during the
greater portion of the day and in dis
cusSing the political situation.
II am on my way to Washington for
the purpose of tranSacting some i'm
pOrtant business and to attend the i'll
.augural ceremonies. 1t will undOubt-
eddy be one of the most interesting and
grandest ceremonies OF the kind seen III
ft,oT YrNtr taN 70.
will incidentally mention that tine city
of Carleton, situated about thirty miles
this side of the city of Duluth, is going
to be one of the best towns in that part
of the state before long. The place is
rapidly grOwng,a and i'll the spring there
will be a large number Of new buildings
and stores constructed. Many new peO-
pie are moving to the city, and the
farming land, of which there is a large
quantity in the immediate vicinity of
Carleton, is being rapidly taken up. We
will have a lively city i'll the course of
few years"
Judge Thomas, of the United States
court i'll Fargo, was in the city yester-
day and registered at the Merchants.
He spent the greater part of the even
ing in chasing to and from the union
depot for the purpose Of finding out
about train to take him out of the
city, as he was bothered by the snow.
The judge will attend the inaugural
ceremonies at Washington, and on his
trip he will be accompanied by his wife
and daughter.
